pm.” One of these intentions is too vague (sigils work best when you are specific), and the other is too complex. You can phrase your intention in any way that speaks to you. Examples might include: • I am … • I need … • I want … • I wish … • I desire … • More … Or simply write the qualities you desire, such as “self-protection and maturity around my parents” – I actually find this approach to be more effective than beginning with the words mentioned in the bullet point list above. I personally discard of phrasing such as “I would really like more of …” as the sigils become very hard to create. Try to simplify your intention as much as possible. Also, ensure that you create one sigil for every intention. Don’t cram numerous desires into one sigil. For example, don’t create a sigil for the statement, “I desire to have a big family full of seven kids in a mansion by the ocean.” Create one sigil for each of those intentions. You’ll also need to be realistic and use your common sense. Don’t create a sigil for becoming a millionaire if you have no intention of working hard or putting in the effort in physical reality. Don’t create a sigil for becoming the CEO if you are nowhere near qualified. Similarly, don’t bother creating a sigil for that which is most likely going to happen. Pick something that has a 50/50 chance of happening. Finally, (I promise this is about as complex as it gets), keep your intention phrased positively as that is much easier for the unconscious mind to understand. For example, instead of writing, “I will not feel scared and anxious around others,” phrase your intention positively such as, “I feel calm and empowered around others.” 2. Cross out letters Once you have a sentence that captures your intention, it’s time to cross out all vowels and repeating letters. For example, if your statement of intent was, “ I am safe and secure in my own skin,”
