About Astrological Magic Talismans

Astrological talismans are created during a window of time where the astrological conditions support the creation of a talisman. These windows can occur around 3-5 times a year, but it varies widely.

Talismans should be considered tools to aid contact with angelic spirits of specific planets and stars. The talisman’s words and imagery request specific boons from said spirits. The spirits provide the assistance as they see fit, not the talisman itself.

To receive the full benefit of your talisman, you should perform a consecration, which is a fairly short and simple ritual action. Instructions for consecration will be included with your talisman.

I make my paper talisman on 80lb cardstock using a printer and paper cutter tool. “Laminated” talismans are coated in clear packing tape, nothing too fancy.

When creating astrologically-timed talismans, speed is the name of the game. I have to fully create and consecrate the talismans in a short window of time, usually between 20-45 minutes windows, that occur fairly rarely. In that time, I make and consecrate as many talismans as I can. Coating a talisman with tape takes about four times the amount of time as an uncoated talisman takes but helps the talismans last longer.

No refunds on paper astrological talismans.

Due to the nature of magical items like astrological talismans, I cannot guarantee any particular results or effects. These talismans are ultimately entertainment items that you purchase at your own risk.

I also cannot in good conscience reuse or resell a talisman that has been returned, and so I do not take returns on talismans.

Paper talismans are shipped in a letter envelope alongside an info sheet. Shipping is free, even internationally.

Info Sheet: All talismans are shipped with an information sheet. This sheet includes information on the talisman, how to consecrate it, and the additional tools you may need for the consecration.

Please contact me by email if you experience any issues with shipping or do not receive your talisman in a timely manner.

You will need some additional materials to consecrate your talisman and maximize its effect on your life. The ritual words will be included with your talisman info sheet.

Tools: A candle and lighter, incense and holder, and an altar cloth.

Traditionally these are done in a specific color, use a specific number of colored candles, and a specific scent of incense. I nearly always use only one white candle and match my altar cloth color to the specified color, and I use one of the traditionally recommended incenses.

If you think you may purchase multiple talismans and don’t want to own so many unique items, you could purchase one white candle, one white altar cloth, and use my recommended universal incense, frankincense. Mugwort is also the most frequently recommended incense in the medieval sources.

Generally speaking, planetary talismans (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn) are only recommended when that planet is not afflicted in your natal chart. If it is afflicted, it is recommended to choose a fixed star talisman that accomplishes a similar job.

For example, the Sun talisman is not recommended for people with Sun in Libra or Aquarius. For those people, a Fixed Star Regulus Talisman could be appropriate instead.

Feel free to send me an email (at sangastrology@proton.me) with your birth details if you like me to recommend some talismans for you. Birth details are date of birth, location of birth, and time of birth, if available.

I recommend checking a system of divination to see if a specific talisman could be helpful for you. If your intuition or divination says a talisman will work for you, I’d use that to override the basic astrological reasoning above.

What are systems of divination? Tarot, channeling, the IChing, runes, etc. If you have a system you already use, use that.

You can try a free digital IChing reading from https://www.onlineclarity.co.uk/reading/free-online-i-ching/ if you do not already have a divination system. Phrase your question like, “What will happen if I use this talisman?” or “What could this talisman do for me?” Yes-or-no questions are not as recommended with IChing divination.

Since I do not have all astrological talismans available at all times, you can try other sellers, too.

I learned to make talismans from Christopher Warnock’s books Fixed Star, Sign & Constellation Magic and Secrets of Planetary Magic. These books reference writings of medieval renaissance astrological magic, such as the writings of Cornelius Agrippa, the Bodleian manuscript, and the Picatrix. You can purchase these books for yourself on Amazon.com and learn to make talismans.

You can purchase talismans, mostly cast in bronze, from Christopher Warnock at his site https://www.renaissanceastrology.com. These high quality talismans are usually priced between $300-500. I see my own paper talismans as a more accessible option.
