In real life here’s a warning
from one technique – sigils can be more powerful
than they appear, for such an easy technique. I once
cast a sigil for a particular desire, and the object
of my desire became an obsession, even when I consciously
realised that it was damaging the rest of my life.
To this day, twelve years later, there is a psychological
scar where I removed the sigil by banishing. In NLP,
which has similarities to Chaos Magick (i.e. dangerous
fascination with results over aims) there is a useful
technique which can mitigate against such problems,
called an “environment check.” Before
casting a sigil, you can use this technique to ensure
that the rest of your personality isn’t going
to rebel or have problems with the particular result
being gained. It is quite interesting that what stops
us succeeding is often the fear of success, not failure!
Check, in the immortal words of the Spice Girls, that
what you want is what you really really want!
