Month: July 2013
hey when drawing a sigil do you think the order in which the strokes are drawn matter, for example: I am working on a sigil to empower myself to be more courageous. I am using the word Intrepid reduced to NTRPD. would the strokes that make up the N need to drawn first? I feel it should now matter but I wanted your thoughts on this. thanks
For me, the order does not matter. Since the purpose of sigilization is to make the word an abstract image that lives in the unconscious, I would say that the less you make it like actual writing the better. That way, it further removes the lust of result. In my opinion, draw sigils as pictures, not combinations of letters. That all said, I suck at drawing sigils.
It’s been a while since I’ve done a bunch of posts like this. Fair warning, I’m gonna be duplicating a lot of posts in the next couple days. I’m proud of this work, and I want to make sure everyone knows.
As usual, I’m letting my tumblr fans know a couple of days early. The official release date of My Babylon Complete is July 23rd. But you can get it now on Amazon Kindle, and in print on Createspace.
Some of my new followers may be wondering, what is My Babylon? It’s my novel about the occult and dark desires using real-world magickal practices as a basis to tell a story about obsession, love, awakenings, and the end of an age.
In short, it’s something I truly believe followers of this blog will enjoy.
Want to know more? You can get a free copy of the first novella in the series by signing up for my mailing list at jameslwilber.com. You also get a book of commentary on the series that explains the background symbolism and motivations.
All through the week, I’ll be appearing on other author’s blogs. I’ll let you know when and where, as some of them will contain more of my writing on magick.
Once again, you can GET IT NOW, on Kindle or in print.
My Story
An obsessed magician will do anything it takes to satisfy his perverse needs.
My Myth
He turns to forbidden arts to manifest his will.
My Revelation
In doing so, he will bring about the end of everything.
A serial novel about the paranormal and dark desires. The story of a cursed young man who has an intimate view of the Apocalypse. My Babylon weaves elements of urban fantasy, erotic horror, and real-world occult practices to form a unique personal tale that thrills, terrifies, and even enlightens.
In My Babylon, the magus, consumed with longing, seeks to create a replacement for his lost love using a grisly ritual that requires the theft of a body. Through her creation, he learns that he has a much bigger role to play, and that she may be a form of salvation not only for him but for others.
The Complete edition contains all five books of the My Babylon story.
