I got into Sigils via comic book writer Grant Morrison, who to put it mildly is a trip, who got it from Austin Osman Spare.
The idea with Sigils is that you form a statement of what you want, then the words of the statement of intent are reduced into an abstract design.
Then you charge the sigil with your intent.
Grant came up with (or popularized) the hypersigil, which is an extended work, not just one symbol.
I tried sigils with no results.
BUT, I taught someone else how to do it, and what they wanted manifested in about 24 hours.
"Those that can't do teach" huh?
sigil, sigil symbols, how to activate a sigil, how do sigils work, sigil symbols and meanings, sigils for money, sigil tattoo
Almost everyone includes "As a Man Thinketh" on their lists, but I have a problem with it.
I'm sure the book is very good, but Allen himself never achieved great fame or wealth.
I know that sounds bad, but if he knew these techniques and they worked, why didn't they help him?
He barely made enough money from his writings to cover expenses...kinda strange for a guy that wrote "From Poverty To Power" isn't it?
Of course maybe he didn't want fame or wealth for himself, just others.
I can't pretend to know his mind.
So the book itself may be well worth a look.

The Master Key System was originally published as a correspondence course in 1912.
The man that wrote the book was Charles F. Haanel, an author, millionaire, entrepreneur, and businessman.
Haanel practiced what he preached and was a self made success who owned several major companies.
You can buy the book, or you can find it in full on many websites of the net.
As far as credentials for this book go, in 1919, Napoleon Hill (Think and Grow Rich) wrote a letter to Haanel thanking him for the book.
That's pretty big praise considering Think and Grow Rich has sold well over 30 million copies.

Now Neville's approach to manifesting abundance was a little different.
He called it The Law, the technique of creating physical reality through imagining.
Neville believed (this is a very simple version) that God is inside you, he knows what you want/need, so you believe (imagine) what you want is already here.
Then you give thanks for it.
Neville was also very big on using this technique to help others.
When you see a homeless person, imagine him as gainfully employed and in good health.
Basically want for him what you want for you.
The Golden Rule so to speak.
Neville has a lot of other ideas that you may, or may not, be able to accept, but he bears reading.
The book that kicked off the current law of attraction craze was The Secret.
Written by Rhonda Byrne, The Secret says that feelings and thoughts can attract events.
Yeah it's pretty much that simple.
Simply put, it's Ask, Believe, Receive.
The book and film both draw heavily on the old teachers of the laws of attraction.
Questions....
Ever notice that the people in the movie are all rich?
How may people do you know that read it became rich?
Just my opinion, but if I'm already a millionaire, it would be easy for me to attract more money.
Back when Steve Martin was doing just stand up, he used to have a routine in his act where he said...
"I am going to give you the secret to becoming a millionaire. It's simple, fool-proof and anyone can do it. First step...get a million dollars. Second step...."
The Secret got to the top of the New York Times bestseller list and the film reached number 1 on the sales charts on Amazon.com.
Now, out of those millions and millions of readers...how many became rich?
Did a global consciousness shift suddenly sweep the world?
Now I'm not saying the ideas in the book and movie weren't valid, but you can't take Wallace Wattles, William Walker Atkinson and Charles F. Haanel's deep thoughts, throw them in a blender and say "Look! This is perfect now!"
Joseph Murphy - The Power of Your Subconscious Mind
Joseph Murphy (The Power of Your Subconscious Mind) was taught by the same man that taught Neville Goddard.
But if you read his books, he took the ideas in a slightly different way.
He also advocated everyone's own belief system, as long as you did just that...believe.
Dr.Murphy said...
“You were born to be rich. You grow rich by the use of your God-given faculties, by tuning in with the Infinite, and as your mind becomes productive and full of good ideas, your labor will become more productive and will bring you all kinds of material riches."
So just what are the tricks to the law of attraction and creating wealth?
Well since I have been studying this matter since 2000, (long before the book "The Secret" came out) I thought I'd share a few basics that I have run across in my journey.
Now bear in mind that I am NOT saying any of these will work for you.
