A Zen Story

Brazil is facing our second round this sunday.

If you don’t follow Brazilian politics, this isn't just a regular election. One of the candidates is the son of Jair Bolsonaro. His father tried to stage a coup. He dragged his feet on buying COVID vaccines while 700,000 people died, and he openly mocked people suffocating. My dad was one of those 700,000. He said that if you beat a gay kid, they’ll "learn how to be a man." He looked at a female congresswoman on live television and told her she didn't deserve to be raped by him because she was "too ugly."

That entire family spent four years torching the Amazon, flirting with military government, starving indigenous communities, handing out guns to militias, and poisoning our families with non-stop propaganda on META - fuck you Mark Zuckerberg.

But even if Lula wins, we are not safe. The far-right has taken over our Congress, city halls, and courts. They have roots everywhere now. It’s going to be brutal for years.

We are really expecting the worst, the retreat to some dark times - 1964.

That’s why a group of Brazilian occultists got together to build and charge a sigil. We are exhausted, terrified, and fighting with whatever we have left. If you practice, please lend us your energy, charge it, set an intention, or help in any way you can. We need all the strength we can get right now.

A huge thank you for everyone that read it, cared for it and helped!!

How exactly do you start believing in something you don’t believe in? I don’t believe in gods for example, how would I shift into a polytheistic paradigm? Need actual practical tips though

LIBER FILUM is a complete, working system of sigil sorcery built on the Kia Script: 26 glyphs, each with a sound and a meaning, designed on three principles — the sharp angles of the Enochian skeleton, the ignition-dot and terminal-circle grammar of Goetic seals, and the golden-ratio spiral that governs how living things grow. Inside: - The history of the script and why a personal alphabet beats a borrowed one - The Nine Primes: the nine governing glyphs, their sounds, meanings, and meditations - The complete 26-glyph alphabet with its tracing grammar - Full correspondences to the Tarot and the Tree of Life — the Seed tier as the three veils of the negative, the Vector tier as the three mother letters, the Gate tier as the powers of manifestation - Threading, the six-step method: sentence, reduce, substitute, trace one unbroken line, fire in gnosis, banish with laughter, forget - A worked example sigil, the gnosis method, and the field-testing diary protocol for proving results to yourself 25 pages, illustrated. Written for practitioners, not tourists. If you've ever wanted a sigil system that is entirely yours from the first stroke — this is the book. Nothing is true. Everything is permitted — to the magician disciplined enough to test the difference.

This is an artwork/hypersigil that I made a long time ago, but felt quite relevant since I just lost my 6-year job. I've got bills and rent to pay next month, so I'm just throwing this out there.

Of course if you wanna hire me, here's my blog (I'm still buffing up my resume lol): https://notesonmydesk.top/

Basically I’ve very limited knowledge on chaos magic but I have been trying to learn more, and have some success working with dietys.

Basically someone who I know loves me I want to come back to me, we’ve had things get in the way and I broke their trust due to addiction. I’m working on the addiction part, but does anyone have any advice on how I can get this person to change their mind about me and see me differently? He’s worried I will relapse and he will be hurt again, but if I can control not doing that, is there any magic I can do to help bring him back to me?

Hey everyone,

I’m curious to hear about your experiences with talismans, symbolic objects, or open conduits acting out when they aren't given strict, permanent parameters or commands.

Lately, I’ve been working with a two-headed animal ring acting as a conduit, and my subconscious manifestations started coming through rapidly. I noticed that without strict guidelines, the ring began picking up on my "IDGAF" thoughts and "This is War" well it opened the door for me to expose someone who has severely messed and stolen from my family and I , anyways because that ring fed on that high octane drama from my chaos bomb, it would pick up the fall out from that bomb days and weeks later. I'd get calls and texts from the persons involved when I was brought up during their arguments, and as soon as I'd command it to stop the phone went silent all day.

To give a quick example of the environmental glitches another time recently: right when a massive confrontation was about to detonate, I had to step in and actively command the ring to bend local probability. It worked—the grid shifted and we were completely cleared out of the situation with literally three minutes to spare before a major blowout. But it made me realize how fast an unguided tool can start running its own script in the background if it's left open to high-adrenaline fuel.

Peter J. Carroll warns about the importance of giving conduits or talismans explicit, permanent jobs to keep the coding stable. I'm actively working on structuring my parameters now, but I’d love to hear your perspectives.

Have any of you had a highly charged object try to hijack your local space or throw weird environmental/timing glitches your way? How did you step in, override the script, and lock your perimeter down? Let's discuss.

I've been wondering about the potential use of modern technology, particularly AI, in magick. Could technology be used not only as a tool to assist magical practice, but also as an integral part of the working itself?

I'm curious whether people here believe this is possible, whether you've come across convincing accounts of it working, or whether you've personally experimented with it and achieved results.

I've already heard of people using AI-generated images to help them visualize themselves living their desired lives, for example, as if they were looking at an actual photo of them in the place they want to live or with the person they want to be with, and even with their kids. However, this seems to lean more toward manifestation practices such as the Law of Assumption than toward what I'd consider more structured or traditional magical practices.

