The Seventh Pentacle of Mars
Raises hail and tempest; written on virgin parchment with bat's blood, in the day and hour of Mars, and uncovered in the circle.
Source: S. Liddell MacGregor Mathers, The Key of Solomon the King (1888), Book II ch. 18, Plate VII fig. 31; Peterson's e-text (esotericarchives.com) lists the same sequence. The 1-44 number follows the edition's own 'Order of the Pentacles' (Saturn first: 7+7+7+7+5+5+6); later books reorder (Mastros 2023 counts from the Moon), and the pentacle's own name is its per-planet ordinal. Mathers gives the full material instructions (virgin parchment, bat's blood) and the invocation of the demons named in it; the verse is Ps 105:32-33. Where a Psalm is cited, the numbering is Mathers' English (KJV); the Hebrew numbering is lower.
