I did it at last!!!!!!!!

06:00 / 26.03.04

I have launched a few of my pre-prepared Sigils this week, much to the relief of people on here who kept telling me to 'get on with it'

I had bored everybody to death with my questions about how they should be worded and how to best prevent injury or harm to others. I took the bull by the horns (or the horn by the balls if you prefer) and launched three off over a couple of days

Can't remember which or what I asked for so now it is just a question of when or if they manifest.

In the meantime, can I ask a couple more questions whilst I am waiting to be blown over by the results :-)

1: If Sigils work (and I presume they do) What is the most mind blowing experience you have had with this methodology. I know you cannot say with 100% confidence that the Sigil you cast was the causative factor but you suspect that they achieved the amazing result for you

2: Once they manifest and you remember what you asked for, is the work spoiled? For example, of the three Sigils I have launched to date, I suspect one has worked already. The last two nights I have had a lot to drink and yet I have managed ot remain comparatively sober

I usually have an embarrassingly poor capacity for alcohol and now I remember that one of my preprepared Sigils was to be able to stomach more alcohol but drink less frequently.
The evidence of the last two nights seems to suggest that my capacity has increased, does remembering the intent of one of my sigils, potentially invalidate the results?

OR IS IT THAT YOU ONLY HAVE TO FORGET THE INTENT BEFORE MANIFESTATION AND ONCE RESULTS OBTAINED THEY ARE PERMANENT (in your expeeience)

So for example, if you asked to understand Mathematics better and as a result of your sigil, you suddenly grasped calculus for the first time, on remembering the intent of your Sigil, would you lose the ability?

Cheers, now don't forget to wipe.

Re: forgetting sigils... A lot of people seem to get hung up on this. Basically, go blank/void when you charge, try not to think about them afterwards, but inevitably you're going to think about them afterwards. Just go with it but don't dwell on the sigil or the results (i mean, how else are you going to know if you were succesful?). Just let it all wash down into your subconscious as much as possible.

If you forget calculus after remembering your sigil, then you're brain is at capacity and every new bit of knowledge is pushing out some old bit.

forget what?

Cheers to you for moving forward. As for what is the most mind blowing thing for me, well, it has to be that it has ALWAYS worked. Mind you, there is one exception, and that was basically because I couldn't get the desired result out of my friggin head, no matter how many drugs I did. This leads to your next question in regards to getting rid of the lust for result. I simply create sigils, and put them away. It might be weeks, or even months after the sigil is drawn before I charge it, but I know for sure that I won't remember what the hell I created it for. Of course, in a pinch situation, it basically comes down to me distracting myself with anything and everything to get the desire out of my head after it is charged. Just remember to be clear what you ask for. Once I did one for a friend to win the lottery, and she did, but only about 3 bucks. I think I'll be a bit more specific next time.

Try to lose yourself in the drawing of the sigil. This act in itself is magickal and should inspire a sense of spirit.

I've started making all of my sigils on little pieces of paper, then putting them in a special box. This way I can reach in and randomly grab one later for charging.

Ah, while sigils are great, don't forget that you can also create very conscious deliberate rituals to enchant for specific outcomes. You don't necessarily have to blank out and then forget your charm. A very focused ritual can also generate great results.

19:12 / 26.03.04

One thing that I do when I catch myself mulling over a sigil is to simply blank my mind. To still it. I find that this works well, because it has the effect of reinforcing the sigil without the use of discursion, which tends to narrow the range of effectiveness. The mind naturally goes on to another subject after a short time.

It is true that there are numerous magickal methods to bringing about a result, ritual, fetishing, visualizing, servitor creation, and a ton more.To some extent, different methods work better for different things. I created an "anti-stalker" fetish some time ago, (why should be obvious). Since I had it with me at all times, there was no question about forgetting it. I found that using a fetish worked better to provide continuous protection.

thanks everybody

really useful stuff on here

What are your thoughts about the conscious recollection AFTER manifestation.......have any of you had a skill or a sought after change occurr and then when you realise it has occurred, the results have been spoiled?

ie you have sent off a Sigil for a new job, you forget about it and a a couple of months later you get an invite to join a better company.....You remember the Sigil and the job goes to somebody else at the last minute

Anybodyt had any experiences like this?

Somebody mentioned that IF this happened, you would have no way of verifying if a Sigil had worked.....the eventual conscious recollection being important for continued Magickal exploration

I hope that once the manifestation has occurred, the change has taken place and it does not matter IF THEN it comes intpo your conscious mind

Is that right from your experience?

I'd suggest that worrying too much about it one way or the other is more likely to make things go sour. If it works, it works. Don't worry, just let things take their course and all will be as it must be.
