No two early examples should be expected to appear completely identical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePersonal Experiences Shared by Luksits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring Por Sala Tan's earlier years, this was particularly sought after by \u003cstrong\u003eluksits who were themselves practising wicha\u003c\/strong\u003e. They regarded it as a means of strengthening personal Baramee so that their practice could develop upon a stronger spiritual foundation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt was not restricted to practitioners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccording to accounts surrounding these early pieces, lay luksits holding positions of responsibility — including \u003cstrong\u003evillage chiefs, police personnel and military officials\u003c\/strong\u003e — would specifically request the Yant 9 Pean Din from Por Sala Tan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey associated it with stronger personal presence, authority and the ability to command respect when dealing with people under difficult circumstances. Others carried it more generally for health, prosperity and support in their livelihood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmong collectors of Por Sala Tan's Barang artifacts, another longstanding use was particularly interesting. Those keeping numerous \u003cstrong\u003eYin or spirit-based objects\u003c\/strong\u003e sometimes carried this yantra as a Baramee foundation, believing its strong solar component helped maintain balance while supporting the workings of their other sacred objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSummary\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Yant 9 Pean Din Suriyan Jantri represents a different side of Por Sala Tan's work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRather than being centred upon a particular Prai, Jinn or spirit, its construction is based upon \u003cstrong\u003eplanetary, solar and lunar wicha\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe front incorporates the \u003cstrong\u003e9 Pean Din\u003c\/strong\u003e, interpreted within this lineage through the nine planetary forces and the auspicious symbolism of \u003cstrong\u003enine pots of gold\u003c\/strong\u003e. The reverse develops the solar aspect through eclipse-related yantra and Suriyan symbolism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTogether, the composition was intended to establish a strong field of \u003cstrong\u003eBaramee, authority, prosperity and energetic balance\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts rarity today comes not simply from age. Por Sala Tan stopped producing this elaborate yantra around B.E. 2515, making surviving examples characteristic of his early period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHistorical Background\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlanetary yantra occupy an important place within older Southeast Asian astrological and magical traditions. The movements of the Sun, Moon and planets were regarded as more than methods of measuring time; particular celestial configurations were considered suitable moments for performing specific rites.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePor Sala Tan's \u003cstrong\u003eYant 9 Pean Din Suriyan Jantri\u003c\/strong\u003e brings several of these ideas into one composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt its centre is the concept of the nine planetary influences. Around this foundation are additional lunar and solar formations, creating a yantra intended to draw upon both sides of the celestial cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe piece therefore could not simply be written and blessed on a single convenient day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts preparation followed the movement of the heavens themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOrigins of the Materials\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe yantra is made from \u003cstrong\u003elead\u003c\/strong\u003e, a traditional material well suited to hand inscription. Its relatively soft surface allowed Por Sala Tan to cut extremely fine aksorn and geometric lines directly into the metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this particular wicha, however, the importance lies less in rarity of material than in what was placed upon it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lead functions as the physical field upon which the planetary structure was established. The front and reverse were treated as complementary surfaces, allowing lunar, planetary and solar elements to operate within a single object.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis surviving example retains the characteristic aged grey surface of old lead, with the hand-worked lines remaining visible across both faces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRitual\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe consecration of the Yant 9 Pean Din Suriyan Jantri reportedly extended for \u003cstrong\u003emore than one year\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePor Sala Tan worked with different \u003cstrong\u003esolar and lunar events\u003c\/strong\u003e, returning to the yantra at appropriate periods rather than completing its empowerment through one ceremony.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe purpose was to progressively establish the various celestial forces represented within the design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eJantri — lunar — component\u003c\/strong\u003e was associated particularly with attraction, Saneh and secondary channels of fortune.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eSuriyan — solar — component\u003c\/strong\u003e represented Baramee, strength, authority and an enduring outward current.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEclipse-related periods were incorporated into the ritual sequence as well. Only after the necessary stages had been completed was the working regarded as properly sealed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis lengthy process helps explain why these pieces were never produced casually or in large quantities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBlessings and Effects\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe principal quality of the Yant 9 Pean Din is \u003cstrong\u003eBaramee\u003c\/strong\u003e — the strengthening of personal presence, standing and spiritual authority.