Good point. To extend that thought, if you are in need of incorporating numbers into your sigil (I don't recommend it... numerology has it's own
powers...), you can manifest the numbers in any way you see fit. Certain sigils you see but probably aren't aware of use repeating instances to
signify numbers, such as a certain number of stars, or rays of light. I'd definitly learn about the significance that numbers play in everything
around you before doing such, though. From my own dabbling in majick, numbers mainly signify a set outcome... and alot of the time that outcome has to
take a set path, thusly acting like a bulldozer through buildings... that certain path isn't as flexible, and that is when karma gets you and
paradoxes occur.
I really wish I would've kept some kind of journal so I could remember what I've done sigils for in the past... you really do forget about them
after they've manifested themselves if you don't keep notes on it.
From what I've understood, the supposed 'Necronomicon' was supposed to be a guide for raising and binding demons using their ancient sigils. It's
been so long since I've read it, though... and I didn't go mad, btw... or maybe I did and don't realize it, lol.
A good book to read for the application of majick is Anton LaVey's Satanic Bible. It ultimately comes from Crowley background, but it covers some
techniques that have come in VERY useful.
One technique that I've found for banishing your space is stripping down naked. If you aren't comfortable with yourself being naked, you can cover
yourself up. The way I use this is that I am exposing myself and create a mental vulnerability issue. Dwell on that vulnerability and open yourself
(mind) up as much as vulnerability as possible... I like to walk out into the living room, or stroll through the house. Once you are confident that
you understand your vulnerability in physical AND mental, then you prepare your space or person by building an effective 'bubble'. Some motivational
speakers talk about the "Happy Bubble" that you can create to ward off negative people. Anyone who has sold vaccuum cleaners or other door-to-door
sales will most likely have heard this.
Basically that technique is the same as doing geological survey before building a skyscraper. You have to know your vulnerabilities before you can
cleanse your space. The better you focus on blocking out any outside disturbances, the better the sigil or majick in general works. That is the whole
reason for rituals. Whatever ritual works best for you is what you should use.
So, what I can remember about my use of sigils is that I have never written (consciously) a sigil. I'm one of those that are REALLY attentive to
geometrical shapes of nature. I see birth to death not as a circle, but a spiral leading to another unique spiral... triangles in leaves, etc. I've
wished for something and basically saw a natural sigil in front of me, be it in the clouds, grass, pavement, or buildings, and noticed that it will
manifest itself again when the 'deed is done', so to speak.
Ok, I'm babbling now... just want to make one finalpoint that can't be stated enough... in doing majick of ANY KIND... wish noone harm at all...
unless it is your particular wish, but remember that same majick can come back to haunt you and will manifest itself in a karmic way, whether
purposely induced by another, or through the reverberations of your outcome. On that note... if I could catch any of the warmonger leaders practicing
majick in this manner, I would probably impose deliberate karma (and suffer the consequences, as long as it benifits the earth as a whole in the
end)... use the masters own tools to dismantle his house.
