Using Candles for Crafting and Magic

Candles for Crafting and Magic

One form of magic is called candle magic and it is special because it uses the energy of fire to make things happen. When you focus on the energy that is stored in the candles, you can raise your ideas and your intentions, and you can see that you can bring greater energy to your life.

Candle magic can be used for spellcasting, and it can also take our thoughts, emotions, intentions, feelings, wishes and more and cause them to be able to make the candle magic come to life. This is a way that you can set an intention with something that you can see such as the flame or the candle.

Every witch decides what kind of magic is important to them and those that choose candle magic find that they can use the power that is deep inside of themselves in order to shine and in order to make things happen.

Even though we believe in candle magic, this guide is not intended to cause you to use candle magic and it is your own path that you need to follow. This is just a guide to show you a new tool that you can use. Always use your intuition to guide you and to tell you what kind of magic you should use on your journey.

Colors and Meanings of Candles

The interesting thing about candle magic is that the colors of the candles can cause a different outcome in your spellcasting. Each of the rituals and spells that you do can have a special candle that corresponds with it.

Candle Spells to Use

You might wonder if you can actually do a spell with candles. This is where the magic is and there is no right way to do candle magic.

Magic is something that allows you to use your own power form within and when you do spells, you can do different things and use different tools.

There are some witches that practice magic by using candles, but no witch is the same and there is no real instruction manual for doing witchcraft.

You can make up your own ideas and you can learn along the way. Make sure that you are listening to your intuition and that you are letting your inner self guide you and lead you.

Understanding yourself and your inner being can help you to do spells with candle magic and to see things work out the way that you want them to.

Dressing Candles

You have to choose what candle you want to use for what spell you are doing. You should always feel in your heart what candle is best for you and make sure that you are dressing your own candle in the process.

Steps to Dress a Candle

The first thing that you have to do is to make sure that you know what you want. Set your intentions to whatever you want because your intention is what will play the role in what happens next.

The goal is to make sure that your candle is charged with your will power and with your being and that you are clear in what you want and what you desire.

Blessings and Cleansings

Some witches do not feel the need to bless the candle or to cleans it and they will often miss this step. If you want to do that, it is up to you.

Blessing your candle is a way that you can show the spirit world that you are open to what it wants to show you and that you are thankful for the tools that you have at your hand.

You can take a smudge stick and light it and cleanse the candle and the area around it and say a chant that is thankfulness for what the candle means to you. This will help to get rid of any negative energy that is associated with your area or the candle.

Make a Request

You need to then make a request on what you want the universe to do for you. The universe can use the power that you are giving it to work with you.

Some will write the petition down or some will carve it into their candle so that they can see it when they do their spellcasting.

Using Oil

Another great thing that you can do when spell casting with candles is to use oil. This is something that you can add to your candles, and you can add it to your rituals. You can use oil that has a scent to it that you like, and this can hold on to its own energy along the way.

Make sure that you use the right oils that work with your candle to make the spellcasting stronger.

Herbs

Some witches will add herbs to their candles so that they can bring in more energy of Mother Earth. This is a way that you can reach your desired spell and bring on extra energy along the way.

Charging the Spell Candle

Dressing your candle is the way that you are charging your candle so that it can be ready for you when you are ready to do your spell. This helps you to clear your mind and to have things in front of you that you can touch while you do your spellcasting.

You can hold the candle and add herbs or oils and you can do other things such as put it by crystals. When you charge your candle though, remember that this means that you are transferring the energy from yourself to your candle.

Spell work is a way that you can take your emotions and your feelings and set intentions to make something happen. When you send your emotions into the candle, it can help you to make your spell work.

You can also take your candle and hold it with both hands and focus on what you want to happen. This can cause you to make your mind stronger and make your intentions better.

Always make your own choices when you are charging your candle and do whatever it takes to transfer the energy from your body to the candle and let the intentions manifest what you are trying to do.

This is one way that you can make powerful magic from something that is small.

What Does the Candle Flame Mean?

Make sure that you seal your intention and when you burn the candle, you will see that the meaning is partly in the flame.

