Solomons rings

how many rings was he known to own

ChatGPT said:

According to various mystical traditions—especially those rooted in Kabbalistic, Solomonic, and Islamic lore—King Solomon is most famously associated with one legendary ring, known as the Seal of Solomon. However, deeper esoteric sources and magical texts suggest that he may have possessed or created multiple rings, each with unique powers or symbolic functions.

Here’s the breakdown:

🔯 The One Famous Ring: The Seal of Solomon

• Described as a signet ring engraved with a hexagram or sometimes a pentagram.
• Said to grant Solomon the power to command spirits, jinn, demons, and animals.
• In some legends, it had the Name of God inscribed on it or encoded 72 Names/Angels (Shem HaMephorash).
• Often considered a divine gift—sometimes from Archangel Michael, sometimes from God Himself.

📿 Traditions That Speak of Multiple Rings

While not as commonly cited as the singular “magic ring,” several traditions hint at or directly speak of Solomon having more than one ring, either in stages of his life or for different spiritual applications:

1. Kabbalistic Interpretations
   • Solomon may have crafted different rings inscribed with different divine Names, to align with specific angelic hierarchies or planetary spirits.
2. Islamic Mysticism (Sufism)
   • Some Sufi traditions hold that Solomon had multiple rings of power, possibly 3 to 5, each for jinn, wind, animals, communication with birds, or time shifting.
3. Grimoire-Based Accounts
   • In the Lemegeton and other grimoires, his power is linked to 72 spirits. Some magicians believe these may have been divided among rings, seals, or sigils, encoded in different tools.
4. Lost or Secret Scroll Traditions
   • There are mentions in oral mystical traditions that Solomon may have hidden rings—some say seven, to align with the seven heavens or seven archangels.

🕊️ Summary

While one master ring is most often highlighted in sacred texts and magic lore, esoteric traditions and magical systems suggest he may have owned multiple rings, possibly:

• One ring of dominion (Seal of Solomon)
• One for each elemental force (Earth, Air, Fire, Water, Spirit)
• Or seven for divine alignment
