Featured When talking about witchcraft, we usually think about black magick and how it has put humankind into danger, whether it is scenes from the books or from movies. Magick and spell-casting are surrounded by myths and misconceptions which eventually buried its true essence and principles. For the followers of magick, they would refer it to magick to differentiate from the illusion created by magicians. What are these myths and how come they are not real? Myth 1: Those who practice spell-casting and magick worship the Devil or Satan. For those who practice and follow witchcraft, good and evil is relevant. What is important is that every magick or spell are carefully though over and it would not harm anyone. In addition to that, Devil or Satan is a Christian construct. It is not included in the witch’s pantheon. Hell is another Christian construct and Wiccans and pagan believers do not believe it. It does not mean that because they are not concerned with hell they would commit evil acts. Wiccans and pagans commit good acts because they know that this would reflect later on in their lives and even in their next life. Myth 2: Spells have that visual and sound effects just like in Harry Potter films. Spells, for Wicca followers and pagan believers, are like prayers for Christians. They can be a way of communicating with the universe your intent or desire. Spells could also be a way of communicating with the gods and goddesses. Spells do not have the sound and video effects like in movies. In fact, spells do not have or manifest within the next few hours. Usually, it would take weeks or sometimes months before the spells would take effect. Spells could be about wealth, health, energy, peace and even love. Myth 3. Casting spells would require very rare materials. Casting spells do not require you to use rare and weird materials, just like in movies. Spell-caters would usually use natural materials like herbs, incense, candles, oils, flowers and other essences. In spell-casting, what is important is the emotion and the intent. Focusing your… -
Spells Writing your own spells is what every practicing Witch aspires to. The ability to craft your own spells gives you an advantage over "ready made" spells you can find in other places. This is because you will be putting your own emotion and energy into the spell in it's creation... it will be more "special" to you, and that is the secret of casting successful spells. If you want to learn black magic, all of the below holds true. The ingredients and tools that you use are purely dependent upon not only what traditional magickal properties they might possess, but also what they mean to you as far as symbology goes. There are different ways to set up the wording of your spells. They can be as simple as a two line charge to enforce your will, rhyming couplets (my personal favorite, since it helps me to better remember the words without referring back to written instructions), eloquent and lengthy prose to charge the spell to the energy of your will, or simply the use of repeating or chanting a single word over and over again. Everything that you put into the spell the ingredients, the words, the time of day, etc come together with your desire, emotion, and belief to bring your desired outcome (sometimes within a day). A quick word of warning: you should steer clear of casting spells to harm or control other people in any way. Not only does this go against the Witchcraft Ethics and Responsibilities I went over before but trying to control someone else (or cause harm to them), opens doors in the future that you may not want opened. I have seen people loose everything because they practiced Magick in ways that go against common morality. Always make sure your heart is in the right place, and that you feel good about casting a spell. Now, here are the things you will want to do while creating your spell.
