Magic circle
open-in-new
<p>A magic circle is a circle of space marked out by practitioners of some branches of <a href="/facts/Ceremonial_magic/Eqb3t6QB">ritual magic</a>, which they generally believe will contain energy and form a sacred space, or will provide them a form of magical protection, or both. It may be marked physically, drawn in a material like salt, flour, or chalk, or merely visualised. </p>
