A place to discuss sigils

The internet shares much in common with the "Akashic records"... Once a sigil has been created it needs to be shot out into the aethyr in order to achieve it's intended magical effect. Posting an image to the internet is a good parallel action for this. Whether anyone sees the image or not, it is the act of sending it out that is important. In addition to discussion of sigil work, this subreddit serves as a dumping ground for this kind of thought-stuff.

What's your favorite method of producing sigils? From Agrippa to Chaos Magic to Osman Spare, there are numerous ways to produce a sigil. If possible, explain the procedure. Note: the graphic is not a sigil, but an O'Keefe image. Could it be a sigil? Looks so to me. Can we use art to do this?

Some do sigils some do doodles!

Some do sigils some do doodles ...
I am not the "bad guy" but please understand that sigil construction involves more than drawing tools, a desire and a 2 minutes doodle no matter how of an effort you believe you exercise in making it.

I will jump to "the bottom line" and circle back so you have a clear understanding of what I'm saying.
Behind sigil magic must be the will, the belief and manifestation will occur no matter if you do a dot or an intricate construction.

My suggestion for most of you, beginners of the craft is to stop searching for validation.
You guys must understand that other individuals (here on this platform, and maybe on other spaces) are (basically) good guys, with good intentions, caring and most of the times you will get lots of feedback like "good job" ... "I'm impressed" or other comments which are meant to encourage you and that is a good intention, but doesn't help you at all.

Your magic is as powerful as you are but you can't tap in that power if you don't trust yourself and feed your ego with what others have to say about your drawing.

Build self-trust, self-confidence, do a dot and move mountains with it because you will it.

A single dot can be representative to an entire universe.
A sigil can hold the magic energy of thousands of rituals so it is painful to see how many of you don't tap into that knowledge.

The methodology. To be frank, the methodology has influence but ultimately you are the source of the magic you perform, you can draw a sigil sitting on a toilet counting tiles, if your focus and belief is where it needs to be, than manifestation occurs.

I don't say methodologies don't matter, are important of course because through the idea of methodology we can tap into so many energy reservoirs like collective consciousness, collective agreements, planetary energies, aspects of numerology, sacred geometry and so many other aspects we have no idea we use but we do it intuitively.

The conversation. Not all sigils are the same. Some sigils are called wards, shields and many other purposes, offence, defence, creation (way to much to write about these), invocation/conjuring/ banishing, manipulation... so on.
Some sigils align with the axiom of As Above So Below, which can be translated into the idea that some sigils are for external perception, other sigils for internal perception, enhanced awareness, clarity, external projections, self-empowerment... so on..
So, sigils are like a note one sends to its subconscious mind, off into universe.
To conversate with your unconscious mind is difficult because your conscious mind is using words and processes in a way which is different from how your/our subconscious mind works.

Vision boards as a method of meditative state is an example, asemic writing, again another example, of how conscious mind is interacting with subconscious.
You think, your physical mind is processing thought using your library, be it sourcing from memories of your past experiences be it from knowledge... so on... but your subconscious mind has access to universal libraries and by the way, doesn't stick to english only :D - akashic records, collective consciousness, messages and assistance from entities, other realms, so on... the channel used is imagination and intuition, translated into human body as passion and creativity... so with universal knowledge at your disposal you choose to communicate with your higher mind drawing a doodle... The doodle is not the important part, already said that but the state of mind... how much energy you put into what you do, the dedication, the amazing feeling of creativity which moves your hand to draw.... that's the state you need to be, to channel with passion, to create with energy, form a state of creativity not lack of what you use as a desire to charge your doodle, not with "emmm.... I wonder if I did it right, it will work?!"

Draw a dot, find the meaning in a single dot.
How? The dot is the most powerful creation because all other shapes and lines are made from dots.
The dot has the potentiality to become everything you can imagine so isn't that bs to come up with a shaky line and two letters "that's my amazing magick sigil! what you think?!" ... No it is not, it is an wasted effort if the energy state is one of lack.

