Mars-Jupiter Talismans
Mars-Jupiter in Aries Talismans (Standard)
Modeled in hard carver’s wax, and Cast in 90/10 Electrum [silver and gold] with iron firescale and calcined salts of hawthorn, and frankincense. Casting was accompanied by suffumigation of cayenne and frankincense.
The image of Mars with resolute visage, modeled after depictions of Alexander the Great with the ram’s horns of Jupiter-Ammon. During his military campaign through Egypt, Alexander encountered the Oracle of Amun at the Siwa Oasis. The oracle, functioning as the conduit for the deity, hailed Alexander as the son of Jupiter-Amun, affirming his divine status and legitimizing his rule over Egypt. In gratitude and to solidify his divine connection, Alexander adopted the symbol of the ram’s horns, an attribute of Jupiter-Ammon, into his iconography. Images of Jupiter-Ammon were later erected in the Temple of Mars Ultor [Mars the Avenger] in Rome. The image of Mars, with features reminiscent of Alexander’s divine imagery underscore martial prowess exalted by jupiterian divine mandate.
The other side takes the image of an Elephant, associated with mars in book II, chapter X of Pixatrix on the image of Mars. Engraved beneath its great head are the astral sigils of Mars from arabic manuscript of the Ghayat al-Hakim. Each side of the talisman is set with a 2.5 carat amethyst cabochon, a gem associated with mars in book I, chapter XXVII “What things are under the power of Mars.” and commonly associated with jupiter in contemporary lists of planetary gemstones.

Mr. Mack's preliminary findings —The Sol in Leo talismans made space for a number of bird of prey synchronicities, beginning with a pair of hawks (the animal totem for the Sol in Leo series, featured upon The Golden Sovereign label) driving crows over my home in the morning hours following the casting (a scene which the talismans had a view of as they lay in a brass bowl under the sunlight post-casting).
My most immediate, embodied experience of the talismans was an awareness and correction of my breathing; which in turn reoriented my attention, put a bit more light behind my eyes and elevated my present experience - rather obvious; though I’d been unconsciously running on shallow breath, and I’d receive a nudge until this was remediated as I proceeded putting the finishing work/stone setting to the talismans.
In the days following the election I was contacted by a handful of clients, some familiar and some new acquaintances regarding not-explicitly-astrological metalwork; each of their projects connected either directly or indirectly to the Egyptian Horus. I'm thrilled with my experience with the Sol in Leo’s while they were at my bench, as well as with the opportunities that have presented themselves in their wake...

Each comes with a 20” silver chain and arrives in a gold foiled and latched pendant box, marked by a golden wax seal featuring a Sun in Leo glyph for easy identification.
