Valgars, Enochian Governor: A Seal Made to Be Carried or Kept as a Disc

A seal is not a picture of a seal

A seal for Valgars should be a seal, not a picture of one. That distinction sounds simple, and it is, but it changes how you work with the thing in your hands. A picture can be looked at. A seal can be carried, anointed, fumigated, placed on an altar, put under a candle, and worked with over time. It has weight, it has a surface you can touch, and it stays with you after the working is over, in a way a printed image does not.

The Valgars seal offered here comes in two forms, and the choice between them is part of the working itself. It is either a one-inch cast seal, or a hand-engraved two-inch seal, and it is your choice. The seal can be made into a pendant, or left as a disc. That choice is not a trivial matter of shopping preference. A pendant is carried, worn, and present through the day. A disc is placed, kept on an altar or working surface, and present in a fixed place. A practitioner should choose the form that fits how they actually work, not the form that looks best in a photograph.

If you are new to Enochian work, that choice deserves even more thought. A disc that sits on an altar and is worked with in a set place suits a practice that is anchored to one room and one time. A pendant that travels suits a practice in which the seal is carried as a constant focus. Neither is better in general. One will be better for your practice, and the honest way to find out is to ask how you already work, rather than how you imagine you might work one day.

Who Valgars is

That word Governor carries weight in the Enochian system. The Governors are the rulers of the parts of the earth in the Enochian scheme, each with a seal, a name, and a place in an ordered system that is far larger than any single working. A Governor is not a free-floating spirit to be approached casually. A Governor belongs to a system, and work with a Governor belongs inside that system, with its calls, its tablets, and its order of approach, as taught in the tradition.

That restraint is deliberate, and it is part of honest Enochian writing. The Enochian system is precise, and precision matters more than colour. A practitioner who works the system will know what a Governor seal is for in their own practice, and a practitioner who does not yet work the system should learn the system before ordering a Governor's seal as if it were a general-purpose charm.

Those facts define the object. The rest of the work, the calls, the timing, the place of Valgars in a larger Enochian working, belongs to the practitioner's own training and system, not to a general article.

Cast or engraved: two different objects

A one-inch cast seal and a two-inch hand-engraved seal are not the same object in two sizes. They are two different ways of making a seal, and each has its own character.

A hand-engraved seal is worked directly, by hand, into the metal surface, line by line. At two inches, an engraved seal has room for lines to breathe, and the engraving can be read closely, line by line, in a way a small cast seal cannot always match. A two-inch disc on an altar is a focus for a working in a fixed place: it can be looked at, placed under a candle, anointed, and fumigated, without being moved. A one-inch pendant, by contrast, is made to travel, and its smallness is its virtue: it can be worn daily, held in the hand, and kept close without bulk.

The choice, then, is a choice of practice. If your Enochian work is done at an altar, in a set place, with time set aside, a two-inch engraved disc may serve you better. If your work requires a seal to be carried, worn, and present through the day, a one-inch cast pendant may serve you better. If you are unsure, the disc is the safer first choice for altar work, because a disc does not ask to be worn, and wearing a Governor's seal daily is a commitment that should be made deliberately, not by default.

How the seal is made, in general terms

The general cast-seal practice in this shop is lost-wax casting in pure metal, starting from a wax version, made one at a time. Both are hand work, and both stand in contrast to machine production. A seal made by hand, whether cast or engraved, carries the marks of the hand that made it, and those marks are part of what makes it a working tool rather than a reproduction.

The general notes give, for example, that gold cannot be cast properly like that, so the method depends on the metal.

Making time, too, is part of the object. Hand work takes time, whether casting or engraving, and a practitioner who orders a Governor's seal should allow for that time rather than expecting a piece pulled from stock. Nothing in this article promises a delivery date, and any no-guarantee wording here is about the magical work itself, not about delivery of a physical seal.

Preparing to work with a Governor's seal

Preparation for Enochian work starts before the seal arrives, and it starts with the system, not with the object. If you work the Enochian system, you will have a place for a Governor's seal in your practice already: calls, tablets, and an order of working that you have been taught or have studied in depth. If you do not yet work the system, the honest preparation is study, not ordering. Read, learn the calls and the structure, and understand where a Governor fits before you bring a Governor's seal into your practice. A seal is not a shortcut to a system, and treating it as one will not serve you or the work.

