A symbol designed for a specific magikal purpose is called a sigil. The plural is sigila. Occultists may prefer the anglicized plural "sigils". The term sigil derives from the Latin sigilum meaning "seal." The old norse binding rune is an example of the idea. However, sigila differ from runes as they are designed not to represent an alphabet but are created to form a glyph, composed of a variety of symbols or concepts with the intent and inherent iconic meaning.

A sigil (pronounced // or //; pl. sigila or sigils) is a symbol created for a specific magical purpose. The term sigil derives from the Latin sigilum meaning "seal," though it may also be related to the Hebrew סגולה (segulah meaning "word, action or item of spiritual effect"). The old Norse binding rune is an example of the idea.
In computer programming, a sigil is a symbol attached to a variable name, showing the variable's datatype. The term was first applied to Perl usage by Philip Gwyn in 1999 to replace the more cumbersome "funny character in front of a variable name". The name is presumably based on the word meaning a magical symbol (see sigil (magic)).
