I don’t really know what people generally call this method of sigil making, so I’m just calling it “Letter Shaping” because you’re using the basic shapes from certain letters. This is the most common form of sigil making, and it allows the most creative influence. As you see above the sigils are for nearly the same thing, yet the sigils came out completely different. Not because the purpose was different, but because I approached them both a different creative way, and that’s what I like so much about this method. There’s a lot of freedom and personalization involved.
When needle and thread, that mends the cloth between my fingers, mends the soul. A patch is meant to hold, fixed by heat, fixed with needle. A decoration covers the damage, not to be hidden but to become a part of the whole. The work goes swift, with quiet chant just under my breath, feels like an old path walked upon. A knot to hold, to hold the good, to stop the fray.
And a safety pin, for accident which can’t be seen until it’s too late.
I’d love to hear your opinions on this. I plan to simply put it, banish someone from my life and I want to include the social media action in the ritual. Has any of you experience with this? Plan is that during the ritual, while saying the spell, I will remove/unfriend the person in question and block them too.
I’ll gladly hear your opinions about this, by reblogging, answering or sending me a message :)

A Spell For Those Not Faint of Heart
Black Dog Phantoms are seen throughout alot of mythology. Often they are harbingers of death and some are said to even cause it. But most importantly…they are a warning. Do you have a hard time determining if a situation is ok or not? Not so great with you instincts… Well If you arent afraid of the big bad wolf, then this could be for you.
You WIll Need:
Jar
Black Candle
humanely clipped toe nails of a dog or a good amount of dog hair. (basically take a dog to be groomed and keep the excess. yep..you will look alittle strange. Unless you clip dog nails on your own. Then you risk looking less creepy. Basically..dont hurt any dogs to get what you need or the spell wont work and can backfire)
Graveyard Dirt
Protection incense of your choice.
White Vinegar.
Take the ingredients and put them in the jar. Seal the jar and like the candle. Drip the black wax all over the top of the jar to seal it while saying.
I call to the black dog of lore
to aid me by warning of terrible things
I call him from across the moor
To protect me from all sorts of fiends.
The black dog shall not give harm to me
All it should do is be heard and seen
when my instinct is stronger and i can be
I will release it back to haunt the green.
Once this spell is cast If at any time you see the black dog with glowing eyes…or you hear a nerve shattering bark..Its best to be gone from that place immediately. Especially be gone before you hear the third bark. After the third bark….well..no one can really say what happens.
When you are ready to release the spell. Break open the bottle in a forest or nice green field away from your home. Even a graveyard if that feels more comfortable. Destroy the bottle and make sure to say it is released once you leave this place.
But do no be surprised if it doesnt leave you alone. It is a phantom dog. They get attached.
***disclaimer***
DO NOT TAKE THIS SPELL LIGHTLY. GO READ UP ON THE BLACK DOGS OF EUROPEAN MYTH AND FIND OUT WHY
Beware, for the power behind this beast of magick is one that we should treat with respect and uttermost careful approach. I am familiar with them, with the feline version (yes, it exists…) as well. Yet even for someone with 20+ years of experience and knowledge, this is NOT TO BE TAKEN LIGHTLY!
From what I know, if you see or hear this kind of dog, if you don’t leave the area, after third bark the Dog will do what it’s duty is: to bear away the soul of a person to the afterlife. So be wary, be careful. Treat it with utmost respect, for this spirit is as old as the Isles themselves…
Meaning: The Yggdrasil or Kundalini, “The axis or process of spiritual becoming.” Upper and lower worlds meeting in Midgard (earth). Rune of the mysteries of life and death. Devoted to god Ullrand to Moon.

Psi: death mysteries, the timeless, kundalini, travel between the worlds, shamanic powers,

Mundane: longevity, initiations, trees
Divinations: In the nature, yew is not exactly the prettiest tree, but the this tree is one with most spring and vitality. No matter what life will put in front of you, you will keep on going, bouncing back. When attacked or in danger, you will withdraw, but only to take a new position and thereby strengthen your power.
