For example, one of the first sigils I created was called MONEYMAN which I made to try and win the lottery. At the start of each year, the admin team of The College of Psychic Studies gathers in the Library for a very special meeting. We meditate on how we hope the College can serve our community in the highest and best way. Then, we seal our heart-felt hopes with a sigil. A sigil is a magic symbol or design that represents our specific intentions. It helps to focus the mind and bring energy to our intention. We find it to be a heart-lifting, affirming culmination to our new year ritual, and we wanted to share with you a little more about it, includinghow to make a sigil, what magic sigils are used for, and why it's such a powerful practice. What does a magic sigil look like?

After charging the sigil, it is considered necessary to repress all memory of it. In the words of Spare, there should be "a deliberate striving to forget it". [6] Later chaos magicians have expanded on the basic sigilization technique. Grant Morrison coined the term hypersigil to refer to an extended work of art with magical meaning and willpower, created using adapted processes of sigilization. Their comic book series The Invisibles was intended as such a hypersigil. [7] Morrison has also argued that modern corporate logos like "the McDonald's Golden Arches, the Nike swoosh and the Virgin autograph" are a form of viral sigil: Rearrange the letters in any conventional or unconventional way you like. For example, you can choose to turn some letters upside down, enlarge other letters, minimize the rest, or merge two letters together. Have fun and enjoy the process! Sigils are about more than simple desire. They are about us becoming aware of our desires, wants, and needs, voicing them, and then releasing them into the Universe. Remember, the last step of the sigil activation has to be letting go.However you go searching, find something that you like looking at, because when a sigil appeals to you, that means your subconscious is already connecting with it at some level. That's the most important part - connection. First, one of the absolute best things to do with sigils is to create your own ones and use those of others as a base or reference point to go on to your creation process. Essentially, yes. But, sigils don’t have to work to our detriment, if our motivation and execution is correct. We just have to make sure they are. To create your own word sigil, start with your intention (Spare referred to this as your statement of desire), remove any repeating letters, and use the remaining letters to design a sigil. The first step in making a sigil is to create a clear statement about your intentions. You want to lay this out very specifically so the manifestation is precisely what you want.

Simply put, a Sigil is a symbolic representation of an energy, word, or intention statement that when activated, helps manifest the energy, word, or intention statement that it represents. They also aren’t a replacement for action. You can’t just wish to have a fantastic job and sit around the house waiting for it to happen. Don’t be lazy. In clay pots in your garden space (you can add some flair to it by turning it upside down and placing a solar light inside)Lust, on the other hand, is desire turned sour. Lust is the dark side of desire, and we need to be careful of it. Lust results in addiction, jealousy, crimes of passion, hatred, and all kinds of suffering. Poor examples of this same intention might include, “More confidence” and “More confidence around my boss next week at the business meeting at 2 pm.” One of these intentions is too vague (sigils work best when you are specific), and the other is too complex. The more I read, experimented, and reflected, the more I realized that sigil magic is actually based on the process of creation and release. In other words, creating a sigil encourages surrender as much as it encourages desire. A sigil is our will and intent condensed into one intricate symbol. It’s something that we make ourselves to project and focus our intentions and desires. Sigils are meaningless to everyone, aside from the person who created them and gave them meaning and purpose. Modern Sigils Are Everywhere Around Us At a most basic and plausible level, creating a sigil is a way of programming your subconscious. No different from using positive affirmations or visualization. It just gives you an extra something to push you toward your goals.

Wondering how to make a sigil? The key is to always trust your intuition. Making a sigil is a personal process. However, it involves several steps: setting a clear intention; choosing ordesigning a symbol that represents that intention; and, the most important part, charging the symbol with energy to manifest the desired outcome. Here's how to create a sigil based on Allyson and Alex Grey's method described above: You do not have to fire your sigil, but I do recommend it. It gives more meaning to your sigil. And, you will be imprinted more by the process. That makes it perfect for someone just starting out, or those who want to practice magic but can’t afford to buy all that expensive other stuff. In modern chaos magic, when a complex of thoughts, desires, and intentions gains such a level of sophistication that it appears to operate autonomously from the magician's consciousness, as if it were an independent being, then such a complex is referred to as a servitor. [10] When such a being becomes large enough that it exists independently of any one individual, as a form of "group mind", then it is referred to as an egregore. [11] [12]

The example was made of the 7 spirits of light, but each sign contains and retains a particular power, such as the pentacle, planetary symbols, etc. By combining the symbol with the electromagnetic waves that arise from our thought or desire, they create in all respects a magical sigil if performed in the right hours of the day or night. But in chaos magic, we use sigils as a way to represent a desire. Chaos magicians usually believe that instead of being supernatural beings, the power of sigils is in their ability to tap into the human unconscious mind. Instead of controlling demons and other external forces, we use sigils to control our own psyche. Corporate Magic This takes the preconceived meaning from the sentence. Without an apparent meaning, something becomes a symbol. And that symbol’s power is held fast within your mind and spirit.

The sigils you create are ‘encoded’ with a very specific intention. When you create and activate a sigil, you are putting thoughts and desires into a physical form – and creating a symbolism of those thoughts and desires. Sure, it’s a brand marketing thing. You want people to see your logo and recognize it, as well as associate it with positive attributes. And logos are great for that purpose. Meaningless shapes can be used to represent a company in a way that transcends any particular language and spreads like a virus. Note the hidden arrow symbol between the E and X in the FedEx logo. This subconsciously communicates speed, accuracy, and moving forward. Start by using a sigil to bring good positions to your attention so you can apply to them, then make a sigil to be charismatic and charming during your interview, and so on.That’s up to you to figure out. But in my experience, yes, it does. However, I also understand that creating sigils isn’t for everyone, so please do experiment and see for yourself.
