Picatrix Mirror of the Seven Winds
NOTA BENE:
I am accepting pre-orders now through the January 30th, 2026, and they will ship after February 18th due to the Jupiter/Venus-Moon Conjunction Requirements.
“And this is the experiment of one called Ptolemy of Babel, and three Indian wise men in Egypt discovered it, and they determined that such a mirror should be made when the Moon conjoined Jupiter and then gilded or cleaned when the Moon conjoined Venus.
“And as soon as you suffumigate it, you may command the winds as you wish and your wishes will be done. Watch it, and you will know all the things that I have said to you, for you will have power over winds, men and demons, and they will do as you wish. When you are purified and clean, call them and they will come to you obediently. And this should be done over a shallow basin full of water, or over a vase similarly clean, full of water. And thereupon you will see, and what you seek will be fulfilled.” – Picatrix Bk IV, ch. 7 (Translation by John Michael Greer & Christopher Warnock, Esq)
I just finished my proof of concept, and I think it turned out great.
I’ve been making variations of this mirror off and on for years, and I think this is the most authentic-to-the-text version yet.
The instructions say to put the names of the winds in an outer circle, the names and symbols of the planets in the middle circle, and “Then, within the polished and gilded circle are written the names of these seven angels: Captiel, Satquiel, Samael, Raphael, Anael, Michael, Gabriel.”
I’m interpreting this to mean that I can engrave the winds and the planets in wood, as a frame, and engrave the silver disc (the “polished circle”) when Jupiter is conjunct the Moon, and then gild the scrying part in the center in gold with the electroplating kit when Venus conjoins the Moon.
I really like how it’s turned out. The silver disc is 1.5″ (38mm) sterling silver, and the gold is 24kt plating. I am thinking I will gild the center of the mirrors in gold and leave the outer rim silver for the solar/lunar effect.
The next Jupiter-Moon conjunction is January 30-31, with the following Venus-Moon conjunction February 17-18th.
I am accepting pre-orders now through the 30th, and they will ship after February 18th.