Read the books but experience for yourself.
I have a community on Fb for sigils and in the beginning there were newcomers and all had the same questions: "how to learn and what books to read"
Read all books, learn all what is to be learned and it will not bring you satisfaction because you are a creator and not a fax machine, a copyator so try everything you want to try, experience all methodologies ever developed but at the end you will create your own style because, at the end you will understand that every book narrates one perspective, One point of view, one experience form author's perspective and maybe a few sources of inspiration... Might be helpful, might not... my suggestion is to learn the basics, learn to access the collective knowledge because there are the agreements you need to understand.

What I meant by that is that you get familiar with symbolism, eclectic symbolism one of the building blocks of human reality so start from there. Experience through your own filters by developing the skills of understanding the reality because no matter how many contracts with demons you think you sign in order to gain superpowers to fly or whatever, if the collective consciousness doesn't agree upon that experience you waste your energy. (just an example of how stuff really works and not the hollywoodian bs)

Come up with your own methodology which works for you and let go the stuff which doesn't work.
Solomon's seals... studied by thousands of scholars, mystics, individuals and nobody had any success to conjure and rule above the 72 demons to build a temple not even a garage so have you wonder why?

Anyway, my suggestion is to find your own style, develop your own methodology, know yourself and you will understand how to talk to your own higher mind because a drawing made with a goose hand is not conveying a powerful message.
Lines, shapes, structures, colors are the language of your subconscious and higher mind.
Tip: Learn about the primordial symbols: the dot, the circle, triangle, square...their meaning, representative of..

At the end of the day.... simply have fun & b creative

Using major arcana within sigil construction for entities

https://preview.redd.it/lxjp7a35qsee1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=27ecd0ef0dc4a9e66abb41d9c0bbe7c2c762cac2

A energy signature sigil - this is how it looks like for the temple we call Home.
This particular sigil is a commision for a client but for knowledge purpose I will share a couple of things about this so you can grasp the idea about the symbols used and their meaning.

The infinity symbol is representative to abundance and power (if you are familiar with archetypes from tarot's major arcana) assigned to  The Strength key**,** you will notice that 8-like symbol above the head of the character. Once more, the very same symbol is depicted in the Magician key from the major arcana ...
The Magician is defining the ability to harness resources from anywhere... which means abundance, and Strength is the momentum, great abundance and power.

The symbol in the center of the big triangle is representative to The Hanged man archetype.

The overall entity is using the expression of masculine energy, easy adaptation because of the Hanged man ability to change perspectives and of course abundance.

Please help me identify upper finger sigils!

Hello there friends! Came across these sigils on Pinterest (unfortunately no attributions were made) and I need help deciphering them. All I could make sense of was the fact that they remind me of the Taroon/Rashoon Sigils (dukante). I'm looking to tattoo the same exact place and these sigils really resonated with me so I would like to delve deeper into meanings, origins etc. Any and all aid would be greatly appreciated ^^

Protection sigil activation

I made a protection sigil for someone, but I can’t give it to them. It’s to protect them from someone else’s influence. I charged with self pleasure lol, but I don’t know if I should burn it or not. I made it a week ago. I think I should burn, but its a long term sigil, like a shield, so Idk what to do. If I should burn, If I should keep it and activate once a week or something like that. Any advice?

Can you turn sigils into cyber sigils?

This probably sounds really stupid but like is there a way to turn digits into cyber sigillism or is it just its own separate thing?

Thoughts on Sigil

Hello everyone, I recently got into sigils. I create sigils as a tool for meditation on certain problems, or for exploring consciousness. Sometimes the words come easy, sometimes I have to meditate for a bit before they come to me. I am always fascinated at what you can create from simple words we speak every day. What do you all think of this one? I went through a few variations, my favorite is the staff looking one. If anyone has any tips on this type of sigil making, I would love to hear it.

Can the sigils be intentionally active ?

Hi, so I'm christian, I'm interested (AND I'M TOTALLY NEW) into demonology and witchcraft (and I'm especially interested into Ars Goetia and sigils).

(Also I don't practice any sort of ritual due of my faith.)

So today I just draw the Sigil of Asmodeus and Lucifer bc I find these pretty "cool/good looking", but I don't have any intention to summon or interact with them, so I just threw these sigils away.

I just draw them without any intention, but can they still be active ?
