6 Black Pullet talisman: discover secrets

What the Black Pullet talismans are

The Black Pullet is a grimoire, and its talismans are a set of figures, each with its own purpose, numbered in the tradition. Number 6 in that set is the talisman to discover secrets. That numbering matters, because the Black Pullet talismans are not interchangeable. Each number is a different figure, for a different matter, and choosing the right number is the first part of the work. If your matter is discovering secrets, number 6 is the figure for it. If your matter is something else, another number in the set will fit it better, and it is worth checking the set rather than settling for a figure whose purpose does not match your question.

These talismans are offered in two forms in this line: as rings, and as talismans, which in the Black Pullet tradition include silk embroidered talismans as well as cast and engraved pieces. This article is for the talisman form of number 6, to discover secrets. You will receive one talisman, for this purpose, not a set of items, and not the other items that may be shown for information.

Discovering secrets: what that actually means

Discovering secrets sounds simple, until you try to say which secret you mean. A secret can be a fact someone is keeping from you. It can be a hidden connection between events that you have not yet seen. It can be knowledge that is not secret in the sense of being guarded, but hidden in the sense of being hard to find, or hard to understand. Before you work with a talisman to discover secrets, be specific about which kind of secret you are dealing with, and write it down in one sentence. A talisman aimed at a vague wish to know secrets will produce, at best, a vague sense of knowing, which is hard to use and harder to trust.

It is also worth asking, plainly, whether the secret is yours to discover, and whether discovering it will help you act better. Some secrets, once known, cannot be unknown, and they change how you see a person or a situation permanently. That is not a reason never to seek a secret, but it is a reason to be sure you want to know it, and to have a plan for what you will do with the knowledge when you have it. A talisman for discovering secrets is a serious tool, and serious tools deserve a serious question, not a passing curiosity.

How these talismans are made

The Black Pullet rings and talismans in this line are each hand made with the proper materials. That phrase, proper materials, is doing real work here. In grimoire work, the material a talisman is made from is not an arbitrary choice. It is part of the tradition, and a talisman made from the wrong material, or from a convenient substitute, is a different thing from a talisman made properly.

The designs are hand engraved right into the wax used to create the rings and talismans. That detail matters, because it is the point at which a hand made talisman differs most from a mass produced one. Hand engraving into wax is slower, and it leaves the mark of the hand that made it, in the lines of the figure itself. When you hold a talisman made this way, you are holding something that was worked on by hand, at the stage where the figure itself was formed, not stamped or printed afterwards.

Why hand engraving matters for a secret

For a talisman whose purpose is discovering secrets, hand making has a particular fitness. A secret is, by nature, something hidden, something that has to be approached with attention and care, not forced out with a machine. A figure engraved by hand, slowly, into wax, carries that same quality of attention in its making. That is not a mystical claim about the metal. It is a claim about how the work was done, and about what kind of attention went into the object you will carry. A practitioner who values hand work will notice the difference, and a practitioner who does not will at least know that the talisman was not run off a production line.

It also means that no two hand engraved talismans are exactly alike, even when the figure is the same. Small variations in the lines, in the depth of the engraving, and in the finish are part of hand work, and they should be expected, not treated as flaws. If you receive a talisman and it looks a little different from a picture of another example, that is not necessarily a mistake. It is the nature of a piece made by hand, for one person, rather than a piece made by a machine, for anyone.

Carrying and working with the talisman

A talisman to discover secrets is carried, and carrying it is part of the work. You can hold it in your hand while you focus on the question, put it under a candle while the candle burns for a working on that question, put oil on it if oil is part of your practice, carry it with you through the days when you are seeking the secret, or wear it as a pendant if it is in a form that allows wearing. Each of those uses keeps the talisman in the work, rather than leaving it in a drawer while you hope the secret will reveal itself on its own.

The most ordinary use, carrying it with you, is also the most important for this purpose, because secrets are rarely discovered in a single formal working. They are discovered over days, in conversations, in documents, in a detail noticed at the right moment, or in a connection that suddenly makes sense. Carrying the talisman through those days keeps the question present, in a physical way, so that you notice the detail when it appears, rather than walking past it. Keep the talisman in a proper place when you are not carrying it, and do not leave it where it will be handled carelessly, or mixed in with ordinary objects that have nothing to do with the work.

Framing the question well

The question you bring to a discover-secrets talisman should be as specific as you can make it, without trying to answer it yourself in advance. Not, what are people hiding from me, but, what is the hidden reason behind this particular decision, or, what fact about this situation have I not yet seen? A specific question gives the work something to aim at, and it gives you something to recognise as an answer when it comes. A general question, by contrast, can be answered by almost anything, which means it is answered by nothing in particular, and you will not know whether you have learned anything at all.

Write the question down, and keep it with your record of the working. Note the date you started carrying the talisman, the question as you framed it, and what you noticed afterwards, day by day, in plain language. A secret discovered is often not a dramatic revelation. It is a small fact, noticed at the right time, that changes how you read a larger situation. A record is what lets you see that small fact for what it is, rather than dismissing it because it did not arrive with thunder and drama.

What to do when a secret is discovered

Discovering a secret is only half the work. The other half is deciding what to do with it, and that decision deserves as much care as the discovery itself. Some secrets, once known, call for action: a conversation, a change in plans, a decision you can now make with full information. Some secrets call for patience: knowledge to hold quietly until the right moment, rather than to use at once. And some secrets, once known, call for nothing at all, except a clearer understanding of a situation you previously misunderstood. Knowing which of those three applies is a judgement call, and it should be made calmly, not in the excitement of the moment of discovery.

Be specific about what you want, in this second stage as well as in the first. A secret discovered without a plan for what to do with it can become a burden, something you carry and brood over, rather than knowledge you use. Before you start carrying the talisman, it helps to have a rough sense of what you will do if the secret is one kind of fact, and what you will do if it is another. You do not need a full plan for every possibility, but you do need to know, in general, whether you are seeking knowledge in order to act, in order to understand, or in order to protect yourself. Those are different aims, and they lead to different decisions afterwards.

When not to use this talisman

There are matters where a discover-secrets talisman is not the right tool, and it is worth naming them plainly. If the secret is a matter for ordinary investigation, such as a legal or financial fact that can be found through proper channels, use those channels first, or at the same time. A talisman does not replace a document, a record, or a direct question asked at the right time. If the secret belongs to someone else's private life, and discovering it would do no good except to satisfy curiosity, consider whether the question is worth asking at all. And if the matter is a safety matter, deal with it as a safety matter, in the ordinary world, without waiting for a secret to be revealed.

A talisman is also not a substitute for paying attention in ordinary life. Many secrets are discovered, in the end, by noticing what is already in front of you: a contradiction in a story, a detail that does not fit, a pattern that repeats. Carrying the talisman can help you notice those things, because it keeps the question present, but it does not do the noticing for you. Keep your eyes open, keep your record, and let the talisman support the attention you are already paying, rather than replacing it.
