A Pocket Dictionary of Sigils, Planets and Tantric Vocabulary for Grimoire Readers
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: A plain-English A-to-Z glossary of grimoire, sigil, planetary and tantric vocabulary, written as background for readers of The Billionaire Grimoire. Open almost any book in the grimoire tradition and you meet a wall of unfamiliar words before you meet a single idea. Sigil, correspondence, invocation, talisman, tantra, yantra: each one arrives with centuries of use behind it, and each one can be read narrowly or generously. This article is a pocket dictionary. It is background on the subject, written for anyone curious about the vocabulary that surrounds The Billionaire Grimoire (https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=BFPmEQAAQBAJ), a book whose subtitle promises a tantric reading of angelic sigils and planetary magic. A note on scope before we begin. This is a guide to words, not a summary of the book. The book itself is where its author's particular reading lives, and nothing here should be taken as a description of its pages. What follows is general, widely discussed vocabulary, explained in everyday language, with hedges wherever the history is disputed.
