Count Cagliostro's Magic Cross Pentacle Talisman by ALCHEMY GOTHIC

handcrafted by Alchemy Gothic in the UK

Count Cagliostro's Magic Cross is an elaborate, two part, two - tone jewel pendant adorned with 5 pentacles and ten Austrian crystals.

The celebrated Italian Catholic occultist, Count Cagliostro, was known as "the last of the magicians."

The symbolism of the cross is ancient. It has long been regarded as a symbol of earthly authority and many would be surprised to learn the the cross was originally considered to be a pagan symbol by the Christian forefathers. Here it is combined with the pentacle to create a very significant and occult talisman.

The pentacle is an ancient astro-alchemical hieroglyph that is one of the most misunderstood of universal symbols. This five-pointed star's origin reaches back 1000's of years in Mesoptomania and was a graphical measurement of the astrological conjuctions of the Sun and Venus. Imbued with esoteric qualities, the pentagram represents the morning star phase of the planet Venus.

It is also believed that the pentagram was the original device central to the Seal of Solomon. Although many interpretations exist for this mystical star, Alchemists view the five points as spirit, air, fire, water, and earth. The endless, interwoven sides of the pentagram represents continuity and eternity as it binds evil forces in order to bring harmony, peace, and luck. The pentacle often appears with the protective circle around it.
