Poll: Triangle Or No Triangle Options

I am looking for people to share why they prefer to use or not use a triangle. I know some do and some do only once in a while. So share why you do or don't.

I do not use a triangle or circle.
How would you feel if I put you in a prision cell and then ordered you to do something for me?

I use sacrifice af inscence alchohal and burning bread. If I am going to ask something I give offering. The spirits will respect you more if you are bold enough to call them without such protection. The strength of the will should be greater than that of the spirit called. A clever magician's mind alone should be protection enough. Furthermore by conjuring a spirit in a triangle it does not have enough room to fully manifest. Many spirits I have called have manifested in a 12 0r 15 foot diameter.

I use a system of sorcery in which gates are passed which gives one power over spirits.

However if you fear the demon I would suggest you use circles and a triangle. However if you fear that a spirit has the strength and will to harm you then you should not be calling it to begin with. If you fear a spirit it already has power over you. What exsist in the mind exsist in reality.

There are many ways to have power over spirits. One such symbol I have tatooed on my body. A symbol by which all spirits may pay me homage over my heart. Let your mind be your circle. Your will must be strong. A strong wizard will gain power over spirits without need of such precautions. Even if you are not of stronger will than the spirit called if you give appropriate sacrifice and the manner of calling is of a good nature a spirit is unlikely to attack you without cause. If anything you have shown it respect as another soul. These are safeguards for protection. It seems safe to call a spirit in such a manner. However once the spirit is free there is nothing to stop it from returning to the place where you summoned it. When bad things suddenly manifest in your life it may no longer seem such a good idea to have ordered a Goetic spirit around. In any case just be sure that you make a decent offering. No matter the nature of the spirit from my experiance they always respond to sufficient offering. That to them is food. You might do alot for someone when you are very hungry and that person offers you food. And why would you attack one who has offered you libation and is likely to do so in the future?
