Testimony of a satanist who converted to the Catholic Faith after summoning a demon through a ritual circle went terribly wrong:

One Soul’s Escape From Satanism to Catholicism

In 2011, at an Easter Vigil in a simple parish church in New York State, a number of souls were received into the Catholic Church. As it does every year, the ceremony moved from the darkness surrounding the Paschal Fire through the many readings from the Old and New Testament to the proclamation...

Circles, properly used, are hardly in the same category with tarot cards and ouija boards, both of which are specifically used for divination. If a circle in and of itself were bad, then various circular shrines I’ve attended would have to change their shape for fear of calling up a demon.

Please don’t fall into the trap of thinking every little thing is the occult out to get you. You seem to be rather preoccupied on many threads with demonic influences.
 
I feel like your connection is similar to advocating that playing cards (Ace through King) are bad because tarot cards are bad.

I never said the shape of a circle was demonic Mrs Bear. There are circles everywhere. It doesn’t make a circle bad.

I said ritualistic use of a circle as a method to make prosperity demands is a demonic practice.

Stepping inside a circle to gain power from a force, to summon a false deity, etc (as the occult uses this for)
 
We agree the book sounds spiritually harmful. I just think you’re going a step or two further than is reasonable.

I would agree with that. I’m just concerned you may be overgeneralizing in applying it to the actual Honi story
 
Nope.

Don’t worry Mrs Bear I am not going around screaming:

‘Lookout behind you it’s a Circle!’

‘Aaaaaaaaahhhhh’

Yes, we agree on this. It is an incorrect use of a circle.

But there are many other acceptable uses of a circle for Christian prayer.

I can’t really think of any correct use of a Ouija board or tarot cards.
 
If your objection is to “prosperity demands” leave the circles out of it. They are just a distraction.
 
This is a thread about using ‘ritualistic circles’ and ‘prosperity demands’

Both topics apply to this thread.
 
I have actually read the whole book, I started reading it so that my friend and I could get together and pray together as she had suggested. I read 4 chapters and my stomach was in knots. Within thw first chapter I kept telling myself, this can NOT be what this author is saying! Ao I started all over , this timw making notes and checking every scripture reference- which by the way is in the back of the book. A single verse here , half of a verse there- the story of Jericho is the only “passage” that is mentioned in context - He speaks as though Honi is a real prophet throughout the book… though he is not mentioned in the Bible even once ! The fact that the legend of Honi is cited in a wiccan book by a witch who is encouraging the reader to make a circle like Honi and cast their spells within the circles… that is enough to me to know I want No Part of it.
