and what the relation with the tetragrammaton

It's a small Pentagramm. Or maybe the ton on the end means it's a heavy Pentagramm. A tetragrammaton is a fifth lighter.

A 5 letter word. How does it relate? A tetragrammaton is a 4-letter word.

The Tetragrammaton is the name of God used in the Bible (translated to YHWH).

Both "penta" and "tetra" are Greek prefixes used for expressing numbers. They are not numbers you can count with, but special numbers you add to a word.

Those are the first ten:
mono: one
di: two
tri: three
tetra: four
penta: five
hexa: six
hepta: seven
octa: eight
nona: nine
deca: ten

So a Pentagram is something with five points.

My guess about Pentagrammaton is that it is the Greek word for pentagram.

according to this its an obscure, and from the sound of it, not entirely accurate, term for jesus, or rather jesus's hebrew name.

the tetragrammaton is the original, true personal name of God.

Perhaps it's a singing telegram for Mister Crowley

its not in the american english dictionary, nor the oxford one. googling it gives me 2800 hits, making me believe its a made up word, and not an actual concept.

it probably has something to do with a pentagram but beond that its everyones guess i suppose.

maybe this site makes sense to you, it didnt to me, but it seems to try to explain.
