Welcome to the Aegis Collection Preview
Thank you for joining us here for our eleventh collection release. We’re offering this preview for you to get to know the talismans a bit, check their elections, and do some initial divination before the full collection release. Precise release times are as follows:
- Early access for Inner Sanctum members: Monday, September 22, 2025 @ 12:47pm EDT
- Mailing list subscribers: Thursday, September 25, 2025 @ 12:35pm EDT
Inner Sanctum members receive a 20% discount on every Aegis collection talisman purchase.
Note that the full product pages will include full talisman descriptions, election charts along with a detailed discussion of the qualities of the elections, as well as further ceremonial and technical details of the talismans (Inner Sanctum members also get early access to full collection info). We are providing this preview in part because astrological talismans by their very nature are limited edition, and we want people to be informed ahead of time so that they can make the most informed choice possible about which if any talisman might be right for them.
Each Idola Stellarum talisman will include: a velvet jewelry box for safe keeping and display; a detailed writeup about the talisman, its creation, and guidance on how to introduce yourself to it; and a certificate of authenticity signed by Rain & Pallas. All talismanic jewelry in the Aegis collection has been set in high quality precious metal settings. Specifically, the pendants are set either in sterling silver or gold-plated sterling silver settings, and include a matching sterling silver (or gold plated) rope chain.
Continue on below to see images of the talismans and their altars, as well as for elections and charts, pricing, and recommendations. Full narrative descriptions of the talismans and detailed writeups of the elections will follow closer to the collection release.
NOTE: Descriptive talisman preview text, pricing, and images are subject to revision, editing, clarification, and correction before the official collection launch.
Perseus Constellation – Athena’s Shield
20mm lapis lazuli talisman in sterling silver crown bezel pendant setting – $325
Ensouled on Wednesday, March 5, 2025 between 9:33am and 9:54am EDT.
Of the nature of the Perseus constellation, these talismans were created with the intent of granting the bearer protection, particularly from misfortunes, storms, witchcraft, and attacks by the envious.
The Athena’s Shield talismans come in 16mm malachite in sterling silve prong pendant settings & 20mm lapis lazuli talisman in sterling silver crown bezel pendant settings.
We consider these talismans to be beginner friendly and we issue no specific cautions as to their use.
Royal Persian Star Antares – Scorpion’s Heart
Ensouled on January 8, 2024 between 4:36am and 4:51am EDT.
Of the nature of the royal Persian fixed star Antares, these amethyst talismans were created with the intent of granting the traditional magical gifts granted by this star: health, memory, understanding, and of course protection, particularly spiritual protection.
The Scorpion’s Heart pendants were crafted from 20mm amethyst cabochons set in gold-plated sterling silver crown bezel pendant settings.
We most readily recommend this talisman to people who either have experience with talismanic spirits or who are reasonably adept at negotiating and setting boundaries with spirits.
Sun in Capricorn III – Terra’s Throne
Ensouled on Friday, January 12, 2024 between 7:08am and 7:26am EST.
Of the nature of the third decan of Capricorn, these talismans were created with the intent of granting material stability according to the description of Picatrix, which says: “This is a face of wealth and the accumulation of money and increase and embarking on trade and pressing on to a good end” (Book II, Chapter 11).
The Terra’s Throne pendants were crafted from 18x25mm African bloodstone cabochons set in gold-plated sterling silver pendant settings.
Decan talismans are more rare and esoteric compared to planetary and even fixed star talismans. We therefore recommend that adopters of these talismans have some fluency with spirit work and preferably with talismanic relationships.
NEW!! Jupiter in Cancer Talismanic Linocut & Letterpress Prints!
Small Crane Print – framed – $120
Large Crane & Orphic Hymn Pint – unframed – $145
Printed during the early morning of Wednesday, August 13, 2025 between 2:39am and 3:11am EDT.
We are pleased to present the premiere offering of devotional and talismanic prints from Idola Stellarum! These prints were ritually created during a talismanic quality Jupiter in Cancer election.
The small prints feature the talismanic crane image, and the large prints feature the talismanic crane image and a letterpress print of the Thomas Taylor translation of The Orphic Hymn to Jupiter. Each print is signed by Pallas and Rain and numbered in their respective series.
The framed versions of the smaller prints come in 4×5 warm silver (small) wooden frames with easel backings. The large frames also include hanging hardware. We discovered the large frames did not meet our quality standards, and thus the large prints are only being offered in unframed versions.
Note that all astrological talismans by their time-sensitive nature are extremely limited edition. Only a relatively small number of each talisman we release will ever be available.
We hope you have enjoyed these previews of the Aegis collection. Again, the full collection release will contain a great deal more information on each and every talisman. As a reminder, the release times for the full collection and shop are as follows:
- Early access for Inner Sanctum members: Monday, September 22, 2025 @ 12:47pm EDT
- Mailing list subscribers: Thursday, September 25, 2025 @ 12:35pm EDT
The link to the shop and individual talismans will be accessible here and via the main menu of the website at the appointed times as well as in your inboxes. If you have any questions, please get in touch.
