Growing up one of my favorite biblical stories was the battle of Jericho. The idea that an army could tare down a city's walls by marching and blasting a trumpet amazed me. And it's an idea that has some spiritual wisdom to it, as circumambulation is a common ritual practice in various folk magic traditions.
I apply circumambulation to various types of magic, such as claiming/communing with land spirits, for protection work, to tare down other people's spiritual protections, and for building power. Claude LeCouteaux writes about this practice within history and folklore within his book The Tradition of Housespirits, which i highly recommend.