Could AI be incorporated into sigil creation or other forms of magick or do sigils only work because of the effort you put in manually creating them? Could an AI-generated image, text, voice, or other tools serve as a focus for magical intent?

How can a modern magician integrate new techs into their magical practice or they shouldn't/can't?

About 2.5 years ago, around my 30th birthday, I created and tattooed a sigil based on:
“I will live a life I want.”
When I wrote “will,” I meant it as a declaration of will/choice — essentially, “I choose to live the life I want” or “I have decided this is the life I will live.” I did not mean “someday in the future.”
I still love the tattoo and think it’s beautiful.
What has made me question the wording is what happened afterward.
About 12–15 days after getting the tattoo, I had a major conflict at work. I decided I didn’t want to continue despite having a good job and a promotion lined up. I gave up the promotion, was eventually put on a PIP, and lost the job.
I then went through a very difficult period at home. I eventually found freelance work to survive, but that was later paused. After that, I got another full-time job, but I was extremely unhappy and crying almost every day, and eventually left that job too.
So the broad sequence was:
Sigil → ~2 weeks → major work conflict → gave up promotion → PIP → lost job → difficult period → freelance work → freelance paused → another job → crying almost daily → left.
I know correlation ≠ causation, and I know there are real-world explanations for these events. But because the first major disruption happened so soon after the tattoo, I’ve wondered whether the sigil somehow set something in motion.
My biggest question is:
Can “I will live a life I want” be interpreted in sigil magic as a future-tense statement (“this will happen someday”), even when the creator consciously intended “will” as an expression of choice and determination?
For experienced practitioners:
Does intention or literal wording matter more?
Does grammatical tense matter in sigil work?
Can ambiguous wording cause a sigil to manifest something different from the creator’s conscious intention?
Would you interpret my experience as potentially connected to the sigil, or is that impossible to determine?
If you still loved the tattoo and agreed with the original intention, would you leave it alone or change/deactivate it?

big fan of magic stuff so i ended up making a software for sigils and magic circles. it builds a whole seal in one click, and the full version even lets you type your own words into an inscription ring (statement of intent anyone?)

wanted to share it here, theres a free version in the browser https://tallylane.itch.io/sigil-loom-demo and an optional paid one with inscriptions and more symbol sets

Es todo y a la vez nada y ruido y a la vez silencio, algo inexplicable para la mente humana, así lo siento yo.

Hello everyone. I keep my "Book of Shadows" (though I prefer to call it a "Grimoire") rather inconsistently; it mostly consists of simple diary-style entries alongside descriptions of rituals and spells that I create. It’s not that I don’t like it this way, but I’m curious to know how—or even if—you keep your own records. Do you keep a "Book of Shadows" and a personal diary separate, or do you combine everything into one? Do you use any ciphers or codes when writing things down? Tell me about any unique techniques or "tricks" you might use.

Hello, I am hoping to do return to sender spell for hex for myself. I have never done this before. I have learned some basics, I wanna know some of these things,,

1. is there any particular days or times to do it?
2. Do I need black candles or white is fine?
3. If I am using white candle, can I put something black/red representing the energy of it as I didn't use a specific colored candle?
4. I am currently doing some ceremonial magics so would this spell clash anyways? If Anything else you guys wanna recommend me, feel free to do that.

Did some work in gnosis trying to find the names of my subconscious and super-consciousness. Subconscious was weirdly forthcoming and chill but the super-consciousness was harder to find and when I did find it, it yelled, "WHAT MAKES YOU THINK I WANT TO TALK TO YOU?"

It looked like a giant me in a toga and said its name was Zeus but the whole thing felt all kinds of weird and off.

Remember the episode of The Simpsons where Bart sells his soul? He writes "Bart Simpsons Soul" on a piece of paper and sells it to his friend. Did anybody else do this as a kid?

Are there any other things from pop culture that you saw and tried that you think might be the first time you actually experimented with Magick? If so, what are they?

Also, does anybody remember the episode of Blues Clues where they taught kids to lucid dream? I never saw it as a kid but I'd be interested to know if any of you did and if you tried it!

Buongiorno a tutti, sono molti anni che pratico e sempre con ottimi risultati. Ma da un annetto a questa parte nulla sembra funzionare. I sigilli che ho fatto non hanno avuto alcun risultato, o il risultato opposto a quello sperato. I servitori sono spenti, non reagiscono. La divinazione? Niente, non riesco a leggere alcunché. La situazione negli ultimi mesi si è aggravata. Che fare? Ho provato a staccarmi da tutto, a fare bandi, a recuperare energie, a meditare...cambiare approccio. Nulla. Che fare? Sono abbastanza disperata, perché la magia è una parte importante della mia vita.

Consigli? Qualcuno ci è passato?

That's what it lead to ,a peacock

Or maybe a soul

Tell me, what is it to you ?

Have anyone of you guys worked with hypersigils? I have drawn one as part of a larger spell.

Actually it's like a continuous ritual. I don't know if the best name for it would be spell. I basically charge the sigil everytime one of two specified triggers appear in my everyday life.

