Sigil It Just A Little Bit

lacartetreizieme: [Posted at the srz blog. Might as well share!] SIGIL ALL THE THINGS: * Start with Gordon @ Rune Soup's Sigil Reboot and then move on to everything else he has written about sigils. His approach makes the most sense to me, especially with regards to not having to forget the sigil once you've created it. * Go to Phil Hine's website. Lose the next 3 months of your life. Profit! * Must read: Pop Magic! by Grant Morrison * Background reading - the father of modern ChM, Austin Osman Spare * Oh, if I must - TRADITION! * A folk magic approach and, in the interest of fairness, a rant * Here. Have fun. * A tutorial for creating easy sigil mandalas * Using magic squares * Gettin' Ceremonial up in hea-yah with the Rose Cross Sigil Creator * Alternatively, use a witch's wheel * Hazel's elegant sigils * 3-D crafted sigils by the Man in Mink * An example of sigilising, from Frater U.D.'s Practical Sigil Magic * It's a magic binky! Sigil scarf - great for empaths/introverts/anxiety balls to wear in public * Sigil poetry by King of Wands * 5th Aeon's Neo-Terraphim Alphabet of Influences, based on A.O.S.'s Alphabet of Desire * Oh, the possibilities! CircleArt * Don't forget teh lulz * You're going to see these words a helluva lot: servitors and egregores * Leveling up - using sigils to create servitorsSUGGESTED SUPPLEMENTAL READING: * Basic Geometry (it's totally Mathematical!) * Sacred Geometry (it's totally Art!) * Robert Anton Wilson (I feel there is a strong link between quantum dynamics and ChM. JMO.) * Alan Moore's thoughts on magic (just... tie a rope around your waist before you go in) * Bindrunes (proceed with caution: runes have their own inherent magic)
