Witchcraft:A Guide to Magic

Often times people ask me if I have spells. Yes, I have spells. Some have worked,

some haven't. What a witch must keep in mind is that what works for me, may not

work for another witch. Magick is within everything. How it is perceived is different

from witch to witch. Some think patchouli oil is the best oil for a prosperity spell. I

prefer clove oil and have had success in using it. One of the wonders of magick is

that there is normally a wide variety of correspondences to choose from for any one

desired result. There must be about a hundred different herbs listed for love and at

least thirty for wealth and money (a few of which I have listed). I prefer to performcandle magick. Candle spells are simple, they are not time consuming (very

important to a witch with little time) and they work. When I do a candle spell, I

carefully choose an appropriate color for the candle, a stone, an oil, and three herbs,

one for the physical realm, one for the mental realm and one for the spiritual realm,

plus one more as a type of catalyst (normally these catalysts are either Dragon's

blood, Mandrake or Mistletoe). How do I pick my correspondences? First, I must

know what I'm doing the spell for. Is it a prosperity spell, a healing spell, a spell to

find a new job or maybe to improve communication with a loved one? Once I

determine what I'm trying to accomplish, I hit the books. Within my library, I haveseveral books that index what various colors, herbs, oils and stones correspond with

various desired results. I try to be as specific as I can and try to blend my choice of

correspondences to better "describe" my desired result. If I'm going to perform a

prosperity spell, what attributes are going to be needed to reach the final goal?

Creativity, physical strength, courage? I try to chose some herb or the oil to

correspond with those added aspects and keep in mind that most herbs and oils have

several attributes. Its is very possible to have an herb with the attributes of both

wealth and, say, strength. With one herb you can accomplish two ends. I leave the

color of the candle to the core of the spell. For a prosperity spell, green, a banishingspell, black. The same applies to the stone I use. I leave it to the core of the spell.

Having said all that, now I must also add, use what you have! One of the first spells

I did I literally raided my spice cabinet for the herbs I needed. Okay, so maybe

fennel would not have been my first choice, but it worked! I am fortunate to have an

orange tree in my back yard. Yes, I use the leaves, blossoms, fruit, and bark in place

of other possibly more popular herbs. Use what you have! Once I've gathered my

correspondences, I then charge them with the purpose of the spell. How is this done?


2/20

There are a few techniques that must be utilized for this part of spellworking.

Ability to Meditate This is the art of clearing the mind of all mundane thoughts and

feelings. It is a state of relaxation and peace, the goal to reach a state of non-

thought. This is not easy and I still haven't mastered the technique yet, but do the

best you can. There are several very good books on the subject and even in many of

the books on Wicca and witchcraft there are simple techniques to help in masteringmeditation. This is essential to spellwork. Your mind must be at peace so that you

can focus on what you're trying to accomplish. Ability to Visualize This is the

ability to see with your mind, not with your senses. Although it is called

visualization, remember, use all your senses! Close your eyes. Within your mind's

eye, see a tree, whatever kind of tree you want or are familiar with. Let your mind

see its limbs, its leaves or needles (depending on the type of tree), the trunk, etc. Let

your mindfeelthe bark. Is it smooth, rough, spongy? Does the tree have a

fragrance? Let your mind smellthat fragrance. Let your mind hearthe wind as it

rustles the leaves. Visualization is not easy for some, but with practice you canvisualize anything. (Taste also falls into this category, but for our little discussion,

tasting a tree may not be prudent.) During spellwork you will visualize your goal

(and be specific and detailed!) before directing it into the item you're charging.

Ability to Direct Energy This is the ability to take the energies of the

correspondences and your own energy and directing it towards your goal. When you

charge an object, that energy is initially coming from you. From within yourself

imagine (visualize) a bright light, maybe white or the color that corresponds with

your goal, forming within yourself centered between your chest and stomach. Let

that light grow and expand. Then direct that light up through your body, down your

projective arm, out your fingertips (or through your athame or wand) and into

whatever your trying to charge. While you direct that light, that energy, you will be

visualizing your intent with as many specifics as you can. It is important to realize

that magick is energy flow. It is not power. All spells create a tangible connection

between the objects used and yourself. When you work magick, be specific, but be

careful! If you do a spell for a new job, remember to be specific in that your new job

doesn't come at the expense of another! "An Ye Harm None" Remember these

words when you work magick. As you finish your spell, (for me after I light the

candle), I add something to the affect of "May the energy of this magick harm none

and take a path that is for the good of all involved." For candle spells rememberthat the flame must be allowed to continue to burn until it goes out on its own. I use

three and seven day candles that are in glass jars. You can sprinkle your herbs on

the top of them and they are safer. Remember not to leave a burning candle near

drapes or where something flammable may fall into the flame. Keep in mind that

the glass jars get hot, so handle with care and as the candle reaches the bottom of

the jar, make sure the candle is not sitting on something that might burn from the


