BANISHING RITUAL OF THE PENTAGRAM

Here is the Lower Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram. This is used to
clarify the mind before any ritual work (including divinations) as well
as clearing the area of any lingering astral garbage entities. It is also
advisable to do this before meditations since it helps to center and
focus the mind. It will allow positive energies to enter our Innerspace
and repels all negativity.

There are three parts to this ritual:

1: Kabalistic Cross

-Move to the center of your Innerspace, close your eyes and spend a few moments
clearing your mind

- Visualize your self growing larger and larger, upward and through any
barriers (such as roof) that might exist. Rise up until you can the area
below you, then the whole city, then the country, then the entire earth.

- Keep growing upward till you can see the solar system below you, see
the galaxy, and keep going higher still.

- Then become aware of a brilliant shining white light above you.

- Know that this light is the light of the divine, and if you were to
see it all at once you would go blind, therefore you only become aware
of a small part of it.

- Reach up in your mind and physically with your right hand bring the
light down to your forehead. At this point touch your forehead
physically and vibrate the word "AH-TEH", visualizing with your eyes (and
with eyes still closed) a brilliant white ray of light coming out of your
forehead and extending upward, infinitely.

- Then bring your hand down so it's covering the area just above the navel
with your finger pointing downward and vibrate "MAHL-KOOT". At the same
time see the white ray of light extending downward, infinitely, through
the earth and ends of the universe.

- Then touch your right shoulder vibrating "VEH GEH-BUR-AH" while
visualizing the light extend outward to your right, infinitely.

- Do same for left shoulder but see the light extending to the left and
vibrate " VEH GEH-DUL-AH"

- The clasp your hands at your chest and vibrate " LEH O-LAHM, AH-MEN".

- See the cross formed with light flare brilliantly.

(what you said in this cross translates into " For thine is the kingdom,
the power and the glory, eternally, Amen" )

2: Drawing the Pentagram

- Walk to the east and extend your arm pointing at the air in front of
you. You may either have eyes closed or open.

- Draw a pentagram in the air with "Magickal fire". Visualizing the
energy flowing from your dagger, wand, or finger, and forming
a flaming blue line. The pentagram must be drawn from the lower left corner up, then
diagonally down and to the right, then diagonally up-left, straight right
and then back down to the lower corner point.

- When you have completed drawing it, see it flaming in the air before
you, and step backward slightly, feet parallel

- Raise both hands to the sides of your head, near your ears, finger
pointing outward. Step forward with left foot and move both hands inward
meeting at the center of the pentagram. As they "pierce" the center
vibrate "YOD-HEH-VAH-VEH" and see the pentagram flare before you.

- Walk clockwise and circulatory to the south, and with your arm raised.
Visualize the energy as a white glowing line following your hand in the air, creating that portion of
the circle.

- When you are facing south, again draw the pentagram, and do the same as
before and vibrate "AH-DOH-NYE"

- Walk to the west, Visualize seeing the white line of light marking that part of the circle in
the air before you.

- Draw the pentagram there and do the same as before, but vibrate "EH-HEH-YEH"

- Walk to the north, Visualizing the energy
and do the same as before completing the circle of light. In the north draw
a pentagram and do as before vibrating "AH-GLAH"

- After doing this see the white light marking the circle expand into the
sphere of brilliant white light, extending to the sides, upward in the air
and down through the ground, protecting you on all sides.



- Walk clockwise, back to the center of the circle.

3: Invoking the Archangels

- Face East, raise your arms in the air and say, "Before me, Rah-pha-el"
vibrate the name of the angel and see him standing before you in the
east, dressed in yellow robes and surrounded by swirling wind and air.

- Then say "Behind me, Gah-bra-el". Vibrate the angel's name and see him
in your mind standing behind you dressed in blue with some orange
highlights. Be able to feel the moisture in the air.

- Then say "On my right hand, Mee-chi-el". Vibrate his name and see him
standing on the south of the circle holding a flaming sword and
surrounded by fire and the sun.

- The say "on my left hand, Au-ree-el." Vibrate the name, and see the
angel of earth standing at the north of the circle, surrounded by things
of earth,

- Then say "For about me flames of the pentagram..." At this point see a
large pentagram overlaying your body, the tip being at your forehead,
the left and right points on your arms, and the two lower points on your
feet. (Arms should be raised for this).

- Then say "And within me shines the six pointed star." See a golden
hexagram glowing within the center of the chest.

- Then perform the Kabalistic cross again.

This marks the end of this ritual. This ritual is VERY good for
concentration and especially banishing any unwanted influences in your
area (whichever this area may be)

Please note that this ritual need not be performed physically, but can be
performed astrally and the names can also be vibrated astrally as well.
