The Pentagrams of Earth are formed along the Earth/Spirit axis

The Pentagrams of Earth are the only ones used in the Lesser Banishing Ritual as already detailed.

If the pentagrams are to be used by themselves (that is, not in the Greater Ritual of the Pentagram) for

talisman charging for example, where the force needs to be concentrated on the symbol, then inscribe

the pentagrams inside a circle. Otherwise draw them without encircling them.

If the ritual is to be used for invoking a particular Element, use the invoking pentagrams listed on the

left-hand side of the page, and the Equilibrating Spirit Pentagram, active or passive depending on the

Elements thus: If it be an active element as Fire or Air, use the Equilibrating Pentagram for Actives

only and the Element's own invoking Pentagram, and not those of the other Elements. If it be a passive

Element (Earth or Water) then make the Equilibrating Pentagram of the Passives only and the invoking

Pentagram of the one Element at the four Quarters. In closing and banishing follow the same law.

Various arrangements of the Elements with Cardinal Points have been used, including the attribution

relying on their position in the Zodiac (Fire in the East, Earth in the South, Air in the West, and Water

in the North), their attribution to winds, and so forth. In this book we have adhered to the traditional

ascription of Air in the East, Fire in the South, Water in the West, and Earth in the North.

To each angle of the Pentagram certain Hebrew divine Names and words from the Angelic Tablets are

allotted. These are to be pronounced with the invoking and banishing Pentagrams and are set out in the

text of the Ritual. The attributions of the angles of the Pentagram is the key of its Ritual. During

ordinary invocation (without the use of the Tablets of the Elements) use the Divine Name El with the

Pentagram of Water, Elohim with Fire, etc. However, if you are working with the Elemental or

Enochian Tablets, use the Divine Names in the Enochian or Angelic language; for Earth, Emor Dial

Hectega, and so on. The two types of working can be combined.

In the pronunciation of all these Names take a deep breath and vibrate them as much as possible

inwardly with the outgoing breath, not necessarily loudly, but with vibration thus: Eh-he-yay, or Em-or-

r Di-a-l Hec-tay-gah.
