fold once
In the spirit of approaching Valentine’s Day, I thought I’d offer something for those looking for love. A Planetary Love Talisman of Venus! Few things in life are as subject to the whim of fate or chance as finding love. When trying to find someone special, there is always the element of chance involved. To be at the right place at the right time and then say the right thing…is there a way to gain some advantage over this element of chance? Possibly.
I don’t present something new, but something old…very old…the power of talismans. Above is a talisman I put togehter. Talismans are symbolic objects that are imbued with spiritual force to work towards a specific task. What is our goal? Do we wish to gain the love of a specific individual? Or do we wish the Universe to find us love? Each requires a different approach.
fold twice
Our first step is to print out the image at the top (right click and print). Then we cut out the square and fold it along the lines as shown. This will be our talisman.
Next we need to create a sigil, which is a pictorial symbol of a name. This Talisman has the numerical square of Venus on it. Using numerology, we will give a numerical value to each letter of a name. Then draw lines connecting the numbers related to the letters on this square. I have provided an example of my own name David…D=4, A=1, V=4, I=9, D=4 . If we want the love of a specific individual, then we will draw their name/sigil on the talisman. If we want the Universe to decide, then we will draw our own name.
Copper is the metal that symbolizes Venus. I would put a copper penny in one of the sleeves when folded, and then paste it shut. Only use a copper
David Sigil
penny from 1981 or earlier. Pennies from 1982 or later are made of zinc and should not be used. I suggest the date of the penny should be the birthday of the name on the talisman. If the birthday is after 1981, use numerology to match the name with a date. The process of finding this coin is part of the process of creating the talisman and of focusing our intent.
Hold the completed talisman and pour our conviction, our knowing, that the Universe will work to our favor and let this object symbolize our intentions. A talisman is a tool very similar to the Law of Attraction. The Law of Attraction suggests the use of a vision board where photos of our goals are pinned on a board to reinforce the process of visualization and focused desire. It is not hoping, or wanting, but an act of knowing, of faith, that the desire will come to pass.
The power of this talisman works best when it is used to focus on our own self-improvement and not on other people. Our goal should be to love our self first. If we don’t love our self, why should another love us? If we let past events, or bitterness, or a bad attitude rule us, we will attract that in return. The goal is to be happy with one’s self, and try to be the best possible person we can be. If we attain that, others will naturally be attracted to our newfound charisma. Use the talisman as the tool to focus on self-improvement, and we will find the world will be drawn to us. The trick to finding love really is to love one’s self first.

Hi Dave,
I had a quick question. After the talisman has been made, what do you do with it? Are you supposed to carry it with you? Sleep with it under your pillow?
I also wanted to let you know that you have a great web site! Very cool topics.
Thanks,
Cat

Hi Cat,
There are differences of opinion on what to do with a talisman. Some recommend that they be kept in a secret place at home, and let it do its job. My opinion is it should be kept close to you, maybe in a purse or wallet. What I failed to mention is that it should NOT be shown to people. Keep it secret no matter where you have it! After it is successful, destroy it by fire.
And thanks for the kind words about my site. I am new at blogging and discovered it is more time consuming the I expected. But it is fun!

I have not seen one of these for ages hey, there so mathematical these talismans.. Helps to be good at maths with these ones.
February 20th, 2009 at 2:46 pm
Hi Timon, Yeah it takes a bit of time to make a talisman, which is the point I think. The process focuses the mind, and the focused mind really is the point of a talisman.
February 27th, 2009 at 5:50 am
question on the math part, is it just the first name?
I am a bit confused on the letter to number part, like A is #1 and L is #3 so I make a line from 1 to 3? then the next two letters go with another or they all have to connect?
February 27th, 2009 at 12:49 pm
Hi Will,
We could use our full name, first and last name combined. But that is not essential. We really are known by our first name, that is our personal name, and that works fine too. I added to the post the Sigil for the name Victoria. Notice the R and I both are number 9. In that case, you make a small semi-circle (shown above).

Спасибо Яндексу, именно благодаря ему я нашла этот замечательный форум.
Думаю здесь я останусь надолго.

