Welcome to the craft of spellcasting There is an immense natural power in the Universe that you are a part of. You were born with this natural power. What our modern world has done is harness these natural powers in many ways – electricity, solar power, digital technology – but there is a deep, deep force that has not been harnessed, which cannot be controlled, that flows through all of us. Why don’t you feel this force? Because most modern humans are completely disconnected from their own power. And the secrets to working with this power have almost been lost. Spells are a way of reintroducing you to that natural power that flows through everything, including you. Crafting and casting spells will help reintroduce you to that power source, reconnect you, and that powerful connection with natural energy will help. A Little History of Magic Spells in Witchcraft Let’s look back at the history of spells before we move forward with changing your life. Sounds a bit boring to some of you, right? You’re probably itching to cast a love spell, get the after-school job you want or blitz your exams. Let’s do a little warm-up first. At the risk of sounding like an old-fashioned teacher, it is an important thing to understand the past if you are going to get into your own spellcasting. The past is really important – if we don’t understand it this is the point where our present can go wrong and it inadvertently messes with the future. Patience and Trust are Magickal Many people ask me, ‘How long does it take for a spell to work?’ This is a tricky question but it’s also a very valid one. The length of time is going to vary from person to person and will depend on how you cast the spell, the clarity of your energy, your intent and the amount of follow-through work you do. The more patient you are and the more trust you pour into your energy around the spell, the more magickal your spell will be. Even though timing varies from spell to spell, for many spellcasters the impact is immediate and begins the moment the decision to cast, and to cast well, is made. With every action – from gathering water to lighting a candle – the magickal energy of your spell grows and gathers, ready to be directed toward your purpose. All this energy is generated before you have even cast your magickal circle. And when you go on to cast, then back up your spell with the energy of trust and patience, powerful results soon manifest.