If they all did, I'd be rich right now.
Of course I'd still share my info for free even if I was.
There are many techniques for manifesting abundance, so give these a try if you wish and see what happens...
Wallace Wattles - The Science of Getting Rich
Allegedly, Wallace Wattles got the idea for The Science of Getting Rich from Phineas Quimby's "mental healing movement".
Wallace thought that if your state of mind has a positive influence over how you feel physically, then could it lead to prosperity, happiness and love?
So Wattles began to apply Quimby's "mental healing" techniques to financial and physiological situations.
By the way, The Science of Getting Rich came out before The Master Key System and Think and Grow Rich, so if you want some source material, this may well be it.

Napoleon Hill (Think and Grow Rich) and Neville Goddard on YouTube
If you have read any of my manifesting abundance articles online you are already familiar with the names Napoleon Hill and Neville Goddard.
Well...even if you haven't read the articles, you may have heard of them anyway.
These men were giants in the area of the law of attraction long before The Secret ever came out.
I ran across some amazing videos on YouTube posted by Primeau Productions and 100kwatt by these two that I wanted to share with everyone.
As you may know, Napoleon Hill is the man that wrote the financial abundance book "Think and Grow Rich".
Napoleon was born into very humble beginnings back in 1883 and literally pulled himself up by the bootstraps.
His saying, "What the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve" is one of the stand bys in the wealth consciousness area.
And if you have read his books, you know that his ideas laid the ground work for many others.
(Of course Charles F. Haanel's "The Master Key System" laid the ground work for Napoleon himself to follow)
In searching through YouTube, I found these clips posted by Chriss MKEY of the man himself talking about his manifesting abundance theories.
I never even knew these clips existed.
It is really cool to be able to sit down and actually hear Napoleon explain his principals.
Here is the first video.....
Napoleon Hill "Think and Grow Rich" #1 Definiteness of Purpose
Napoleon Hill "Think and Grow Rich" #2 The Master Mind Principle
The second set of clips are posted by 100kwatt, and they are audio only of Neville Goddard.
Neville Goddard was a Metaphysics teacher, that taught and lectured in the 1950s, 60s and 70s.
His ideas of thinking from the end and visualizing have lead to a catch phrase in some creating wealth circles called "Nevillizing".
Again, reading his ideas are one thing, but actually hearing them is another thing altogether.
100kwatt has posted a lot of Neville's lectures, but the last two posted are really cool because they are recordings that Neville made and are very high quality and clear.
This is "How To Use Your Imagination" and "Mental Diets" that Neville recorded in 1955.
Neville Goddard How To Use Your Imagination
Neville Goddard Mental Diets
Again, you can go to 100kwatt's YouTube channel, take a look around, see the other clips and even subscribe.
While Napoleon Hill and Neville Goddard may seem miles apart as far as their ideas go, I think the best thing you can do is sit down and listen for the similarities.
Like I have pointed out before, I have seen myself through observation (and a lot of trial and error) that what works for one person may not work for another.
Maybe its the individual beliefs, mindsets, ideas that cause this, but look at it this way.....
Let's say you wanted to play a musical instrument, and you picked the guitar.
You spent years practicing but you never got good.
Do you stay with that guitar, or do you try another instrument that you might be fantastic with?
So try Napoleon Hill's way to financial prosperity.
If it feels good and works...great.
If it doesn't, change up and try someone else.
Keep looking until you find what is right for you.
I talk a lot about Neville Goddard here.
If you want to read a ton (actually I think almost every one) of Neville's lectures, you can go to here to realneville.com and read the lectures here. http://www.realneville.com/text_archive.htm
Now if you prefer to hear the lectures (like I do) you can go to a few places on YouTube.
One is MINDisLIFE ( https://www.youtube.com/user/mindislife/playlists ) that has not only Neville but also Florence Scovel Shinn and Ernest Holmes.
