Two triangles meet around the sacred name. Julio sees in it a relationship between the greater universe and the person, the Creator and His creatures.
Read the symbolism
The note discusses the macrocosm and microcosm and identifies the name IÉVE at the center. The small triangles bear Adonai. The alpha and omega refer to the beginning and the end. The inscription develops the theme of God as the source of salvation.
The attributed effects
Julio assigns the sign an application in grave danger, despair, abandonment, and destitution. The text gives particular importance to the plea for help when a person feels deprived of support.
Julio’s use
Adonai is understood as a supplication aid prepared according to the practical advice in the work: blessing, consecration, and prayer. The note does not provide any planetary correspondence to apply to the two triangles.
A personal reading
For a personal reading, look at the meeting point of the two triangles and the center they share. You may formulate a request for help by starting with what isolates you, then acknowledging the connections and sources of support that remain possible.
