each religion / spiritual belief has their own "sigils" aka objects that represent magical / religious powers. I have some of my own, but here on this site last I knew we could not discuss specific religious discussions. aka christain wiccan budhist and so on. so Im assuming discussions on religious objects of power of any kind would probably be a no post about thing here. what I can say is that in general any objects that may or may not have powers and such are more in the eyes of those who have them. some work some dont and the same doesnt always work the same way for everyone. its mor individualized on whether a person believes they will work then that belief brings comfort.

I personally dont put alot of belief in an object as in they have this all mightily superpowers. I believe theres something out there but I als believe whatever my higher power is they also gave me a brain to use common sense,make my own decisions and that in turn will determine whether my life is the way I want it to be or not.

You can have an apple or orange on the table and be hungry and you can either make the decision to satisfy that hunger or sit there waiting for someone you cant see, feel in any tangible way to reach out, peel the orange and put in your mouth.

objects whether I believe they have power or not are fine and dandy in my household but so is common sense and helping oneself by actually doing the work to make myself and my life better.

Thats as deep of an explanation I can give on the topic due to this site does not allow religious discussions including objects of specific faiths, but I have found that there are many religious and spiritual websites out there on the web and in person places that do allow in depth discussions on specific religious / spiritual objects of all powers.

maybe you can google which ever faith you are with and the sigils that you have found. that way you can find places that do allow in depth discussions on religious / spiritual powers and objects.

A sigil is simply a symbol or seal considered to have magical powers. The concept is found in about 500+ religions and spiritual beliefs. I'm sure we could discuss sigils, if we would like to, without breaking forum rules.

for clarification of my earlier post -

if you look up at the notice in this section you will see this - "No religious talk whatsoever is allowed here in this specific forum, including but not limited to church, clergy, the Bible, etc. Thank you."

and if you read in this thread No religious talk on this forum

you will see this - "This means no religious talk is allowed -- no specific religious figures, texts, etc. will be permitted here. Please see the note about Social Groups to find where such religious discussion occurs within this community."

So for example - crystals are popular sigil that people in general of all spiritual beliefs feel have good or bad or no magical powers.

no problem there right.

but then when you look closer you realize that crystals (popular sigil) are used in various religions.

here's where the problems arise and has come up in the past.

because religious objects cannot be discussed here in this forum, I cannot discuss my crystals collection and how I use them or what they do for me.

another popular sigil (item of power and healing) is a person's bible, or their cross or their rosary or their... the list goes on. No problem right...

but then you look above the forum, and you see that according to the statements and thread posted at the top of this forum all these things cannot be discussed here on the boards. Discussions like that tend to end up leading to hurt feelings and fighting amongst the members posting here.

example... if I post about my crystals and how I believe or don't believe they have healing powers for me. then someone else comes along saying that's hogwash, devils work and so on...

Suddenly you have a forum meant for well wishing, good thoughts, spiraling downhill as each person tries to defend their individual religions and the talismans / sigils/ objects that bring them comfort and others going against those they feel is the work of evil bla bla bla...

open conversations about sigils / religious objects / specific religions have been tried here and I remember well the chaos that happened, those of us that were here back then were very glad when this forum got changed away from religions / talismans / sigils and so forth.

Doc John was kind enough to help those who want to discuss things like sigils, religious objects / specific religions, still be able to do that, just not here in the spiritual forum.....

How to Find Religious Social Groups!

Anyone can go into the social groups; find the group they want to join and discuss these things or start their own social group.

or they can search the internet for a forum / group that does discuss those things. there are literally thousands of sites, forums and groups out there for and about sigils.
