Greetings everyone, I was wondering if there is any information on the site regarding the Theban alphabet and wonder if anyone uses it in their practice? I have practiced writing it but have not used it for conversation. I received a set of Theban flash cards so I try to practice them a few times a week, but need to get better at writing it as well. I am just curious if others use it regularly. Blessed be.

Hi, I have not learned it or used in my practice, but now I am curious. I havenāt seen anything on the site about it either. I am going to take some time today to learn a little bit about it though!

Hello @Saulamay 
I donāt believe we have any information on the Theban alphabet here on Spells8, but @Francisco may consider adding it in the future. If you want to incorporate it into your practice, you can. I donāt know if I would use it in conversation. I have a hard enough time with English and learning Irish and Ogham ā I couldnāt imagine learning an entirely new writing system 
Here are some resources I found online for the Theban alphabet. Keep in mind that some sources say itās ancient, some say it isnāt. Some sources say itās been used by witches for centuries, but there isnāt any proof of that. Regardless, I donāt think it matters. Have fun with it!

Bucklandās Big Blue Book has the breakdown of Theban Runes, and Futhark Runes. Every Witchy Library needs the BBBB.
I prefer the Futhark runes myself.

@MeganB i agree, you definitely need a decoder ring when working with it and it takes time to write it by hand, but I like to use it occasionally when I am writing something and I donāt want others to easily figure out what it says.

Thanks @NickWick, I am the same. I will use it to write something I donāt want someone to read with ease. Iāll also write it in Latin (thank you Google translator).

This is the one I have used in the past. I learned it in school and used it to pass secret messages to a friend.
Hereās the deciphering guide and an example sentence:
I donāt really use any specific alphabet these days but itās certainly fun and it adds a layer of focus to any writing process.
Because it forces you to concentrate on each letter, it makes you slow down and symbolically builds up greater energy due to that extra focus.

Iāve seen this code before. You can change it easily by Advancing letters to any place in the system. As long as everyone has the same key itās easy to use. Itās also one of the easiest to crack.

I can see that it was a long time ago that you posted your question. But, since I have recently started to learn Theban myself, I thought Iād do a search to see if there was anything about it on the site. I was surprised to see there was little. Just curious. Did you stick with it? Iām enjoying it and hope to become proficient at reading and writing. Iāve ordered the workbook and am using a lap white board and copies of the alphabet with Procreate on my iPad to help me learn. Iāve also decided to keep one ādiaryā to write into daily using only Theban. Hope youāre still around in the group to answer.
