Praise for this book
“Magick practitioner Podgurski ( Wandering on Course) presents a deeply personal system of sigils and rituals discovered through years of practice in this thorough handbook...Drawing from the work of intellectuals and practitioners before him, such as Aleister Crowley, John Dee, and Carl Jung, Podgurski includes text and illustrations from both historic esoteric texts and the author's own journals.”
“The publication of Podgurski's Grid Sigil in an accessible format should be welcomed both by practitioners and aficionados of ceremonial magic, and all fields of inquiry where the ontological status of nonhuman 'persons' quite generally is of concern.”
“Podgurski's work is a tour de force of magical self-examination--an eloquently composed and elegantly presented treatise deserving the attention of every student of modern magick.”

⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
This volume presents a bold synthesis of Enochian magick and modern sigilization, appealing primarily to advanced occultists. The Grid Sigil concept offers fresh utility for those exploring embodiment and universal connections. However, readers seeking straightforward, step-by-step instructional manuals or light-hearted introductory texts may find the rigorous metaphysical inquiry and philosophical contemplation overly dense. It demands a serious engagement with scientific principles and historical angelic systems, which might alienate casual hobbyists. The blend of geomagnetism and shamanism requires an open mind to ancient systems. While intellectually stimulating, it is not suited for those preferring simple, dogmatic practices or those unfamiliar with Renaissance thought and complex esoteric theory.
