Praxis First:

Cutigiion Part I

Following is the first installment in a series of posts chronicling my attempt at synthesizing sigil methodology in some way with servitor creation (Re: Aidan Wachter), using the petition and the cut-up as a spiritual bridge (spiritual as in "in the spirit of" not something of spirituality or spiritualism), to stretch the edges of my sigil praxis.

I suppose these practices are already pretty clearly interrelated but maybe I'll break down the concept more thoroughly in a later post, who knows.

Goal → The Servitor

The way I like to think of servitors (for now) is that, yes, they come to my aid to fulfill a purpose and leave once the purpose is fulfilled (like the way political parties are supposed to work) but I like to think of them as compilations of necessary qualities needed to complete whatever task at hand. Think of the qualities as separate piles of sand being sort of vacuumed up together to inhabit the same space, and then dispersed when the task is completed. (I’d like to keep thinking on this analogy.)

I've had a really rough year when it comes to my love life and I thought, I'd like a servitor to help me find a healthy connection that suits me.

In the execution, I want to emphasize language play, the aesthetic of script, a push and pull of organization and fluidity.

I know it's corny but I'm really going through it, ya'll. You can surely adapt and modify this to call a servitor forth for any purpose.

Estuary A → The Petition

Write my desire for my ideal lover and all the characteristics I want in them. pls don't judge if u can read it, I decided not to censor this so you can fully appreciate the flexible quality of the handwritten word! Fill a page with words but don't overlap them. I chose to break up sentences but you don't have to if that doesn't feel right to you.

Starting with the leftmost side, I go from top to bottom and transcribe each letter on the next page in the order I see them, identifying whole rows as exclusive to a single letter.

Once I've gone down a column on the first page, I take a red pen and cross through the letters I've recorded then move on to the next column and repeat.

When every row on the second page is spoken for by any given letter, I rotate the page 90 degrees counterclockwise and continue recording and overlap here, if necessary continue rotating the page as it fills up.

A Note On Decision-Making

maybe I don't need to create an entirely new type of deck and I should instead focus on building a framework around an existing tarot deck. maybe an expansion (or adaptation) of existing systems like qabalah/tree of life.

i do want it to be a game to be sure, but something more or something else in parallel?

✼ wants to do a tarot spread but cannot decide which spread, wants to pick one from 66 available books on tarot -> let the cards decide?

66 can be divided by 22, which is how many trumps are in the deck, let each trump represent three of the 66 available books

now ✼ has three books to choose from, going a step further...

every decan in the zodiac corresponds to one of the small cards in the minor arcana (except the aces), that's three per sign

there are several ways ✼ can move forward and might be explored later?

✼ can now choose a card from the small cards with numerals 2-10

aura-soma is most-definitely at least 90% scam that preys on the rich (👍) and the remainder is like psychology, perfumery, and esoteric buzzwords but this is fascinating ngl

how can the Key Scales be applied to the minor arcana?