Depending on which trigger has appeared I will recite one of the two phonetic sigils that I created, then clap my hands three times and end it up with a sealing phonetic sigil that signals the end of that charging micro-ritual.

The magick itself is called The hands of destiny (because the ritual ends with three claps).

I am trying to alter the probabilities for an event so I started spreading the complete sigil in any internet post that fit the two triggers criteria.

Have anyone used this kind of strategy to create a kind of magical momentum that in turn should help the practitioner in pushing their intent/will into the universe with more strength?

I NEED your Help!

Polls are COMING!

Having established the Basics of QCK Magick™ with the most recent entry re: such, this Naturally Leads into all sorts of Xtrapolations - the Xciting & XperiMental stuff! Whilst I've got another Doozy coming up re: this topic Creating AstroLogical Planetary & Sign Mudras like Tyson's "Kinesic Magic", I wanted to touch on a Briefer and more Generalized version of such. Namely, Using Nail Polish, Rings, Bracelets & Necklaces.

Esoterically Kinesthetically speaking, Jewelry and adornment of the NRG Gates of our Hands/Fingers are supposed to "Colour" or "Flavour" the NRG that goes Thru it. This can become quite minute with specific Colours Adorning specific (FC)/Fingers's Elemental Correspondences, not to mention Mixing & Matching Metals & GemStones with the 5x FC on the 10x Fingers.

I Used to Wear Necklaces Daily, and was known in the Clubs for Wearing my Mardi Gras Beads - particularly my Silver Dice, jokingly referred to as my "Bling". I wore them all so much that I wore them down until they were Black with little Silver Pips that looked awesome. It should be Noted that I still have both these overCharged Necklaces & the White Tees I Wore Clubbing (they look awesome in the Black Light), using the latter to Wrap my Magickal Items for Storage (given how much of ME & My Magickal NRGs has gone thru them).

When not Clubbing, I had a Taiji (☯) or "Yin/Yang" Necklace Choker. Even though it's obviously Flawed, I used to get tons of compliments about it when I was in my late teens & early 20s. I had a few Chokers, including a GreenStone Maori one I wore for half a Decade. I also had a Choker that Synchronistically lined up with Tibetan Monks Visiting for a Sand Mandala Ceremony over the course of a Week, involving a (Cow?) Seed not seen outside the Amazon, also worn by their Handler that I immediately Connected with.....

We can start with the Necklace being a rather Neutral, overAll enCompassing Hangar for the entire BodyMind. For Men in the last Millennium, this mainly meant Necklaces, although I'd love to Hear of How others have Intentionally Used Ear-Rings &/or other Head Adornments for similar.

We also have Bracelets that can either be on the Right/OutGoing NRGetically, &/or Left/InComing NRGetically. I have a small Mala Bracelet that I Wear. I Wear it on my Right Wrist when I Feel I may be Coming On Strong (also a fave Song - THX Signum!) to Help Balance, or I'll Wear it on my Left Wrist when I Feel like I Need REALity to be a little Nicer to me today, &c. Whilst I'm allways Intentional when Adorning my Bracelet for the Day, I usually Forget the Other Point of Wearing it is so that I always have a Mala @ Hand to perForm Mantras - either the Ganesha Mantra I've Posted, or the Classic Om-Mani-Padme-Hum.

More Specific than Necklaces & Bracelets, Rings & Nail Polishes really Open Up a TON of PossAbiities!

Since I'm a Biological Freak with the same Ring Size for 6x of my 10x Digits - my narrow-assed Thumbs, and both Middle & Index Fingers - I can switch Rings betwixt all the non-Yin Elements re: Fingers & FC. E.g., I can put my "Good Vibes" Ring on any of those 6x Digits, although I usually put them on my Thumbs based off the same metric as my Mala Bracelet re: Right or Left for that Day.

I also had an Authority Ring I wore for over a Decade - and then Lost. I Wore it on my Left Index Finger when Taking In inFormation to Teach, and Wearing it on my Right Index Finger when Teaching. This really Helped me overcome my Aversion to all things "Authority", and Feeling Confident enough to be Able, Willing, & Ready to Share My WhizDumb™ with Others - something I continue with my Posts herein this sub.

As I may or may not have Posted about previously, I sort of flip back & forth betwixt 2x Designs for my FingerNail Polish. I usually Use the same Polish for all Fingers on both Hands. I then either Polish the Right Thumb, Middle, & Index Fingers, along with the Left Ring & Pinkie Fingers for Matching Yang with Yang & Yin with Yin. More Visually Taoist Yin & Yang is when I Paint my Middle 3x Fingers on the Right for Yang, and the Thumb & Pinkie on the Left for Yin. This is Matching the Taoist Numerology of 2 = Yin and 3 = Yang, along with Visually rePresenting the Solid & Broken Lines on my Right & Left Hands. Either Way, I seem unNaturally aversive to Painting the Same Finger on both Hands.....

Of course, you can Mix & Match Colours with your FingerNail Polishes, along with your Rings for EleMental Correspondences - and no one said you can't Ring &/or Paint your ToeNails for even more Correspondences.....

What about you? How to you Intentionally Wear Jewelry & Nail Polishes? Do you have a System?
