…ope and Africa. To make this relationship clear, one may go a little into the symbol of the pentagram, or Shield of David. It represents Spirit ruling the four elements, and is thus a symbol of the Triumph of Man. The idea of the element of Spirit is very difficult to grasp. The letter Shin, which is the letter of Fire, has to do double duty by representing Spirit as well. Generally speaking, the at‐ tributions of Spirit are not clear and simple like those of the other elements. It is very remark‐ able that the Tablet of Spirit in the Enochian …
