Date: Sat, 19 Feb 2000 16:56:24 -0800 And what are a few ways i >can make a talisman to do different things like protect, heal, give good >luck, etc..... > there are numerous ways to make a talisman, and often there is disagreement as to what the difference between a talisman and an amulet. the way i've come to understand it, is that a talisman is incribed with words or symbols representing the goal. an amulet is a natural or man-made object representing the goal, such as a st. lazarus crutch or a holed stone. if you have jewelry-making or metalworking skills, then the you are only restricted by your imagination, and possibly traditional correspondences. i used discs of wood and a wood-burner when making my talismans, but one of the most popular ways is to inscribe them with colored inks on parchment paper. popular talismans are copied from the _key of solomon_, the _goetia_, and _the black pullet_ - these you can usually buy cast in pewter from occult suppliers such as azure green, or miller's in atlanta. a popular way to make individualized talismans is to use sigils, either constructed by using planetary squares, or by the spare method. check out the llewellyn book _practical sigil magick_ by frater u:.d:. - i think it's still in print. for amulets, you can use found objects or store-bought jewelry, or make something yourself to represent the goal (for example, the wax foot i made when my mom had a staph infection and was in danger of losing her _real_ foot.) and concecrate that. natural objects - stones, feathers, seashells, etc. often have their own energy, but it's still a good idea to consecrate them, and get that energy focused on your goal. never thirst, blackbriar * Sent from RemarQ http://www.remarq.com The Internet's Discussion Network * The fastest and easiest way to search and participate in Usenet - Free!
