Sigils of Power and Transformation FAQ
This page is for questions relating to Sigils of Power by Adam Blackthorne.
Q: Step 4 seems quite powerful. Can I use it with other magick?
A: Yes. Whenever you use the ’emotional transmutation’ found in other books, you can add Step 4 from Sigils of Power. It is one of the greatest secrets of magick that we know.
Q: Why are some of the powers the same as powers in other books?
A: This book contains completely new rituals for health, personal healing and many other areas. There is also a lot of overlap with other books. As I say in the book, having more magick to use is a good thing, and this is a completely different method of magick that may (or may not) get you better results. The overlap could have been left out to make a shorter book, but that would have meant withholding a lot of magick from you, which I’m sure would have caused more complaints. However, the book is not cheap, so before you buy, you might want to have a look through the Look Inside feature on Amazon, or download a preview and check out the contents. It won’t appeal to everybody, but if you’re drawn to this, it can do so much for you. There are at least 30 powers that aren’t covered anywhere else in our oeuvre, and many more new powers when you notice that these powers are actually quite different in the way they are applied and the way they manifest.
Q: Why is the book so expensive?
A: We try to keep price low, but the large number of high-quality images makes physical and ebook distribution much more expensive. The other option was to print small sigils and cramped text, but we’d prefer to sell a superior product, because that works well for you. Also, if just one power actually works, that’s probably worth the price of the book. As I write this answer I’ve just seen a review on Amazon that says, “Getting money out of the blue worked with my first try!!!!!!!. Unreal !!!” There are many similar comments.
Q: There seems to be a sigil missing. After the title Inspiring Others, there’s no sigil.
A: All the sigils are there. Inspiring Others is a section title – so it has no individual sigil. As you can see when you read that page, it introduces the ideas that follow and does not describe and individual power. Within the section called ‘Inspiring Others’ there are several chapters, all of which have their sigils. If in doubt, have a look at the Table of Contents on the Look Inside (top left of Amazon sales page) which sets out the Contents more clearly than they ever look in an ebook. The section titles (each with chapters containing the sigils) are: THE MAGICK OF THE MIND, INSPIRING OTHERS, EXTENDED PERCEPTION, FORTUNE, LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP, BREAKTHROUGH MAGICK, SPIRITUAL MAGICK, PERSONAL STRENGTH, PEACE MAGICK, PROTECTION MAGICK, PERSONAL HEALING, HEALTH MAGICK, WISDOM AND EDUCATION, BUSINESS AND FINANCE and EMPLOYMENT MAGICK.
Q: How do I use this magick to help other people?
A: Please read the chapter called The Flow of Magick.
Q: There are many ‘sigil charging’ methods in other Gallery books. Can they be used on these sigils?
A: They can, but the purpose of charging is not to make the sigil more powerful, but to make your connection to it clear. We talk of charging the sigil with energy, but that energy is a way of making sure you are on the same wavelength as the sigil, that you have absorbed the sigil into your consciousness and that it’s clearly connected to you. If you’re trying to make the sigil more powerful, you need to ask yourself why. If this desire comes from doubt or fear that the magick won’t work, or an attempt to force the magick to work faster and more effectively, it may not be the best thing to do. A relaxed approach, where you assume the magick just works is better than trying to bash the magick into existence. Magick already exists, and only needs to be experienced. But, if you enjoy the sigils, feels a connection to them and want to charge them to feel a stronger connection, you can. I should make it absolutely clear that this is an optional extra. Use the book as written and it works. But if you want to you can use Light From The Dark from Magickal Riches, or the Image Fire technique from Wealth Magick, and there’s also a technique called Magickal Chaos Energy in my book The Master Works of Chaos Magick. In all cases, perform any charging before Step 1 of the ritual. Once the charging is complete, continue the ritual as usual.

I just tried something with SOPAT. Sometimes I do things because in the moment they feel right, but I was curious to your thoughts because I figure anything I can think of, you already have.
Lets call it “Dictation”.
In trying to more clearly grasp the target emotions, in each step I dictated the what and why of the feeling. Step 1: “This problem is bothering me and it MAKES ME FEEL _____”
Step 2: “…and I’m DECIDING right here, right now it’s going to change because this is the way it is SUPPOSED to be!”
