The seven planetary metals are those metals which, according to ancient occult knowledge, were assigned to the seven planets visible to the naked eye, whereby the Sun and Moon were also regarded as wandering stars. The planetary metals reflect characteristic properties of the respective planetary deity; for example, the weapon metal iron reflects the god of war Mars or the warm reddish copper reflects the goddess of love and beauty Venus. The table below follows the occult order of the planets in the geocentric system:
