Amulet DrawingThe steps to draw the amulet were as follows:
1. [Prepare drawing materials: You need to prepare basic materials such as ink, brush, red paper, black paper, small carving knife, etc. to draw the charm. Beginners can choose paper the size of their palm to increase the success rate.]
2. [Choose the pattern of the charm: You can choose the amulet for your home, or search for the relevant pattern on the internet and print it out in the middle of the red paper.]
3. [Drawing Mode: The right-hander dipped the brush in ink and tilted the brush to the right. Then, he began to write in a suitable posture.]
4. [Complete the charm pattern: During the drawing process, you have to constantly adjust the pressure and amount of water to ensure that the lines are smooth and natural.]
5. [Fill in the charm: After completing the pattern, fill in the person or thing you want to protect, spell, date, time, and other relevant information.]
6. [Charged Charm: You can place the charm on the window at sunset and let it receive the last ray of sunlight.]
7. [Preservation charm: Store in a dry environment, avoid direct sunlight and humidity. It is recommended to change the charm every year.]
In addition, there were special ritual requirements when drawing some amulets. For example, when drawing three points, three bends, and three points, one would silently recite the words "Jade Pure Edict, Shangqing Edict, Taiqing Edict" in one's heart and silently imagine the image of the Three Pure Ones. The three bends represented the Qi of the Three Pure Ones and the Three Realms. The pen was exhausted and the meaning was endless. It meant that the Qi of the Three Heavens had descended into the amulet. At the same time, one would recite "Ancestor of Catastrophe, Ancestor of Ten Thousand Gods, Root of Heaven and Earth, Endless Changes" in one's heart. When he circled and circled, he recited the words "Chaos is endless, giving birth to heaven and earth, everything is born, and the power is released by the explosion (pronunciation)". The next vertical circle had the meaning of breaking the endless chaos and separating Yin and Yang. He recited the words "Chaos is open, rising Yang and descending Yin, all things are in the world, forming Qi." Then, he tapped three points, representing the Ancestral Master (here, he specifically referred to Sa Shoujian, the master of Wang Lingguan), the Enlightenment Master (the master who learned the Dharma), and the Master (the teacher who taught this Dharma and this talisman). When he tapped, he recited the words "Ancestral Master's Decree, Enlightenment Master's Decree, and Master's Decree" in his heart. When writing the word "Dou"(one short horizontal line, one short horizontal line, and one long horizontal line), one had to visualize the six stars of the Southern Dipper in front of them, inhale the red fire energy from the south into one's heart, and meditate on the image of Wang Lingguan. Then, he would quickly write down the word and recite it silently at the same time.
The material used to draw amulets was generally paper and silk, and yellow paper was commonly used. It was related to the ancient yellow worship and the yellow belief of Taoism. Red ink was the main material used to write amulets, and cinnabar was especially commonly used because it could ward off ghosts and evil spirits.
