Sigils Generator
Desiderato Chouinard
Hi, recently I'm working on a research and need pictures to test my work. I found your generator fitted well to my request. But when it comes to the copyright issues, I'm not completely sure if I can use the them on my research and publish the thesis. Could you give me a definite answer?
I don't mean to be "that guy", but there is no such thing as "necessary" within chaos magick. One of its core principles is the avoidance of dogma, and another is that reality is totally subjective based on belief. So sure, you can believe you HAVE to encircle the intended meaning or whatever, but that's not taught as a rule anywhere within chaos magick whatsoever.
I'm afraid I'm not familiar enough with magic sigils (and alchemy, for that matter) to figure out what needs to be adjusted :). Could you give examples of sigils that are too scientific and sigils that are mystical enough?
While I love this for random sigil generations. I would love to see this updated to be used with proper sigil generation. something that allows you to put the intent in then shows the breakdown and then display choices of different sigils that could be made with the intent. this would help many neopagans and Wiccans who are new to sigiles as well as others. If you dont know how sigils are made in the witchy world i'm happy to send you a basic guide.
There are a few methods of sigil creation but most of them have what's called an intent. Intent is in very simple words the desire that lead you to create a sigil. A few notable methods are using a pattern such as a magic square or witch circle to create a path, combining symbols (what this gen does) and chaos magic where you would use a fountain pen or similar writting device where the resulting symbol isn't really methodic and the "style" matters as it's a result of your intent.
The way i would implement this into a program is probably adding an option to force exclusion/inclusion from symbols and grouping symbols into themes and motiffs that can overlap, such as nature, change, etc. that way you choose one or more themes and the sigil is composed from symbols in that category
Really feel the style of Sigils from The Lesser Key of Solomon and some other old alchemical books.
Pretty great for a quick grag of a symbol, or as i do, take some, and re-edit them on photoshop with my digital tablet, to give a more "Handwritten" feel.
Pretty good generator!
That's what people were asking for and it makes sense - it's very easy to add solid background if you have a transparent image, but much harder to remove it. I could add a solid background as an option, but it seems to be an overkill for such small application.
Eventually we plan to project them on to well known landmarks to hypercharge them. We collect the intentions and data points that make up the sigils. We do not collect any personal identifying information at all.
This level of our system is primarily concerned about our physical survival. In seeks nourishment, shelter, physical security and connection. Most of this processes go on autopilot and we just need to take care to regularly feed and rest our body.
In terms of neurobiology this circuit correlates with the autonomic nervous system as described by the Polyvagal Theory of Steven Porges. Brain activity comes from the brain stem, the cerebellum and the amygdala, which is constantly assessing the environments for threats. The basic imprinting of this circuit happens in early infancy depending on the nurturing connection to the mother and determines our fight/flight/freeze responses when confronted with threats.
Increasing intelligence in this part of the system consists in learning to take good care of the physical body and its ability to sustain life, learning to read the body signals from our autonomic nervous system and learning to regulate into safety through co-regulation with others.
This level of our system regulates our emotional response, our sense of self and boundaries and our sense of self worth and sovereignty. The needs here are for self expression, agency, territory, emotional security and certainty.
How we react to threats to our sense of self, our autonomy or the crossing of our boundaries is imprinted by the way our caregivers respond to our self expression and our experimentation with boundaries and how much we are allowed to explore the territory on our own terms. The basic program imprinting run along the line of submission/dominance and influence or will power and ego-streght.
Increasing intelligence in this part of the system happens by learning emotional regulation through co-regulation with others and feeling the feels with presence and self compassion, integrating shadow parts into our full expression, balancing our responses between submission and rebellion to external authorities to ground in our own sovereignty feeling okay with our selves.
This part of the system is in charge of making sense of the world and our experience. It is based on our capacity to create tools and use language to create maps, concepts and distinctions based on duality an logic as well as complex symbol-systems or belief-systems (a.k.a. BS) to create meaning. The imprints to this system we get by adopting our care givers world view and the educational system.
In terms of neurobiology this circuit correlates with the left hemisphere of the cortex. In our civilization most of us run under the dominance of this part of the brain, that thinks it is in charge and self-determined but often is influenced in its function by subconscious processes of C1 and C2.
The need from this part of the system is for sanity and meaning. We want to understand the world with our maps and theories that will help predict the behavior of our natural and social environment. Unfortunately this part of the brain relies more on the available maps and projections on the base of already stored information, than on direct experience itself.
Our sense making depends mostly on the paradigms, narratives and models we use to interpret sensory experience and craft meaning to the random events in our lifes. If we change those, we get to experience a whole different reality.
This is a level where a lot of coaching comes it to catalyze change. Intelligence increase in this area for me is about gaining more mental flexibility by playing around with paradigms, becoming aware of our projections and biases and making our mind our servant for problem solving instead of mastering us with the tirany of logic and concepts.
This level of the system is concerned with social navigation, relating, mating and sexual expression, as well as morals or ethics. The need of this part of the system is to belong to a tribe and to contribute to the collective.
In terms of neurobiology it correlates with the prefrontal cortex. The right side of this relates more to our capacity for empathy and compassion, the left side more to morals and ethical decisions.
Intelligence increase in this circuit for me is about ridding our system from judgement, cultural moral programming and the shame responses, getting clarity on our set of values to form our own code of ethics, increasing our capacity to love and be loved to form interdependent relationships and finding the people that most resonate with you to build intentional tribes. Development in this are leads to a sovereign adult taking full responsibility for their life situation and able to contribute to the well being of the collective.
This level of consciousness opens up our system for experiences of bliss, awe, wonder, flow and play. We enhance of sensory experiencing of pleasure and gain more awareness of our somatic experience, of how our body responds to stimulus from the environment. We learn to listen to our body and its signals even deeper.
Most yogic and tantric practices aim at opening up this level of the system, also cannabis lovers have access to this experiencing. In this states, consciousness focus on the immediate experience of the here and now through our physical sensing. The realm of hedonism and playfulness becomes available.
Experiences in this become available when our C1 level regulation moves towards safety. In an activated state of the nervous system we cannot experience bliss and flow. On the other side experiences of high voltage ecstasy might fry our C1 and leave us feeling like anxious monkeys for a while.
At this level we become awareness of being the pilot of a complex nervous system operating a body playing a character in the game of life on this rock floating through space. At least that is my metaphor for the sort of experiences available through this circuit.
We begin experimenting with the rich pharmacology of our brain and how manipulating it changes our perceptions of ourselves and reality and allows us to play around with creative disorder to rearrange our neuro-pathways, increase neuroplasticity and start changing our programming at will.
This is where Psychedelics, Chaos Magick practice and other form of initiatory rituals come in, that shock our system into opening this circuit. Our nervous systems increases its sensory sensitivity, often our sensitivity to light creating changes in visual perception. The sensitivity to the perception of energetic fields and neuro-electric signals increase enabling all kinds of experiences often labeled as intuition, clair-sentience or hallucinations.
We enter the field of possibilities as the perception of reality becomes non-linear and we gain the ability to choose from the possible reality tunnels available. The schock of uncertainty unleashed by this state can be difficult to absorb for our certainty-craving ego of C2 and cause emotional dis-regulation as we loose control navigating in relativity.
Venturing high without emotional grounding in our convictions might lead inability to bring any of our visions into reality or worse a total inability to make sense to fellow humans and be declared insane or/and become so emotionally dis-regulated that we are labeled bipolar or schizophrenic.
