The Seventh and Last Pentacle of Saturn
This Pentacle is fit for exciting earthquakes, seeing that the power of each order of Angels herein invoked is sufficient to make the whole Universe tremble.
The Key of Solomon is the best known of the Renaissance grimoires, surviving in dozens of manuscripts in Latin, French, Italian and Hebrew. Mathers made his 1889 edition from seven manuscripts in the British Museum, and it is his plates that every later reproduction of these pentacles descends from.
The Key of Solomon the King (Clavicula Salomonis), translated and edited by S. Liddell MacGregor Mathers (London: George Redway, 1889). The text and the pentacles are in the public domain.
The pentacle is traced from the plate in the De Laurence edition of 1914 (Chicago: De Laurence, Scott & Co.), which reprints Mathers' plates at a larger size, and checked line for line against the 1889 printing.
Mathers' note: Within the Pentacle are the Names of the Nine Orders of Angels, those of six of them in ordinary Hebrew Characters, and the remainder in the letters which are known as “The Passing of the River.” These Nine Orders are:—-1. CualotH Ha-Qapescu, Holy Living Creatures; 2. AUPHANIM, Whieels; 3. ARaLim, Thrones; 4. CHascHMALIM, Brilliant Ones; 5. SERAPHIM, Fiery Ones; 6. Mevaxim, Kings; 7. ELtonim, Gods; PLATE 11. ca 7. isieluk 8. Bent ELoui, Sons of the Elohim; 9. Kerusim, Kerubim. The versicle is from Psalm xviii. 7:—“'Then the earth shook and trembled, the founda- tions of the hills also moved and were shaken, because He was wroth.”
