Spell Casting should not be attempted until you have a greater understanding about magick. Magick is merly energy that we influence to our will. Everything and everyone has energy, this is because energy is all around us.
When starting spell casting you should know that spells will not work instantanously. You will not get the thing you want like *POOF*, spells will take time, most spells take as long as one full moon cycle, but it also depends on the spell itself. It's better to only limit yourself at least one spell per moon cycle, but that is your choice, I say this so that spells don't counter confuse. It can cause backfire.
Here are the main things you will need in order to cast spell;
Belief- This is needed to work any spell, ritual, or anything to do with magick.
Imagination(or Visualization)- Imagination is the key to the mind, in order to cast a successful spell you need to be able to imagine it out, you got to imagine what you want, and what will be the outcome of it. (Meaning what will happen after doing this spell). If it is to a specific someone, you must imagine their face, or have a picture of them.
Focus- Focus will be helpful for number 2. In order to do a successful spell, you need to be focused only on that spell, this means you can't have distractions. This is why most practices are done in a quite space. You can practice and or learn focus, by meditation.
Sometime spells require the following;
Emotion- Emotions are like fuel to energy, showing a certain emotion to a certain spell will fuel it.
Creation of your own spell is most likely to work, this is because when using someone elses spells, you must show their intent. (meaning you will probably need to use their emotions). Creating your own spell will be more easier because you are creating your own intent into the spell.
How do I create my own spell?
This is a question asked very frenquently. How do I create my own spell? Well there are hundreds of ways to create and perform your own spell. Here are a couple of ways that have worked for me;
Invoking the 4 elements- Well the 4 main elements are as you know: fire, water, earth, and air. Not exactly in that order. There is also spirit but everyone uses that.
Invoking your god/dess- Some people invoke a god or goddess to help them with the spell.
I usually invoke the 4 elements to help me in my castings, but that is just me. There are different ways to help you spell cast, but these two help me a lot more.
What are the things we can't do using magick?
Well this question has been brought up and answered in hundreds of non-coven forums. Some people take it to heart and start arguing about it (This usually happens when people start believing they are that thing they are not). Magick indeed is apart of the unverse, but as there is reason why people say that it's impossible to do something in magick, yes you are suppose to have a open mind, but there are somethings that don't work.
The reason why people usually say something is impossible in magick is because it's been practice hundreds of times by different people, but get the same failure result. It doesn't mean that we just don't believe it, that would make us hypocrits. We say it's impossible until proven existence in magick, some people would come back and say something along the lines like this, "Well prove magick is possible." magick is energy, and in order to use it you must believe and follow the top 3 ways to use it.
Magick isn't a "Bad" or "Good" thing in itself, it's how the intent of the user is. If he wants to hurt people using his/her power, then that would be leaning into the "darker" aspects of magick.
Okay lets go back onto track, here are the list of impossible things;
Transformation- Most people come onto sites like this and look for transformation spells, but physically you can't transform into any animal or object.
Casting the elements from your hand- This is usually meaning, you can't control the 4 elements this is because they are ancient and more powerful then us. We can't cast the elements from thin air. We influence the element, we work with the elements.
Body changing- Some people come onto a site like this and look for something to change their body feature this being; Eyes, weight, nose, appearence..ect. You can't, this would involve changing your DNA, which magick can not do. We are who we are.
