magic circles
Occult protective rings
Magic circles are diagrams drawn to contain and protect practitioners during ritual magic, typically inscribed on the ground with symbols, names, or geometric patterns.
The circle creates sacred space—keeping malevolent spirits out while focusing power within.
In fantasy games and anime, magic circles often appear as glowing sigils that activate spells: A magic circle blazed beneath her feet as she began the incantation.
