Simple Method for Creating a Sigil

[mistiquemisty]

This is a basic sigil-making method I learned for turning an intention into a symbolic design charged with meaning and focus.​

1) Write your intention​

Keep it short and direct.

Example:

“Banish all negativity”

---

2) Remove the vowels​

Example:

Bnsh ll ngtvty

---

3) Remove repeated letters​

Example:

Bnshlgtvy

---

4) Create an alphanumeric grid​

Assign letters to numbers from 1–9.

Example layout:

1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9
A	B	C	D	E	F	G	H	I
J	K	L	M	N	O	P	Q	R
S	T	U	V	W	X	Y	Z

---

5) Find your remaining letters in the grid​

Example:

B N S H L G T V Y

---

6) Convert the letters into numbers​

Write the corresponding numbers and remove repeated numbers if needed.

Example:

2 5 1 8 3 7 4

---

7) Create a number wheel​

Draw a circle and place the numbers 1–9 around it in any order you prefer.

Then connect the numbers from your sequence with lines.

The final connected shape becomes your sigil.

You can simplify or stylize it afterward until it feels intuitive and personally meaningful.

thank you for sharing, thats really cool. Do you burn it to release it?

I believe burning works

Have you thought about using an online Sigil Generator - it just does the work for you.

Choose your planetary square, state your intention and the result is instant.

I removed the link because it also advertises workshops. Also, if someone writes out a tutorial like this, and put effort in it, it's a bit lame to post about other websites that do the thing for you with a push of the button

 

[Morganna]

I had not realised that there was advertising on the site. I am impervious to it. I still can't see any on the landing page!

However you are the Moderator and I respect that.

One could also make a spiral of letters from to a to z on a sheet of paper, then with a second paper connect the letters from step 3, skipping the numbers part.

But yours will work perfectly too, thanks for sharing!
