Solomonic Pentacles with Peter Von Leykamm & Vincent V. Saint-Roch

For online attendance only. If you are interested in purchasing the In-Person General Admission Ticket click HERE

The Key of Solomon presents us with planetary magic in the form of forty-four pentacles, each offering uses ranging from making one more attractive, to success in negotiations, to protection from imprisonment.  However, the Key gives little detail about the principles behind the pentacles—how they work, and how to work them—pr where they come from and how they were made. This class is based on a series of workings that engaged with the pentacles as spirits, culminating in the development of a method to create new pentacles. This method enables you to design a pentacle which serves as a contact point for a spirit towards a specific set of sorcerous ends 

In this class, the presenters will discuss their work with the pentacles, giving general techniques for working with canonical pentacles, and specific workings we have developed. We will also give instructions for creating new pentacles for bespoke purposes, and give examples of several pentacles we have created (e.g. for building community, creating healthy boundaries, and unionizing workplaces). By the end of the class, participants will have knowledge and tools for working with the pentacles in The Key of Solomon and for making and inspiriting their own pentacles, either through their own spirit working practices or through use of a pentacle for inspiriting pentacles.
