	Magic circle (Wicca) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Circle casting is generally done with salt or some other purifying materials, and requires special rituals to be effective.
		She may put herself within the circle as a way to focus the power that she is conjuring into a small area rather than allow it to extend all over the place, or hit different area randomly.
		However, others claimed that wearing charms is better that circles because circle casting traps the person in the very area that she casts.

	Magic (paranormal) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		These magical forces are said to exist in addition to and alongside the four fundamental forces of nature: gravity, electromagnetism, the strong nuclear force and the weak nuclear force.
		Sympathetic magic involves the use of physical objects which resemble the object or objects one hopes to influence; the Voodoo dolls of "New Orleans Voodoo" are an example of this.
		Magic has been portrayed in numerous games, in which magic is a characteristic available to players in certain circumstances or to certain types of player characters.

	Wicca article - Wicca Volva Sweep (book series) Circle Three Neopagan religion British - What-Means.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Wicca is the most popular Neopagan religion, originally founded by the British civil servant Gerald Gardner, probably in the 1930s, although it was first openly revealed in 1951.
		It is considered to be a learned skill, referring to the casting of spells and the practice of magic or magick (the use of the "k" is to separate the term from stage magic).
		It is important to the understanding of Wicca to realize that while Wicca as we understand it is modern, both the practice of magick and the worship of a Mother Goddess and a God or Horned God are ancient.

	Magic Circle (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		The magical circle is a sacred place where all rites and ceremonies are carried out.

	Wicca
		Wicca is a earth religion, far older than Christianity and came before even the Greek and Roman Empires.
		Casting a magic circle keeps the unfocused energies you stir up by your spell work, inside the circle, and it keeps unwanted energy and spirits out of the circle as well.
		Wicca was around long before Christianity and many people who observe Christmas holidays, are sure to have gotten their traditions from their pagan ancestors.

		Goddesses and good spirits were invited into the circle, which sometimes had powerful, protective stones placed at North, South, East, and West points.
		The circle itself was a mark of infinity and eternity.
		The magic circle was drawn with either a a magic wand or an athame (a fl-handled ceremonial dagger).

	Spiral Nature - Spirituality - Wicca - Black Magic
		Baneful magic is magic done for the explicit purpose of causing harm toanother person.
		Manipulative magic is magic that targets another person for what we think is "their own good," without regard for their opinions in the matter.
		Coercive magic is just as unacceptable when somebody else asks for it, and you may not do manipulative magic on your friend's mother, even at your friend's request.

		We use a circle because the moon and sun are circles, and the horizon is a circle, as are many other things in nature, for it is the most basic of geometric shapes.
		The magic circle, within Wicca, is treated as a kind of division between the mundane world on the outside and the sacred world within, where magic can happen more easily.
		I imagine that the circle dancing that once happened around holy wells, sacred trees, bonfires, and Maypoles, which the christian clergy and witch hunters dissaproved of so angrily, was a kind of magic dance for raising power.

		Gardner claimed that the religion was a survival of matriarchal religions of pre-historic Europe (see Volva), taught to him by a woman named Dorothy Clutterbuck.
		Margaret Murray and sources such as Aradia: Gospel of the Witches by Charles G. Leland, and the practices of Freemasonry and ceremonial magic; and while Clutterbuck certainly existed, historian Ronald Hutton concluded that she is unlikely to have been involved in Gardner's Craft activities.
		Some solitaries do, however, attend "gatherings" and other community events, but reserve their spiritual practices (Sabbats, Esbats, spell-casting, worship, magical work, etc.) for when they are alone.

		The standing stones, stone circles, sacred groves, and revered springs of Europe are remnants of those ancient days.

	Magic with Gaia - Exercises
		Wicca is a formal religious tradition, incorporating the beliefs of many Pagan, pre-Christian, polytheistic Earth religions.
		In a sense one could say that the two modern paths, Wicca and Deep Ecology, were conceived, gestated and born again in similar times and through similar circumstances, in part through the nascent environmental consciousness and movements of the last two centuries.
		Whether at home, out in the world or in the magic Circle, we can leave ourselves open to what has sometimes been termed "psychic attack." These two exercises go hand in hand because as we open ourselves through relaxation we can become more vulnerable.

		The Wicca should give due worship to the Gods and obey their will, which they ordain, for it was made for the good of the Wicca, as the worship of the Wicca is good for the Gods.
		Let each Circle or Temple maintain and dedicate unto the Goddess and the God all the things that are required for Their rituals, for what is blessed in the name of the Gods rightly belongs to Them, and the Priest and Priestess shall be the caretakers thereof.
		Yet if the Circle feels the decision is ill-advised, or that they cannot abide and work in honor and trust with that consort, then they may request a gathering of all concernted to meet and to talk, and to resolve the balance with love and honor.

		YOUR HIGH PRIEST In the Magic Circle, the High Priest is the earthly representative of the Great God.
		It is necessary that the Magic Circle, which is the Temple of the Gods in these times, be case and purified such that it may be a fitting place for the Gods; and the Witches should be properly prepared and purified to enter into the presence of the Gods.
		It is for the reason that shared love often increases the result of working magic that teaching should always be done from man-to-woman and from woman-to-man. When a coven is made up of members of all one sex, the masculine-to-feminine energy exchange should be adhered to whenever possible.

		The pentagram, the five-pointed star image with its lines often interlaced, is typically enclosed within a circle; and thus, in most traditions, is a symbol of protection.
		Most pentacles used in modern witchcraft and magic are made of silver, the metal of the moon and psychic powers.
		Pentacles are use to consecrate the magic circle, to ground energy and serve food; pentacles used for this latter function are usually round disks made of clay or wax.

		a good number of others do no such thing, create a magical working chamber, a mobile magical energy battery, energetic circle (attached to an amulet), use nothing at all in attunement to the natural forces available everywhere, or reserving their magical activities for their personal and private time (unseen, unobserved, even should it be inoffensive).
