✨ How to Make Your Own Sigils ✨ (and how to use them!)

This is how I, personally, make my sigils and reap the greatest rewards. You can use whatever methods you see best fit, or use sigils someone else has made with their permission.

Before I start, I clean up my room and my altar to rid my room of stagnant or negative energy. I clean my room, then sound cleanse the space to ensure that nothing is sticking around to steal my energy, or mess up my sigil-making process. If this is something I feel I really want, or may need, I will light a candle of the corresponding color to meditate with. 

1. Think of a phrase or word that portrays what you want in a concise manner. If you choose a phrase, make sure that it is written in present tense like you already have it. If you do not, then you may internally block yourself from being able to acquire your desires. Also, ensure that it will benefit you for the better and harm none intentionally. 

DO: 

I am happy.

Happy. 

I have abundance.

Confidence.

Prosperity.

DON’T:

I want to have more money.

I need to grow my account.

Please, please, please, please, give me [thing].

2. Write it out, cross out any repeating letters or vowels. I write it out and cross out the letters a couple of times to make sure I didn’t miss any letters. The longer your phrase is, the harder this part will be, hence why it is better to start small.  

ABUNDANCE 

B D C

3. Use the letters to make a design, or assign the letters to a number using the chart given below.

B (2) D (4) C (3)

After assigning the letters to a number, write the numbers 1-9 in a circle, but not in order. Write them in whatever order feels right. You can change this whenever you want.

After you write out the circle of numbers, you are able to make your sigil design! In my example we are using the numbers listed earlier, starting in the center then going to each number (starting in the center isn’t necessary).

Now you have a basic shape for your sigil! You can stop here, or add more detail to your sigil. I, personally, turn my sigils into mini artworks because I am artistically inclined. You do not have to, but I feel like it helps focusing your intentions further if you put more work into it.

This is the final product! Use colors that correspond with what you want to amplify it.

I set them as my Lock Screen or Home Screen to put them in my subconscious mind. I also put them on rocks and sticky notes around my room, do whatever works!

Make sure you charge the sigil with your energy, or another energy, so it’ll work. ALWAYS protect yourself when trying something new. You can do this through grounding and meditation, candle work, sunlight, or moonlight. You may have to charge it again later, before it has served its purpose. I recommend charging them when you feel it’s energy turn stagnant, or once a month.

Here is a sigil I recently made that is more artsy.

If it works, it works, do what will work best for YOU.

There are millions of ways to make a sigil, so play around with it and find what works for you. Some simply people draw their intent, and that becomes their sigil, it varies so greatly. There is no wrong way to make a sigil.

Sigils can serve whatever purpose you give them, so put a lot of thought into whatever you ask for to ensure it is truly what you want.

Please do not use sigils to control others. (ie. “This person is in love with me” sigils)

Please protect yourself while trying new sigils. I have experienced firsthand what happens if you don’t protect yourself. Protect your energy.

Difference between Spirituality and Religion...

Shoutout to this anon for this wonderful idea.

Disclaimer : These are my thoughts and belief. You don't have to agree with me on each point.

Spirituality

"Spirituality is having your own experience."

Spirituality let's you discover

Spirituality lets you discover and it empowers you to find your own truth make your own believes and it is your choice whether you believe something or not.

Spirituality believes in Karma

Spirituality is what you give comes back to you be it a good deed or a sin. It will eventually find its way back to you and I believe within this lifetime.

It let's you find your own path

It never asks you to walk on a particular path. Spirituality sets you on your own path- one which the only limits are set by yourself. It’s all about following your own heart.

There are no rules

Spirituality has no rules the only thing it has is freedom. freedom to make your own path ; to make your own decisions ; to make your own belief system.

It is based purely on love and not fear

Spirituality encourages making decisions out of love and the pure desire to be the best you can be, for its own sake.

Spirituality unites people

To spirituality all the truth is same, although there could be different perspectives. Ultimately, spirituality teaches us there are no walls, divisions, borders, races, or cultural divides; we’re all one.

Religion

"Religion is belief in someone else's experience. "

Religion tells you what to believe

Religion is black and white we are taught to what to believe in and what not. We don't have a say in what we are believing it is just we have to close our eyes and believe whatever we are told.

Religion beleives in punishment

Religion has always taught me that whatever crimes I commit in this lifetime be it small or big. I have to pay for it in after life to be honest until this date I have never heard anyone talking about the good things I do in my religion it is always the bad things they give lectures on. A famous quote here is "nobody will notice 1000 good things you have done but 1 mistake and everyone notices it while you also pay for it"

You have to follow someone else's path

Religion talks a lot about ancient gods and old stories. And there are some set believes which you have to follow you can't even alter them a bit it has to be done the way it is. They were made by someone else and we are just following their path.

Religion is rigid

Again the same point but religion is full of rules and there is no freedom like some of the rituals are so so so so planned that everything should go the way it is and you have to do it like your great grandfather's use to do.

In religion their are alot of fears

Throughout religion, there is lots of fear. The afterlife, particularly, is a big one. There are very specific rules that create real problems if they’re not followed.This can lead to psychological complexes and insecurities.But choices made from fear never produce the right results.

Religion seperates people

To each religion, their story is the only way. All others are false. And I don't further need to explain it.

I thought that brief description to each point will help you understand better. So, I added that.

My theory : Now this is my theory and you can have other opinions. So, I think that all religion stems from deep spirituality. Jesus and Prophet Mohammed, for example, all had deeply profound spiritual journeys before they embarked on their own. Each religion has beautiful souls, but anything that carries the negative aspects of religion will hurt the progress of humanity…and the world.

Hiii!

So correct me if I'm wrong, you work with deities, right? I was wondering if someone gave a food/drink offering to a deity, would it rot? Do they have to replace the offering every few days or nah?

Hi! Yes I do :)

So, this really depends. Back in the yknow ancient days, people would typically leave the offering alone. However, most people nowadays aren't comfortable with "wasting" food like that, so I would say most people who work with deities will either not offer food or they'll eat the offered food themselves.

Now, I have seen people just leave the food, I see it more with Chthonic deities, and oftentimes they'll either compose the food afterward or just throw it out (but again, most people aren't comfortable with just throwing it out so they're usually not doing so).

How often you offer something to a deity depends on the deity you work with and yourself. Some people try to do it every day while others can only do it every now and then. And there are other kinds of offerings, not just food! For example, every time I'm listening to music, I can offer it to Apollo.

Now that I think of it though, you could totally just manifest that the food never rots hahah

I AM FREE TO BE WHOEVER I WANT

i allow myself to endlessly create whatever it is i want. i hold no judgments over my self, i let my past self go to fully focus on the now— whatever so i desire i can be. the world is mine, there is no one stopping me from becoming who i want to be. there is no obstacle to face. everything is so easy for me. why should i struggle in a world where i have the paintbrush that can paint anything i want? why should i allow self-destructive habits to grow when i can put a stop to it and engage in habits that will help me evolve?
