Whoever had the chance of reading my Sigils of the Aiq Bekar knows my method of doing seals with the help of this technique. This is method number 2, so to speak, that I use mostly.
This method takes Agrippa’s method a bit further, but keeps within the same lines. We keep the nine major forms that the Aiq Bekar gives us and place small circles as terminations.

This will give us a set of 27 sounds represented by 9 symbols, that is, an alphabet of 27 letters where the forms of three are identical. This is just a way of representing numeric kabbalah, since each letter is identical in form with the one it shares a numerical relation with: Aleph, Yud and Quf are represented by the same figure, for instance, because their values, 1, 10 and 100 are reducible to the same number, 1. Once we have the correct name of the entity spelled in Hebrew, from right to left, we can begin the sigil making process. We take the name of the angel BARIEL to exemplify this.
As
in the Agrippa method, we make new symbols from the merging of sets of
two. Two by two, all the letters of the name will be bound together. We
can make use of the small circles and lines if there are similar forms
one next to the other, in order to make the combination as aesthetic as
possible. I
n
the case of Bariel, we joined the first two and then the second two, a
letter remaining. In order to make a more symmetric seal, we chose to
join the last one as well, thus obtaining two seals meaning BAR and YEL.
We
can either use these two symbols as they are, or we can further join
them to obtain one seal. There is a multitude of ways in which one can
join the resulting figures, depending on one’s fantasy, creativity,
impulse, artistic reasons or simply interior intuition, but also
depending on the length of the name sigilised and thus, the complexity
and numbers of the figures. The two symbols obtained here are quite
simple and symmetric, so they do not pose a great deal of difficulty in
joining them together in a pleasant form.
If we like, we can go even one step further, and process the seal into
another form, by bending the straight angles and making curved lines,
even semicircles or crescents, or tilting the lines in ways we feel it
can better suit the final form of our sigil. The result is often
remarkable, yielding very interesting, simple and original sigils, and
last but not least, effective symbols that incorporate the vibration and
idea of the name chosen.
As
I mentioned before, the resulting simple figures can be used by
themselves as talismanic sigils. Especially when the name is longer, we
have more symbols to use. This method is excellent for divine names and
attributes that we can place on specific circles, diagrams or ritual tools. We shall illustrate the example of ELOHIM TZEBAOTH (Elohim Tzvaoth).
As
usual, we write the name in Hebrew manner and choose our letters
according to the sigilic alphabet listed above. After combing two
letters at a time, we are left with six very interesting-looking
symbols. We could have had only four, but as a rule, if there are two
names, they will be dealt with separately. Even then, we could have
chosen to bind them two or three at a time, but instead we used this
method in order to obtain exactly six figures, because we need six
figures in the talisman we wish to construct.
The
result is the basis of a talismans, which can contain even more names,
seal and sigils, according to our need. This is just one example.