Hi there,
You really didn’t discuss charging the talisman. What is your method/ritual of charging it? Or do you not charge it?
May 4th, 2009 at 11:54 am
Hi Moonchild,
Charging a talisman is a whole topic in itself. But is charging really essential? I tend to think the process/ritual of creating the talisman is what imprints it our consciousness. But charging is important in that it seals the deal. In my next post about talisman I’ll offer ideas about charging.

HI,DAVID, HAVE DON YOUR TALISMANS…,HOW SOON WILL THEY START TO DO THE WORK YOU RECON? & I’VE DON ONE AS WELL “THE WEALTH” FOR MY BOY FRIEND WITH OUT HIS KNOWLEDGE & I PUT IN HIS WALLET(HE KNOWS THAT I’M WITCH & I CAN STOP THE RAIN, SO HE LET ME TO DO WHAT EVER I WANT) BUT AS IT IS YOUR CREATION, WOULD IT WORK FOR HIM IF HE DON’T KNOW ABOUT IT’S EXISTENCE? & MY NAME ENDS ON “LOVERS” TALISMAN 5 2 3 1 5 1 , SO YOU CAN SEE IT’S 3 TIMES ON SAME LINE , SHOULD IT BE SEPARETED ? THX
May 7th, 2009 at 7:09 pm
& my comment on “I know people who have spent a lifetime in the pursuit of attainment at the expense of others, and they never seemed to suffer any adverse consequences” well, David, you say it your self “what goes around comes around” & this is true!, the only it may be not in this life…,but it surely will sooner or… next life…, plus we are the ones that choosing our experiences we wont to go through in this life when we are in spirit world & even to experience be a killers…

Hi Sensation,
The three lines will be beside each other. Interesting combination you have there! As for when it will start working, that is anybody’s guess. I think of talismans as tools related to the law of attraction. We manifest reality by our thoughts. Will it work without your boyfriend’s knowledge? I really don’t know. Let me know if it does!
May 8th, 2009 at 3:30 am
Sensation, I think we eventually get what we deserve in this life, and then the next. It just might not happen the way people expect.
November 25th, 2009 at 8:29 pm
Hi David,
just one question, actually I’m just curious why you didn’t draw a square around the number which corresponds to the sum of the digits!? It is suppoused to be 7 for Victoria?
Kind regards,
Apoc’
December 14th, 2009 at 3:54 pm
David,
I think the day of Venus is Friday. This Friday I may print this talisman , so please give the correct time to take this print and charge it as well.
December 14th, 2009 at 3:56 pm
David,
Should the print be in color or Black & White?
December 15th, 2009 at 3:55 pm
Hi Leonad,
I am working on a post about magical timing, taken from the Keys of Solomon. I will be posting a chart about the hours and days of the week based on the planets. The tricky part is figuring the hour by dividing the daylight or night time by 12, it varies everyday due to the seasons. The hours of Venus on Friday are 6 am, 1 pm, 8 pm, and 3 am, so those would be the time to create the talisman. However, a daylight hour is not necessarily 60 minutes, the winter daylight magical hours are shorter, the magical night hours are longer.
December 15th, 2009 at 3:56 pm
I would use color. Red symbolizes passion.
February 24th, 2010 at 11:00 pm
Hey David,
I was curios if you could me send some titles, of books from which I could make my own talisman, I mean by using some special alos etc. etc.
I had this old book, but I lost it when I was moving, there where really complicated talismans, based on “The lesser key of Solomon” I was looking for actual recepie in the lesser key and greater key, but writter, only informs us about pentacles for evocation, but I’m interested in talisman, which You can carry with you, and they will help.
I need books with manual step by step.
February 25th, 2010 at 10:32 pm
Hi S,
A book that might be useful is by Israel Regardie, named ‘How to Make and Use Talismans’. It is pretty good.

Ztephz,
It is very easy to find a copper penny. Look in your change for any U.S. penny dated 1981 or earlier, those are copper. I find them every day. The search for a copper penny with a date that matches you in numerology is actually part of the process of creating a talisman. When you find that penny that is meant to be used for your tailsman, then it becomes your lucky coin.

hello david,
right now im here in the philippines, is really hard for me to find a copper coin, can i replace it a round shape copper? and thank you so much, for your respond.
April 2nd, 2010 at 7:14 pm
Ztephz, you could use any shape of copper. The ultimate talisman of Venus would actually be engraced on a plate of copper, but that would be a big task.
April 3rd, 2010 at 1:33 am
by the way, in making this, what day should i make this? friday? during a full moon or new moon? and again thank you so much
April 5th, 2010 at 4:08 pm
Areety, I am sure older UK pennies are copper, but you might want to check when that was. They probably moved away from copper like the US did. I don’t know enough about the coinage of the UK.