When you do candle magic, you will often wonder why the light is burning and why it is so bright and what it means if the candle accidently goes out.

There are some situations that you need to be aware of when doing candle magic.

Burning Clean

When you have a clean burn, the spell worked how you wanted it to. This means that you put enough energy in the spell to make it work and it will happen when the time comes.

Large Flame

A large flame can mean that the spell is working faster than you expected it to. This is a time to be excited and confident about the spell and what will happen next.

Small Flame

A small flame will burn slowly and will burn in an even way. This can mean that your request is being held up and something is against your spell.

Hard Moving Flame

If the flame is having a hard time moving or it seems to be struggling or going out because of its own wax, this means that the candle magic is not working. The spell time might not be right, or you might not have the right amount of energy that you need to make the spell work.

If the flame does go out, you need to make sure that you wait for a while before you do the spell again.

Dancing Flame

A flame that is dancing can mean that the spell will probably happen, but it might be something that you never imagined would happen. The way that the flame is moving might mean that things are going to happen that you never expected.

Flickering Flames

Flickering flames can mean that a spirit is with you when you are doing your spell. This can be a good thing because it means that the spirit has heard your request.

Popping and Snapping Flame

A flame that is snapping or popping is probably talking to you. The spirits are more than likely trying to reach out to you, and they are trying to figure out what your message really is. You need to pay attention and see if you can be clearer in your intentions.

Candle Burns Out

If the candle burns out it doesn’t mean that this is a bad thing, but it can happen for two reasons, the first reason is that the spell is not going to work because the spirit world is against it or because the spell has already worked and is complete.

Divination and Other Psychic Gifts

Divination

Divination is the way that you can use your psychic giftings such as clairvoyance in order to create magic. You can clear your mind and learn to believe in yourself and your intuition and use it to manifest things into your life.

Use divination to reach the secrets of the universe. Divination is a way to know the future in a clear way. You can find out what will happen if you keep living your life on the path that you are taking or what can happen if you make changes.

Sometimes people think that fortune telling is confusing and they watch it in movies, and they think that it is fake or a folklore.

No one is able to really know what the future is going to bring because of free will but people can look at insight and look at the higher consciousness in order to figure out what will happen if things do not change. This is a way to bring clarity to the situations that you face and to see things from a different perspective.

You can use different types of divination and you can even use divination in your spellcasting or rituals that you do.

Kinds of Divination

There are different forms of divination, and it is important that you understand more of it before you choose to use it. As with other things, learning is one way that you can get comfortable with something that you don’t quite understand.

Divination methods are different depending on how you use them. Once you understand divination, you will use your own concepts and make them personal to you.

There are many different divination methods that are known because they have been passed down from generation to generation.

Tarot Divination

Tarot is one way that you can tell the future by using cards. You can do a simple reading and find out what you want to get information into. Use the spread of cards in order to understand things and interpret it for yourself or for others.

Scrying Divination

Scrying is another form of divination that you can use in order to get visions. You can get visions depending on what you look at such as a body of water, a crystal ball or even a mirror in order to change your state of being and to make you more aware.

Some people will see visions and others will see words or symbols that they can piece together to know more about the future.

Pendulum Divination

Some people will use pendulums because it is an easy way for using divination. This is a way to get yes and no answers to questions that you need answers to.

The pendulum will be tied to a chain or a string and held up and the reader will ask questions. Depending on which way the pendulum swings will be determined on what answer you get.

I Ching Divination

The ancient Chinese divination is called I Ching and is one that is used with a book called the “Book of Changes.” This is often used now, and you can use coins and a pen in order to ask your questions. Once you ask the question, you throw the coin, and the coin will tell you your answers.

Rune Divination

Rune divination is often like tarot cards, but you use stones or wood instead. There are runic symbols that are common, but it was often used by Elder Futhark, and he created there to be 24 or 25 runes.

There are two ways that people can use runes and the first one is to cast them on a table or cloth and decide the meaning and the second way is to pick different runes out of a bag and make a spread like a tarot spread.

Ogham Divination

Ogham divination was used by Celtic Ogham and is an alphabet that is carved into stones. This can be used by asking questions and then taking 1 to 5 of the staves out of a bag and reading the meaning of them.

