Can We Make Our Own Spells? Options

Can we really make our own spells?

Consider what you think a spell is. To me a spell *on the most basic level* is a kind of magick ritual based on the enounciation of voice. So basically if you can do something as simple as speak you can make your own spells. Spells can be more complex and incorperate the use of symbols, ritual tools, physical gestures, planetary alignment, time of day, special events (full moon, eclipse, haley's comet etc). Even more complex spells can work in steps where one performs one action that leads into another that eventually leads to climax.

I'd suggest using the search function or the internet to look up spells. Find a few simple ones that appeal to you can try them out. If they work you can create your own spells using the others as a sort of guideline.

Even more important than vocalizing the spell is throwing your intention behind it (Your Will ... your intention ... is ultimately what powers the spell.)


Your spell has to be meaningful to YOU. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blablabla.gif)


I have a fluffy, flowery, mass-market "spellbook" that I bought at Barnes & Noble that I occasionally read for kicks (IMO, the author is more of a poet than a sorceress: "Fill my wings/Blow winds, blow/To Grandmother's house I go!" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/groan.gif) )



The Universe respects a clear intention. For my money, the best spells are those that are short, sweet, and to the point.

When writing a spell, act is if whatever you wish to manifest has ALREADY happened ("I NOW have ... ", "I AM ... ", etc.)



Minus your intention ... your Will ... your certainty that whatever you intend to manifest will come to pass ... the most powerful "spell" in the world will be nothing more than empty words. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
