+++ In a hermetic school I'have joined we practiced it regularly and 
it is highly recommended generally. (similar the middle pillar 
exercise). I had practised the lesser b.r. of p. for some time and 
found it had a quite strengthening and grounding effect. At the 
moment for me, there is not enough time doing it - concerning the 
more important exercises of Bardon IIH, some Qi-Gong etc.

If I may ask - do you not recommend it at all, rather - because from 
your experience, the Bardon exercises are simply enough here - or 
out of another specific reason, concerning the pentagram ritual 
itself?

kindly regards