Bone Divination

Bone divination is a lot like rune divination. You ask a question and then toss the bones and see what kind of guidance they give you.

This is not often used because people do not like to use bones, but many Animist witches will use this method of divination because they have a strong connection to bones.

Candle Divination

Candle divination is used by looking at the candle and how it burns. The reader can get answers to their question by the way that the candle burns, the wax melts, the smoke, and the flame go.  You can ask the candle questions and get answers.

Crystal Divination

Many psychics will use crystals and they will use the crystals to find out the future. There are three black crystals that you can use that can tell you about the future. There are different crystals that are put into a bag and the reader will pull them out and answer the questions.

All black can mean no, all white can mean yes, two whites and one black can mean most likely to be a yes and two black and one white can mean most likely to be a no answer.

Tea Leave Divination

Tea leave divination is an easy way to tell the future by reading the tea leaves. Most people do not have enough tea leaves to get answers but now days, many people use coffee and wine to swirl around and get the answers that they need.

Tea leave divination is one way to read symbols in order to predict what the future is going to hold.

The Eight Different Holidays of Witches

Witches

There are eight different holidays that witches celebrate worldwide in order to practice their beliefs. These eight holidays are called Sabbats. These are found in the wheel of the year, and this is a type of calendar.

The Wheel of the Year calendar is in eight different divided sections that are equal parts. Each of these sections start the season and also notes their midway point. The sabbats will fall in one of two different categories.

The sabbats that are not as known are called the sun sabbats. This includes Yule, Ostara, Mabon and Lithe. These are the ones that start each season off and are known as the equinoxes or the solstices.

The other sabbats that are more known are the moon sabbats or the earth festivals. They include Samhain, Lammas, Beltane, and Imbolc. These are the sabbats that mark the midway point of the seasons. These fall on one specific day unlike the sun sabbats because they change depending on the year.

The Western European pagan traditions that happened before Christianity are the ones that invented the sabbats. These were festivals and other celebrations that were made in order to honor the earth and the gods and goddesses.

Yule

The Yule happens around December 21 and is part of the winter solstice. This is the time where it is the shortest day and the longest night that happens each year. This will be a time of darkness but it will also be the beginning of the light to come back to the earth and so it is a time of happiness.

Many believe that the Yule is a time where the god of the sun is reborn and that he will bring light to the people of the world. This is also a time where a power exchange is celebrated between Holly King and Oak King which is a cycle of the seasons and a point to show that the seasons never come to an end.

Even though it is cold during this time, it is a time to reflect on what life has to bring you and to look back at where you have come from over the past year. Take time to spend with family members and remember those that have died. This is a time to honor those that have passed on but that are still with you in spirit. During the Yule, it is a time to celebrate and have get togethers.

One thing that is important about the Yule is that you can burn a yule log during this time as a reminder that no matter how dark things get, there is always going to be light into the next cycle that the universe gives you.

  • How can I tell someone I am a witch? You can tell them your journey and share different details about your life. You should never hide who you are, and you should tell people. If you lose friends over this, that is on them and not on you.

Should You Be Labeling Your Magic?

Magic

It can be hard to find the right kind of magic for yourself and it is something that witches have struggled with for years. Even though it is hard to find the right kind of magic sometimes, the length of time that you have been practicing can help you to know what level you want to be on and how to move on to the next level in your crafting.

A Year of Less

People that are brand new witches, meaning one year of practicing or less, know that they have so much to learn that they might have a hard time knowing what kind of magic they want to do. There is so much that they have already learned but there is so much more to go. There are thousands of different kinds of magic and there are hundreds that are practiced right in North America.

People that are at their early stage need to focus on the basics. They need to learn as much of the different magic that they can. They need to learn theories of magic and what kind of tools you can use. This is magic that will give you a different taste of all the other magics. This is a time where most witches will buy a bunch of stuff, but they will only use or read a portion of it, and they feel bad after doing this.

When you think of the beginning phase, you need to see that you need to try different things. This is often called the buffet stage because you don’t want to fill your plate up with only one kind of food, but you want to try out many. This is the same way with your magic. You want to see enough different kinds so you can explore them and look at what they all mean.