It seems that the two most popular subjects that I have done on this blog in the past year are Carole Doré and R. H. Jarrett. Now I know a LOT of people claim to have had success with their teaching...but my experience has been a 50/50 crap shoot at best. And yes like every other technique out there, when I say that I am not having incredible results, people say it is my fault. But I look at a "Law" like this... A statement based on repeated experimental observations that can be duplicated over and over. What they have is more of a hypothesis or theory.
But...as I said... there are a lot of people out there that claim to have had wild success with both of these people's teachings, instructions, whatever you would like to call them.
If you use "The Emergency Handbook For Getting Money FAST!" by Carole Doré and money starts rolling in and soon you are where you want to be in life, more power to you. The same with "The Famous. Little Red Book. That Makes Your Dreams Come True" by RHJ ...I think that's great.
But neither of these things have had an undeniable effect on my life. And if they had, I would tell you. I would write down scripture and verse as to what I did and tell everyone that reads this blog. Heck, if I found out that burying chicken bones at a crossroads at midnight during a full moon worked, I'd tell you that too.
But the key point is...it would have to work for me and be repeatable. So far I have had a few "odd" good things happen, but nothing that you really can't chalk up to coincidence.
Well as you know I road test every technique that I write about here.
And you may also know that a while back I used The Emergency Handbook for Getting Money Fast with little or no results.
So I wrote it off.
But I also will go back and try these things again to see if maybe a different mindset, time etc, will improve results.
So I decided to give Carole another shot.
Well I did the money sniffing, the "I am one with a tremendous amount of money RIGHT NOW!" and focused on the Heart Chakra.
And some stuff happened.
I got paid by an online source that I really didn't think would pay me.
Another of my online ventures brought in 7X it's usual amount the day after that.
The next day another paid me out of the blue.
Then I went out and passed a Scratch Off Ticket machine.
I thought, "What the heck?" and bought a ticket.
The ticket had 4 spaces and I won 2 of the 4 spaces.
Okay, in total it was a little less than $200.00.
But that was in less than a week and it was happening one right after the other.
Now...will this work on a constant basis?
Well I am gonna try it and see.
And of course I will report back what happens.
Here is the first part of an interview posted on YouTube with Carole.
You know I have done quite a bit of stuff here about mantras.
And most people associate mantras with the East.
But there is a famous mantra from the West that a lot of you may be familiar with.
"Every day, in every way, I'm getting better and better"
Yes it gets a lot of crap from people...probably for being TOO simple.
But does it work?
When Émile Coué came up with this conscious autosuggestion phrase, he had discovered what came to be known as the placebo effect.
Could it be that something so simple could heal you?
Well C. (Cyrus) Harry Brooks wrote a lot of books on Coué, and he said that his success rate was 93%.
The people that weren't helped were skeptics that refused to accept the idea that the "trick" as he called it, could help them.
Now some reporters said that the benefits from Coué's method were temporary and might be explained by being caught up in the moment during one of Coué's events.
Possibly yes.
But could it also be the old thing that once you start feeling better...you stop?
I know I have done that with meds.
You are supposed to take them for 7 days and after 3 days you feel better so you quit.
And you get sick again.
As always, I am field testing this and I will report back later on how it works for me.
Couple of things that I noticed....
One...in pictures, he is almost always smiling.
Two...he never charged a cent for his treatments.

Without a doubt, the most popular person on this blog in 2015 was Carole Dore.
Louise Berlay, RHJ and Genevieve Behrend were all popular, but Carole beat them all out.
Her "mantra", "I am at one with a tremendous amount of money", her "The Emergency Handbook For Getting Money FAST!" and her "smelling money to manifest" were all very popular.
As I said in the article I wrote, it really didn't do a thing for me.
I tried it for 0ver 60 days and nothing happened at all.
But I am not everyone so maybe someone out there has had some success with it.
It really seemed to anger some people that I said that it didn't work for me.
But it didn't.
I'm not gonna lie.
I have always said that if I found anything that did work, I would share it with everyone for free.
So far....that has not happened.
So feel free to try her techniques.
You can get her PDFs online at her site here:
http://www.caroledore.com/eh/eh_x/eh.html
And I DO wish you luck.
I really do hope that it works for someone.
