Origin & Lore
The name Solomon’s Seal belongs both to the ring of legend and to a woodland plant, Polygonatum, whose root carries round scars said to look like a seal pressed into wax. King Solomon is remembered in the Bible for his wisdom and his judgements. This oil is a modern blend named in his honour, used for wisdom, decisions and spirit work in his name.
Legend says King Solomon wore a ring engraved with a seal that let him command demons, and that he set them to work building the Temple in Jerusalem.
The Testament of Solomon, a Greek text from the early centuries of the Christian era, tells how the archangel Michael brought Solomon a ring engraved with a seal, and how he used it to question and bind demons. The idea lives on in the grimoires: the Key of Solomon and the seventeenth-century Lesser Key, whose first book, the Goetia, lists seventy-two spirits.
Did You Know?
The Solomon’s Seal plant gets a new scar on its root every year where the old stem dies back, so the scars can be counted to estimate its age.
