 These definitions are merely direct translations and do not    represent the true meaning of the "Seal of 9 Characters". The 9    Kanji characters do not have independent definitions. The spell    only makes sense when you hear the full sentence as follows:    "Nozomeru Hei, tatakau mono, kaijin wo hari, retsu wo tukutte, mae    ni ari" Which Means: "Confronting Soldiers, Ones that battle,    everybody making a formation, making a row, and is present in    front". So in other words, the spell is a warning to the evil    spirits that the army of God is nearing, so leave immediately.
