WRITING SPELLS



Below are some steps that will help you get started when writing your own 
spells. Please keep in mind that this is not the only way to write your own 
spells. There is no right or wrong answer when it comes to creating your own 
spells. A spell comes from your heart, not some universal law.


Your Spell's Rough Draft

This is the construction process of a spell.

Define Purpose- Decide what it is you would like to accomplish with this spell.

Locate Correspondences- Look for various herbs, gemstones, colors, etc that 
correspond with the spell and look for other supplies you will need as well 
(e.g. working tools) .Also decide how you will use the correspondences during 
the spell. This could be anything from simply placing them on the alter in a 
given position to creating a charm or amulet.

Casting the Circle- Decide what technique you will use to open and close your 
circle.

Calling the Quarters / Inviting the God and Goddess- Decide what technique you 
will use to call the quarters (the elements) and invite the God and Goddess. 
(Note: this step or part of this step does not always have to be included in 
your spell)

Meditation- Decide on a meditation technique you would like to use during your 
spell. 



Your Spell's Final Draft

This is the sequence in which you may follow when casting a spell.

Set up the Alter
Casting the Circle
Call the Quarters and Inviting the God and Goddess
Correspondences (place correspondences on the alter, light candles, etc.)
Stating the Purpose (this can be done through rhyme, although it doesn't have 
to)
Charging the Charm/Amulet (if you choose to have a charm, this is the time to 
charge it)
Meditate
Thank the Quarters and the God and Goddess
Snuff out Candles
Close the Circle
