You may have heard of the idea that your thoughts and words create your reality, and I think we can mostly agree that there is at least some truth to this. You may have even heard of Dr. Masaru Emoto's Water Experiment where the results were: 'they always observed beautiful crystals after giving good words, playing good music, and showing, playing, or offering pure prayer to water. On the other hand, we observed disfigured crystals in the opposite situation.' thus showing the power of words and intention with scientific experimentation. This was a study I learned about in school, but never really gave any thought to again until much later in life when I started to attend group meetings in the metaphysical realm where this idea and many splintering ideas were abundant.
I soon after learned about 'chaos'/'kaos' 'magic'/'magick' (I honestly have no preference on the spelling) from some friends of mine, that was accompanied with this amazing talk by Grant Morrison that I highly suggest you take the time to listen through, as it explains all this in a much more fun way than I can (I promise it gets awesome once you get past the alien part lol):
So with sigil magic you basically make a statement of intent, which the style of doing this will vary from person to person but I like this way best: "Be clear, succinct and specific. It’s important to write down the thing you truly want, rather than the thing that you think will give you want you want. Writing 'I want a raise at my job' is much less effective than 'I want to make $50,000 a year.' This is particularly true when it comes to love. “I want Brian to ask me out” is far less potent a statement, for instance than “I want to be deeply in love with a wonderful man.” You can also write these in the “I will” format, as in 'I will open my own successful organic bakery.'”
You then take your statement and cross out all of the vowels and repeating consonants "Words are defined by their vowels. As long as the vowels remain in the words, it’s hard not to see them as words rather than symbols. Without the vowels, the letters can represent any number of ideas. We’re taking the sentence away from it’s role as a literal transcription, and making it one step closer to being a symbolic representation of an idea. What about “Y”? It’s up to you. If it looks or feels like a vowel, strike it. If not, keep it."
You then take the remaining letters and create a symbol or picture using the letters or create a 'magical' chant with the consonants (yes this will sound like a made of language and that is the point!). Once you have the symbol or chant you then charge the sigil, which can be done through meditation, masturbation, or sex with the chant being repeated during this time or with the symbol/picture in sight or incorporated in the ceremony. You can then leave the symbol in plan sight or put in a special place, some people burn them or get creative with giving the magic back to the earth. If you did a chant this could be a new mantra for you or a phrase to use when in doubt or for motivation.
Now that you know what a sigil is, let me tell you what I think. IT WORKS! It takes time for the things to manifest, but I assure you, they have over time. My financial goals I have worked on are being met, along with other intentions we have set forth and have seen great results. To me, on the simplest level, it is just word magic that finds a creative way for a brain to remember an intention we have set forth and is a great tool to keep you motivated for your goals. It may not be "magic" as you may traditionally think, but it is word magic that can implant empowering goals deep into your psyche.
I also create image boards, like the one at the beginning of this post, which I keep as my phone screen saver and computer background. This image also feature our 'lakshmi goddess' images with the four arms holding items. This is also a powerful manifestation tool and my proof is that 2 weeks after mine was made, we got our first offer to work on our first pot farm, which as you will see I am holding a pot leaf in my hand! Pretty amazing if you ask me! But I will note this was the fastest manifestation I have had come to fruition using these types of tools.
To me it all comes back to manifestation, which is basically just taking the time to sit down with yourself, find out what you want in life, and find ways to work towards to it. It may sound simple, but society has driven us from doing things as easy this, because we get caught the hustle and grind of daily life! So sit down, find some quiet space and start making your goals and dreams you reality!
