What does the Moon's magic square mean?

The Moon's magic square is a numerical table of 9 cells by 9, incorporated by Agrippa into his planetary magic. The numbers are arranged so that each row, each column, and the two main diagonals add up to 369. The total is 3321. Agrippa connects this structure to sacred names, planetary powers, and the seal of the Moon.

Why is this grid called magical?

The arrangement preserves an identical sum along the grid's main axes. Agrippa incorporates this mathematical property into a cosmology in which each planet has its sacred table.

The square thus becomes a structure of correspondences rather than a simple calculation table.

What place does the Moon occupy among the seven tables?

The seven kameas progress from Saturn's 3 × 3 to the Moon's 9 × 9. The Moon occupies the seventh and final position in this series.

Changing the order modifies the number of cells, the constant, and the numerical values associated with the planet.

How do numbers meet sacred names?

Agrippa associates divine and spiritual names with the table's characteristic values. This interpretation is based on numerical correspondences applied to letters.

The kamea thus becomes a link between arithmetic, sacred language, and planetary hierarchy.

How does the table produce a planetary character?

The magical seal of the Moon is presented as derived from this table. The characters of the planetary intelligence and spirit are given separately.

The astrological glyph should not be confused with these talismanic constructions.

What does the Moon's kamea represent in occultism?

In Agrippa's system, the table serves to numerically establish the planet's qualities: travel, favor, protection, movement, and reception.

Later Hermetic traditions reuse these grids to create seals, talismans, and sigils based on sequences of numbers or letters.
