Amon ring: reconciliation, love, and knowledge of what is past and to come

Amon, Marquis of the Goetia

In the Grimoire Companion data, Amon is a Marquis who reconciles friends and foes, stirs love, and reveals what is past and to come. Those three offices belong together, and they are worth considering together, because a working that touches one of them will often touch the others before it is done.

Reconciliation is the first office, and it is the one that gives the others their shape. Amon is not presented as a spirit who merely smooths over a quarrel for an evening. Reconciling friends and foes means bringing parties who have been set against one another back into a workable relation. That is slow work, and it is work that requires honesty about what went wrong, not merely a wish that it had not happened.

Love, in Amon's office, sits beside reconciliation rather than apart from it. Love that follows a reconciliation is different from love that begins in infatuation: it has survived a break, and it knows what the break cost. And knowledge of what is past and to come gives both offices their grounding, because a practitioner who understands how a relation came to break is better placed to mend it than one who only wishes it whole.

Why a ring, and why a cast seal ring

A ring is a seal you wear. That is the simplest way to put it, and it is also the most important. A pendant can be put away. A disc on an altar stays on the altar. A ring, worn on the hand, is with you while you write, while you speak, while you meet the person the working concerns. It is a working tool that travels through ordinary life, and that is both its strength and its demand.

These are lost wax cast seals of the Daemon Demons of the various grimoires. They are pure metal which is actually cast, starting with a wax version, which is much higher quality than the 3D printed versions using metal powder and plastic that you find around the internet. In lost-wax casting, the seal is first worked in wax, then cast in metal from that wax form, and the metal that remains is a solid, cast object, not a printed shell.

That choice of metal is part of the order, and it is worth making deliberately, for the metal you will wear every day, rather than by default. A ring that is uncomfortable, or that does not suit your skin or your work, will be taken off, and a seal ring that is always taken off is not being worn as a working tool.

Reconciliation work, done honestly

Before any working for reconciliation, be clear about what you are asking for, and about your own part in the break. A petition that blames the other party entirely, and asks only that they change, is not a reconciliation. It is a demand dressed as a petition. Reflection about being specific about what you want is part of good practice here: name the relation, name what broke, and name what a mended relation would actually look like, in ordinary terms, not in vague wishes.

That specificity also protects the practitioner. A working for reconciliation that succeeds in bringing two people back into contact, without any change in what caused the break, will often break again, harder. A working that is accompanied by honest reflection, by an apology where one is owed, and by changed behaviour where behaviour was part of the problem, has something to stand on when the contact resumes.

Amon's office of revealing what is past and to come belongs in this reflection. Look back at how the relation came to break, in plain terms, without flattering yourself. Look forward to what you will do differently if the relation is mended. Write both down. That record, kept over days and weeks, is what lets you tell whether anything has actually changed, rather than whether you merely felt hopeful on the night of the working.

Working with the ring: holding, anointing, wearing

A seal ring is worked with in several ways, according to your own practice. Hold it in your hand when you are preparing a working, and take time to look at the seal properly before you begin. Put it under a candle during a working, if your practice calls for that, so that the seal sits within the working itself. Put oil on it, deliberately, naming the purpose in your own words, when anointing belongs in your rite. Wear it when you are working, and put it away properly when you are not, rather than leaving it loose where it can be scratched or lost.

Showing the seal to the desired person is part of Athena's general seal-working guidance, and it has a particular meaning in reconciliation work. It does not mean displaying the ring as a claim or a threat. It means, in a working context, letting the seal be present in the relation the working concerns, openly, rather than working entirely in secret about a person who has no knowledge of the work. How that applies in a particular case is a matter for the practitioner's own judgement and practice, and a general article does not decide it for them.

Made to order timing follows the pattern of the other cast seals here. A seal that is already listed takes about two to three weeks while seals that are not listed, but are under the other option, take eight weeks, because Athena still has not carved their waxes yet.

Care, record, and closing

Care for a cast ring is practical. Pure cast metal will show wear over time, especially if it is worn every day, against skin, against clothing, and against other objects. That wear is normal for a working tool. Keep the ring in a clean, dry place when you are not wearing it, away from other metal objects that could scratch it, and clean it gently, with a soft cloth, without harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners unless you know, for the specific metal involved, that such a cleaner is safe.

Keep a short record for each working: date, purpose in one sentence, the seal and any oil or incense used, what you did, and what you noticed afterwards, over days and weeks. Do not repeat the same working endlessly in the hope that repetition alone will force a result. Do the work properly, once, observe, and then decide calmly whether a second working, a different approach, or no further working is the right next step.

Amon also has a matching incense, at $44 CAD, for spirit work and spellwork with Amon, hand made in small batches when you order. Fumigating the ring through that incense, to start a working, is a companion practice to anointing it, and both belong to the same working, if your practice calls for them.

Amon Goetia cast seal ring

A seal for Amon should be a seal, not a picture of one, and a ring is a seal you wear through the working and through ordinary life. This is the ring I offer for that work: Amon Goetia cast seal ring, $216 CAD. View the product

I make these as lost wax cast seals, cast from a wax version in pure metal, one at a time, and I bless each one myself before it is sent out. I make no promise about what it will do for you, only that it is cast by hand, for this work.

Amon also has a matching incense, at $44 CAD, for spirit work and spellwork with Amon.
