Hello,
I want to begin drawing and using sigils. Before I begin, I'm asking you /x/ members instead of Google because I'd rather hear this from live people instead of premade articles, blogs, etc. Makes it feel more personal I guess. And there's the added part where I could ask you questions.
Ok, so...to start off, I'm completely lost spiritually. Started out in life being Christian. Not anymore, haven't been for years. I have no faith as of now. I was wondering if you needed a Goddess/God to use spells, incantations, sigils. Which faiths use these things?
There's just something about drawing something with meaning versus mixing herbs that gets me. But anyway, how are sigils so powerful? Do you need to believe in them? Have they worked for you? Can you use any writing utensil to do them or does it have to be done in some ritualistic way with special ink or whatever?
Any info for starters? Basically a beginner's guide from your standpoint? Note, that I will be researching on my own. I'd just like explanations and answers first as a sort of introduction.
Thanks and hopefully this can turn into a good thread.
>I was wondering if you needed a Goddess/God to use spells, incantations, sigils.
imo based off of what I've read and personal experience, not really. Especially with sigils. You just have to believe in the power of your own subconscious. It would help to invoke some sort of godform for aid in your practice, but even then you don't have to have any lasting faith in the entity. You just have to believe in that moment.
I want to know more about this subject, it piques my interest. Anyone willing to give a run down? I'm a total newb too.
I'm pretty sure that the sigils you're looking for are called something else. it is a concept that is covered a bit in the book Black Arts by Richard Cavendish.
actual sigils are signatures for stuff like astral beings.
What I do know is that you don't need a deity to use these, and you made the right choice by leaving Christianity, it just destroys spirituality. it's the complete opposite of it
Baphomet doesn't exist, does it?
>>17648240
Baphomet is just a symbol not an entity
>>17649068
Still hit it tho
>>17648240
Baphomet is known by many names. Some groups call It the God of Witches, while others recognize that from It derives other spiritual energies and entities. Some call Baphomet a mere concept, others identify It as the Prime and Absolute All, the Grand Architect, Herald of Light and Darkness.
It honestly depends upon how the river speaks to those who encounter and make supplementation towards Baphomet. There are a hundred answers for this very diverse power.
I recommend checking out the Baphomet Codex. It's more esoteric than scholarly, but nevertheless an enjoyable read in exploration of Baphomet. http://www.doverpara-tech.byethost7.com/lib/wicca/The%20Baphomet%20Codex.pdf?ckattempt=1
Does anyone else have any vivid nightmares that's the had as children? I remember this one nightmare I had when I was 5yrs old.( I know I was 5 because my best friend from pre-k who left after that year was in it. )
In the dream, my friend & I were sitting in my living room on the old couch I used to have. We turned on the TV & distorted colors came on the screen with incredibly disturbing faces. There was also what sounded like distorted & really eerie 8bit music that came from the screen. My friend & i started crying. I distinctly remember how loud the creepy 8 bit music was with my friend's crying. The faces also started coming closer & closer. I woke up before they could do anything.
I just turned 23 & I still remember how frightened I was by that dream
I recall a nightmare from when I was six years old and I reckon it was heavily influenced by thumb thumbs from the first spy kids movie. I remember these bags of goodies that were sold by Street vendors which contained sweets and some cheap toys-- one toy that stood out most was this gag hand that was made of foam. All the kids were buying the goodie bags and parents thought they made great gifts. I gave into the fad and purchased a bag of my own and I ate all the sweets but the only toy I got was the eerie foam hand that when held felt stiff despite thinking they were soft. The best way I can describe what holding the thing feels like is the dead finger trick but with the entire hand. I remember being home alone and I was sitting on the living room floor when this crimson red fog gradually filled up half the room. I stood up in a panic and I couldn't see my feet or the carpet but could faintly make out objects like our couches. The upper part of the living room looked like it was illuminated by red light bulbs which I figured was because of the fog that rolled in. I tried making my way out of the house when I felt something clutching my ankles and my heart skipped a beat when I realized it was the foam hand that somehow became sentient. I bumped into our coffee table and jumped on the couches trying to shake the hand loose. I was terrified of the feeling from touching it as well as giving it a chance to snag onto my arm or even worse-- my face. I eventually knocked it off by banging it against a wall and swatting it off my leg with the remaining fingers it had on me. I ran in circles praying that I wouldn't run into it since it was well-hidden when I managed to swing the front door open and escape as the hand crawled after me in a similar fashion to the one from the Addams family. It was a sunny day and like many horror movies, I tripped and flopped onto the ground. I looked up to find my best friend atop a building refusing to help me at which point I awoke.

