Meaning of the Seal in the Oracle of the Triad

Card no.12

This is a very pleasant card to come across during a reading, as it reminds us that we are not alone, and that, quite the opposite, many bonds connect us to those around us and to the ones we love. These bonds, whether friendly, family or romantic, are within us and have helped to shape the person we have become today. And the Seal card reveals that the more time passes, the more these bonds grow even tighter and become more important in our eyes. In any case, the querent is well surrounded, and will know who to turn to for advice should the need arise. For the card announces that they have many new projects in mind, and that they are trying to envision their future.

Like every card in the Oracle of the Triad, the Seal is tied to a number, in this case no.12, which is the number of months that pass over the course of a year, but also the number of astrological signs that make up the zodiacal ecliptic circle. On the astrology side, it is associated with the signs of Sagittarius, Capricorn and Pisces. The card itself depicts the Hebrew Seal of Solomon, shown in close-up on a yellow background, a colour that symbolises the power of all royalty. At the centre of the Star of Solomon is inscribed the word denoting God in Hebrew, while the tips of its 6 points are marked with figures bearing planetary symbols.

During a divinatory reading, the Seal card announces brand-new projects for the querent to carry out in the near future. It also reveals that they have finally acquired the mastery needed to accomplish their missions, since they are in tune with the world around them and therefore attentive to others. Several cards can come into interaction with this one and thus tip its predictions toward a negative outlook; these are Death, Misfortune, Illusion and Error: those of Death, Misfortune, Illusion and Error.
