The Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram is a protective formula which can be used to banish unwanted influences, to "clear the air" as a preliminary to ritual or meditative work. It can be carried out physically, but it can also be used as a concentration exercise which is performed in the imagination prior to going to sleep (for example).
The ritual exists in a number of variant forms, the best known being the Golden Dawn variant. The Golden Dawn version is is based on (or is at least strongly influenced by) Jewish sources.
