Witch symbols and sigials.

    Happy Pioneer Day! Any who I thought I would share what I learned about symbols and sigils in 

witchcraft enjoy!


    Symbols and sigils are and can be used in witchcraft. These designs are meant to be used with 

intention. They may represent certain elements of witchcraft, or a spell that has been casted. These 

characters can be drawn in salt, water or on a paper with a pen. There are different options and different 

intentions to consider when creating and using these designs.

Symbols:


    Symbols in witchcraft represent something and they can range from zodiac signs to element 

signs to gods and goddesses. We can use many different symbols in witchcraft and they may be used and 

looked at for different reasons. We can use any symbol that means something to us, we can even use a 

peace sign. We can use these symbols to manifest, communicate with and connect.

Sigils:



    Sigils are designs uniquely created by the witch to carry out an intention. Sigils are amazing because 

each one is formed individually, and each is special. Sigils can be created however the witch desires, but

here are some common steps to get you started.

To create a Sigil:


1) Begin by putting an intention into a simple sentence.

2) Remove the vowels from the sentence (AEIOU)

3) Remove repeating letters (MM)

4) Using your single letters, merge them together to create a sigil!

    So there you have it. A simple breakdown of symbols and sigils in witchcraft. I challenge you to make 

your own intended sigil!

Dieties

    Dieties are spirits, gods and or goddesses that one chooses to pray to and work with. Witches may  choose which spirit they wish to work with. You can work with different dieties for different  objectives  in life. It is not necessary for a witch to work with a diety or even have them at their altar.  Working with dieties is meant to be a fun and respectful practice for good.

Different dieties possess different  powers. We may also call upon these dieties  to help us achieve our desires, based on their individual power. It is not required to work with dieties, and some witches prefer not to work with them. It is up to  the witch to decide what parts of witchcraft they will adopt into their practice.     Sometimes it does help to have symbols, pictures or figures present while practicing with the diety, but

Pentacle Art by Sarita Pentagram Art by Sarita      The Pentacle has been seen as good and bad throughout time, it is up to the witch to decide what it   means to them.     Common meanings: Elements:  As said before a pentacle commonly represents and points to the five elements: Air, Fire, Earth, Water and Spirit.