3/20

heat. I suggest getting a ceramic dish and put some sand in the bottom to act as

insulation. When I leave my home, I place the candle in my bath tub, just in case. If

for some reason it gets knocked over, there is nothing in my tub that could catch on

fire. For positive spells, once the candle is out, use the stone as a talisman. Carry it

with you or put it someplace where its presence will have an affect. For banishing

spells, very carefully remove all remnants, of the candle, especially the stone,without touching it. Wrap the remnants in white paper and bury it outside,

preferably some distance away. Remember to write down your spells! You can

either keep these spells in your Book of Shadows or elsewhere. My Book of Shadows

is riddled with pieces of paper, napkins, whatever I happen to jot notes and spells

down on. Some choose to use their computers as their BoS. Regardless, with the

spells written down, can keep track of what works and what doesn't and you can

also keep track of what you are doing while you're doing it. A few words about

magick and ethics. Most magick, at least initially, is done for yourself. There will be

times when spellwork will be used to benefit other people. Any ethical witch WILLNOT do a spell that will affect someone else specifically without that person's

permission. A witch must respect another person's soul path. What if you can't ask

them (i.e. you can't reach them, the person is unable to communicate, etc)? Then

you must honestly consider if that person would object. If your favorite aunt were

deathly ill and could not communicate, and you wanted to do a healing spell for her,

you would need to consider if she would agree to the spell if she could. If she were a

devout Fundamentalist Christian, chances are pretty good she'd say no. You must

respect her choices and her soul path. No witch in their right mind will perform

magick that is intended to manipulate, control or harm another. Remember, what

you send out will come back to you threefold. A witch should never sell a spell. If

someone asks you to do a spell for them, it is not unreasonable to ask them to cover

the expenses of the materials used, but other then that, no money should be received

for the magick you do. That is counter productive and can cloud the intent of the

magick. When someone asks you to do a spell for them, if possible, instead of you

doing the spell, teach them how to do it. The spell will have a better chance at

success and they will have a better understanding of how the magick works.

Colors. We perceive them as bright or dark, deep or light, sort-of this and sort-of

that, but regardless of whether it's a royal blue or an earth brown, color affects us.It has been proven that colors have an affect on our brains and they do produce

different emotional results. What do you think of when you see red? Passion?

Maybe Anger? Regardless, the response is dramatic. Colors as used in magick are

similar in that they should evoke a response from you, but keep in mind, your

response to say purple, may be different than mine and this is perfectly okay. If you

see pink as healthy or health, so be it. The colors must have meaning to the person

using them. The magick of colors can be used in many different ways, just let your


4/20

creativity show you the way. The use of colors in magick is only limited to what you

want to use the colors for. Candle Magick, Mojo bags, pottets, robes, and alter and

tool decorations all benefit from the use of colors. How will you use them?

They can be found anywhere. From backyard plants and frontyard trees, to even

our grocer's produce section and spice selections. Herbs are probably the most

accessable of the correspondences used in magick, although some of the various

varieities may take a little searching in order to obtain them. I am blessed with a

family that lives in an area that is covered with a wonderful variety of trees and

plants and I frequently aquire some of my herbal correspondences from there. Find

books with listings of the local flora for your region and you might be surprised as

to what is available in your neighborhood. Also, there are many wonderful books

available that have extensive lists and more information on how to use herbs in

magick and everyday life. One such bood is Scott Cunningham'sEncyclopedia of

Magical Herbs published by Llewellyn Press.**Warning!!**Some of these herbs are poisonous and should be treat with considerable respectand by all means, they should NOT be ingested! Before working with any herb,

make sure you know what you're working with! Be sure to keep all your herbs out of

the reach of children and pets.

"Contrary to what you may have heard, magic is a natural

process."--Scott Cunningham

Crystals, stones and metals have been used by humans for tens of thousands ofyears. They are used to make our homes and have been made into weapons or used

to sharpen them. They also have been used as tools of magick and religious ritual

and as talismans and offerings to the Gods. We may not notice them, but they are

everywhere in our lives. It is not uncommon to find the even the most skeptical non-

believer wearing a birthstone ring, the stone considered lucky for a person born

during that month. Today, the natural energies of stones and crystals are being

rediscovered by a whole new generation. As tools of magick, stones lend us their

energies and provide us with places to store our own energies. They are like natural

batteries, storing within them the energies of the Earth. They come in a rainbow ofcolors from ice clear to solid, glossy black and come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and

textures. They are a direct connection to the Earth that provides us with all we need

for existence. They are found within the Earth, a true gift of the Goddess and God.

