Magic circles are an ancient and mystical concept that takes us back to the realms of fantasy and enchantment. These circles, often associated with witchcraft and wizardry, have long fascinated the human mind with their supposed powers and abilities. In many cultures and traditions, magic circles are believed to be sacred spaces where supernatural forces can be summoned and harnessed. These circles are usually inscribed on the ground or drawn in the air, enclosing a designated area for spellcasting or ritualistic practices. The purpose of creating these circles is to create a barrier, protecting the practitioner from unwanted spirits or negative energies while focusing their own magical energy within the defined space. The specific symbols and designs used in magic circles vary across different traditions and practitioners.
The trip to Mysore and the CAL are both on my imminent forward radar, but there will be some more (what I think are) really exciting projects coming through this year, some of which are reworkings of older designs and some that will be brand new.

The specific symbols and designs used in magic circles vary across different traditions and practitioners. Some might draw intricate sigils or symbols that represent their individual magical intentions, while others might use more generic symbols such as pentagrams, crosses, or spirals. These symbols are believed to have significant power and act as a conduit for connecting with otherworldly forces.

The act of creating a magic circle is often accompanied by rituals and incantations. Practitioners may chant, meditate, or perform specific movements while drawing the circle. These rituals are meant to heighten the practitioner's focus and intention, calling upon the forces they wish to work with and creating a sacred space for their magical workings. Within the confines of a magic circle, practitioners aim to manipulate and influence the natural forces of the universe. This can involve spellcasting, divination, healing, or creating talismans and charms. The energy and power within the circle are believed to be heightened, allowing the practitioner to tap into the unseen realms and bring about their desired outcomes. While many may dismiss magic circles as mere superstition or fantasy, their significance and belief continue to persist in various contemporary magical practices. Whether one believes in the actual power of these circles or simply sees them as a tool for focused intention, their allure and fascination endure in our modern world. Magic circles, with their mystique and potential for connection with unseen forces, serve as a reminder of the enduring human desire to explore the hidden realms and harness the powers of the supernatural..
