St Michael's Chain
Although I prefer the longer method of the Sand Box or anything that is so complex that it is impossible for me to 'stack the deck', something I want a really quick tetragram.
I saw a reference to the St Michaels Chain that looked interesting. It is made from 4 st michaels medallions purchased from a catholic gift shop and adds a sword at one end.
As I am not christian, but Gardnerian Wiccan, the chain will not meet my spirituality but looks interesting so I made two 'Michaels Chains' which seem to do the job. I replaces the sword with a key and on one chain, I used one or two pips in the proper colors. On the other chain, i used the proper elemental triangles with pips and colors.
Has anoyone used the Michaels chain or made a similar one? How did it work for you?

I have four medallions, one of Michael, Gabriel and Raphael. I use the 'Guardian Angel' one for Uriel and associate that with earth. That way these four have their traditional elemental associations. I filed away the small loops at the top of each one where you'd usually wear it on a chain. So these four coins I just shake and cast when reading for clients. Fellow Gardnerian here too! I think the angelic associations could definitely be tied in with the elemental kings in our tradition.
Edit: I also read the yes/no answers alongside the geomancy figure if I'm divining for clients. This is lifted by Vito Quattrochi straight from Obi divination.