Is there a way to specify the physical and personality characteristics of our ideal lover in the talisman? for example; say I wanted the universe to find me a lover with dark brown eyes, how would I symbolize that? can I make sigils for characteristics? or what if I were to enclose a picture of someone who resembles my ideal? I’ve heard of people having success with including the characteristics of their ideal lover in the talisman, but I’m not sure how it works. This is the only web page I have been able to find which broaches the subject. Thanks.
August 20th, 2010 at 7:11 pm
Hi Vigil,
Unless you have a specific person in mind, I’d suggest we let the Universe pick who would be our ideal love. Often what we think is important may not be so. We may overlook love because we have closed our minds to different possibilities. Be open and listen to the Universe’s subtle whisper. If we have a list of requirements, I fear a talisman can’t overpower our preconceptions. These are subtle forces at work.

September 9th, 2010 at 6:17 pm
Hello David. If i want to make this talisman for a person likes me( for exemple), , i shold write just the name of person OR my name + the name of person?
Thanks!
September 10th, 2010 at 8:21 pm
Sy,
If you have a person in mind, just use their name as the sigil on the talisman. However, I had not thought of combining two sigils on one talisman, your own and the name of the person you desire. That might not be a bad idea. The point is to use the talisman as a focus for your wishes. Tap into the power of the Universe, very much in line with the law of attraction. Transform yourself into someone who gives love, and the one you desire may see in you the power of the Universe.
Dave
December 15th, 2010 at 4:18 pm
Does your the talisman have to be in color?
December 15th, 2010 at 4:19 pm
I say that because its the same arguement as the synthetic oil vs pure essential
December 15th, 2010 at 10:20 pm
Hi Jonny,
I’d suggest color is important symbolism. We want many symbols in sympathy combined. I’d go with color. Red is the color of love. To the modern eye, green could be the color symbol for money, and so on.

hi. is it compulsory to use a copper penny? ty
June 18th, 2011 at 5:13 pm
Wilder,
Copper is the traditional metal of Venus. It’s purpose is mainly symbolic, but that is the whole point of the talisman, to be a symbolic creation. So no, a copper penny is not compulsory.
Dave

Looking at the Hebrew part of the talisman, it seems this is specifically focused for having children, not necessary finding love per se. The first one says that the 2 flesh become one (which would be appropriate for any relationship of love) but the second one focuses on the biblical command to be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth…If you have any more information on the use of this talisman for those who don’t want kids, or have already had enough, it would be helpful.
July 1st, 2011 at 1:10 am
Hi Kat,
You offer an interesting idea. Love is often linked with creating a family. But that is only one aspect of love. There is romantic love, love of family, love of friends, love of humanity. Each could use their own special talisman. A friendship talisman would be no less important to the lonely and friendless then a love talisman would be for those looking for romantic love. I think finding romantic love is the first talisman we alll need, it is built into human nature. After that family and friends become important.

hy David,
I am momentary in studying of talismans, and I cannot find anywhere language on talismans.
I see you use Hebrew, but I could not purify images I’ve downloaded from your site enough to clearly read it, cause I haven’t spent much time with reading language itself.
I was wondering, if you would have some reference book or something similar for those inscripts on talismans you could recommend?
July 20th, 2011 at 3:08 am
Hi Ivana,
I used the talismans from the Keys of Solomon. You can find online sources with the images!

Will I go to Hell if I make a talisman?
November 14th, 2011 at 10:33 pm
Hi Zodiac,
I suppose it depends on your beliefs. If anyone is not comfortable with the idea of talismans, they shouldn’t use them. A Catholic could use one of their medals devoted to a saint instead. Talismans can take many forms and many times we don’t even realize that is what they are. Anyone have an angel on their keychain?
