Hello!
I wanted to try Sigils in magic, but I was not able to figure out how to arrange the alphabets, like suppose you draw H, then would it work to overlap & draw other letters in the same - say I assume it's a sleeping! 'I' too as well and also a sleeping T. So H is now H, I, T!
Is such arrangements suitable?
I`m sorry, the information given is not enough to answer the question. What`s sleeping? Why is there `H`, `I` and `T`? Why do you want the letters to overlap? Are you trying to overlap their meanings?
H, I, T are my examples,
The Letter I if rotated towards the left, turns similar as Heavens
H, and also If Letter T is rotated towards the left looks like H just without the bottom.
By overlap I mean over inscription, while you do arrange letters to make a diagram / sigil.
You aren't persuaded to use alphabets in making sigils. A sigil is simply a drawing, it doesn't really matter what you draw. the Sigil gets its meaning by the meaning and intention you give it.
Agreed. If you want, you could use other personal symbols that you feel are significant to the intent of the sigil. Simple geometric designs can have a lot of power if you connect them with sacred geometry. You can also use lettering and runes from other languages to convey different ideas; Nordic runes are popular, as is cuneiform language and Kanji/hiragana/katakana. If you have a study of Hieroglyphics under your belt that could be used as well.
Like with any other magical practice, it is more about what you connect with, and what has a personal significance in representing the purpose of the sigil.
I just arrange the remaining letters of my Sigil in a pleasing way, Letters can be superimposted upon each other, as long as you write the letter so you know it's there. It can be forwards, backwards, upside down, etc. Any way, you the creator, likes.
Just do whatever feels right to you. I usually don't overlap letters, but that's just my opinion. Feel free to do whatever pleases you, even if you don't think many others do it that way.
(Also, I've found a few good websites by just searching "witchcraft sigils".)
