only deaf have not heard of King Solomon and his stamps.It only remains to find out what it is and why they were created.And this is to unravel the legend that mystical veil covers the printing and creates an alluring aura of mystery.And to be honest, all that we represent, saying, "Seal of Solomon"?Some characters used in the series and horror movies?Sorcerers, alchemists, who are looking for the philosopher's stone?Everything is much simpler.
Seal of Solomon.Legend
According to the legend, this print was created known at all times, a king to rule over the spirits, which in his homeland was called Jean.After application of the mark to all known signet ring of gold, the king could not only command the gin, but also talk to animals.
If we talk specifically about Signet, here versions diverge.According to some assumptions in addition to King Solomon's seal on the ring also has the name of God, and precious stones.Another hypothesis states that instead of the divine name was there a Star of David (at this stop later).
At all times, the print had a variety of meanings and interpretations, among which was a combination of print in Greece, Egypt and Mesopotamia, which is plain in the hidden ornaments.Christians say that the press shows the seven centuries of world history, which, of course, ran the archangels and the seven planets.Muslims do not bother much of its meaning and simply attributed to her property makes a person wiser (than, strictly speaking, different King Solomon).At all times, these seals were used wherever possible and impossible.Books, household items, architecture, maze, decorate and more had a hidden or explicit Seal of Solomon.
Seal of Solomon.How many triangles and a construction drawing
Structure Print King Solomon in the modern version has one common element - a Star of David, which is inscribed in a circle.In the rays of the star points are located.According to the legend, then their place is precious stones.Now it either points or other symbols, which are determined by the intentions of adherents, using printing of King Solomon.Literally permeates letters that have come to us since the days of the life of the king.Accordingly, in a star of David, two triangles, and therefore in the press, as a rule, it is a six-pointed star.But in some cases, as mentioned earlier, we used a seven-point star.
not universally the case
each celebrity seal of King Solomon was not universal.Its purpose is directly determined by the content that is put in the mystic writings and drawings.Apply this image, usually in circles, made of precious metals (or metal corresponding to the planets, which turns the magician).In the old days they were produced manually, and now they can be purchased from the masters.At the same time you have received an individual letter, and printing can be performed as ornaments, Goldfield or wall of stone tablets.In general, most CONTEMPORARY seals have so modified that the original is in them is very difficult uglyadet, but semantic load and the power they have over the centuries of existence have only increased.
