Greetings! After studying Spare I had always used 'sigils' in a very personal way. The sigil was created to represent an idea/task to accomplish, then 'energized' by whatever method you decided to use and then, purposefully forgotten.... The forgetting part was to allow the unconscious mind to work on the desired result, the premis being that the conscious mind would get in the way.... I'm sure that there is a better way of putting this... What seems to be happening is that others are trying to use sigils that are developed by yet other people in the hopes of materializing an effect. This will give you an imperfect result. Spare created his own 'alphabet of desire', intending to use it for himself. Instead of creating our own 'alphabets' some here are trying to employ someone elses sigils. In my opinion I find this abit off the mark. As magicians we owe ourselves the experience of getting to know ourselves. We may be able to get results from the use of others sigils but they will never equal the results we could achieve by making our own. Granted, there are many different ritual, spell or formulae that have common enough symbologies to be used by anybody but even these are not foolproof. Being somewhat old fashioned I encourage you all to follow the basics...to a point. But we are all individuals and as such, our methods will vary considerably. I think that this is one of the great truths of Chaos theory but I may be wrong......*sigh* Enough prattle for now. (IMG:
