The Sagittarius Alchemical Zodiac Pendant draws its inspiration from an ancient alchemical manuscript, where it is described as one of the most potent and revered sigils in the alchemical arts. According to the text, this seal was to be crafted in the hour of Jupiter, when the Sun enters Sagittarius, typically around the 12th or 13th of November. The sigil was to be forged from pure tin, free from any alloy, ensuring its integrity and effectiveness.
The engraving was to be completed during the hour of Jupiter, while the Moon was waxing, further aligning the pendant with celestial energies. Traditionally, the sigil was to be hung from a silver ring and kept scrupulously clean to maintain its potency.
This ancient talisman was said to possess extraordinary powers, offering protection, strength, and clarity of purpose. It was believed to be particularly effective in confounding adversaries, silencing those who doubted or undermined its bearer. The manuscript’s author recounts the seal's power to leave critics "amazed and speechless," underscoring its commanding presence.
Additionally, the pendant was thought to hold medicinal virtues, aiding in fortitude, resilience, and the restoration of balance in both body and spirit. However, the seal came with one caveat—it was to be removed during acts of intimacy, as such moments were believed to diminish its power.
Reimagined in gold, this pendant is a talisman for wisdom, confidence, and fearless exploration. It serves as a reminder to embrace the bold, adventurous spirit of Sagittarius while standing firm in one’s truth and purpose.

About Solid Gold ✨
Solid gold is the best option if you:
1. Want to wear your piece forever or pass it down as an heirloom. Solid gold will last for centuries without degrading.
2. Want to invest in jewelry as an asset rather than an accessory. Gold traditionally appreciates in value and can always be melted down and made into a new piece
Unlike many brands, our gold is never hollow - it is always 100% solid, cast using the lost wax method, meaning there is a lot more gold in each piece.
Our gold is 100% certified recycled and each piece is handcrafted here in New York.
About Gold Vermeil
Gold Vermeil, pronounced ver-may, is a french term for a style of gold plating that is regulated by the federal government. Unlike "gold plated" jewelry, vermeil must always be on a solid 925 sterling silver base - rather than brass - with at least 2.5 microns thickness of gold. This is 3 times thicker than normal gold plating.
This makes vermeil a longer lasting product than gold plated jewelry, as well as more valuable because it's composed entirely of precious metals.
When will my piece ship? 🚚
We keep a small inventory of solid gold pieces - please check about the 'Add to Cart' button to see if your piece is in stock.
If not, it will display the estimated ship time so that we can custom make it for you in our NYC studio.
What does Traditional Retail Price mean? 💸
Most brands sell through boutiques and department stores, where the pricing model is usually a 2 - 4x markup from their wholesale price. For example, the jewelry brand sells the piece to the store for $1000, and then the store sells it to you for $2,500.
Because Common Era sells directly from our studio, we can give our customers the same pricing we would be giving to wholesale stores.
