How do you get the sigil to fully charge Kimarhi's celestial weapon in FFX?

Answer 1

This is a fun one.

In order to get the Saturn Sigil you have to complete the mini-game in Macalania Woods. You have to play the butterfly mini-game and complete it without touching any red butterflies. Most of the time this will take practice and patience.

You have to play it twice. There are two areas where you can play it. You can't touch any red butterflies in either place (if you do, restart and try again. Be sure to save after each successful attempt!) And you have three times during the game where you can play the game. Do NOT play it the first time through, or the second. You _must_ have the airship to get the prize.

Answer 2

Firstly, you must not engage in the butterfly chase (in Macalania Woods) until after you have control of the airship.

After that, you must get all 7 blue butterflies in both chases and get no red ones. If you get a red butterfly, restart and try again (a soft reset will be fine).

I've found the best strategy is to make my way to the Travel Agency in Macalania, go towards the woods and save at the save sphere. Do the butterfly hunt on that end first, resetting as needed until you get it perfect. Then go back to the same sphere and save again. Return to the wood, but this time avoid the multi-colored butterfly that starts that chase, and then go the bird with the harp. Just past him is the mulit-colored that starts the next chase. Rinse and repeat until you get a perfect score and you will get your sigil.
