This sigil is a modern rendering of Hermes—divine messenger, guardian of liminal spaces, and patron of witches, alchemists, and travelers. At its heart is the winged circle, an echo of the Caduceus, Hermes’ sacred staff, symbolizing swift movement between realms and the transmission of sacred knowledge. The outstretched wings speak of transcendence, flight, and the airy quality of thought and spirit. Above the circle rise ram’s horns, alluding to Aries and the initiatory fire of will—bold, assertive, and guiding new beginnings. Below, the inverted triangle with a bisecting line evokes elemental water and the alchemical feminine. This symbol also closely mirrors the glyph for Venus, drawing in associations with beauty, attraction, and sacred union. In Hermetic thought, Venus is not merely a goddess of love, but a planetary force that mediates harmony and reconciles opposites.
Taken together, the sigil becomes a sacred geometry of balance: masculine and feminine, earth and sky, intellect and desire, spirit and flesh. It reflects a Hermetic ideal—the reconciliation of dualities into wholeness. In some interpretations, the upright cross and circle signify spirit presiding over matter, while the downward triangle draws that spirit into embodiment. Hermes himself was known to walk between worlds—Olympus and Earth, the living and the dead—and this symbol honors that in-between space where witches often dwell. As such, it serves as a powerful emblem for magical practitioners who embrace fluidity, transformation, and the sacred complexity of identity and divine presence.
