The LBRP – Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram – is a ceremonial piece of magic performed at the start of any major magical work. It’s aim is to clear / banish *all* energies from a particular working space – so that the magician can then create sacred space, consecrations, and fill the space with energy of their own – for invoking Deities or angels or other works.
LBRP has 5 components/ stages:
1. Grounding & Reaching High to Deity.
2. Kabbalistic Cross.
3. Banishing Pentagrams & Circle.
4. Calling 4 Archangels at Quarters for Protection.
5. Kabbalistic Cross (again).
I’ve written detailed blogs and taught LBRP at courses. And finally, in this video I give a personal introduction, and give a demonstration on how to perform the LBRP. I’ve created graphics & short animations to help show you what to `visualise’. The video was filmed in a woods near my home in 2018.

In a forthcoming video (LBRP video2), I will be giving full explanations of each of the sections of LBRP, as well as verbal guide (like a guided pathworking), so that you can play it and practise the LBRP your self. Look out for my LBR video-2 soon. For now I hope this video gives you all the basics you need to learn about LBRP. It really is a short piece of magical work, but profound, nevertheless.

The following extensive notes with stage-by-stage graphics showing what happens and what to visualise – was provided by me to my Students, after running this as part of a Woodland High Magic workshop in May/June of 2018. I am now making this available freely to all in my blog http://www.QuantumPhoenix.net.
LBRP takes place in 5 stages
1. Grounding & Reaching to Deity –
2. Kabbalistic Cross –
3. Banishing Pentagrams & Circle–
4. Calling 4 Archangels at Quarters for Protection.
5. Kabbalistic Cross (again).
1. Grounding & Reaching to Deity –
this involves visualisation that your feet is firmly grounded on Earth. You draw on Earth energy to `grow’ and become larger than known Universe, until you can see the Divine light in distance in the void beyond all universe.
Standing grounded
Visualise Growing Taller and bigger
Growing bigger than a City you are in.
Growing bigger than planet Earth..
Growing to the size of Galaxy
Growing bigger the galaxy ..and Universe!
2. Kabbalistic Cross –
This is where you praise and honour the supreme Deity (God) and draw the divine light into your self.. Imagine a brilliant white light descending. ..first down into your forehead (saying ATEH meaning `thou art’.
Visualise this light now flowing down through your body and all the way to Infinity ..below you!. Saying the words MALKUTH – meaning `the Kingdom’).
You then draw energy from the centre and project it through you all the way to the right, saying the words VE-GEBURAG, meaning `and the Power’;
You do the same for the left, saying VE-GEDULAH, meaning, `and the Glory’. This forms a beam of divine light going from the central bean to infinity in both right and left directions.
Finally, saying, LE-OLAM meaning `forever’ you project a beam of divine light from all the way to infinity in front of you, and also project a beam all the way to infinity behind you.
You bring hands into praying posture saying `AMEN’ meaning `So be it’.
Thus you are standing in the centre with 6 beams of divine light.
Seeing Infinite Divine Light far above.
Drawing Divine light in to Self.
Drawing light into body via head/ forehead.
Drawing light down through body to feet and beyond.
Beaming light from centre to right (and to infinity)
Beaming light from centre to left (and to infinity)
You then drawn energy from the light beams within, and conjure flaming blue pentagrams in 4 Directions..
You begin in the East, and vibrating a God name YOD HE VAU HE to charge the pentagram. This is an Earth-banishing pentagram. This is pushed out in the East …as it clears all energies in that direction.
You then draw a quarter of a circle, from East to South.
Facing South, you conjure 2nd flaming pentagram, and energise it with another God Name This pentagram is then pushed out to infinity in the Southern direction, clearing all energies.
You now draw another quarter-circle, from South to West.
Facing West, you conjure 3rd flaming pentagram, and energise it with another God Name EHEIEH. This pentagram is then pushed out to infinity in the Western direction, clearing all energies.
You now draw another quarter-circle, from West to North.
Facing North , you conjure 4th flaming pentagram, and energise it with another God Name AGLA. This pentagram is then pushed out to infinity in the Northern direction, clearing all energies.
Finally, You complete another quarter-circle, from North to East.
How to draw an Earth-Banishing Pentagram.
Projecting energy to the East..
Drawing Earth Banishing pentagram in the East
Visualise blue flaming pentagram in East
Powering Pentagram in East with God-name, and pushing it out to infinity (and banishing all energies away in that sector).
Drawing a quarter-circle from East to South
In the South, drawing a flaming Earth-Banishing pentagram..
Continue Quarter circle from South to West and drawing Earth Banishing pentagram in West.
Continue Quarter circle from West to North, and drawing Earth Banishing pentagram in North.
Complete Circle by drawing quarter-circle from North to East.
4. Calling 4 Archangels at Quarters for Protection:
As you have completed the circle, along with 4 banishing pentagrams, you will now be standing in the centre – facing East. Calling all angels takes place while you still face East..
You visualise the Archangel Raphael in the East in front of you.
Say, `Before me, Raphael’, then call out his name
Now feel the presence of Gabriel behind you (in the West).. Remember you are still facing forward to East.
Say `Behind me, Gabriel and call out the name Gabriel.
Now just turn only your head towards your right ..which is the direction South. Visualise Michael. Call out his name
Last but not least, turn your head to your left (the direction of North) and visualise Uriel. Call out the name
Take a moment to visualise clearly the 4 Archangels in the 4 directions.. guarding those directions in the circle. Make sure to honour and welcome them.
Calling 4 Archangels in the order- Infront/ East (Raphael), Behind/West (Gabriel), To right/South (Michael) and to left/west (Uriel) .

