Praise: "To the best of my own knowledge, Tempest has invented an entirely new approach to making and using sigils here, and I think it is an extremely powerful one . . . I recommend this book in the highest possible terms."--Robert Mathiesen, Professor Emeritus, Brown University, and co-author of The Rede of the Wiccae "This wonderful book takes the concept of sigil well beyond the simplistic, basic notions of the [Austin Osman] Spare method, and opens the door on the deeper art and potential of sigils as it applies across the spectrum of spellcraft.

Well done, just not exactly my jam. Still, Zakroff made it intriguing enough that I had to pick this up, and it's a fast, interesting read. The parts I knew (lots of good tips for beginner and very self-conscious, anxious artists) or found annoying were easy to skim or skip, thanks to the headers and not-overly-wordy writing. I ended up with several pages of notes on the things that did pique my interest, and wound up trying some of the exercises (yesgood, everyone should include exercises). I don't see myself practicing anything resembling the sigil magic in this book or that I've seen on the internet, but I will keep playing with the ideas that appealed to me.

Points for the history section with a survey of different applications for sigils/symbols, complete with gentle reminders not to appropriate and lots of citations. Some of those points are lost for misspelling *and* mistranslating segulah (final mem instead of samech; d'oh!), which raises questions about the rest of the section. ( )

Does exactly what it claims to - teaches you the author's personal approach to sigil creation in a simple and straightforward way. I appreciate her decision to include lists for recommended additional reading in the back of the book for anyone interested in delving deeper. ( )

I only gave 4 stars, because for me, 5 stars is 100% perfection. This book is really good, and could be helpful for the beginning practitioner, but the definition of Sigil as referenced in this book, I find to be rather narrow, and without much in the way of historical context. The layout is nice, and it would be great for getting someone started on a Chaos path, or for someone who would prefer to make their own sigils that don't already have hundreds of years of meaning and work behind them. Definitely useful. Not my favorite. ( )

The author is exceptional at making ideas clear and approachable, even for this non-artist reader. She weaves together history, meaning, and inspiration perfectly, providing examples while making it clear how each reader can pursue their own symbolism. She also provides practical art supply tips and other resources. ( )
