Mars in Capricorn Exaltation Degree Talisman ⚔️

The talismans offered will be engraved with the symbol of Mars and ensouled under this very special alignment on Mars hour, as Mars and Venus rise above the horizon. To ground and pacify this special election and ensure that only the most constructive and purified Martial energy infuses these precious amulets, the Moon in Pisces will be enclosed by the benefics (separating from a sextile to Jupiter, applying to a sextile to Venus). This highly auspicious configuration has Mars in a night chart, at the degree of his exaltation and in his own term for a total dignity score of +6 — a powerfully placed Mars!

At the degree of his exaltation, Mars is like a dignified commander at the height of his power: focused, strategic, methodical, Mars’ energy and combativeness is used in the most efficient of ways. At a fundamental level, Mars is the warrior planet of aggression, attack and anger: he represents the primal instinct of survival and protection. A hot and dry planet in nature, he finds his exaltation in Capricorn, a cold sign which tempers this boiling temperament! In this sign, Mars becomes a lot more reasoned and strategic — instead of being blinded by anger, he is able to calmly examine the best course of action for his plans — just like a general coming up with the best strategy before battle.

As a result, this talisman is ideal for those who seek not only energy and strength to accomplish their great plans, but also to keep their focus, stamina and to come up with the most excellent of strategies. According to medieval astrologer Al-Biruni, a planet at the degree of its exaltation is extremely powerful for “kingship and authority”. The third decan of Capricorn has a strong correlation with power, and especially with ruling through knowing the intricacies of power systems. With a Mars talisman at his exaltation degree, the wearer is provided with the discipline and fuel to achieve their highest plans and ambitions.

This talisman is particularly well-suited to eliminate fear and shyness in the wearer, to become determined and to ensure victory against your enemies, those who wish you harm and negative intentions. This Mars talisman is ideal for those who wish to pursue their highest ambitions, who want to achieve victory and excellence, and who wish to become better at “standing their ground”. While the Mars Cazimi in Scorpio collection had a more fierce, “bright and burning” feel, this one is more meticulous — the ferocity of Mars is expressed in the precision of his actions.

Planets in their exaltation (and especially at the degree of their exaltation) have a reputation for bringing about quick effects. This is especially true for Mars in Capricorn, a cardinal sign which initiates things rapidly! Expect fast progress and lightning-quick effects.

This talisman is best suited for: those who seek to keep enemies and negative/jealous energy away, those who want to triumph and obtain victory in competitive contexts and environments of all kinds (at work, with difficult opponents, in sports…), and to build strong protection against personal and spiritual attacks.

This talisman will work particularly well for those who have their Mars/Ascendant/Midheaven degree at 28° Capricorn, as well as those who have a dignified Mars (particularly in Aries, Scorpio or Capricorn). Although divination is always best before getting a talisman, Mars talismans are generally not recommended for those who have Mars in Taurus, Libra or Cancer. If you’re unsure whether this talisman is compatible with your chart, contact me with your birth info (date, time & location) and I will let you know if a Mars talisman is okay to get.

Here are various sources about the effects of Mars in Scorpio talismans from Renaissance astro magic authors:

“A Mars talisman makes a man potent in war, and judgments, and petitions, and terrible to his enemies, and victorious against them..." Cornelius Agrippa, Three Books of Occult Philosophy, Book II, Chapter 22.

(For a ring made at the exaltation degree of Mars): “The ring of Mars is for victory over opponents and the removal of fears if worn by night as well as protection against serpents, stinging insects and wild animals who will avoid whomever carries this ring.” (Book of the Treasure of Alexander).

Important: while extremely dignified and grounded in a magical practice that emphasises the constructive qualities of Mars and its use only for positive purposes, please note that due to the very nature of the planet this talisman can bring about strong feelings such as anger, irritation and restlessness. If you are feeling unstable, prone to anger or volatile emotions, please be aware of this possibility and proceed with the according caution. Feel free to contact me if you have questions about this, and please note that I cannot guarantee the effects of a talisman.

Talismans are a co-creation of reality, and are powerful devices which enable you to create and nurture a relationship with a deity or (planetary) spirit. You can read more about the rationale behind talismans and their use here.

Important: All talismans presented are handmade with natural stones corresponding to the nature of Mars and Capricorn (red garnet, red and black agate, jasper, onyx), and metals (sterling silver and genuine gold plating). The stone used is mentioned in the description of each talisman. Keep your gold-plated silver jewelry shining bright by avoiding exposure to water and chemicals. Regularly polish it with a soft cloth to maintain its finish and store it separately to prevent scratches. Due to the nature of the plating process, the gold plating of the jewelry can wear off if worn frequently or exposed to water or chemicals. This is normal and will not affect the potency of the talisman.

The talismans available for pre-order are in extremely limited quantities as they are hand-crafted, and each piece must be ordered sufficiently in advance for it to be engraved and consecrated within the electional window. Consequently, talismans are available for pre-orders for 10 days after they open. It is advised to order a talisman rapidly as I cannot guarantee that it will still be available after the release. A period of a full month will be taken between the creation and shipping of the talismans to ensure their potency and beneficence — consequently, your talisman will be shipped starting March 11, 2024.

All sales are final, and payment must be received in full before the talisman is sent. A talisman cannot be exchanged or refunded, and Hélo Astro cannot guarantee the effects of a talisman. If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact me using the contact form!

This talisman is sold as curio only.
