How to Make Wiccan Spells Personal

When a Wiccan casts a spell, it is a form of self-expression. The more personal the ritual, the more powerful the results. This is because we believe we are using our own powers to create change, not calling up some demon and bidding him to do our will. Spell casting is serious work and carries moral obligations. Read on to learn how to make Wiccan spells personal.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• Paper and pen
• A quiet place
• Object of focus

1. Write down your desire and why you want it. This isn't as simple as it seems. You may believe a lover or more money will make you happy when it's really self-reflection and self-exploration that will help you through a bad time.
2. Identify a personal object that represents your desire. Remember that Wiccan spells work best when you identify the "what," but leave the "how" up to the power of the divine. Use a love poem or love song that means a great deal to you rather than a picture of the person you think you want to be with at the moment.
3. Research correspondences you can incorporate into your spell. This includes colors, essential oils, stones, metals and even food. For example, jasmine oil, a pink candle and chocolate are appropriate for love spells.
4. Plan your Wiccan spell in your book of shadows. This lets your subconscious dwell on your purpose and method. Leave room for improvisation but incorporate your objects in an organized way to allow you to focus.
5. Choose a quiet place and time where you won't be disturbed. You must feel comfortable in that space to be able to focus.
6. Begin every spell with meditation. Use the things you chose in step three to help you focus. They hold no power within themselves. It is your visualization and intent that make the spell powerful.
7. Give your spell a month to work. Explore other personal objects representing your desire if nothing is happening after that time period and cast another Wiccan spell using these other objects, following the above steps.

Tips & Warnings

• Always remember the Threefold Law. Trying to control others with a spell will make you suffer many times over.
• Don't force something to happen. Sometimes letting go of your desire will make it manifest.