You will want to look at them and get an idea of all the magic that is available to you and even if you don’t ever finish one kind, that is okay.

This is one of the most exciting parts of being a witch because you are excited and discovering all kinds of new things. You will enjoy these times and you will muster the courage to make sure that you try out everything. Read all you can read and practice all you can all while having fun.

Once you learn about new things, you can try to go to different places such as the library to find books. Find things that are new to you and get familiar with them. Look for different books that have different subjects that you can learn a little bit about and then find something new to read. Get books that you might read and some that you might not. Skim through them and find things that you see that are exciting. If something doesn’t get you interested or excited, move on and find something else.

Semi New or 1-3 Years of Magic

Someone that is in their semi-new stage have probably learned a bunch of different things, but you don’t really know what you know. This is a time where you need to start narrowing down what you want to learn and focus more on what you want to know more about.

Some people in this stage are still new to different ideas and this is a place where you are still learning but you are learning about things in more detail. You might love plant magic so you get books on herbs and plants, and this can help you to learn magic along the way.

People that go to this stage need to spend at least half of their time learning like they did in the first parts of their learning where they learn all different things and then spend the other half learning on things and focusing on things that you like. Some of the books that you just skimmed through are books you need to take back out and read. These are things you need to pay attention to and focus on so that you can learn more about them.

Once you look at books on herbal magic, for example, find more things on herbal magic such as spell books or medicine books. When you finish a few of these books, find books on something else such as on ancestral connections or spirit books. Try different things and find out what you can learn. Find things that interest you and go with those things. You will want to read about things that you find exciting and as you go deeper into your learning, you will want to go back to those resources that you have tried.

This is also a time where some will find out what works for them as a witch and what things do not work well. Some people will like things and these things will work good for them but if they do not resonate inside of them then they will probably never learn much about it.

Middle Ways or 3-5 Years of Practice

A person that is a middle of the way witch will be one that will know what they do and don’t like. They will know what they are good at and what they need to work on. They will have a direction in what kind of magic that they want to focus on. They will have studied different crafts and will find things that they really love.

These are kinds of magic that you will be interested in, and they are things that you will be able to put your energy in. You will be at a point in this phase that you really want to dig deep into certain subjects, and you will do this and get obsessed with certain things.

You have to know that everyone goes through the different stages, and they are important to each and everyone’s growth. This is a time where things will be different depending on who you are. You might find that you want to keep researching a certain subject or you might want to try different things. Try a different subject every couple of months and see if you can find as many resources as you can get your hands on. Focus on that kind of magic for a while and see where it takes you. There are so many subjects that you will love, and you will want to go back to them year after year and learn other styles along the way.

Remember that this is not something that has to be done one certain way. Some people will go back to learning the buffet style because they love all of the different things that they can learn, and some people will want to focus on one thing entirely. This is completely up to you.

This is a stage where you should start using labels. Labels are there to help you to know what kind of stage you are in and what kind of magic you like. Once you get to this level, you will know what you are good at and what kind of interests you have. This will be a time where you can look at your practice and you can learn to label it and explain it to yourself and others. You will be able to use the labels to say what you are practicing but not to define your practice.

Advanced Magic with 6 or More Years

Someone that has 6 or more years is considered an experienced witch. This is where every witch wishes to be. This is the point where you know what you want and who you are. You will know what kind of magic works for you and what kind doesn’t. You will see that depending on what is going on in your life, that you will have different labels that you use.

Labels at this stage are there to help you and they are not always saying what your practice is, but they are a part of who you are.

It is common for people to say that they are a witch at this level but when they are asked what kind of witch they are, they will look at their different beliefs and the way that they practice so that they can figure out what works best for them. They usually do not have a single label but many that show the overall who they are.

When you label your witch crafting, you need to focus on what your magic does for you. Focus on what you do and what interests you have. You can learn anything you want, and you can become better at your magic. Witchcraft is not just about finding out who you are, but it is about fitting in with yourself and your magic. It is about using your magic to make your life better and happier. It is when you can use your magic above everything else and you can learn faster and better than you ever imagined. This is a time where you are learning even faster than you can label what you are doing.

