Long before the periodic table, alchemists counted seven metals and matched each to one of the seven moving lights in the sky: gold to the Sun, silver to the Moon, quicksilver to Mercury, copper to Venus, iron to Mars, tin to Jupiter, and lead to Saturn. A talisman that gathers all seven is a talisman of the whole heavens at once, the full sweep of planetary influence held in one small disc. This one is about half an inch. Wear it when you want every planet on your side, and let the seven metals stand for a balanced, complete sky. Key Features of the 7 Metals Amulet Talisman The seven planetary metals.

Product Details Size: approximately 1/2 inch Material: cast metal, set with pyrite Wearable as a pendant or carried Sold individually The Spiritual Significance The seven-metal, seven-planet correspondence is one of the foundations of Western alchemy and astrology. Each classical planet was thought to rule a metal and to lend it its character: the Sun's gold for vitality and success, the Moon's silver for intuition, Mercury's quicksilver for mind and exchange, Venus's copper for love, Mars's iron for strength and courage, Jupiter's tin for expansion and luck, and Saturn's lead for structure and limits. To work with all seven together is to invoke the entire planetary system rather than a single force. That is what makes this a talisman of balance and completeness. Where a single planetary charm leans hard in one direction, the seven metals aim at wholeness, the well-rounded sky in which no influence is missing and none overwhelms. The pyrite often set with these pieces adds a note of will and abundance, the bright fool's-gold shine long tied to the Sun. Worn as a focus, it is a reminder that a full life draws on every planet in turn. How To Use the 7 Metals Amulet Talisman Cleanse it on arrival with smoke, moonlight, or sound.
