Sitri: love, attraction, and hidden secrets — a seal made to be carried

Seal of Sitri

A seal is a working tool, not a picture

A seal for Sitri should be a seal, not a picture of one. A picture can be looked at and filed away. A seal can be held in the hand, placed under a candle, anointed with oil, passed through incense smoke, carried on the body, and worn as a pendant through the days when the work is actually being lived. That difference matters more in love work than in almost any other kind, because love work is not done in a single night and then forgotten. It is lived, day by day, in conversations, in silences, in choices about what to say and what to leave unsaid.

This article is about the one-inch cast seal pendant for Sitri. One inch is a working size for this kind of work. It sits comfortably as a pendant, it can be held between thumb and forefinger without fuss, and it does not announce itself across a room. Love work is often private work, and a seal that can be carried quietly, without explanation, suits that privacy. You do not need to explain a one-inch pendant to anyone. You carry it, you work with it, and you put it away properly when the working is done.

Before you order any seal, ask yourself plainly whether you want a working tool or a piece of decoration. A seal that is never held, never anointed, never fumigated, and never carried is not being worked with in the way a seal is meant to be worked with, and in love work that gap shows quickly, because the work itself requires attention, not just possession.

Who Sitri is in this work

In the Grimoire Companion data, Sitri is a Prince who kindles love and attraction between the sexes and reveals hidden secrets. Those two threads — attraction and hidden secrets — belong together, and understanding why will save you from a common mistake in love work.

Attraction is not only about being noticed. It is about being seen clearly, and about seeing the other person clearly in return. A working that kindles attraction without any attention to what is actually hidden — in yourself, in the other person, in the situation between you — can produce a spark that burns out as soon as the hidden thing surfaces. Sitri's association with hidden secrets is a reminder that attraction lives alongside knowledge: what is unspoken, what is withheld, what is not yet understood about why two people are drawn to each other, or why they are not.

Revealing a hidden secret is not always welcome knowledge. A secret can be a feeling that has not been admitted, a fact that has been avoided, a history that has not been told, or a motive that has not been examined. If you ask Sitri for revelation, be ready for an answer that changes how you see the situation, not only how the other person sees you. That readiness is part of honest love work. A practitioner who only wants to be desired, and does not want to know anything uncomfortable, has not really asked for Sitri's work at all.

Be specific about what you want. Reflection about being specific is not a restriction on the work; it is what makes the work intelligible. If the matter is a particular person, name the relationship you actually want with that person, in practical terms: conversation, closeness, commitment, reconciliation, or simply the chance to be seen. If the matter is attraction in general, name what kind of connection you are ready for, and what you are prepared to offer in return. Vague petitions — for love in the abstract, for attention without a relationship attached to it — tend to produce vague outcomes, and then the practitioner blames the spirit for a petition that was never clear.

Why a cast seal, and why lost wax

The seals offered here are lost wax cast seals of the Daemon Demons of the various grimoires. They are pure metal which is actually cast, starting with a wax version.

In lost-wax casting, the seal is first worked in wax, then cast in metal from that wax form. The wax is lost in the process, which is where the name comes from, and the metal that remains is a solid, cast object, not a printed shell. You can feel that difference when you hold it: a cast seal has weight, it has a surface that shows hand work, and it does not have the layered texture of a printed object. For a seal you will hold, carry, and anoint, that solidity matters. It is the difference between a tool and a replica of a tool.

A one-inch pendant hangs close and light, which suits daily carrying, including the kind of carrying where the seal is worn under clothing, close to the body, rather than displayed.

Preparing the petition

Preparation is most of the work, and with a seal that preparation starts before the seal arrives. Be clear about why you are working with Sitri, what you are asking for, and what you are prepared to do yourself. If you cannot state the matter in one clear sentence, write it down, leave it overnight, and come back to see if it still reads true.

Ask yourself, honestly, what you would do if the hidden secret were revealed. Would you still want the connection? Would you change your approach? Would you walk away? Those questions are not meant to talk you out of the work. They are meant to make sure the work is yours, rather than a wish you have not examined. Love work done without that examination tends to repeat itself: the same pattern, the same disappointment, the same petition, with a different name attached.

When the seal arrives, do not start by wearing it everywhere at once. Take time to look at it, to hold it, and to set it aside in a clean place that is used for your working tools. If your practice calls for cleansing or consecration of a new tool, follow the instructions you already follow in your system. A general article like this one is not a substitute for proper teaching in the system, and it should not be used to invent a consecration rite for a seal you have not been taught to consecrate.

