    Dear David,

    In Geburah it is *you* casting the circle, so you repeat it since it's
    your practice. The circle at the beginning of each Temple initiation
    however is being cast by *Rawn* around all the participants, and it's
    done only once. And yes - the releasing is done counterclockwise.

    It doesn't have to be exact. But as it was pointed out by Peter (maybe
    not so directly :) - the more details you create in your perception, the
    more you will feel the Temple itself. In other words you will get more
    density of your perceptions (i.e. astral density instead of just mental
    one).

    As to the exactness, as far as I remember, in the Introduction to 8T
    Rawn said something about balancing the scripts between 'planning' and
    being 'spontaneous'. So if you don't know how exactly visualise those
    things, just *let them happen*. Follow your own intuition. As far as my
    experience goes, this cannot be done in a "wrong" way :)

    I think it's totally up to you :)
    Just remember, that those Temples represent your levels of self and
    therefore they are quite infinite :)
    So there will be no point when you'll have *all* of e.g. the Malkuth
    discovered ;-) Or at least it's my experience ;)

    On ABC.com it's hidden among Correspondence exerpts :)

    Blessed be,
