The letter method: Step 2: boil it down to its letters
Cross out every repeated letter in your sentence (and the vowels, if you like), then weave what's left into one symbol.
This is Spare's classic method.
- Write the sentence in capitals. I AM CONFIDENT AND AT EASE WITH NEW PEOPLE
- Cross out repeated letters, keeping only one of each.
- Remove the vowels, if you like, to make it more abstract. Both ways work.
- Combine the remaining letters into one shape. Overlap them, rotate them, flip them, simplify them. The goal is a symbol that no longer reads as letters at all.
- Refine it. Draw a few versions and pick the one that feels most alive.
Try this
Take your intention, strip out the repeated letters, and try three different ways of combining what's left.
Sigil work is a focused intention practice, not a guarantee of any outcome. If you burn a sigil, use a fireproof dish, keep water close, and never leave flame unattended.
