Here's a relatively "unhitched" ritual without some of the elements of
tradition and belief common in GD->OTO rites.

Gnostic Banishing Ritual:  

-Face any direction that is comfortable and appropriate.

-Prepare your mental/spiritual energy or soul fire as fit. 

-Begin the vibration of the following vowels visualizing them
engergizing the appropriate body zones:

I (EEE) : Top of head  or third eye

E (EHH) :  Throat/ Voice Box

A (AHH) : Heart or theoretical soul center area

O (OHH) : Navel or just below

U (OOH) : Genitalia or perineum


-Begin Loop:

:After completing this, starting in the direction you are facing draw
a pentagram or other five-node figure in the air with wand, dagger or
what-have-you. At each of the five nodes, emphasize one of the vowels
in the order above, or at least in the order you choose to vibrate.

:Turn 45 degrees in either direction (widdershins or counter clockwise
is traditionally used to banish)

:IF (facing point at which you started) // Eventually zap 8 nodes
   Break loop

-End Loop:

-End as you began, vibrating the vowels while empowering your body.


Hope this helps you decide I spend too much time w/computers &&
!people as well as your own concerns.
