MAGIC
MAGIC begins with the Knowledge of PANTACLES, TALISMAN and PERFUME.
The PANTACLE is made in a metal fit to receive the shock of the Astral Plane.
All Magic is made in the Mental or Sub-Lunar Plane. But at times there is force we can’t control, and we need a Pantacle to protect ourselves.
The 1st is the Pythagorean Pantacle, made from a polygon of five sides, ie a pentagon, (pantagon).

The 2nd is tha Star of David, which, with additions, is the Seal of Solomon.
This is made from a Hexagon.

For protection when making Magic we need these two Pantacles raised in LEAD thus: (for the force returning from SATURN is terrific).
Join these two Symbols by Cord, 5 Star in front, 6 Star at back. This is the origin of the SCAPULAR of the R.C. Church.
Sun-plexus = 5 points
Sacro-plexus = 6 points
Special Room in the Sanctuary:
A: Wardrobe
B: Protection Circle
C: Little table with instruments: sword stick, etc.
D: [...]* (pulpit). Book of Magic formulas.

This shows position of elements on the Altar. Note that FIRE is doubled. When Fire is doubled the Magic is only for materialistic things: ie 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, etc.
For Spiritual things then only ONE candle, and 3, 5, 7, 9, etc., for bigger ceremonies.