If you have not read "It Works: The Famous Little Red Book That Makes Your Dreams Come True!" by RHJ and "The Magic of Believing" By Claude Bristol, then do yourself a favor and do it.
"It Works" was written in 1923 so it came before 1948's "The Magic of Believing".
RHJ's book may be one of the ones that Bristol read in his quest for knowledge.
The two are very complementary.
In "It Works" RHJ tells you to decide on what you want and write it down making a list.
Claude Bristol says the same thing, but his desires are placed on a card like an index card and he also has other tricks for reinforcing it like the "Mirror Technique."
Also you may note that in RHJ's book, contrary to most current New Thought ideas, he says to to list what you want.
No have....want.
In the follow up book, "The Meaning of the Mark", he mentions several times people writing down their desires as in, "I Want" not "I Have".
But he also does say that you should feel as though you already have these things, so it is a combination of both.
That may go round to where Joseph Murphy said that saying "I have" is pointless at first, because you do not "have" and your mind knows you are lying to it.
He advocated saying "Health" instead of "I am healthy".
Anyway, like I said, if you have not read "It Works" by RHJ and "The Magic of Believing" By Claude Bristol, do it and look for the similarities.
And you can throw in RHJ's "The Meaning of the Mark" for good measure.
Neville spoke of a lot of different ways to reach your goals. Feeling, the audio playback, seeing things visually, it wasn't just one thing. In his lecture "Andrew" he gave a breathing technique. He mentions it twice, once at the beginning and once at the end.
Here is the best that I could do transcribing the highlights of what he says at the end, the gist of it.
"Get into a lovely, quiet relaxed frame, no so called "Holy Attitude", forget that. You're Holy when you are in love. God is love, so if you'd love it for someone else, that's all that you need, that mood. Wouldn't it be wonder IF she actually had it, if he had it, if they had it. So you know exactly what you want now. And then you imagine that you are seeing them. You can see them in your mind's eye and see them vividly. And then breath yourself into a rhythm. They are telling you that they have it. And you are getting yourself worked up, mostly because you know that they are telling you that they have exactly what you know they want the in this world. And then you reach a certain point and you explode. (He mentions earlier breathing in and out and one deep inhalation and then explode) Something actually goes out of you, it's power. And you read the words, "Who touched me? For I perceive that virtue has gone out of me. At that moment she was healed."
"Work yourself right up into that state, then let it go. And do not raise one finger to make it so."
A lot of the time you hear people equate New Thought with "Magical Thinking".
Well it is magical thinking I suppose.
But you can think, feel, all you want, but unless you DO, nothing will happen.
The money, health, wealth, abundance, relationships will not just fall out of the sky.
You have to get out there and do.
Tony Robbins said, "Never leave the scene of an Intention without taking action".
Neville Goddard said many times to do the mental side, but to "go about your Father's business."
Now I have heard some, Reverend Ike for one, say that no matter what happens, if the money has to fall out of the sky, you will get it.
But even he admitted that it was a rare occurrence.
Yes I have seen money appear literally out of thin air.
But it does not happen often and since it is not a reproducable event, it is not a "Law".
It just does happen sometimes.
I have seen people healed out of the blue.
But not enough to call it a law.
Think, feel, affirm, chant, whatever you need to do.
But do as well.
I dont think that you will find a rich person anywhere that will tell you that all they did was affirm and feel and they became billionaires.
They did something.
The money had to come through acknowledged channels.
Listen to the old teachers like Hill, Nightingale, they all teach this.
Now I remember that Louise Berlay said that she locked herself in a bedroom for days and focused on one thing.
Carole Dore has the "I am at one with a tremendous amount of money" chant along with money smelling.
People use attraction sigils.
But you are not gonna hear a single billionaire say that he wished for money until it appeared.
He (or she) did something.
Well, since my last post about the "It Works by RHJ" test, I had to give it up. It was like I hit a plateau and it just stopped working. So I have switched gears in a way and started reading Florence Scovel Shinn. Florence Scovel Shinn was born on September 24, 1871, in Camden, New Jersey. She was an artist, an actress and then later a New Thought teacher and metaphysical writer. If you listen or read her stuff, you will see a lot of similarities with Neville Goddard and Joseph Murphy, but there are also a lot of ways in which they are different.
