Many 'Occult-related' spiritual paths such as Wicca and broadly generalizing, 'NeoPaganism' in general, emphasize casting a (protective) circle before commencing any practical 'work (ie: "spells," etc.).'
It is also possible to enclose such circle in a further protective square... as well as it may be that the square is what you needed to do all along :)
If you use a popular web-search engine (AltaVista *is* still alive) and search on 'Rose Cross Ritual,' you will find results that indicate that the 'Pentagram Ritual' is protective, it also alerts Astral Critters that "I'm Back...."
I strongly recommend that you research both this and the 'Pentagram Ritual' closely; they are the foundations of *all* practical work.

This is a photo of Antioch College' Kettering Hall, their Science Building. I was a student there, from 1978 to 1982, when I graduated.
[I stand corrected... an Antioch person contacted me and refreshed my memory. While the building was, in fact, donated by kettering, he refused the attribution, saying: "This is a place for people to work, not a monument to anybody (or words to that effect.)]
Antioch is, as it ever has, going thru a management crisis.
The Idiots want to close the College, in favor of the "University," which IMHO, always sucked. The College needs to close the University, but that's a very long story.
Anyhow, I have no idea when this photo was taken. I inherited it from my Uncle, who taught there, but was fired for being "too tough." If anyone would care to take a guess as to the year / make / model of the automobile in the picture, please have at it :)
According to my resources, and attention to Rumor, this photo is 'rare to nonexistent.' When I attended the College, the roof was flat gravel, recessed well below the peak roof in the photo. Rumor has it that an experiment gone awry blew it off...
[I stand corrected here, too... in 1959, the attic caught fire (electrical?); when the building was repaired the former attic was turned into a fourth floor...]
If you don't know who Charles Kettering was, Wiki or Google on the name. He Invented the modern automotive ignition system, as well as the 'self starter; ie: the starter motor.'
