Greetings resident schizos, wizards, witches, and magi. I have a fascination with magical protection symbology. What are your thoughts on them and their efficacy?
>>42587363>What are your thoughts on themI'm a little obsessed with it as well, I've tried to collect information on protection magic.>and their efficacy?Now that's the real question. What's the efficacy of any magic though?
>>42587384>that pic
>>42587363This armour sigil from "Liber Falxifer 2" by "N.A-A.218" has a similar vibe.
>>42587363Depends on what you want to be protected from. The general principle is that you concentrate your intention and willpower into a sigil. The sigil then serves like an anchor point and a bridge between your inner motive and the outer world. They are one of the simplest forms of magic, but you can make really elaborate ones by focusing complex "ideas" into them. If you just copy it from somewhere and expect it to do anything you're wasting your time, that's not how it works. You need to actually do a creation ritual and focus.
>>42587363please dont fuck with the elder futharkI am somewhat content to browse this board knowing that I don't have to deal with zoomer niggers larping as pagans and heathensjust stick to the deus vult shit and keep spamming christianity or psyop threads please
A lot of people claim to use them to good effect, but I'm always a bit skeptical on the origins on some of them. What differentiates a random scribble from a powerful glyph? But then again, if it works, it works.
>>42588402Underrated basedposter who is at least consistent and stands for something/ belives in something. Thanks.
>>42588402>>42589823first, you're a samefaggot.second, whatever edgelord faggot wrote that shitty LARP book, just straight up stole the Norse Ægishjálmur (Helm of Awe), which is an ancient symbol of protection, and made it faggy and "demonic". May the Norse gods piss in his beer.
>>42589898The books in question are very Nordic in origins. >"and made it faggy and "demonic"" Read the sigils instead, they're very practically functioning; not just "visual symbols". >>42587363Another "Protection" themed sigil; this one from Liber Falxifer 1: "The Key Seal of Protection". Try drawing down the sigils on paper to study them closer; when drawn they try teaching you their functionality.
>>42589354One time I casted Elder Futhark runes on a Kabbalistic tarot spread and Odin personally fucked my day up
>>42587363They're interesting enough to spend time on, and clearly meant something to those who came before us.I carry some daily, they function as morale boosters and reminders.
>>42587662I don't know what you mean by that. I just save shit.>>42588402>>42590655Boy, you sure love Liber Falxifer.
Not help or harm
>>42590655>>42588402>the liber shill is backNot this shit again.
>>42587363wards helped cut down the severity of my nightmares by a lotI always suspected my nightmares were mostly being fed into my mind, rather than being my own subconscious productions, they were just too agonizing and extremely twistedbanishing and the use of sigil wards proved I was right
>>42590738I love the algiz>>42590965I had a similar experience after drawing an algiz and keeping it in my room.
Dr. Jackson Crawford on youtube has like the best resource you could ever wish for on a deep academic level understanding of the runes and their origins. Him an Dr. Justin Sledge are probably the two most valuable resources for any serious student of western esoteric studies.
>>42590862>They all seem like wicca (new age) symbols or overtly jewish symbols. Remark that one "tradition" is conspicuously absent. Christians (at least eastern orthodox ones) have been building protective crucifixes at roadsides and villages (the exact term, "troiță" has no translation in english), for millennia. You don't have to look in the history treaties to find them. It saddens me that people look to the exotic for spirituality instead of looking back at the works of their ancestors. Those lie more closer to living memory both in time and geography.
>>42592698Didn't meant to greentext it. Fuck.
>>42587363I made this a while back when our house was having shadow man problems and posted it in my room.They never came into my room.I got the design by looking at several cultures warding symbols and kind of trying to like, reconstruct what the original might have looked like that they were all splintering off from. India, Native American, North Africa, to be that disparate the original would have had to have been pretty damn old.
>>42592698Uh... okay then. I mean, I don't think I have any images of witch marks... should I just go get some off Google?Should I be explaining witch marks? Carvings found in old wood fixtures believed to have been put there to protect homes and other buildings from witchcraft?How about baby shoes in walls? Or cats? Is that too far out of symbols-only?
>>42592698People are prideful of their own intellects, and want to feel like they're innovating. This is why trends are extremely difficult to turn into permanent aspects of culture.
