"The symbols on the outside are a septagram of the planets. Skipping the Star of David on the top, and moving clockwise, the first symbol is Saturn, then Jupiter, Mars, the Sun, Venus, Mercury, the Moon. The order seems funky, but it's actually traditional in the way septagrams are set up. If you trace them in a specific order (Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn), it makes a pattern of the days of the week--starting with Sunday. Reverse that pattern, and you get the Sephiroth of the Tree of Life.
The square with numbers in it is the Kamea of Saturn. Kamea are Hebrew magical squares traditionally associated with the qabalah and the planetary Sephirah on the Tree of life. This one represents the third Sephirah. Each row, column and diagonal equal to 15. The sum of all numbers is 45, or 'Mah,' the secret name for Yetzirah, the World of Formation.
The third Sephirah is Shabbathai, the Sphere of Saturn, which is also the planetary symbol to the right of the Star of David, and therefore the most important for this talisman. Shabbathai brings wisdom, which may be the purpose of the talisman.
The symbols below and to the right of the magic square appear to be angelic script. If pressed to guess, the one below looks very much like the script for the angel Camael and the one to the right like that of Caffiel (according to Barrett's The Magus). Camael is chief of the order of powers and one of the sefiroth according to the qabalah. In Clement's Angels in Art, Chamuel--a variation on the spelling of the same angel--was the angel who wrestled with Jacob. Caffiel is the archangel ruling over Saturday.
Above the magic square is a symbol which invokes the magic of the talisman. At the top, it has the name of the angel Aba, the angelic luminary invoked in qabalistic rites. I'm not certain what the other names (ELAB, EHIE, TAIE) are meant to do. Nor am I certain what the numbers to the left of the magic square are meant for (although it seems clear they are magic numbers for some purpose).
Likely it is a mystical Hebrew talisman for bringing wisdom, although just as likely a protective talisman (since most talismans are meant for protection). Nevertheless, if you want more, you may want to check out Hebrew Amulets by T. Schrire, Routledge & Kegan Paul (1966). I don't have a copy on hand, or I would offer you more."
