Name 3 of the 72 Names of God: Samekh-Yod-Tet (סיט)

Name 3 of the 72 names of God is the triplet סיט, spelled Samekh-Yod-Tet. In the Hebrew Qabalah tradition it is one of 72 three-letter units read from Exodus 14:19–21, and it carries the angel name Sitael in the Seraphim choir. This page sets out what the archive records about it: its letters, its derivation, its psalm verse, and the place it takes on a Luckwell sigil.

The three letters and their values

The Name is made of three simple Hebrew letters, none of them a final form. Using standard gematria (mispar hechrechi), the values are Samekh 60, Yod 10 and Tet 9, which add up to 79.

• ס Samekh, 60. The Golden Dawn attribution is Sagittarius and the tarot card XIV Temperance. Its King-scale colour is blue.
• י Yod, 10. The Golden Dawn attribution is Virgo and the tarot card IX The Hermit. Its King-scale colour is yellowish green.
• ט Tet, 9. The Golden Dawn attribution is Leo and the tarot card VIII Strength (Golden Dawn order; XI in Marseille and Lévi). Its King-scale colour is greenish yellow.

For saying the letters aloud, Luckwell uses the aids SAH-mekh, YOD, TET. These are Luckwell's own pronunciation aids, not a tradition. In Jewish practice the triplets are not pronounced as words, so the archive spells them as letter names.

Where the Name comes from

The 72 Names are derived from Exodus 14:19–21. Each of these three verses has 72 letters. The verses are written out in a boustrophedon arrangement, with verse 20 reversed, and the letters are then read in columns. Column 3 gives this Name, which is why it is numbered 3. The method is described in the Wikipedia article on Shem HaMephorash and on Chabad.org.

A few triplets repeat: #1 and #49 (והו), #11 and #17 (לאו), and #14 and #55 (מבה) are duplicates. Because of this, the archive always identifies a Name by its number rather than by its letters. Name 3 is not among the duplicated triplets. For the full derivation, see the 72 Names from Exodus.

The angel name, rank and Psalm verse

Following the Reuchlin tradition of 1517, with psalm references from the later Rudd tradition, Name 3 is paired with the angel Sitael. The rank is Seraphim, the first choir, which covers Names 1 to 8. The psalm reference attached to this Name is Psalms 91:2.

The archive records the pairing as a reference, not as a claim about what the verse or the angel does for anyone. The nine choirs run in sequence across the 72: Seraphim 1–8, Cherubim 9–16, Thrones 17–24, Dominions 25–32, Powers 33–40, Virtues 41–48, Principalities 49–56, Archangels 57–64 and Angels 65–72.

Which intentions Luckwell routes to this Name

Luckwell routes this Name to one of its twelve intentions: luck. The internal tag for this is Luckwell's own routing label, not a name from the tradition. When someone chooses that word, the 72-Name for their sigil is picked from the luck subset by a hash of their birth date and intention. The choice stays stable for the same person and the same intention.

On the finished sigil the three letters sit on the outer ring. They are also traced on the same kamea (magic square) as the owner's letters, but in the accent colour. For the wider picture of how luck is treated in the archive, see the sigil for luck.

How Luckwell builds it

This Name belongs to the layer that follows the intention. The owner's name and the intention sentence form the letter core. The 72-Name is a separate layer, added to it, and it is tied to the intention rather than to the name.

The kamea trace follows Agrippa II.xxii and the Golden Dawn convention. Letters become numbers, and any number larger than n² is reduced by Aiq Bekar: while the value is above n×n, it is divided by ten and rounded down. On a 3×3 square, for example, Samekh (60) reduces to 6, Yod (10) to 1, and Tet (9) stays 9. The cell centres are joined with straight segments. A small circle marks the first cell, a short bar marks the last, and a loop marks a repeated cell.

The Name is the same for the same birth date and intention, and a different intention draws a different Name. The weekday ruler may add a secondary ring colour, and on the site every planet ink is rendered in oxidised gold on obsidian. Those hex values are Luckwell's design choice. The full list of layers is in the archive index. If you want to see how Name 3 sits on a sigil of your own, you can forge your own.