Using Spells to Make Someone Love You

Using Spells to Make Someone Love You

People are beings that want to be loved and they are very social and want to have someone being affectionate to them. The problem is that not everyone can find love fast, and some people need help finding love.

When we talk about helping someone find love, some people will turn to love spells to make someone fall in love with them. When you talk about spells, you can find that love spells are something that people often disagree with.

It is important to learn and know more about spells before you decide if they are right for you.

What is a Love Spell?

A love spell is one of the most known spells and they are often seen as useful when people have a problem relationship, or they want someone to love them.

When you find the right love spell, you can see that your love life can come true, and you can get the love that you want. You need to find someone that is a professional spellcaster though because spells use magic, and it can be something that is very touchy.

A witch or a psychic can do spells by using witchcraft to make someone to fall in love with you. It is important to find a spellcaster that is experienced in doing spells so that you don’t have problems with the spell not working or with negative things coming back to your life.

You need to make sure that you understand that spells are very powerful and casting a spell can make someone fall in love with you and hiring a spellcaster is something that we cannot emphasize enough.

Different Love Spells

There are different kinds of love spells, and they are witchcraft spells that have been done for years and years. Depending on what kind of spell that you are wanting to do, you will realize that there are different spells for different things such as:

  • Spells to attract someone
  • Spells to reunite with a past love.
  • Spells for marriage.
  • Spells for breaking someone up.
  • Spells to have someone commit to you.
  • Spells to make someone love you forever.

Most love spells are easy to understand but here they are broken down in more detail:

Spells to Attract Someone

This kind of love spell is one that normally works. It works by having someone come and fall in love with you. If you get someone to cast this spell right, you will see that someone will come, and they will be passionate and in love with you.

Spells to Reunite a Past Love

This kind of spell can help you if your heart has been broken by someone in your past. This is a relationship where you want to have love and perfection, but this can be one that has went wrong and you broke up with them.

Breaking up with someone is hurtful and it can cause people to be sad and bitter. It is not easy to get someone from your past back, but you can use this kind of spell to get rid of blockages that are stopping them from loving you and coming back to you.

Some spellcasters will use other spells to make this spell more powerful so that the results will be stronger.

Spells for Marriage

A marriage spell is one that can help you to get asked to be married. This can help your partner decide that they are ready to marry you and that they are in love with you.

Spells to Make Someone Commit to You

When you are on your life path you will want to be in a relationship where the person is committed to you. If you are with a partner that is not wanting to commit, you can do a spell to cause them to be more focused on who you are. This kind of spell can work if you are with someone that is in another relationship or someone that is with you, but they have not shown commitment yet.

You can find someone that can cast this spell and help them to make the love between you and them stronger.

Spells to Break Someone Up

If you have a relationship that is no longer good for you, you might not know what to do next. The best thing that you can do is to walk away from the relationship but sometimes this is hard.

When you have a relationship that is not good for you, you can find a spellcaster to help your relationship end with a breakup spell.

Some spells can help people to love you, but some can make someone walk away. Remember that spells are very powerful and if you use a spell to breakup then it will probably be forever.

Love Spell Basics

Being someone new to magic and love spells means that you need to understand what love all spells work is about and how.

If you have never done a love spell and you don’t know how to do one, you need to read online or find someone that is an expert in this.

You can look online and find different magic spells and different ways to cast spells that can help you as a beginner. You need to make sure that you have a good intention before you start this, and you aren’t trying to hurt someone.

Remember that when someone loves you, it comes from the heart, and you don’t have to have someone to claim their love in order for you to be in a good relationship.

Do Love Spells Really Work?

People will say yes and no to this question. It depends on what kind of start that you have and what you are trying to do. Love magic is a magic that will work when you already have a relationship with someone or there is already a spark.

What This Means for You

This means that if a love spell is going to work, both you and the other person have to already be attracted to each other in some way.

Making Your Love Spell Work

Your love spell will work when you are having good intentions on what you want. You need to make sure that you are doing something that is good for you and your partner.

When you are being kind and sincerer and you just want more love, keep your heart open and make sure that you are being positive.