When the seal arrives, do not start by wearing it everywhere at once. Take time to look at it, to hold it, and to set it aside in a clean place that is used for your working tools. If your practice calls for cleansing or consecration of a new tool, follow the instructions you already follow in your system. A general article like this one is not a substitute for proper teaching in the system, and it should not be used to invent a consecration rite for a seal you have not been taught to consecrate.

Prepare the room and yourself as you would for any serious working: clear the space, set it aside for this purpose, bathe or wash, change into clothes you do not wear for ordinary errands, and know what you are going to do, in your own words, before you begin. A clear head is a working tool, just as much as a seal, oil, or incense is, and for Enochian work, which demands precision of speech and attention, a clear head is the first tool of all.

Working with the seal: holding, carrying, placing, anointing

A pendant seal is made to be carried, and carrying it is part of the work, not an afterthought. Wear it when you are working, and put it away properly when you are not, rather than leaving it in a pocket with keys and loose change, or on a bathroom shelf. A disc seal is made to be placed, and placing it is part of the work in the same way: set it on the altar or working surface, in its proper place, and leave it there for the working, rather than moving it from shelf to shelf.

Holding the seal is a practice in itself, for either form. Take it in the hand, feel its weight and its lines, and let attention settle. Putting the seal under a candle during a working keeps it at the centre of the working for the duration of the burning. Putting oil on it, where your practice calls for oil, marks it for a purpose, deliberately, naming that purpose in your own words. Fumigating it, passing it through incense smoke, marks the beginning of a working, and the tools used in it. All of these are familiar seal-working ways, and a practitioner should use the ones that fit their own system, consistently, so that the seal gathers a history of use.

Do not use a seal as a substitute for the rest of the working. Carrying a seal and then doing nothing else, with no call, no petition, no attention, and no closing, is not Enochian work. The seal supports the work, it does not replace it, and for a Governor's seal, the work itself is the system: the calls, the tablets, and the ordered practice in which the Governor has a place.

A simple working order, to adapt to your own practice

The following is a general order, not a fixed script and not a substitute for Enochian teaching. Adapt it to the system you already work in. First, prepare the room and yourself, as above, and know the working you are undertaking. Second, set out the seal, in pendant or disc form, and any oil, incense, or candle you will use. Third, anoint or fumigate the seal, if your practice calls for it, deliberately, naming the purpose in your own words. Fourth, perform the working as your system directs, whether that is a call, a meditation, or an evocation in the Enochian manner. Fifth, sit quietly for a time afterwards rather than filling every moment with more words. Sixth, close the working properly, in whatever way your practice requires, and put the seal away in its proper place, worn or placed, according to its form.

Afterwards, write down what you did, when you did it, and what you noticed. Not what you hoped would happen, but what actually happened, in plain language. Note the seal itself in that record: its form, whether you wore it or placed it, whether you anointed or fumigated it, and what you noticed on days when you carried it compared with days when you did not. That record is what lets you tell, weeks later, whether anything changed, and whether that change had anything to do with the work.

Nothing in this article promises a magical result, and that wording is about the work itself, not about delivery of a physical seal. 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 simply more study of the system is right.

Care for a cast or engraved seal

Care for a metal seal is practical, not mystical, and it is worth stating plainly. 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, and it is not a sign that the seal has stopped working. It is a sign that it has been carried, or placed and handled, over time. Keep the seal in a clean, dry place when you are not working with it, away from other metal objects that could scratch it. Clean it gently, with a soft cloth, and do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners on it, unless you know, for the specific metal involved, that such a cleaner is safe.

For an engraved seal, take particular care with the engraved lines. Abrasive cleaning will wear the lines down over time, and once a line is worn, it cannot be easily restored without re-engraving. A soft cloth, gentle handling, and a proper place to keep the disc are enough. For a pendant, if the bail loosens, stop wearing it until it can be repaired properly. A tool that is falling apart is a distraction in a working, and a safety risk if it can fall off unnoticed.
