Personal Astrological Sigil

This is a short post on Natal Sigils -

In essence a sigil is simply a sign or image that has being imbued with magickal properties. The purpose of a Natal sigil is to direct the subconscious mind, aligned with astrological aspects to accomplish the desires or needs of your conscious mind, as well as draw forth a deeper connection with the soul self as represented through the Natal chart.

It is said that our subconscious mind requires symbolism created or maintained by the conscious mind to motivate it to accomplish desires as well as forge a deeper link with the higher self.

Of course, there are many different theories on Sigils and their uses, and beyond that many more different ways to create them - below is one of my favourites:

A basic natal sigil works by applying assigned astrological principles, that utilises the natal charts planetary positions, through a numerological procession and forged into a image.

Procession used in example:

Sun
Moon
Mercury
Venus
Mars
Jupiter
Saturn

Completed Sigil:

I have personally used the above sigil pattern in forms of honorary and elective astrology, as well as horoscopic placements to empower a working on a specific day, or having it tied to an event etc.

With a bit of simple adjusting you can alter the flow so that not only does it represent the positions of the natal planets (or selected day, moment of ritual) but an accumulation of planetary associations and virtues.

Example: For an increase of intuition the assignment could be Sun (illumination) – Moon (Intuition) – Jupiter (expanding) and so fort.

I am a fan of the amuletic approach (with slight artistic adjustments, as I enjoy a curved and more natural look then those of sharp angles) and often burn the sigil into wood, carve into taper candles, twirl into blessing water, weave with incense, or as in the example picture below design with modelling clay (which I added corresponding essential oils too) the applications it seems are as unlimited as the imagination of the person who uses it.

How would you use yours?
