Why a Pentagram?
Penta-: from the Greek pente meaning five
-gram: from the Greek gramma meaning something written or drawn
A star with 5 points; formed by 5 straight lines between the
vertices of a pentagon and enclosing another pentagon
The pentagram represents the self and the universe simultaneously. Which makes it
appropriate for these workings. " (ACM)
The five pointed figure unites the elements and the spirit into one figure again representing the
micro and macro cosms. " (Al)

Oh no!
Math and geometry
A regular pentagram is the {5/2} star polygon. It is most easily drawn
by drawing a regular pentagon, joining the corners with lines and
erasing the original pentagon. You may also extend the sides of the
pentagon until they meet, obtaining a bigger pentagram.
The golden ratio, Ć plays an important role in regular pentagons and
pentagrams. Each line is divided into several smaller segments, and if
you divide the length of the longer segment with the shorter segment
of any pair of segments you will get Ć.

blue green pink
Also a side of the large pentagon is a blue line, while a diagonal of the
small pentagram is the same length as a green line segment.

Astronomy!
The pentagram is considered by some western occultists to trace its
esoteric significance to an astronomical observance of the pattern of
Venus' conjunctions with the Sun. This is not possible.
A superior conjunction occurs when Venus is behind the Sun and the
inferior conjunction is when Venus is between Earth and the Sun; in
both cases Venus is not visible. But it is true that plotting the
recurrence of Venus' westward elongation from the Sun, over five
consecutive synodic periods, will create the points of a pentagram.
This period is approximately 584 days long, each period determining
a different point of the observed pentagram taking approximately
eight years, five days to complete the figure. One would get a
pentagram by picking any sunrise date on which the morning star is
prominent and then repeating the observation at 584 day intervals
following that date.

Oh no!
All around us!
It has been claimed that the ancient Egyptians knew the golden ratio because ratios close
to the golden ratio may be found in the positions or proportions of the Pyramids of Giza.
The ancient Greeks already knew the golden ratio from their investigations into geometry,
but there is no evidence they thought the number warranted special attention above that
for numbers like (Pi), for example. Studies by psychologists have been devised to test
Ä„
the idea that the golden ratio plays a role in human perception of beauty.
In 1509 Luca Pacioli published the Divina Proportione, which explored not only the
mathematics of the golden ratio, but also its use in architectural design. This was a major
influence on subsequent generations of artists and architects. Leonardo Da Vinci drew
the illustrations, leading many to speculate that he himself incorporated the golden ratio
into his work. It has been suggested for example that Da Vinci's painting of the Mona Lisa
employs the Golden Ratio in its geometric equivalents.

Types of Ritual
Banishings
Used for removing, driving away, or expelling forces. Moving influences away from
interfering with the Will.
Invocations
Used for acquiring, drawing in, or attracting forces. Bringing influences in to compliment
or aid the Will.
Lesser
Simpler or less focused rituals. For a broader (or less lofty) purpose.
Greater
More complex or focused rituals. For a narrower (or more spiritual) purpose.
11
Lesser Banishing Rituals
Simple way of cleaning the environment and paving
the way for other untainted work.
Cleans the whole house and leaves the fresh scent of pine.
These are an excellent place for a magickian to begin formal ceremonial
ritual. They are straightforward, practical, and provide the ideal environment
for more serious work.

Lesser Banishing Ritual of the
Pentagram (of Earth)
We ll explain that of Earth part later.
Components:
Cabullistic Cross (Spelling: Rb. LbC)
Vibrating the Names of God and casting the Pentagram
Vibrating the Archangels
Locking the Pentagram (and Hidden Hexagram)
13
Vibrating the holy names.
The sounds are begun deep in the diaphragm and exhaled with a slight nasal
quality. The effect is quite powerful and vibrates the entire being as well as
the environment.
Imagine that the name is a force being channeled down from your Kether (and from the universe). Now
imagine that the force flows straight down through your pranic tube until it reaches your feet. (Some
people stop at the heart and even try to write the name there in glowing white letters). You can try to
inhale the force while imagining the letters in front of you if you wish (In the case of Hebrew names, you'll
have to know what they look like in Hebrew letters). When it reaches your feet, expel it from you while
pronouncing it in a humming/chanting way so that it causes your body to vibrate all over. THE SOUND
OF THE NAME SHOULD BE THE ONLY THING IN YOUR MIND WHILE YOU VIBRATE IT. You'll have
to experiment to see what pitch and tone works best to cause this vibration to occur. You may have to
use a lot of air. If you really can't do this due to sound restrictions (you're not alone in the house/room
etc.) then a forceful whisper will do while visualizing the energy and force until you can practice in a more
secluded area. After a while, you should be able to vibrate a name and have it vibrate specific parts of
your body. Some say that if done properly, the practitioner should break out in a sweat much like in
Yogic breathing exercises and have trouble standing at first until he/she gets more practice.

Concerning the LRP
Those who regard this ritual as a mere
device to invoke or banish spirits, are
unworthy to possess it.
Properly understood, it is the Medicine of
Metals and the Stone of the Wise.

Greater Pentagram Rituals
To invoke or banish specific elemental energies.
This ritual taps a far deeper strata of the elemental world and is the key to
the opening and closing of what is known as the Elemental Watchtowers of
the Universe. -- Lon Milo DuQuette; Magick of Thelema
