Spell Writing

Writing your own spells

The following is a short "recipe" for writing One's own spells and
Rituals.
It includes many questions One will need to answer before working on
the spell.

**Know the Basics!
**Know what Magick is!
**Know different ways to raise, direct and ground Energy.
**Know how to cast a Magik Circle.
**Know how to open a Circle.
**Know the basic outline of a spell.

**Know the Intent or Purpose.
What is it One is trying to do?
Heal an illness?
Increase One's concentration?
Bring love into One's life?
Sell a house?
Celebrate a Sabbat?
Before One can begin any Magickal working, One should have a firm
grasp on what outcome One is seeking.

**Know the Best Time to Work the Spell.
Does One know what type of Magik should be worked during the waning
moon, and what type during the waxing moon?
What type of Magik is best worked on the full moon?
The new moon?
What days of the week are best for what types of Magik?
Learn how the Moon phases, and days of the week affect Magikal
workings so One will know when to work the spell.

**Know Correspondences.
Learn which colors will bring what results.
Learn a little about herbalism; which herbs can be used for what
Magickal purposes.
Learn about Image Magik and how it works.
Learn about Elemental Magik; which elements can be used for what
types of Magik.

Basic Working Spell Outline

**Ritual Preparation
Choose a time. Decide the intent. Choose an aspect of the Divine, if
One has wish. Decide how to raise energy (ie: dance, chanting,
drumming, etc.) Choose how to cast and close the circle.

**Cleanse Oneself and the Magickal space.
One can do this with a Ritual bath for Oneself, or through meditation
to still and focus the mind.
One can cleanse individual space with a Magickal broom, or with
incense or burning herbs.

**Cast the Circle




**Invocation to the Power

**Statement of Purpose
This is simply to tell the Power why One has called Him/Her to the
Circle; what One is trying to accomplish.

**Magickal Working
Raise Energy, through soft chanting, drumming or the use of
harmonious Magik music.
Direct or channel this Energy by using candles, herbs, stones or
whatever other correspondences One finds to fit the specific need.
Ground One's Energy when One has completed the working.
