THE RING AND THE DISC WITH THE WORKING OF THE TRIPOD
The especial magical implements of a Theoricus Adeptus Minor are the Ring and the
Disc. Of these, the Ring should be worn in all second Order meetings in the manner of a Jewel,
as a badge of rank, suspended by a ribbon either of citrine, olive, russet, or black color, or of all
four colours combined. Also this Ring may be used for the purposeof decoration only, reserving
another Ring for practical use.
The Ring, represented in the diagram below is shown as somewhat larger than is
convenient for practical work.

The Disc should be of fair size, somewhat larger than the diagram, but not too large. It
can be classified in three parts:
1. The White Center.
2. The Coloured Rays.
3. The Letters.
The White Center hath upon it in black the Letters of the name YHShVH arranged as
shewn, and also the Motto of the Theoricus Adept. The first is to keep the working pure and to
control astral action. The second is to identify the Theoricus with the working.
