Can Someone Tell Me The Difference Between A Spell And A Hex Options

Hello,

I'm new to this, green as green can be. I have recently been on numerous web site pertaining to spells and hex's. I did repeat one hex. However, I'm really not sure of what I actually did. I did read what the hex was for, It was to my liking. Whats the difference between the two. And if I don't fully understand the hex, will it work. Any feed back would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much.

Taking any sort of ritualized action to actualize your intention will bring that intention about. There's a question as to how quickly, in what manner, etc.... the difference between any random individual just picking a spell and firing away, and someone with experience behind them doing the same spell, is that a practiced mage is a sort of 'athlete' of willpower. It's the difference between Jane Anywoman and Venus What's-her-face playing a game of tennis.

Don't be surprised if your hex results in an object lesson for your own life, and don't be surprised if it's a lesson taught rather harshly. Also, try not to miss the point, or the whole process was for nothing.

the difference between a spell and a hex is slim - 'hex' is a sort of category of spells. It's just jargon, although the word 'hex' itself probably has a culturally specific root. Magick itself is an impersonal machanism of nature, so it doesn't care what label you use to categorize your magickal action.

Geeez I sure hope I'm not doomed. I have always belived in the spirit of magic and the dark side. I'm hoping someone or thing will be at my side.

Thanks for the feed back. Btw, how will I know if this went in the right direction, and how soon will results be seen if in fact they any.

If you're lucky, it will happen how it's supposed to happen, in the time it's supposed to happen in. Magick is rarely instant when it's done well, despite most people's claims to the contrary. Just like making a decision too quickly, or forcing an issue before it's matured, magick that takes place 'instantaneously' is usually more superficial. Of course, that's just my experience.

You'll be able to tell when your intentions start to become realized. To truly let it run it's course, you should try and forget about having cast it in the first place. That's part of the purpose of a book of shadows, or magickal journal - you can commit the experience to paper, then forget about it so that it can run it's course unobstructed by the constant tug of your mind.

You're not doomed. While I personally believe it to be basically unethical to cast hexes on people, from the unified perspective of the Force (the unified consciousness, god, whatever) there is no good or evil, simply the movement of energy - action and reaction. All magick, not just 'negative' or 'black' magick, teaches lessons. Every act of magick comes attached to a lesson that is, in my opinion, the true cost of the spell that was cast. When you pay attention and see how the magick affects your life, and then deal with that change responsibly, you effectively accept the cost, and the magick reaches is peak effectiveness at that point. If you ignore the lesson, don't pay the cost, then the effects of the magick will be superficial and temporary, and you'll probably get a sort of causal backlash.

You're in that body, living that life, to learn, and learning is the only thing you're capable of by nature of that configuration. Magick is a tool for picking and choosing the lessons we want to learn. If you feel the need to hex someone, you probably want to learn about negotiating offense, forgiveness, something along those lines. Pay attention and act maturely as the magick runs it's course, and you'll be a better person afterwards; and whoever you put the hex on will maybe think twice about dealing with you next time. Beware of the stigma that may attach itself to you because of it though - go around hexing folk and maybe one day people will steer clear all together; the good and the bad. That's the sort of thing that may happen if you didn't learn the lesson you were asking for.
