LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

Since March, I’ve been creating sigils to help folks navigate the pandemic.  I started with the Immunity Booster Sigil back in March, and then as I switched to teaching classes online, most of my Sigil Witchery classes produced a sigil that aligned with the cause.  In every one of these workshops, the class works together to craft a sigil collectively.

I’ve been posting them here as they were created (at least ten more so far), but as we finish up the year and face new challenges, I figured it would be helpful to have them all in one place for easy reference.  Some of these sigils primarily focus on physical health, healing and protection, others help with emotional well-being concerning grief or anxiety.  Still other sigils in this group direct energy to social concerns, financial security, and creativity.

Below you will find a thumbnail of each sigil, a quick reference list of what was built into it, and a link to its own post.  The link will provide you with a higher resolution image, suggestions on how to use the sigil, and other important details you should know before using the sigil.
