Two rings, one of copper and one of zinc, must be placed at the centre of the wand; which afterwards
must be gilt at the resin and silvered at the prism end as far as the ringed centre; it must then be
covered with silk, the extremities not included. On the copper ring these characters must be engraved:
and on the zinc ring:
The consecration of the wand must last seven days, beginning at the new moon, and should be made
by an initiate possessing the great arcana, and having himself a consecrated wand.'
However the aspiring magician need not go to such lengths. It is sufficient to get a length of ash or
hazel (4) that is as straight as possible remove its bark and trim it to about one to one and a half feet in
length, with a sufficient diameter to inscribe your magical name and the following on it:
YHVH
Raphael
(Edit Note: it should read YHWH in English since no 'V' originally exists -Salmun)
The Cup (Water)
The Cup is the first of the Passive weapons, the Wand and the Dagger being Active Elements. By its
very shape it suggests that it (like the Pentacle) is primarily designed for operations of receptivity.
Ideally it should be made of silver, (5) but a glass cup will do. It must be engraved or painted with the
magical name of the practitioner, the Godname and the Archangelic name of the Element of Water:
