God forms used?

Should the God forms/Angels/whatever one uses as symbol sets for the Quadrants be thought of as outside one's Magick Circle protecting it? I am asking this as I don't recall reading exact specifics on this. Further, are they also the four parts of the soul projected into the quadrents. The reason I am asking is that if they are one:Protectors, I would want them outside I suppose. If they are to be thought of as two: Parts of the soul projected; I don't think I would wish them to be outside my circle. Obviously I am sure this is an uninitiated question; however, am trying to get this understanding for higher than just the L.B.R.P. I am just feeling some of this in my daily routine and would wish to know if I am on the right track.
thanks........

Often (but not always). Or, alternately, they themselves form the actual perimeter.
"Further, are they also the four parts of the soul projected into the quadrents."
They are certainly symbolic of some sort of projection of aspects of oneself; but your question is so broad that one can't necessarily give a flat answer. Different magicians working different formula for different purposes with different "God forms/Angels/whatever" would warrant different answers.
"The reason I am asking is that if they are one:Protectors, I would want them outside I suppose. If they are to be thought of as two: Parts of the soul projected; I don't think I would wish them to be outside my circle."
The perimeter marking "outside of the circle" or perimeter of one's psyche is formed by part of that psyche - not by something separate or external.

Thanks Jim. Sorry, U r right in that I made this to broad. Most of the reason that I am asking this this way is that I am seeking new ways of using different Rituals that I havn't really any experience w/and have only tried once or twice, e.g., Liber V Vel Reguli (Very atracted to as it uses Crowley's Unicursal Hexagram ) and maybe Liber XXV, The star Ruby, both of which as I said am not very experienced with. I try and be careful w/how I see Projections; however, I got a bit of advice in a thread we were in before together, that maybe I was a bit to shy about moving on. What are the dangers if any with these and what further advice would you give here? I have a Gigantic pentiant for Egyptian God forms and use them alot. I'm not so hip on Angels to be Honest.
thanks...........
