Inspired by the TV show and determined not to copy their iconic demon trap design, and also committed to the idea that we can accidentally bring intangible consequences about thru imprudent use of symbols, I first decided to use common and semi-recognizable ideas from Chinese and Arabic. Thus I chose the banishment symbol from Arabic, and the ill fortune or bad luck sign from Chinese. I had a little baroque stamp in my kit that when painted red look like a little humanesque shaped demon, and I used a recognizable symbol for Earth from past sci-fi. Then just for fun I chose pi for no other reason than it sounds like “pie,” my own (and Dean’s) favorite dessert. A red circle, surround the red pentacle (5 pointed star) and the space between the points house the tiny symbols just described in a traditional summoning or banishing circle, as shown in supernatural literature. After a time I learned to tool and carve around each of the tiny symbols and fill in the spaces with texture as I choose for each version of the Trap that I produce. So, the story is. . .we are banishing demons and bad fortune from earth while eating pie. And I am sticking to it
