The Veritable Key of Solomon

The planet Mercury is often considered the planet of communication. You may be familiar with the spirits of the Fourth of Mercury and their excellence at finding answers and diplomacy with other spirits. But what if you personally need help with communication and diplomacy in your daily life?

Communication failures can cause strife in one’s personal and professional lives. Even good communicators can only communicate when the other person is receptive to what they have to say.

The folks who tested this pentacle reported that they are able to express ideas more clearly, with real-time inspiration about what needs to be said or what a person most needs to hear in order to convey an idea to them. They feel more connected to the people they speak with, and those people are noticeably more attentive.

Whether you are sparking a conversation with a new person at a meetup or speaking to clients at work this pentacle will make communication and the navigation of social situations easier. If you do cartomancy professionally or have any sort of job that sometimes requires you to give bad news, this is definitely the pentacle for you.