You will attract whatever you put out into the universe, and you will have a hard time attracting someone that is not available to you. If that is what you want and you want to force someone to be with you, chances are that the spell will not work because it is negative energy.

If you are trying to be with someone that shows interest to you, you can use a love spell and it will work for you.

When Do Love Spells Fail?

Love spells will fail if you have intentions that are not good. If you want to find someone to love you that already has love with someone else, you are doing something negative.

You need to pay attention to what love is and not expect someone to love you when you are not out talking to them or interacting with them.

You should go out and find people to meet and hang out with. Find people that have the same interests as you before you even consider casting a love spell. See if love will come to you without a spell first.

You need to always look for signs of people that don’t really love you and do not let someone fraud you into thinking that you can pay to cast a spell because it might not even work. Save yourself from people that are false by finding a spellcaster that is well known and honest.

Love Magic

You can make someone fall in love with you by going out and being the best that you can be and if you feel that you need to do a spell, find a spellcaster that has done love spells before. They can help you to cast the spell the right way.

Remember when you cast spells that you should have good intentions and make sure that you are not out to hurt anyone but to make love happy and pure.

Creating Easy Love Spells

Easy Love Spells

Love magic can become a necessity when you require a relationship that is fulfilling. If you are interested in creating a strong spell, do not try it alone. Seek out a seasoned spell caster that has all the tools you need for a love spell that gets results. Understanding how to make love spell enchantments can help create a happy relationship. There are different ways to help make a magic love spell work, but if you are simply looking for a quick love spell then read on so you will never max out on satisfaction in your love life. However, keep in mind that bringing back an ex may not always work out perfectly if done without an expert and sometimes even an expert cannot make it work.

Effective Love Spell Casting

The most important aspect is to be very specific. The relationship will not be realistic if your spell is not so it is best to be clear about your expectations. Spells are only effective when they are cast on individuals you already know, though spells exist that can attract an ideal partner at a later date. It can be harmful to try to tweak how someone feels about you outright so focus on attracting more intimacy and affection. If you are casting a powerful love spell, seek expert help because there could be negative consequences otherwise.

Love spell casting is linked to the universe directly and it can be dangerous to cast these spells. Make your requests specific and stay with that request. Switching or changing the request can negatively affect your spell. After casting, make sure you do not get preoccupied with the outcome. Cast the spell and wait because being obsessed can influence the outcome in unimaginable ways. Throughout it all, remain compassionate because spells cast in selfishness will not turn out as expected. Always practice empathy while spellcasting to increase success.

Love Spells

You may have heard the more the merrier, but when it comes to love spell casting, stick to one enchantment at a time. Love spells need to run their course before casting a new one. When choosing a spell, you will need to decide between black or white magic. To do this, you need to ask yourself a few questions like whether you intend to spend the rest of your life with the person or prefer something short term. White magic spells boost feelings of affection, but black magic spells are suitable for some relationships. Strong white or black magic is great for long-term relationships, but if you are uncertain seek expert advice.

If your partner already has feelings toward you, white magic can be more effective. If you are uncertain of feelings, go with black magic because they can increase affection not just make it warmer. White magic works faster, but black magic spells will still bring results, it just takes a bit more time. Both spell types require personal items from your partner, so you need access. Black magic will require more though and this may be difficult for some. You will need a great amount of determination for both magic types, but white magic will always be a bit easier.

Choosing the Right Spell

Choosing the right love spell is nothing to goof around with and you need to consider certain factors. These are shared below.

  • Be Certain of Desires – You need to know what you want and stay the task
  • Seek Advice – Seek the experience of others to make sure you are choosing the right spell and then trust in their abilities
  • Weigh Your Options – There are many love spells so make sure you are ready for what will come and choose accordingly. You may need patience to await the outcome.
  • Consider Blowback – Know the potential for blowback from spellcasting and be ready to accept what happens. Make sure you follow each step of a spell to a tee to limit this blowback.

The most effective manner in which to get your preferred partner is through the use of a love spell. Powerful love spells will help you reach your relationship goals and create maximum happiness.

