Illustrated Guide to the Symbols of Spirit and Thought

Sigils are symbolic icons, condensed representations of complex ideas or information, designed for a specific magical purpose. Traditionally, sigils are line diagrams representing the signature of an elemental, planetary, angelic or demonic spirit used in the ceremonial magic developed during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Their sigils were derived from the spirits themselves or divined by magicians using various numerological techniques. In more modern times, Chaos magicians employ sigils as Monograms of Thought, psychological symbols of intent and desire, created by the conjuror in their personal quest of mystical exploration.
