Apocalyptic key
Seven circular emblems surround a central field of Greek and Hebrew lettering. Human figures, instruments, geometric forms and a radiating central eye-like design appear across the connected circles. The History of Magic captions the plate Apocalyptic Key. The complete arrangement is retained as one symbolic design within Lévi’s occult reading of revelation.