Casting Magick Spells: What to Know

Casting Magick Spells

We all have little rituals and traditions in life, like picking off petals for the love me not daisies, throwing coins in a wishing well, or splitting a wishbone, but these simple acts are more profound than you could imagine. They are all magick spells which means if you have ever partaken, you have been a spellcaster to some degree.

The term “magick” originated with Aleister Crowley who changed the spelling to differentiate what he was doing from stage magic. Crowley counded the occultist religion, Thelema, in the early 1900s and believed magick was unique because it helped push people toward their destiny instead of meddling in the universe and hurting the natural course of the universe which can happen with regular magic. There are three different types of magick that include:

  • Celestial Magick – This is when you are influencing the connection between the celestial and tangible stratums.
  • Ceremonial Magick – This is when magick is performed by a righteous figure who has spiritual authority, often ritualistic and for a large group of people.
  • Natural Magick – This is utilizing natural resources and properties to conduct energy for or during spell work.

Much like other forms of divination, spell work is focused on the idea that within all of us exists an intricate cosmos of energy that is linked to the energy of the rest of the universe. Some believe this energy reflects the universe’s energy. This means that our feelings, thoughts, and actions are influenced by celestial activity. Keeping this in mind, spell work recognizes your energy and magnifies it to direct it to a specific person or issue. Spell casting does not require specific training or rules to be effective. Most prefer a more organic route using earthly ingredients and let their intentions take over. The focus on intention is what differentiates a normal action from a spell. The act of lighting a candle, a verbal incantation, or even burning sage is only spell casting when the action is acknowledged as such. The rituals and meaningful articles are vehicles for channeling our energy to fulfill the intention of the time. They are not magickal alone.

It is important to remember that spells can be cast by anyone and while tips or training are not needed, it is useful to know a few tips to boost your spell from wish to manifestation. A few of these tips and tricks will be shared below.

  • Clear Purpose – There must be a clear purpose behind each spell in order to reap positive benefits. The most successful spells are cast when there is a strong yearning behind the channeled energy and a clear cut request made. Do not overcomplicate the purposes or you will receive diluted results.
  • Avoid Heightened Emotions – When emotions run high, we often have a clouded sense of reason. This can result in desires lacking legitimacy and we can receive manifestations that are not beneficial. When engaging in spell work, we need to be clear headed and neutral emotionally speaking.
  • Avoid Distractions – To effectively channel energy and keep intentions clear, we need to spell cast during a time that is shut off from external stimuli.

Each of the tips below are incredibly helpful for beginner spell casters, but it is also important to know the different spell attributes of a spell to understand how they come together. These are shared below.

  • Identifying Celestial Links – In this universe, all that is invisible and tangible is interconnected in some way. We can begin implementing these laws into spell work by working with celestial bodies that are connected to the spell, like focusing on Venus when casting for love.
  • Making Purposive Actions – Intentions are the key to successful spell work. Any object we choose to use or ritual performed will have a profound effect if they are meaningful to the caster in some way. For example, if the goal is to bring back an old lover than use two candles that are lit separately and then slowly brought together while an incantation is chanted. The two flames can then be brought together as one to symbolize reunification.
  • Forming Contagion – For many spells, the concept of contagion is desirable because it forms a connection between two items with the purpose of gifting it to someone, we hold dear. For example, a locket given to a loved one with intention creates an unbreakable bond that always exists. Holding an item linked to the person at the spell’s center will lead to powerful manifestations.
  • Repetition – A repetitive action serve to build energy even in spells and divination. When we repeat our intentions and remain persistent the odds of manifestation are greater. Also helpful is incorporating rhythm into a spell or verbal rhyming.
  • Protect Yourself – Spell casting leaves the caster in a vulnerable position for attack from external energies. With the soul open, anyone can gain access. To protect yourself, learn to form a defensive armor. Some do this by spell casting in front of a mirror to reflect away evil energies while others use protective crystals.

Ultimately, casting your first spell can be daunting, but do not let it keep you from reaching your full spell work potential. Spells must be cast for good, never harm and with an unemotional state of mind. Remember, your magick intentions are reflective of your soul, so make sure you are channeling positivity and love.
