Difference Between Banishing & Invoking Pentagram Ritual

[1614]

Hello again everyone. So I've seen references to the banishing and invoking earth pentagrams, but I don't know the difference between the two in the case of when to perform either one and am I correct that the banishing is the LBRP and the invoking is the LRP?

Your help is greatly appreciated, thank you.

Remember that in the generic Lesser Ritual of the Pentagram you're not invoking/banishing the element Earth in particular; it's just that the pentagrams are drawn the same way.

"but I don't know the difference between the two in the case of when to perform either one and am I correct that the banishing is the LBRP and the invoking is the LRP?"

L.R.P. = Lesser Ritual of the Pentagram (generic name: can be either)
L.B.R.P. = Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram

By banishing you ground yourself, get rid of unwanted "stuff" and as a whole purify the space. By invoking you sort of go upwards, light yourself up and call forth generic spiritual energy, so to speak. (That doesn't mean there isn't a purification and an influx of LVX in both; there is. It's just that they go in different "ways.")
