Hi to everybody, I have a question about the Shenu Protection Ring.

It was introduced during my hiatus, and when I came back (to my senses, we could say) kind of baffled me, as I was under the idea that circles are typically used to bind rather than protect.

I wanted to ask, how does it work?
And what are those 4 sets of characters around it?

Thanks.

Does the Shenu look like a circle to you?

It is not a circle. It is a Shenu ring. Quite different. Circles are closed, the Shenu is open.

The Sanskrit words around it are the Sanskrit Sat, which stems from Satanas, or the name of the All in All, God, Satan.

Shenu Ring is a sigil in itself. The circle also protects, the circle also represents perfection and life. It can be used to bind, opposed it can also be used to define a focus upon. The circle also can mean the point of your consciousness, the other dimensions, the egg, the everything, the measure of life. Your awareness is a circle etc.

The circle could rappresent the circulation of energy in our soul. The ouroboros comes to mind.
