I realized I didn’t post a follow-up to the Deneb Algedi fixed star election. I was able to create my own talisman, a large Chalcedony engraved with the sigil of Deneb Algedi, during the appropriate time. I was also able to prepare the engraving and components for two light box talismans during the election. The main part of this type of talisman is a piece of plexiglass hand-engraved with an image appropriate to the talisman type. In this case the plexiglass is engraved with a symbol for Capricorn and the sigil of Deneb Algedi. The engraving is then mounted in an illuminated wooden box which causes the engravings to glow. Other appropriate materials are also placed in the box, similar to a spirit box or conjure bag.
I’ll be making these two light box talismans available for sale once they’re completed. I’ll also put a page up with pictures, ritual information, etc.
Thank you to Nigel Jackson and Christopher Warnock from Renaissance Astrology Website for providing the beautiful Deneb Algedi image attached to this post.

Dremel with a diamond dust engraving bit. I got the bits from Ebay. They only last for a talisman or two because they’re cheap crap, but they do work lol