I used to have really terrifying dreams as a little kid.
There was a recurring one where I would be face to face with a horrific witch, unable to look away as she gnawed at me endlessly.
There was another one so scary I can hardly put it into words, It was like I was in a large gathering of people who were all gleefully committing suicide with strange- inhuman clown like ushers assisting.
There are different spellings for this thing, also called "the tree of life", and I am not sure if they are right. I just wanted to have a thread to talk about it and specifically discuss some general topics about it. I am also interested in hearing /x/'s idea of what this is:
1. What this is in pic related (Qabalah)
2. What it is used for
3. What do you learn from it?

Anyone else feel an activation?
All my life i wondered why I was here, I feel I know now, and I feel it is part of progression for future generations and potential future lives.
I once considered myself as highly spiritual very much into the occult even if I did not know what that meant... Many an out of body experience, my first being when I about 5 - 7 years old. Very vivid experiences, enough to convince me that life after death was real, but since then my life has been never ending shit.
Until now because I found purpose and comfort and lose all fear of death, this is truth a gods work and they are super genius, in the months that have past I have less attachment to immoral things, a lot more clarity without any extra work. I've always thought of my self as a firm believer in a higher power, I've played a little with so called black magic with tremendous results but always they eventually failed because of this problem....
That problem being this world, its full of bad people that always shut us down, they prevent our spiritual evolution through various means most certainly they have labelled us as nut cases.
That has hurt me and probably all of you, /x/ you're not nuts, but you are also not perfect, the journey is long and hard, we are all in this nightmare and we all want it to end...
I'm going to instruct you all what to do to maximize energy, then you are going to focus that on one thing, I'm sure this has been tried before but this time its going to be used as a weapon, it will work if you do exactly what I say, it will be used to solve problems in the world.
I will need people with knowledge in magic to create the correct sigils for this to work....
Process
You will sleep for about 4 - 5 hours
Wake up and stay up 4 hours or till you get tired again
Sleep for 8 hours and trip balls.
In those 8 hours you attempt to break out of the so called matrix and become lucid.The process is really simple when done right, the problem is just becoming lucid, if anyone ever tells you anything else they are full of shit, i've lucid and OOBE since i was a kid and so i know how it is done...
I can't say exactly what this is for until we have established enough workers, this will be a military operation make no mistake its not for the light hearted, but to anyone who ever wanted to astral travel i will teach you like I've done in the past for a few people that struggled but that was for fun, this is for purpose.
The astral never should be messed with but I feel this is a means for positive action that is important, I need very serious people, people willing to listen, people who have the patience (very important) I have not done any of this stuff for years but something important came to me, and I feel obligated to act on it like my life here depends on it, but not just my life the life of you and all people and future generations. At least when we start doing this we can gain more information, if they tell us to back off we will, if not they tell us what to do, they are never wrong, they know far more than you can imagine, this is why its dangerous and needs strict control.
I don't know why I was called upon, the last dreams I had weren't much but they are becoming more and more lucid so i know i'm being hailed, i'm being shown things like failures of companies, false accusations with lack of real evidence, i know it relates to what is happening in this world right now, but I don't see connections yet. But its too deep even for /x/ to go into detail, perhaps too deep for my brain but the last dream involved a company called galaxy who were like the richest most powerful company on the planet that basically kill anyone that gets too close to the truth. I forget the name of the virus they inject into their employees, but symptoms appear and then the victims are put onto drugs created by them, thus victims are controlled.... It is very sketchy at the moment, I did not gain full lucidly, I got very close, I remember thinking to myself I have dreamt about this while in the dream, the whole thing was 100% real to me, full solidity and colour like I was watching a real life movie. When I woke Up I was shocked because I don't dream like that unless it truly has meaning.
I was inactive for a long time in this field, there is something that i can't ignore and its asking me due to my political stance to do something.
I know this is a long shot, but if anyone is interested send a mail to [email protected] please no spam or troll, it would be pointless i'm 35, i will just block you. Upon contact I will need to assess your competence and mental state, if I feel you need work i will do that discreetly, do not be offended if I do.

