Amber Riverwood Witchcraft

As Amber says:

Any young human who is old enough to

brush their own teeth is old enough to begin

the spiritual training, commonly known as

witchcraft, to learn about practical magick,

spells, stones, herbs, tarot reading, medicinal

teas and essential oils. All these can become

part of anyone's life, to improve health,

promote calmness, clear thinking and joy.

Improving health, happiness and spiritual

growth are the main goals of witchcraft

in the 21st Century.

Each book includes many spells to cast, and step by step instruction on how to make your magic spells work. One of the most interesting sections for me was an extended description of the process of creating effective spells.

“Step 1: Define Your Intent

The first thing you need to do when you’re writing a spell is to define the intent behind the spell.  What is the ultimate outcome that you want with this spell?  Your spell will likely fall into one of these general categories: prosperity, love, career, protection, banishing, or healing.  They don’t necessarily HAVE TO fall into one of these categories, and they don’t even have to be confined to one category (though it’s a good idea to keep your spell as specific as possible).

For example, if you’re doing a healing spell, you may also want to add an element of banishing the negative energy around you (or for whomever you’re doing the spell). When I write a spell, I take some time and meditate on the intent of the spell.  Visualizing the outcome as vividly as possible is important.  So for our healing spell, let’s say that we want to make a “general” healing spell (that is, a spell that can be used for anyone who has taken ill rather than a specific healing spell for someone).  So the intent for the spell is to bring healing energy to anyone who is physically ill.

Step 2: Define Your Parameters

Okay, so you know why you want to cast a spell.  The next thing you need to determine is what the parameters of the spell will be.  There are a few things you need to look at for this step.  Some spells are written with very precise parameters, such as what day of the week or what phase of the moon it should be performed.  If you’re just starting out writing your own spells (and you probably are if you’re reading this), then try to keep it somewhat simple at first.  Having said that, I do recommend picking a phase of the moon during which you should perform your spell.”
