Wards, How come nobody ever seems to mention them here? Options

Hey guys,
I've read people talking about use of the LBRP and such for banishing, but I just found myself wondering; how come I never see people mentioning barriers/wards?

A friend of mine and I were doing some Chaos related stuff a while back; we didn't know about the LBRP at the time, but at one point I came up with a sigil to put up what I envisioned/intended as a brick wall made of blue/white light around the perimeter of my bedroom. At the time, it seemed to work fairly well. I've had nightmares and/or wandering nocturnal presences for most of my life, and that seemed to keep them out for a week or so at least.

Does anyone here recommend the use of such things in addition to more conventional stuff such as the LBRP?

Well, I have a method of warding which I differentiate from shielding. For my group, we generally term warding as a set barrier which does not move, and shielding as a type of defense which is moveable.

Warding- (for us)

In this, we gather two large stones, generally of a very grounded type of stone (onyx, basalt, a few others) and we purify them (there are various means to this). We use this as a general method to keep out vicious entities. Set one stone to either side of your main doorway (to your apartment, your room, your home, whichever you prefer, but keep in mind that if you are guarding a home, put them at the house doorway, because putting them in your bedroom will only protect your bedroom).

And when you set them, you must be very specific about what sorts of things you will be allowing in and out.

Generally, we allow in all entities but demons and specific bad spirits who either pull bad behaviour or are very troublesome in our presence. There is no problem for other entities or dreams, etc. crossing through.

Recently I have removed these. It seems that having them set up for the last year/year and a half allowed me to attune to the energies I set within them, and now I am generally able to repell minor evils/annoyances without thinking about it. A subconcious ward was created.

As a note, truly powerful evils will be able to tear down this ward, as we've experienced on only a handful of occasions.