She wrote three books, The Game of Life (1925), Your Word is Your Wand (1928) and The Secret Door to Success (1940). I really have a funny feeling that her books are some of the ones that Neville read.
You can hear The Game of Life (1925) in it's entirety here:
I started my "It Works by RHJ" test on December 18th, 2014 and I thought I would bring you all up to speed on it.
As I said in the last post, I had a couple of things happen that were beyond the realm of expectation.
But it seems like things have dropped off drastically.
It has been almost two months now and the core ten things that I listed have not happened.
And before you start thinking physical realm vs spiritual realm, let me remind you of what Neville always said, "Test it and see."
He was a big advocate, a HUGE advocate on Faith without works is dead.
People say, "Stop focusing on the material."
Well the material is where I am creating the change.
If nothing happens, to put it simply, it's not working.
Neville always said that you had to have certain things to live your life.
And if the techniques are not getting them, there is a problem with the technique or with you.
So like with the Carole Doré technique, I don't see anything happening in the material world.
But I will give it a bit longer and see if things turn around here.
I cannot believe that I have never done a write up on this book.
But if Blogger Search is to be believed, I haven't.
It Works by RHJ is nicknamed, "The Famous Little Red Book" because it is little (less than 30 pages)...and it is red...so there.
Anyway, the book was written by RHJ who at first didn't want his name being known.
Later it turns out his name was R.H. Jarrett.
The books premise, like all great books like this is VERY simple.
1) You write down in as much detail as possible exactly what you want.
2) Think about it as it is already done (Neville's "Living in the end") as much as possible.
3) Don't talk about it to anyone until you see the the things happen. You don't want their negativity.
The book can be purchased from Amazon or found online in many places for free in PDF form.
Amazon may be one of the best advertisements this book has, because there are many glowing tributes to the book there.
Possibly the greatest tribute is a review by a man named Brad Jensen, whose review is almost as long as the actual book.
Brad starts out saying that, "My annual income is now 35 times greater than it was the day I first read this little book. I have gained houses, cars, boats, businesses, friends, a family, and numerous creative and prospering ideas using the principles set forth in this book."
He even goes on to tell "How to Get Faster and Better Results" in his review.
But Brad's isn't the only review there.
I am in the middle of trying it out myself and I will let you know in a few days how it has worked out.
Right now I have a little over a week left on my 30 day trial run.
But I have to tell you, I have seen at least two things happen already that were amazing and one actually did defy reason.
Like Brad I am not selling the book.
Here is "It Works" by RHJ in it's entirety.
I said it was a short book.

For the past two months I have been listening to Neville Goddard lectures at the rate of about two a day. Is it doing any good? I would say yes. I have seen some things happen that there are really no good logical reasons for. I mean fairly big manifestations that have happened in a few hours.
So what am I doing? You know I have always said if I found something that works I would share it.
First, every day about 2:00 or 3:00 I lay down. I repeat "I am" over and over and over until it feels like it's finished. I know that's hard to explain...but it feels like it's time to stop.
Second, I know there are a lot of variations of this, but I repeat "Wonderful things are happening for *us* right now." "Something wonderful is happening" wasn't working. And I had real results when I switched from "for me" to "for us". Results as in not only did I start having great things happen, but so did other people that are connected to me. And sometimes their good fortune spilled over onto me.
Also, I began to "play" with the idea that everything I said happened. Just imagine that you are God. And your every thought, wish, will comes true. Trust me, you will pay a lot closer attention to your thoughts.
Synchronization...things keep popping up. One major thing is a Bible verse. I thought of it one day. Then the next day, Neville quoted it in a lecture I was listening to. Then I ran across it again online. Then I was reading a chapter in the Bible, looking at a totally unrelated subject ..and sure enough that was the same chapter that the verse appears in.
"So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." Isaiah 55:11
When the verse shows up that many times, it's trying to tell you something.
