Ways to activate a sigil

After you are done charging, and filling your sigil with your intent you must go through the process of activating it. Activation is the process of firing your sigil into the universe along with the act of allowing the sigil to work in your subconscious. There are two types of ways to activate your sigil. These two types of ways are passive, and active sigil activation. Both of these types of ways have their own benefits, and it is important to understand how to use both of them, so that you can pick the right one for the job.

Active Sigil Activation:

In active sigil activation the energy is usually released all at once, or in a very immediate fashion. This type of activation is usually going to be done through the act of destruction of the sigil, so that all the energy that has been charged into it can be released and fired into the universe, and your mind can greatly actively focus on the sigil that has been marked upon your subconscious. This is usually going to be used for such sigils that are used once on one particular thing. This is really good for quick, and fiery manifestation, but it will go out, and try to complete its task, and then burn out rather quickly. This type of method should be used on things that you want done that are pretty direct, and will only need to be impacted once.

Ways to activate active sigils:

Putting the sigil on a piece of paper, and burning it in fire.

Putting the sigil on a piece of paper, and submerging it in water until it dissolves.

Putting the sigil on a piece of paper, and ripping the paper in half.

Drawing the sigil in to the sand at the beach, and letting the sea wash it away.

Drawing the sigil in the air with your energy, and pushing through it in order to destroy it.

Making the sigil out of dust, or powder, and then blowing it away to destroy it.

Making the sigil in your mind, and then imagining it being destroyed to activate it.

Putting the sigil on food then eating it.

Drawing the sigil on a firework, and then set it off.

Drawing the sigil on a balloon, and then pop it.

Drawing the sigil on your body, and then wash it away.

Singing the sigil out loud for all to hear.

Playing a music, or an audio sigil out loud for all to hear.

Place the sigil on a piece of paper, and rip it up.

Draw the sigil on a rock, and throw it in a body of water.

Putting the sigil on a cigarette, and then smoking it.

Write it on a dry erase board, and then erase the sigil.

Take a picture of the sigil, and then delete the image.

Writing it on the condensation of a window, or mirror, and then allowing it to disappear.

Writing it in the air with a sparkler, and allowing it to eventually fade.

Vibrating the sigil with your voice.

Signing the sigil with sign language.

Using a hand tapping sigils.

Passive Sigil Activation:

In passive sigil activation the energy is usually released overtime through a very moderate, and controlled fashion. This method is done through the act of keeping your sigil around, so that it can continue to work, and releases energy when it is needed. This may be continuously releasing energy overtime, or being triggered at a certain point to release energy. This makes for a very Earthy form of manifestation. This allows this sigil not to use all the energy at once, but to continue working for an extended period of time, or only when it is triggered. This also allows the sigil to work in a more dynamic way allowing it to work to fulfill its desire, or intent in a more ever-present, and passive manner. It will be use only when it is needed, making that sigil more versatile in its actions. Passively activated sigils will always be active, unless they have a trigger. You will have to recharge your sigils if you are using this method every once in awhile after they get low on energy, unless they have a source to draw energy from.

Ways to activate Passive Sigils:

Putting the sigil on a piece of paper.

Drawing the sigil on your body.

Getting a tattoo of the sigil on your body

Carving sigils into a candle, and lighting the candle.

Carving sigils into soap, and washing your body with the soap.

Making a sigil amulet.

Writing, or carved the sigils upon wood, or stones.

Drawing it in energy upon something

Placing the sigil as your computer, or phone background.

Posting an image of the sigil online.

Drawing the sigil with chalk on the street, or sidewalk.

Having a piece of clothing with the sigil on it, or sewn into it.

Drawing it in a public place.

If you have any other methods of activation, I would love to hear about them?

Ways to charge a sigil

After you have used one of the sigil methods to create a sigil that encompasses your desire or purpose you need to charge it in order to fill it with energy, while simultaneously thrusting it into the back of your subconscious. In order to charge a sigil one must do an act in order to give energy, and focus to the sigil in order to empower it with your mind, and spirit. There are many acts that you can do in order to charge your sigils, and in order to help you figure out what you could do, I am going to provide a extensive list of charging methods.

You can pry CottageGore aesthetics out of my cold, dead, queer punk hands people

[deadxdoll]

Credit to original creator.

[cottagehaunt]

dark cottagecore is the middle ground between cottagecore and cottagegore

[secondhand-skeleton]

The Cottagecore aesthetic but make it Dark

Living in a secluded cottage with your lover to avoid getting caught for crimes you've committed

Stirring your tea with the bones of your enemies

Picking hemlock and poisonous mushrooms while basking in the cold glow of the moon

Black cats and ravens and crows as pets

Planning out your funeral with your lover

Making bread at 3 in the morning as the old cottage creaks and groans at the pressure of the howling wind outside

A lush and beautiful garden surrounding your cottage that looks oh so well fed because of the dead bodies you and your lover buried there years ago

Warm showers to clean the blood off and lemon body wash to get rid of the smell

Drinking tea by the fire that you made in order to get rid of the evidence

Turning your lovers murder victims into meat pies and selling them to unsuspecting customers at the market

Picnics in the woods as the sky booms with thunder and lightning

[fanon-fodder]

I see a lot of cute CottageCore posts out there celebrating all the pure beauties of the world, and that’s

Valid.

But I’m not personally into the idea of an endless spring so I’m pitching my favorite aesthetic

CottageGore

It’s about

The satisfying slick of warm lamb you raised on your dandelion pasture seasoned with garlic from your herb garden and wild shallots from the woods

the firm confidence as you collect mushrooms from the fields knowing all their names and purposes by heart

reading a book by a warm fireplace, feet aching pleasently from a good hunt

spotting a snapping turtle in your pond and feeling a fierce love for the creature knowing full well it would snip your fingers off

The perfection of the color red

Rich smell of earth on leather boots

The pleasurable caress of callused hands

Hard wood countertops scarred with the preparation of a thaosand good meals

The smell of decaying leaves enriching the soil

The whipping cold of winter hardening you against the whipping cold of people

The loyalty of your company (friends or family or just neighbors whoever you count on)

Knowing your place in your own cosmos

Being a benign unagrivated person always settling conflicts and looking out for the little guy but conpletely and totally calable of hiding a body (its good fertilizer;)

Bent tines on pitchforks

Having a little bit of extra food store left over after winder and not being sure what to do with it so you throw a spring cleaning party

Watching a fox chase down and eat a rabbit and watching unblinking

Watching a fox chase a rabbit and grinning when the rabbit gets away

Watching a fox chase a rabbit and aiming your rifle.

Rabbit stew, or fox pelt?

Both if you wanna make yourself proud

Your cottage is beautiful and will stand a hundred years after your death

Planting trees as often as you cut them down

Honestly I could go on for ever, but like basically dark!CottageCore or CottageCore is my life rn and I wanted to share

[daintybeth]
