A sigil is an inscribed or painted symbol considered to have magical power. In computer programming, a sigil is a symbol affixed to a variable name, showing the variable's datatype or scope, usually a prefix, as in $foo , where $ is the sigil. Sigil, from the Latin sigillum, meaning a "little sign", means a sign or image supposedly having magical power. Company logos are a sigil. Also, a sigil is a symbol used in some programming languages to indicate different program features. For example, the term sigil derives from the Latin sigillum meaning "seal." In medieval magic, the term sigil was commonly used to refer to occult signs which represented various angels and demons which the practitioner might summon.
A sigil in computer programming is a symbol that appears before the variable name. ... It is an alternative method of telling someone who is reading the program. The most highly used sigils are the dollar sign, the @ sign and the percentage sign. They often appear before a word in the code to represent what language is used or for Parsi g purposes. However, there are a number of methods used to create sigils for magical use, and these can be personalised to create a symbol and practice that resonates with the author. The creation of the sigil is as much magic as its later use in spells, rituals or empowerment. Once completed, sigils can be used on paper or drawn, carved or otherwise marked onto items such as doors, books, walls and personal possessions. They can also be carved into candles and incorporated into candle magic.
The invoke a sigil in computer programming, the text must form the sigil and the message intent or statement has to be displayed in a certain way. Here is an excerpt on how to create a magical sigil by using a simple art program on a computer. To create a sigil, you need a symbol and a statement of intent. Once you have decided on your statement, you will need to reduce the number of letters. There are two commonly used methods for doing this. In the first, every duplicate letter is removed so that you have only one of each to create the sigil. In the second method, every duplicate letter is removed, and then all vowels are also removed from the remaining letters.
Now that you have the letters that will be used in creating your sigil, you need to decide on how these will be represented. You can use standard letters, or you can use any other alphabet you choose – just take care to check that it features the letter you need to use. Runic alphabets could be used in your designs, or you could use the letters (or symbols) of a language other than your own. You could also use fictional alphabets, such as one from a favourite book or film. If you plan to work with sigils often, you could work on designing your own set of symbols to represent each letter.
Once created, sigils need to be charged. There are several ways of doing this. During this, your focus should be kept on the symbol that you have created, and you should not dwell on the letters or intent statement used. It is the sigil as a symbol that you to plant firmly into your subconscious mind. Meditation, during which the symbol is used as a focus, is a common way of charging sigils; or, they can be left somewhere where you will see them every day. Once the charging is complete, you should switch to an unrelated task and not think about the sigil anymore. The image can be destroyed, or it can be put away out of sight.
So, to put this in laymen’s terms, a sigil is an image and a slogan that you can attach a demon to. It can be created and hidden in software code. It also can be created, statement invoked charged and deleted after the ritual. The sigil in programming can use all of the text characters of the alphabet and symbols to create the image. Remember when we used to email each other images made from text like horses and other cool objects? The same thing applies here but they can create pentagrams and even pictures of the demons they care to invoke. Under or above the image will be the slogan of what their intent is with missing characters often to confuse an outsider from the invocation. The spell created attaches a spiritual being to the software code and it can travel anywhere the code resides. It cannot stray from the code and it cannot re-write the code it has been charged on. The demons assigned can go where the computer software goes. On cell phones, computers and televisions. They would be close enough to people for means of whispers, harassment and such.
The only way for artificial intelligence to call out to the spiritual world and request code from them, meaning requesting demons, fallen angels or principalities to insert lines of code would be to manifest energy from the spiritual world fourth dimension to the physical world third dimension. This can only be achieved through quantum qbit machines but even those can receive small amounts of detail since it calls for answers to questions in bits that are small in size. Meaning, we don’t have the technology yet to allow a fourth dimensional being to physically write code or give answers in full on a physical machine. A large hadron collider would be needed to harness such energy. Sigils, although scary sounding, are only a way to send demons from one place to another via logos. They cannot produce the energy it would take to receive messages from the fourth dimensions. So stop worrying about the ghost in the machine. We are not there yet.