Stones are used as talismans to protect from the unknown and are returned to the

Earth to insure the fertility of the fields and the success of the crops. Stone magick

covers all aspects of life: health, love, prosperity, spirituality, wisdom, just to name

a few. In conjunction with candle magick, stones add their energies and concentrate

the purpose within themselves. Because of this, the stone used for a positive spell is

retrieved and used as a talisman. For a negative or banishing spell, the stone is

never touch and carefully returned to the earth far from your home. Before a stone

is used in a spell, the stone should be charged with the purpose of the spell. This is

done by holding the stone in your projective (right) hand and letting the energy that

is within you pour into the stone while visualizing the purpose. Some say the best

stones are the ones you gather yourself. For most of us, this is not very realistic, but

if you can, try to find stones in stream beds or lake bottoms, maybe from a wooded

path or even in your own back yard. Remember, when you do gather stones, ask the

Earth first and then thank it for its sacrifice. Some witches perform a small ritual

before they go on stone gather expeditions, making offerings to the Earth and

praying for a good hunt. Keep in mind that the stones you buy from whateversource (I found a wonderful selection at a Books-A-Million not too long ago), the

stones need to be cleansed of any negativity or lingering psychic clutter. You have

no idea how many people have handled the stones before you or how they were

claimed from the Earth, but you can probably guess that the Earth was not asked or

thanked for its sacrifice. The stones can be cleansed using several methods. Set the

stone in direct sunlight, preferable outside, and let the Sun's energies do the work.


10/20

The stone should stay outside for anywhere from one day to a week, depending on

how much other energy the stone's absorbed. The stone should be brought in every

evening at dusk. Check the stone by placing it in your receptive hand (left). Does the

stones natural energy vibrations feel normal? Once they do, the cleansing is

finished. If you happen to live near a stream or river or maybe on the ocean, you

can use the running water to cleanse the stones as well. This is done by placing thestones in a mesh bag, tying them off somehow so as to not loose them and let the

running water cleanse them overnight. If one night is not enough, leave it for

another. The Earth can also be used, although this method is much more time

consuming. Take the stones and bury them in the earth. Remember to mark where

the stones are buried! Leave them there for a week or two. Check them to see if they

are cleansed. If not, rebury them and wait another week. If none of these methods

are possible, a small ritual can be performed using a bowl of fresh earth (North), a

small basin of water (West), incense (East) and a red candle (South). Pass the stone

through each of these elements while asking the element to aid in cleansing the stoneof all negativity and unwanted energies. Follow the links below to charts containing

information about some of the various stones and crystals and their attributes.

EnergyThere are two basic energies that stones possess. They are eitherprojective, or receptive.

Projective stones tend to be strong, bright, forceful. Receptive stones are calm, inward, peaceful.

OILS AND ESSENCES

Like the herbs and stones used in magick, oils and essences play an important role

in a witch's magickal life. We use oils in candle spells, in potppouri, we rub them on

talismans and stones, we place them in baths, and on ourselves to boost magickal

intent. Remember that oils need to be used in conjunction with visualization.

Essences can be incense, musks and tinctures. The most common essence is incense

which can be bought in almost any large retail store (Walmart even has a small

selection of incense and incense burners) or through metaphysical stores and Craft

supply stores (one of the best supplies of incense I've seen was at a flea market).

The Complete Book of Incense, Oils & Brews by Scott Cunningham is a wonderfulbook that not only lists how these essential magickal correspondences can aid your

magick, but also has recipes for how to make your own. On to the tables.

Bide the Wiccan Law ye must, In perfect love and perfect trust. Eight words the Wiccan Rede

fulfill: An' ye harm none, do what ye will. What ye send forth comes back to thee So ever mind

the law of three. Follow this with mind and heart, Merry ye meet, and merry ye part. Blessed Be.

Your Life by D. J. Conway A wonderful guide to the legendary creatures thatare truly magickal and how to befriend them and enlist their help.

Any of the Scott Cunningham Encyclopedias of magickal

correspondences.

The following book is not for the faint of heart, but I feel it is none the less an

important part of a witch's education.The Malleus Maleficarum (The Witch

Hammer) by Heinrich Kramer and James Sprenger was originally printed in or

about 1486. It was by this horrid book that witch hunters took their cues and

massacred hundreds of thousands of "witches" in the name of Christianity. It is now

known that of those thousands (some say millions) a very small percentage were

what we today would consider witches. Most were women, most were innocent of the

crimes for which they died. It has been reprinted several times over the centuries.

This book is not for everyone, but it is an important source of information about

what we have overcome.