5. Full Circle & Kabbalistic Cross repeated:
You now acknowledge the whole magical working as a reminder, by saying,
“Around me flames the pentagrams. And within me / behind shines the six-rayed star”
You now perform the Kabbalistic Cross again – as you are now in a purified and protected space. Begin with divine light above, drawing in down into body, projecting it to right and left and beams, and projecting it forward and back.

We begin a series of workshops for teaching tools, techniques needed for psychic protection, safety, making sigils, talismans & charms and doing deeper level High Magic rituals.. These are often kept `secret’ or students have to read hundreds of pages of books (Golden Dawn, Keys of Solomon), or end up trawling internet for not so well-thought out blogs. People often copy what they see, without checking for mistakes which then get propagated..and don’t produce the results they want in their magic.. or worse ..the mistakes create magical side-effects that can cause more psychic problems with supernatural beings, entities, spirits. One tiny mistake can easily cause someone many years of problems. (been there done that!)
High Magic1 course – LBRP, Kabbalistic Cross, Archangel sigils 20th May 2018 – by Mani Navasothy
For serious space/ energy clearing before any important high magical or ritual work, LBRP is often used by ritualists. No tool is required other than clear use of god names, energetic visualising, drawing energy, creating pentagrams and calling on archangels. So it can be done anywhere.
In this practical workshop, you’ll be taught LBRP step by step, showing:
– Kabbalistic Cross – bringing down divine light and beaming it in all 6 directions over the body
– Banishing Pentagrams to clear energy, using Hebrew God names
– Calling on 4 Archangels as protection in the 4 quarters.
In addition to teaching this in slow step by step, and all students then practicing it in a group several times (so that you can go home and do this on your own with full confidence), we’ll also be covering:
– The Rose Cross wheel used in Golden Dawn, the Hebrew names of the four Archangels, and how to write their names in sigil forms. This technique can then be used by you to write all other angelic names in sigil forms for your own talisman making and ritual magical calling of angels.
Unlike our other courses/ workshops, teaching High Magic requires much more organisation & attention, efficiency and practise. So all students will be given a `workbook’ at start of course, for taking notes & doing exercises. You will practice LBRP under supervision.
You may RSVP by all means ( meetup link at the bottom of this blog), but please complete payment for a confirmed space. Spaces are kept strictly limited for purpose of teaching subject matters efficiently. After the course, you’ll have access to video tutorials by Tutor for viewing and practice.

