It IS a magic protection ritual, and it summons an iron gate to protect you from intruders.

Reading your old writing is either ‘my god, I’m an undiscovered genius’ or ‘welcome to CRIIIINGE CITY folks’ and there is no in between

The biggest mistake you can do is undercut your own ability,
straight from its source. You are your number one fan. You are the one
person who should always one hundred percent believe in you most. If you
can achieve that level of self-belief, self-confidence,
self-attunement, then you will pass like a breeze through obstacles, ready to dust yourself off and try again;
because the only limitations that have ever mattered or will ever matter
are your own - and if you impose none on yourself, the universe is
infinite.
"Why does the third of the three brothers, who shares his food with the old woman in the wood, go on to become king of the country? Why does James Bond manage to disarm the nuclear bomb a few seconds before it goes off rather than, as it were, a few seconds afterwards? Because a universe where that did not happen would be a dark and hostile place. Let there be goblin hordes, let there be terrible environmental threats, let there be giant mutated slugs if you really must, but let there be hope. It may be a grim, thin hope, an Arthurian sword at sunset, but let us know that we do not live in vain."
- Terry Pratchett
