Aldebaran is a red giant and a royal star of great renown. As the visionary eye of the great Bull of the heavens, Aldebaran is a star that gathers wealth and honor, according to Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa and the Behenian star lore of Hermes Trismegistus. The ruby hue of Aldebaran, along with its association with Venus and Mars, suggests how the fiery Eye of the Bull achieves glory and accumulates abundance: through desire, passion, willpower, and creative fire. Aldebaran initiates and creates with an indomitable, sharp focus that always strikes the center of the targeted Bull’s Eye. Do you have a dream and grand vision? A world you intend to build and develop to inspire and uplift others? If so, you can have no better ally and creative partner than the daimon of Aldebaran.
This hammering and heating, if it happens under a harmony similar to that celestial harmony which had once infused power into the material, activates this power and strengthens it as blowing strengthens a flame and makes manifest what was latent before, as the heat of a fire brings to visibility letters previously hidden which were written with the juice of an onion; and as letters written with the fat of a goat on a stone, absolutely unseen, if the stone is submerged in vinegar, emerge and stick out as if they were sculptured. Yes, and just as the touch of the broom or the wild strawberry excites a dormant madness, then perhaps hammering and heating alone brings out the power latent in the material, if it is done at the right time.
- Marsilio Ficino

Stellar Talismans
In Nature and all things; which these soft fires
Not only enlighten, but with kindly heat
Of various influence foment and warm,
Temper or nourish, or in part shed down
Their stellar virtue on all kinds that grow
