Summary

Plot the letters of a name on the Rosy Cross — the petals, rays and elemental petals — and connect them in order.

Steps

Write the name in Latin letters.Find each letter's position on the Rosy Cross: the 22 petals for the paths, the 12 rays for the zodiac, the 5 outer petals for the elements.Where a letter has more than one position, choose by the letter's attribution in the cipher and say which you used.Connect the positions in order with a single line and close the figure if the name returns to its first letter.Copy the figure without the cross.

Deterministic

true

Renderable

Renderable as a wheel: the corpus's twenty-two paths set in path order, with a letter landing on the petal of its value mod 22. That is a fixed map and it is reproducible, but it is NOT the Golden Dawn's lamen, whose petal arrangement and attributions are its own. A leaf drawing this says so on its method page.

Caveats

The Rosy Cross is an order's diagram with more than one published version. A sigil drawn on one version is not the same object as one drawn on another.