IMPORTANT The following is defensive measures IMPORTANT
Due to the nature of reality you could already be a target, remain calm.
Follow this exactly and immediately in the exact order, if in anyway you feel or start feel uncomfortable;
Bring your feet together whether sitting or standing.
Imaging the colour brown, like tree bark.
Close your eyes, separate from thought/mind, ignore thought.
See that you are part of everything, see that you are everything.
Ignore thought.
Brown as the earth you came from, brown as the tree rooted to mother earth.
Now shield your self from all evil with golden light, know that your higher self can never be destroyed.
Know that fear is their weapon and it has no effect over you.
brown is in the image in the first post

What, you mean make somebody a superhero or messiah?
I'm not sure. On one hand, human beings inherently want to help one another. It's an evolutionary development.
On the other hand, there are some deeply torment people out there, and humans are not always best equiped to deal with everything.
Probably not. Even if they were a really nice person, absolute power corrupts absolutely.
what is the most scary thing you have ever experienced?
for me it was a form of schizophrenic solipsism during a few bad trips.
Funny you should mention bad trips. Once, I was on about 2 and a half tabs of LSD with my friend (can't remember the actual dose off the top. but it was more than I had ever done before). We had been eating grapes and watching TV and generally having fun tripping balls. I guess I over ate or something, because I ended up throwing up all over the living room. Usually, this wouldn't be a huge deal. I'd just clean it up. But when I looked at my vomit and saw all of the grape peels and parts. I couldn't shake the thought that I had literally vomited up either my lungs or guts. As a fellow tripper, I'm sure you know that once a thought pattern gets reinforced. it's crazy hard to break that pattern. So, I spent the next several hours convinced that I had just died and that everything around me was just the process of going to the void. What made it worse was that around the time all this was happening, I heard police and ambulance sirens outside my house. It was at this point that I was absolutely certain that the EMT's and police were about to burst through my door, and I was going to watch, disembodied, as they failed to try to bring me back to life. Later in the night, I found myself certain that my roommate was actually the angel of death and that he was watching over me, waiting for me to accept my fate. I couldn't break the illusion until my other roommate and best friend came home from work. I still think about that often, and honestly it had me fucked up real good for a few months. Although, in retrospect, I'm glad it happened, because I think it gave me some insight into what it is like to be unable to be in reality.
tl;dr - Don't eat grapes on two and a half tabs.

>I'm sure you know that once a thought pattern gets reinforced. it's crazy hard to break that pattern.
yeah absolutely
it's the reason i stopped tripping.

Omg I love that card
I live in Alabama and explore the woods quite often. I have a cabin on my hill behind my house where many of my buddies hang out at. Behind that cabin is a trail that leads deep into the woods, and I mean miles and miles. I've explored many of these woods and came here to post pictures if anyone is interested.

sure, let's see what you got.
I love nature, please post the images.
You know there is something really awkward happening to me, I have more than one personality inside of me and i know about that, they talk to me and try to control me but sometimes some of them they dissappear and only one voice talks to me and even controls me, I tried to film me once and every time that thing controls me I become an animal I am kind of bone dry like of blood, I want to fight all the time and I crack myself everytime I receive a punch of kick and then I fight the guy until he bleeds then I taste his blood, I even wanted to harm a friend of mine, the guy who filmed me, but everytime I go to a psychiatrist he/she talks to my personalities and they don't know shit, or say it is just combinations of them that they can't control, the weirdest thing is that sometimes i hear a voice in my head which sounds very evilish, and everytime i change we snap our fingers and do or say something, but when that thing comes up, I just go down breathe by my mouth and laugh like there was no tomorrow, I feel like wings coming out of my back afterwards and like fire in my hands
Anyone something to say about that, and maybe some explanation?