Prepare the room and yourself in the same way you would for any Goetia working: clear the space, set it aside for this purpose, bathe or wash, change into clothes you do not wear for ordinary errands, and know what you are going to say, in your own words, before you begin. A clear head is a working tool, just as much as a seal, oil, or incense is.

Holding, anointing, fumigating, carrying, and showing

A pendant seal is made to be carried, and carrying it is part of the work, not an afterthought. Wear it when you are working, and put it away properly when you are not, rather than leaving it in a pocket with keys and loose change, or on a bathroom shelf. A tool that is treated carelessly tends to be worked with carelessly, and that shows in the record you keep afterwards.

Holding the seal is the simplest form of working with it. Hold it while you think through a conversation you need to have, while you prepare to meet someone, or while you sit quietly before a working. Putting it under a candle marks a working in time: the seal sits in the light and heat of the working, not somewhere else in the house, forgotten. Putting oil on it anoints it for a purpose, deliberately, naming that purpose in your own words. Passing it through incense smoke fumigates it, to start a working and to prepare the tools that will be used in it.

Showing the seal to the desired person is another traditional way of working with a seal, where the practice calls for it. In love work, that showing should be deliberate and considered, not casual. A seal shown without intent is just an object being displayed. A seal shown as part of a working, with a clear purpose in mind, is a different act altogether. Think through which of those you mean before you do it, and do not mistake display for work.

Sitri also has a matching incense and a matching oil, both for spirit work and spellwork with Sitri, the incense hand made in small batches when you order. This article is about the seal, so it does not turn into a second article about oil or incense, but it is worth knowing that those companions exist, because a seal that is never anointed or fumigated, and is only worn as jewellery, is not being worked with in the same way as a seal that is prepared for a working and then carried.

Do not use a seal as a substitute for the rest of the work. Carrying a seal and then doing nothing else — no conversation, no honesty, no attention to the other person as a real person rather than a desired outcome — is not spirit work. The seal supports the work, it does not replace it. If you want a connection, you still have to speak, listen, and show up.

A simple working order, to adapt to your own practice

The following is a general order, not a fixed script. Adapt it to the system you already work in. First, prepare the room and yourself, as above. Second, set out the seal, and any oil, incense, or candle you will use. Third, hold the seal, and anoint or fumigate it if your practice calls for it, deliberately, naming the purpose in your own words. Fourth, speak your petition, clearly and once, rather than repeating it until it loses its shape. Fifth, sit quietly for a time and listen, rather than filling every moment with more words. Sixth, close the working properly, in whatever way your practice requires, and put the seal away in its proper place.

Afterwards, write down what you did, when you did it, and what you noticed. Not what you hoped would happen, but what actually happened, in plain language. That record is what lets you tell, weeks later, whether anything changed, and whether that change had anything to do with the work. Note the seal itself in that record: when you wore it, when you put it away, whether you anointed or fumigated it, and what you noticed on days when you carried it compared with days when you did not.

Care for a cast pendant

Care for a cast metal pendant is practical, not mystical, and it is worth stating plainly. Pure cast metal will show wear over time, especially if it is worn every day, against skin, against clothing, and against other objects. That wear is normal for a working tool, and it is not a sign that the seal has stopped working. It is a sign that it has been carried.

Keep the pendant in a clean, dry place when you are not wearing it, away from other metal objects that could scratch it. Clean it gently, with a soft cloth, and do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners on it, unless you know, for the specific metal involved, that such a cleaner is safe. If the bail loosens, or if the pendant shows damage, stop wearing it until it can be repaired properly. A tool that is falling apart is a distraction in a working, and a safety risk if it can fall off unnoticed.

Keeping a record, and knowing when to stop

Keep a short record for each working: date, purpose in one sentence, seal and any oil or incense used, what you did, and what you noticed afterwards, over days and weeks, not just on the night itself. If nothing changes, that is also information. It may mean the petition was unclear, the timing was wrong, the work was not appropriate, or simply that the situation needs a different approach.

Do not repeat the same working endlessly in the hope that repetition alone will force a result. Do the work properly, once, observe, and then decide, calmly, whether a second working, a different approach, or no further working is the right next step. Repetition without reflection is not persistence. It is noise. In love work especially, that discipline matters: a practitioner who keeps repeating a petition without ever examining what was revealed, or what was actually wanted, is not doing spirit work. He or she is rehearsing a wish.