Preparation:
(This is an outdoor course, so please attend with proper weather-appropriate clothing, pack lunch, note book, and attend after a good night’s sleep for focus. Understanding principles is important in high magical work so that there are no doubts or uncertainties, through which `problems’ can creep in).
Personal note:
Until now, I have kept all my teaching to Wicca, paganism and what i call `low magic’ work that involves chants, candles, cords. However, behind the scenes, when people have contacted me via websites & pages privately, i have done my best to advise them. But as with many things, prevention is better than cure, when you are upto your eye balls in psychic attacks, hexes and entities. So am starting these workshops to help others and share important magical works in psychic protection & magical safety!
***Please DO NOT copy or use my art/ graphics elsewhere. I have NEVER given permission to Anyone! **
If you do an internet search for the Archangel names, firstly many variations come up, and second, you’ll see a whole lot of shops selling talismans & pendants with all sorts of symbols and sigils, with a mixture of Hebrew writing included and all sorts of squiggles.
The question is, how far do you trust them? How accurate do you think those sigils are – and how do you even test to ensure they are accurate? (unless you are already an expert at those matters).
Am not saying anyone out there is deliberately trying to mislead anyone. But my own extensive internet (and hard printed books) searches have shown me that there’s a lot of smudging and confusion in this matter… People are sometimes just copying one another’s websites/ blogs or info..and the mistakes/ misinformation is either spreading or getting amplified (like Chinese whispers).
There are worlds, realms and beings out there – magical, etherial and the supernatural – that are best left alone. Because once you disturb them, or open a door to their realms, or if they happen to disturb you.. life is *never* going to be the same.
Years ago, I had dabbled…all so briefly..with some sigils.. just playful.. for a day or so.. and the psychic reaction I got from that was so shocking and intense, that it scared me. I erased all traces of that experiment..and put it away for years! Until last year! When I had cause to open it up again.. But this time it’s different. I’m being extremely careful.. and double..triple checking every detail..
It started as a personal need to know what I can trust ..and then it became an interest…and then it became a promise.. that what I know I must share with others.. Because there are those amongst you.. who are seeking.. out of curiosity, interest or worse…desperation..!
That’s why this is being written.. To help those who are seeking.
Is it my place to help? Do I know enough to help? Possibly No..for both questions. But I have a new philosophy that I have been living by now..for almost half a year.. If you are working with Angels, how ever small or large an involvement, you have to live by some high ideals and standards.. There is no faking it…or suppressing it or denying it.. They will know. So you have to simply start being it…your best self.. your noble self.. your angelic self!
So with those disclaimers / warnings in mind, let’s begin.
1. The Rose Wheel
I won’t go into the full history or detail of it.. You can look it up on wikipedia .. or the `Golden Dawn’ (for first hand knowledge/ reading). I will say this.. if you don’t know it,, and you were looking for it …it will have been one hard journey. Information online is fragmented..and bits seem to be kept apart.
I eventually found it…and suddenly it all made sense.. So am writing about it first..(so that it saves you the trouble). It’s a key that practitioners of `Golden Dawn’ western magical tradition used in their ceremonies, rituals and magical work.
The Rose Cross with English & Hebrew letters (c) Mani Navasothy 2015. Esoteric blogs at http://www.QuantumPhoenix.net
I have re-created only the central section here. Not only that, I have also combined the Hebrew letters/ sounds that match the english letters/ sounds as near as possible..
2. Arch Angel names
Am only referring to the four Archangels used in the `Ritual of the lesser banishing of the Pentagram’ – mainly, Raphael, Michael, Gabriel and Uriel… for East, South, West and North directions respectively.
These names were originally said in Hebrew, and were written in that langage. So their pronounciations are slightly different.I have gone back to the Hebrew forms (given in example)..
3. How to write Archangelnames in sigil form
Start by writing the specific name in Hebrew (or find a hebrew version online!). Remember Hebrew is written from right to left..
Then Take out a pre-drawn Rose Wheel. Yes, you’ll need one. And above I ave provided one version. Just print it off, orr copy it using geometric accuracy..or view it enlarged, stick a paper on your screen, and trace over it carefully (don’t press too hard and end up damaging the screen.. so be very careful)
Mark out the letters of the name on the Rose Wheel.
Now in sequence, trace over the letters, thereby drawing the sigil of the Archangel name.
Here are fully illustrated examples I have created.
With these 4 examples, and the Rose Wheel diagram above, you now have the tools and techniques to start creating sigils of other Arch Angel and Angel names in sigil forms..
ArchAngel Cometh! Here’s a rather quick bit of graphics I did recently.. (bridge, clouds, Temple Pillars).. I decided to add an old art work I did (The Angel). So.. how many of you believe in Archangels? Do you work magically with them.. such as Raphael, Gabriel, Michael or Uriel? They are called upon to protect the elemental quarters in the `Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram (LBRP). Feel free to share…. Bright Blessings – Mani#
