Geomantic Characters: A Comparative Occult Chart
Rows of geometric signs and letter-like forms fill a ruled chart headed Geomantic Characters. Dotted figures and planetary symbols run along its margins, connecting the central rows with additional symbolic systems. The chart appears in The Great Book of Magical Art. Its ordered bands make repeated strokes, rotations and small differences between forms available for comparison.