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe nine planetary arrangement is traditionally connected with prosperity and the symbolism of the \u003cstrong\u003enine pots of gold\u003c\/strong\u003e, while the lunar aspect introduces Metta, Saneh, attraction and opportunities for additional income.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe solar side contributes a different character: authority, strength, confidence, leadership and the ability to sustain one's position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional applications therefore encompass \u003cstrong\u003eBaramee, health, wealth, authority, prosperity, Metta-Saneh and support for spiritual practice\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor practitioners, its purpose extends further. A stronger Baramee foundation was regarded as beneficial when undertaking wicha or maintaining other empowered objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModern Application\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor contemporary collectors, the Yant 9 Pean Din remains particularly appropriate for people carrying significant responsibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBusiness owners, managers, senior professionals and those whose occupations depend upon leadership may appreciate its traditional emphasis upon Baramee and authority. Its wealth and lunar components also make it relevant to commerce, networking and circumstances where favourable relationships matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is equally interesting for collectors maintaining several \u003cstrong\u003ePrai, Jinn or other Yin-oriented artifacts\u003c\/strong\u003e. Within Por Sala Tan's tradition, the strong Suriyan current was used as a balancing Baramee force, allowing the keeper to maintain a stronger personal foundation alongside spirit-based pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRather than functioning solely as another attraction or wealth amulet, it can therefore be understood as a \u003cstrong\u003efoundation piece\u003c\/strong\u003e within a larger collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePhysical Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a circular lead yantra measuring approximately \u003cstrong\u003e1.5 inches\u003c\/strong\u003e, now preserved within a clear protective casing. Both faces are densely covered with fine hand-inscribed sacred geometry and aksorn, demonstrating the degree of precision required for this early design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe front is dominated by the \u003cstrong\u003e9 Pean Din planetary arrangement\u003c\/strong\u003e. Eight surrounding formations encircle the larger central planetary structure, traditionally identified with Jupiter, while additional lunar yantra occupy the composition beyond the principal circle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reverse continues with a different geometric arrangement centred upon the solar system of the wicha. Eclipse-related yantra are positioned within the composition, surrounded by further sacred writing and the larger Suriyan structure. Ageing of the lead has produced subtle differences in tone between the two surfaces, while the fine inscriptions remain remarkably visible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRecommended Pairing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is one of Por Sala Tan's pieces that requires very little pairing because its construction already combines several complementary currents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor someone carrying \u003cstrong\u003ePrai or other Yin-based artifacts\u003c\/strong\u003e, however, the Yant 9 Pean Din is especially appropriate as a Baramee and Suriyan foundation. The intention is not to overpower the other artifact, but to strengthen the keeper's own standing while maintaining balance within the collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt can likewise accompany a Buddhist amulet or Lersi piece when greater emphasis upon discipline, authority and personal Baramee is desired.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePersonal Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat interests me most about this Yant 9 Pean Din is that it shows \u003cstrong\u003ePor Sala Tan's earlier technical ability as a yantra practitioner\u003c\/strong\u003e, rather than the spirit-based artifacts for which many collectors know him today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLooking closely at the piece, the amount of writing is remarkable. The circles, individual planetary compartments, central geometry and extremely small aksorn had to be arranged within a lead disc only around 1.5 inches across.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis also explains why Por Sala Tan eventually stopped making it. According to the history passed down with these pieces, he produced this yantra only until around \u003cstrong\u003eB.E. 2515\u003c\/strong\u003e, as the proportions demanded eyesight and precision that became increasingly difficult to maintain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe year-long consecration is equally significant. This was not simply a yantra written one afternoon and blessed immediately afterwards. Its wicha depended upon different lunar, solar and eclipse periods, meaning completion followed the appropriate celestial occasions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor collectors of Por Sala Tan, I regard the Yant 9 Pean Din Suriyan Jantri as an important early piece — particularly for understanding the depth of his \u003cstrong\u003eplanetary and Baramee wicha before many of his later Barang artifacts became better known\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"OOBThaiAmulets","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48022300033161,"sku":null,"price":355.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0602\/1831\/0793\/files\/Untitled-311_fb5b3067-3c78-4b49-9255-9446689179f2.jpg?v=1787811444","url":"https:\/\/oobamulets.com\/products\/por-sala-tan-copy-34","provider":"OOBThaiAmulets","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
