Evaluating Magical Elections: The Significator

Evaluating elections for astrological talismans is partly a science and partly an art. It is a complicated affair, requiring complex knowledge of traditional astrological technique as well as the particularities of the tradition of astrological magic. In this series of posts, we provide an explication and analysis of some general principles and knowledge—mostly grounded in the Picatrix but sometimes from other traditional sources as well—to help empower you to better evaluate the quality of astrological talismans on the market, including our own.

In this post, we outline some of the very basic, essential features of planetary and fixed star elections, focusing on the significator or primary celestial body that the talismanic working is focusing on.
