Do u always need to ...

No the circle is not a necessary tool in spell casting, somepeople casts circles because it keep unwanted energies from entering, also unwanted intities.

Some people consider the circle a barrier of energy that keeps energy contained and bad energies out,others think it is just a doorway to another dimension or world or something like that.

Yes the circle is a symbol of protection
If it something that could bring things that are very negative you cast a circle
Because in my opinion when you do a spell you open yourself to the world

In my opinion I have to say no, you do not need to cast a circle for your spells to work. For me I practice some folk magicks and I personally dont cast a circle every time I cast a spell or do a working. If you are just starting out then by all means if you feel comforted by casting a circle before working any type of spell then by all means do so.

Blessed be )O(

I forgot to add a sentence to my post
You don't need to cast a circle when the spell is short and really couldn't bring a negative thing to you
But yes with a lot of powerful rites
I would suggest casting a circle

My opinion that is

My opinion that is

I depends on what belief system or path you are following. Some will say yes, others will say no. I personally do not do so, I feel they're a waste of time.

There is many different opinions? You do whats best for yourself and use that in all your rituals. But make sure went you do any magic keep it positve in all ways of life.

Ok thank you all for your responses
