Hello Anon! Great question! It's a relatively short process, but a lot of thought goes into it!

Side note, I do make my sigils on Procreate.

» ․ 💫 !! ˎˊ˗ Sigil wheel

I use this sigil wheel when making my sigils! Credits to WiccaAcademy.com, it's really useful! I don't use simpler sigil wheels because I like my sigils to be more complex, and simpler sigil wheels just make me jittery sometimes.

» ․ 💬 !! ˎˊ˗ Intent

This is the base of the sigil! You have to chose which letters you're going to connect. I do this by stating my intent. For example,

" I attract attention and positive energy "

(I try to keep my intent statements simple to avoid too many overlapping lines.)

Then, I remove repeated letters.

" IATRCENODPSVRGY "

» ․ ✏️ !! ˎˊ˗ Drawing the sigil

This is probably the longest part of the process. Depending on the intent of the sigil, the language of my brush strokes will change.

Following the example from earlier ("I attract attention and positive energy"), I would use flowy, ribbon-like brush strokes or like a calm wave.

Most of the time it's all one consecutive brush stroke, but it can be broken up into different brush strokes.

» ․ 🌈 !! ˎˊ˗ Color association

This is my favorite part! I turn on alpha lock on the sigil layer and go to this color association website to pick the colors I want to use! Normally, I have between two and four colors, though it varies. The placing of the colors is also important!

In our example of a glamor sigil, I would use any three of these colors:

~ Pink, for Lady Aphrodite, and self-love and acceptance. (Can be placed on the outer edges of the sigil for outward acceptance, can be placed in the core of the sigil for inward love, or as the middle ring for general love and pleasantries!) ~ Chartreuse (something between lime green and yellow) for acceptance and cheerfulness. (Can be placed on the outer edges of the sigil for outward cheerfulness, in the core of the sigil for inward acceptance, or the middle ring for general happiness and imagination!) ~ Coral for individuality and positivity. (Can be placed on the outer edges of the sigil for outward uniqueness, in the core of the sigil for inward positivity or the middle ring for general positive individuality!) ~ Fuchsia for certainty and confidence. (Can be placed on the outer edges of the sigil for outward confidence, in the core of the sigil for inward certainty or the middle ring for general uniqueness and decisiveness!) ~ Lilac for kindness and sincerity. (Can be placed on the outer edges of the sigil for outward trustworthiness, in the core of the sigil for self-kindness or in the middle ring for general calmness and serenity!)

Hey everyone! Along with the new 'Minor Deities' series I'm starting, I'm also going to start posting sigils that I make as I step further into witchcraft! Feel free to comment, reblog or use. (Please be sure to credit me unless it is for personal use!)

: "This area is protected"

» ․ 🧙‍♀️ !! ˎˊ˗ Intent

This sigil is made for protection. The intent behind it, put simply, is "This area is protected." It was made using a sigil wheel on Procreate. I decided to make the design somewhat loopy, while still keeping a 'sharp' aspect of the sigil.

In more detail, I made this sigil with the intent to use it during rituals. Any sort of ritual. It can be drawn on the ground, displayed on the wall, burnt on a piece of paper (however you take that statement) or just in the general vicinity of your ritual/offering/prayer/altar space.

It can also be placed in any area, such as your bedroom, house, garden or any other place you can think of. It's supposed to banish negative and hostile energies, since I was suggested by @flamingwitchery and many other people to start by looking into protection magick.

» ․ 🌈 !! ˎˊ˗ Color association

I also played around with color magick in this symbol, as it is a quick and easy way of doing magick without making it too obvious. This is because I am in a highly Catholic household and I don't know what my parents' reactions will be, so I do not feel safe telling them about this yet.

The color association is black and blue. Black is on the outside to banish harmful energies and hostile or negative beings or feelings. Blue is on the inside for general protection, and is also intended to be for my Goddess, Lady Athena.

Of course, if you use this sigil, you absolutely do not have to keep the colors I've used here. Use the colors that speak to you the most--and the colors that you will use will likely vary based on what you intend to use the sigil for.

» ․ 🕯️ !! ˎˊ˗ How to use this sigil

Since I made this with an digital art app, my original intent was to keep the sigil intact and within a space, constantly emanating energy and intention.

However, if anyone draws this onto paper (or any other substance), you can use or activate the sigil in other ways. Here are some suggestions!

Destroy or burn the sigil when you want to use it. This will release the energy and intent you have put into the sigil.

Hide it or tuck it away. This will allow the sigil to work in the background as you continue with your life.

Place it on your altar. This will let you know that you are protected whenever you see it, keeping the sigil charged with intent.

Gather things that you relate with your intent. This isn't necessarily using the sigil, but I do believe that it strengthen the effects of it.

: "I comprehend all that I study"

» ․ 🧙‍♀️ !! ˎˊ˗ Intent

For this one, the intent statement was "I comprehend all that I study". It's intended to be written in the cover of a notebook to encourage motivation for studying and truly understanding the work.

It was made using a sigil wheel on Procreate. I used very fluid strokes with the intent of making the process of studying more fluid--It's also a much more complex sigil than the others I've made. It's split into different brush strokes, so that it encourages studying in intervals and breaks between.

Of course, you can use it any way you want.

» ․ 🌈 !! ˎˊ˗ Color association

I used four colors on this sigil rather than my usual two. I used this color symbolism chart.

There's green on the outside for outward growth and prosperity. Pink on the inside for inward acceptance and self-love, because I do tend to beat myself up if I fail during studying. Cobalt in the inner ring for my Goddess, Athena, and for enlightenment and productivity. And finally, the middle ring is cognac for general prestige and competence.
