Sigils of the fixed stars and constellations. In the Hermetic tradition — which holds that hidden correspondences link celestial bodies to earthly phenomena — sigils were signs constructed from geomantic figures. These were patterns generated by making random marks and reducing them to rows of dots. Connecting them in various ways produced a unique shape assigned to a star or constellation and used in talismans and rituals to invoke those bodies' power.
