2 min read

A cross between alpha and omega is inscribed within a triangle. Julio applies this sign particularly to the dwelling and those who live there.

Read the symbolism

The triangle represents the Trinity; alpha and omega evoke the beginning and the end. The cross recalls Christ. The text placed beneath the figure asks that evil remain दूर from the person and their dwelling.

The attributed effects

The entry concerns the protection of the house and the entire family. It extends this request to stables, barns, and animals, as well as contagious diseases, according to the beliefs expressed by Julio.

Its use by Julio

The pantacle is associated with an intention to protect the place and its inhabitants, using a blessed and consecrated support. Its entry assigns the sign a specific purpose: the dwelling and the household.

A personal reading

A personal reading may begin with your home and the people who share it. Formulate an intention of peace and consideration toward everyone, then look at the triangle as a figure that brings people together.

The source and variants

The reproduction is plate no. 21 of the third volume. The Divine Triangle in the sacred name and the triangle with three crosses have their own entries; the inscriptions make it possible to distinguish the forms.
