The “I am a piece of shit and nobody will ever love me” factoid is actually a statistical error. You are actually are fantastic and infinitely worthy of people’s company. That person you used to care about, who taught you to hate yourself by abandoning you, is an outlier and should not have been counted
Aries: shows off more than usual, is energetic and lively in your presence, wants to tell you all about themselves, acts quickly Taurus: will organise for you to hang out, be shy around you but bursts with emotions and happiness on the inside, very upfront about it Gemini: anxious and shy, might stutter or have trouble expressing themselves properly, will ask you a lot about yourself, will agree with you a lot Cancer: a glance across the room, a flirty text but everything so subtle you won't be able to tell. loads of compliments and they'll cheer you on Leo: charming, dresses nicer, touches hair a lot, compliments all the time, will probably just tell you that they are interested Virgo: extra nice to you, always wanting to talk but extremely nervous and overthinks everything you say, will be quiet around you Libra: presents their best qualities, flirty, will shower you with compliments and be much more aware of their looks and what they say to you Scorpio: might stalk you, try to get your attention by walking in front of you, stares a lot and asks others about you, it's very obvious if they like you Sagittarius: will invite you out, be loud with their friends but shy around you, will engage conversation a lot but expects you to make the first move Capricorn: will be very shy, quiet and nervous around you. they won't know how to approach you, will gather loads of information about you before getting the courage to talk to you, is helpful and gives you advice Aquarius: will want to be your best friend, talks about you with their friends and family, will be very helpful and nice to you, acts like they don't like you, smiles a lot Pisces: will daydream about you and imagine scenarios, speaks highly of you, might touch you a lot, and be very positive and happy whenever you are around
Sigils, for me, are the most easiest and basic of magicks that you can do. In a nut shell, they are symbols that represent an intent, powered by activation (either from the sigil or just keeping its meaning in the back of your mind) and are used to tilt luck/the universe in your favor.
There are many different types of methods to create and activate sigils so I will go over a few. (This is long so Im going to put in under a cut)
Creating A Sigil
When creating a sigil, you must be in a calm environment were your an focus all your energy onto the sigil you are creating. If you somehow are distracted, look up, of find yourself drifting off to space, sorry, but you have to start over entirely. The sigil you were creating will not work like you wanted it to.
Strike through method
This method is one of the first that you should learn. First, you write out your intended meaning, for example, “I will have a good day”.
Next, strike out all the vowels (you can chose to include “y” as one, I do), and then all repeating letters.
What we are left with, I turn into capital letters because it will make the next part easier.
Then, you turn the letters into simpler shapes like lines and circles (”g”s I just turn into swirls)
Finally, keeping our original sentence in mind, we create a symbol that seems right to you can will represent its meaning. (It may take a few times)
Your finished when you find something you like. You might want to circle or bold that one you like best.
Given meaning method
Another method can be used with the same one as above or you can create a symbol or drawing that relates to the meaning you want.
The First example I have is using the method above as the beginning but instead of using a sentence i used a word or two.
Instead of the sigil being made of the meaning, you give the meaning to the sigil after it is created.
The second method is just creating a symbol that you feel represents the meaning of your sigil.
This particular sigil I use in all of my books and journals so that my family dosen’t look inside them. It has proven useful so far.
For sigils like these I use runes that I found online as the words just so its even harder for people to understand what it means and what is inside.
Activating a Sigil
There are so many different types of activation that I really don’t have the time to go over them all. Feel free to Google them yourself, there are many great websites out there that will explain them for you.
Burn Method
This method is pretty strait forward. You draw/write your sigil down on a piece of paper and rip it close enough to the edge of the drawing to minimize paper burned. (It is okay if you accidentally rip part of the sigil. It will still work.) Next, obtain a fire proof bowl or cup and burn the paper sigil inside to contain the ash. The ash can be used and/or kept for the purpose of the sigil (I made one for a tree I transplanted so it would grow strong in its new home and put the ashes in the soil) or it can be thrown out. By burning the sigil, the energy is released into the universe to do its purpose.
Stress on the Body method
No this does not mean you have to go into a stressful situation to active your sigil. This method needs just your body. By doing a stretch, (any type is fine, even just touching your toes, as long as your feeling a stretch) you build up energy. At the same time, think of the intent or look at your sigil. When you feel enough energy has built up, relax your body and the energy is released.
Write then Wash method
You will need a pen or pencil and some type of medium (paper, dry erase board or even your skin). Write your sigil down, think about the sigils purpose, and erase or wash the sigil away. Short and easy.
Activation when Needed
You might not always need the sigil then and there. So this is for when you need the sigil most. When you have created your sigil, command it verbally or mentally that it shall only be activated when you need it. The activation could be a trigger, mental or physical, and word, or just commanding it to activate. ( feather-set‘s hotel black box curse uses this method)
Sorry this took so long. Thank you so much for the ask. I hope this helps all the sigil magic users out there.
A few of my personal methods, and by no means a complete list.
Salt, rosemary, and water wash. Combine salt, rosemary, and water into a large bowl. Visualize protective and cleansing energies entering the bowl. Be specific in what you want to be protected from. Use the wash around your home, especially doorways and windows. Create protective sigils using the wash, if you wish.
Chalk sigils. Draw them on the foundation of your house, sidewalks, underneath floorboards, or in the walls if you’re remodeling your home.
Wards. Used to defend against specific things, and keep them away. ~ Hex signs - circular painted symbols. Different patterns and colors have different meanings, but you can always create your own. ~ Spider houses - specific spaces designated for spiders to live to keep away insects and other creatures that are pests or feed off of energy. I use rocks, boxes, and small flower pots, and draw protective sigils on them. ~ Alerts - sound makers hung outside of the home. They alert you of possible harm, and defend against it. Chimes can be purposed to do this. You can also create your own using various items, such as string, wire, beads, shells, bells, anything you can think of that makes noise.
Witch Ball. Clear balls hung up around the home to capture harmful energy, that can be cleansed.
Witch Jar. Jar filled with broken glass, nails, pins, and whatever you feel will protect you. Seal it with wax and bury it in your yard.
Charm bags. Bags filled with protective herbs and items. If you don’t have sachets or fabric, you can use a coffee filter or paper and string or ribbon. Hang them around the house, in a vehicle, or even carry one with you.
Amulets. An item worn, usually jewelry, purposed to protect you from specific harms, such as illness, jealousy, or unwanted spirits.
Glamours. Glamours are intended to make others see you how you want to be seen, or not seen. They can be as simple as a chant, “I will travel unnoticed,” “I will blend in with my surroundings,” “Others will not see me.” Focus on this energy, and push it out of you to create a barrier.
Energy Shield. Choose an element that you feel connected to, and visualize it creating a protective shield around you. For instance, you might visualize yourself surrounded by fire, waves, lightning storms, or tornadoes.
Protection Candle. Charge a candle with protective energy. Visualize the energy as an egg, growing around the candle, yourself, and your home. Light the candle any time you feel you need added protection.
Ask for help. If you work with spirits, ask them if they’re willing to help protect you.
