Kamea Sigil Generator

A Kamea is a magic square assigned to one of the seven classical planets, recorded together in Agrippa's De Occulta Philosophia in 1533. Saturn's is a 3×3 grid, the Moon's a 9×9, and in each one every row, column and main diagonal adds to the same total.

This generator turns a written intention into a line drawn across one of those grids. Each letter converts to a number, each number locates a cell, and straight lines joining the cells in order produce a single continuous figure — a small circle marks where it begins and a crossbar where it ends. Choose the planet whose sphere matches the intention, pick a letter scale, and export the result as a PNG.

How to generate a Kamea sigil

Choose a construction path. Kamea tracing keeps the whole text. The Spare-inspired path strips vowels and repeats first.
Select a planetary square. Match the planet to the nature of the intention — Saturn for boundaries, Venus for harmony, and so on.
Write the intention. One clear purpose, phrased in the present tense and within your own agency.
Generate and export. The figure is drawn on the grid. Save it as a PNG, with or without the square behind it.

Which planet for which intention

The choice of square is not decoration — it changes the geometry. The same four numbers land in different cells on a 3×3 than on a 9×9, so the same sentence produces a different figure on each planet.

Traditionally: Saturn for boundaries, endurance and endings; Jupiter for growth and wisdom; Mars for courage and defence; the Sun for vitality and visibility; Venus for harmony and attraction; Mercury for learning and communication; the Moon for dreams, intuition and cycles.

Square size also sets a practical limit. Saturn's grid holds only 1 to 9, so larger letter values reduce before they can be traced; the Moon's grid accepts anything to 81 directly, which is why longer intentions draw more intricate figures on the larger squares.

What is traditional and what is modern

The squares and their planetary attributions are Renaissance ceremonial material. Tracing a name through the relevant Kamea belongs to that tradition. Striking out vowels and repeated letters to compress a sentence into an abstract glyph does not — that comes from Austin Osman Spare in the twentieth century.

Both paths are offered here and both are labelled. The full account, with the seven squares and their arithmetic set out in a table, is on the sigil knowledge page.

Timing the work

Traditional practice creates or consecrates a planetary sigil on that planet's day and, where possible, during its planetary hour. The Planetary Hours gives the current ruler for your location; the seven classical planets covers each sphere in full.