Step 3: “(the intended result) happened and it was SUCH a RELIEF! Now everything is better because…
Step 4: “It’s funny how all those YEARS AGO that issue was such a big deal and then it just POOF! Fixed itself LIKE IT WAS NOTHING!
So basically, I am speaking my way through the ritual, using key words to trigger the emotion I’m after. Plus, at least for ME…it feels like I am giving the process more discernible “structure”….not unlike how Words of Power requires speaking parts. It seems to make it a bit easier to hit those emotional triggers.
Just curious if that makes sense, or it’s recommended to do it all in your head.
**SIDE NOTE**
You now how sometimes people say that there are sigils missing in Kindle? I noticed that too…till I figured out the issue. Tell people to zoom out the page. I have also noticed sigils that were “chopped” that I wanted to print. “Pinch” the screen to make the text smaller, and the “missing” sigils will appear (like Magick). Ok…that was low hanging fruit…
Hi.
What you’re saying absolutely makes sense. This is what we suggest to people who can’t visualise. If you can visualise, and the ritual suggest you visualise light descending from above, cool, you just picture it. But if you can’t, the workaround is to say,’Light descends from above.’ Some people combine both. Doing what you’re doing isn’t quite the same thing, because it’s not fro an inability to visualise, but i’m just trying to say, yeah, saying stuff out loud can be really helpful. Some people find it counterproductive and mind numbing, or distracting, but others find it really helps. If it’s working for you, stick with it.
With the images thing, I know images can sometimes chop on some devices, but for the people who wrote it was always because they’d misread a section heading as a chapter heading. So they thought Inspiring Others was a chapter with a sigil, when it’s actually a section heading. If I update the book, I might put in a little sentence under each section change, so it’s obvious it’s a section rather than a chapter. That might be a bit more palatable than going for: Section 6: Inspiring Others.
hi Adam,
I have the 72 Sigils of power book by Zanna Blaise. Is this book similar and/or should I have both? thank you for your amazing work and help.
Hi George. No, it’s really quite different. Hard to explain how without an essay. If you can, click on the Look Inside on the Amazon page and you can read the first few pages, or look at the Table of Contents. That should give you an idea; some of it covers the same powers as you find in Words of Power and Greater Words of Powers, but it’s a different style of magick. If Look Inside doesn’t work you can click the free sample button instead – I think it’s the same content.
hi Adam,
Thank you for your reply. I will order your book today. I have a couple of questions I haven’t seen addressed on any of the FAQs. Can 2 people work the same Angel Majick or Sigil ritual together? For example, if you have a partner you write music with and you are both having a creative block, can you work the creativity Angel together or do you need to do it individually? My 2nd question is if someone can observe you when you are doing a ritual? Thanks again for all your help and support.
Hi George. Yes, people can work together. How exactly you do that is a personal thing. You can do it either way. Both perform the ritual together, calling the angel together etc, (or using the sigil or whatever it may be) – this is cool if it’s a good relationship or working relationship, with loads of trust, and if you’re both at roughly the same level of magickal competence. That is, if one has been doing it for years, and the other is on Day One and might feel a bit silly, it’s not the best. But otherwise, yeah, it works. The other way is to both do the same ritual, separately, for the same goal. Personal choice as to which you do.
Yes, somebody can watch you, but if it’s somebody who’s going to laugh or whatever, then no, bad idea. I suppose that’s obvious. But if you’re in a calm, trusting place and don’t feel weird being watched, the spirits are not one tiny bit bothered. Make sure it’s somebody who won’t freak out if they hear noises or sense the atmosphere change or something like that. If it’s somebody else who already does magick, that’s ideal. If you’re demonstrating, to a newcomer, make sure they know to keep calm and quiet and right out of it until you say so. Cheers. AB.
Amazing! Just purchased the ebook… I have a downstairs neighbor whose music to tv can be extremely annoying… Now, the moment I finished the 3rd step of “Make Noisy Neighbors Quiet” … Silence! Peace! I am now trying about seven sigils at the same time! Not sure if this is a good idea, but I will try it…
Oh, lovely. I like that! Thanks for telling me. Diving in with enthusiasm can be great, but you may want to read this: https://galleryofmagick.com/2016/10/20/the-abundance-of-magick/
So glad it worked, and may many more work for you!!!
Cheers, Adam B
