A repeatable working

The Solar Sigil Card

A daily sigil made at sunrise, published as a card, and closed at sunset.

What it is

To build a small daily practice that produces one artefact and one close.

For seven days, forge one sigil at sunrise, publish the card, and close it at sunset. Use the Sun and Fire. The point is the rhythm, not the result.

How to do it

  1. Write seven intents, one per day, or write one and vary the aspect.
  2. At sunrise, forge the sigil and export the card.
  3. Publish the card with the seed and the date.
  4. At sunset, close the working with a banishing and a ledger line.
  5. After seven days, read the series and keep the cards.
  6. Decide whether to continue, change the rhythm or stop.

What you need

  • The Sigil Forge
  • A card layout or print sheet
  • A seven-day calendar
  • A ledger
  • A sunset close

A worked example

A seven-day series with one planet per day. The Tuesday card is angular and red; the Friday card is round and green. The ledger records the sunrise and sunset times.

How you know it worked

At the end of seven days, ask whether the daily rhythm was sustainable. If it was not, halve it; do not add more.

Variations

  • Use one planet per day for a seven-day planetary series.
  • Make the card private and keep it in a folder instead of publishing.
  • Run it for a group and compare the cards.
Code sketch

This is a sketch, not a runnable program. It names the shape of the automation; the definitions are yours.

for (const day of days) {
  const sigil = forge({ intent: day.intent, aspect: day.aspect, seed: day.date });
  const card = layout(sigil, day.date);
  log({ event: 'card', day: day.date, seed: day.date });
}
