Description And here's the fanciest magickal circle I've made so far. I actually made it back in March, but now that I know how to use the macro function on my camera I was confident enough that I could get all the detail and colour to show up. and with a bit o' help from CS2 I made it all dandy.

Anywho! about the drawing itself, it's Prisma colours on drawing paper that's 11"x 14". Odd shaped papers are such an inconvenience when you can't scan them onto a compy >.<

The first ring in the center stands for the 7 planets, 7 stars, 7 metals, etc. etc. etc. The next ring is the 12 zodiac, starting with Aries and going in order clockwise. The third ring stands for the 10 Qabalistic spheres (Sephiroth), starting with Kether and going clockwise in order. Then there's the directions out side of the circle and N stands for earth, E is air, S is fire, and W is water. Then there's the seasons 45 degrees off set of the directions. starting with orange (spring) and going in order clockwise. to do this again I would use very different colours on the seasons, it's just that I didn't think it over at the moment.

You've prolly noticed the Yin/Yang in the circle, then there's the 6 sided silver star (not meant to be the Star of David, but can be if you wish it) and then the gold pentagram ontop everything else.

I made this piece not intending to put an intent on it or anything special. I just desired to make a pretty magickal circle Plus, if I had made it for a purpose other than art, it wouldn't be on here.

nice work... have you ever tried using sigils in your art? im currently studying the Lesser Key of Solomon the King, or at least Mathers translation... I want to learn the sigils for not only ritual use but artistic... mabye summon the spirit and bind it to the artwork, but then again that might piss it off...

No I haven't yet. I haven't really gotten into that much because I do my work based on what I interpret symbols to represent and such. If anything, it's more like I am making sigils, instead of incorporating them.

I love the seasons in the corners the best. I don't know much about all the symbol stuff.
