Chapter I. Introduction
First of all, let me thank you for enrolling in this amazing group. It is an
honor for me to teach you these wonderful things.
But first of all lets make some light herewhats the big difference
between magic and magick?
The term magic is used to describe the power to "change the world", the
present and the future of persons, and nature. The "k" in Magick was
added by Aleister Crowley to differentiate this kind of magic from stage
magic and other illusions...
What is Magick for real?
Magick is the art and science of causing change, whether internal or
external, in conformity with the Will. You must know that there is no ONE
correct system of magick, as there are an infinite number of ways in which
to accomplish one thing. Reality is Infinite and all things are
interconnected.
If you're looking to learn the real essence behind developing serious skill in
magick, then you must know that Magick is a psychic skill that involves
conscious use of energy to cause change in conformity with the Will.
Magick isn't learned solely from a book, Magick is learned through
practice. I encourage you to read and do everything that you learn from
this book and gifts. This way you'll get better understanding for what
witchcraft holds and you'll get the wished results. You can easily print this
book to read it wherever you like

Chapter II. Getting started
Book of Shadows
Before the invention of books, written knowledge was kept on scrolls.
There was places such the library at Alexandria, Egypt where was said to
contain over half a million scrolls of knowledge collected from all of the
known world. In most of man's history the majority of people could not
read or write. Consequently, books were imbued with a mystique by the
majority of people, representing knowledge that was hidden to those who
could not decipher the writings. That which was most likely to be written
down was the most important knowledge, which to early man was spiritual
wisdom.
The earliest form of the modern Witch's Book of Shadows we encounter is
the book of magical formulas and recipes kept by the Cunning Men and
Wise Women of Britain.
We can trace the beginning of modern magical books to the Greek
philosopher Iamblichus, who developed the concept of 'theurgy,' a belief
that by performing ritual acts, man could invoke spiritual powers to aid
him on his quest for spiritual truth and regeneration.
Followers of Iamblichus developed a body of literature consisting of
magical rituals from various cultures, ranging from the high magic of the
spiritual alchemical Great Work to the low magic of summoning spirits to
find treasure or heal illness.
The modern Book of Shadows originated with the modern Witchcraft
religion of Wicca. Today, the term Book of Shadows has been adopted to
mean the personal magical workbook of anyone who claims to be a Witch.
Sometimes it is helpful to keep a diary of your magical experiments and
research. Such a diary should include the date, perhaps even some
astrological data (or anything else you think may have a relationship to
what you are doing). This is also a good time to begin recording your
dreams -- at least the important ones -- in a dream diary. Your dreams can
tell you a great deal about yourself, and may sometimes reveal
premonitions. Dreams are personal...and don't fall for the commercial
'dream book'.
www.oldwitchcraft.com

But the true most important use of such a book is that you can track what
spells have the biggest impact in your life. You can know (if you write your
own spell read How to Customize Spells first) what spells work for you
and what dont. If you know someone older than you that practices
witchcrafttry to borrow his/hers Book of Shadows. You will get precious
information about spells and rituals.
Rituals
The primary function of ritual is to worship---to celebrate and to connect
with the divine. Dont try do perform a ritual unless you're working a
precise spell. You seethe gods aren't going to care whether your altar
cloth is an old sheet or an intricately embroidered cloth, as long as it's
clean and you have the right the energy.
(It's wonderful to have coordinated altar supplies and make everything
"just so," but if you have to substitute in order to make things right then
do so.)
It's also important to use your common sense in the spiritual realm. Don't
start invoking fire and water goddesses in the same breath or the same
ritual. Don't joke around with ritual objects---they are sacred, even if the
ritual is lighthearted.
When invoking deities you should know something about them. When you
raise magickal energy, have a focus for it---if you let it drift, you're going
to get yourself into trouble, because magickal energy seeks out that which
needs to be done, voids that need to be filled.
Before you start, always plan your actions. Extrapolate on what "could"
happen and adjust that which needs adjusting. Sometimes bad things
could happen and its better to be prepared. Your goal is to enjoy your
rituals, to have fun celebrating the holidays, to show respect and
reverences.
Basic Parts of a Ritual
Usually we think of ritual as bearing on active magick, although certainly, it
can also affect passive magick. Most often the change achieved is
www.oldwitchcraft.com
7
subjective (it may be subtle) and in the physical world. Outsiders may put
them down to coincidence, but the effects are very real. Magical goals for
a ritual should not be taken lightly.
The successful practice of magick depends upon strong belief. The
simplest ritual of them all must be belief itself. If you can believe in your
desired results strongly enough, that act is a magical ritual which will
achieve your results.
Often rituals are more formal than the above, but any full magick ritual
must always reduce to these stages:
1) visualization;
2) prayer;
3) ritual.
Sometimes a ritual must be repeated every day for a while to achieve
difficult results or to overcome weak belief.
Visualization
It is said that your mind follows your attention. Wherever you direct your
attention, there will your thoughts go too. By directing attention to a
specific place or purpose you *focus* mental energy upon it. I know that
for many people is difficult to visualize some goal, but...
If you dont know how to effective visualize your goal...use this incredible
simple and quick formula:
Picture your goal clearly in your mind. The more definite and specific your
idea of what it, is the better. Picture yourself having it or doing it. Visualize
it as vividly and as intensely as you can and hold it in your thoughts for a
few moments.
Use this every time you want to accomplish something. (Did you know that
all famous sports champions use this technique? Nobody knows exactly
why it works...but what matters is that it works.)
Prayer
Here is an short example of prayer:
I thank Gaia for the power she have given me
A channel for her love is what I be.
I return to her the gift she had given me.
I thank her for the power she lent to me for this working.

Ritual
Youll find in the next chapters many witchcraft rituals for protection,
money, love, happiness and health. Here is the first one:
Magick Circle Revealed
The circle is the sacred space in which magick is worked, where you can
meet with the Goddess and God. The word "circle" may be misleading,
though, because actually what you are creating is a sphere that
encompasses all participants and the altar.
The magick circle defines the ritual area, holds in personal power and
shuts out all distractions and negative energies.
There are many ways to create a sacred space. It is more a result of the
focusing of will than of the props and special effects.
First, you need to purify your self. It is common to take a bath, anointing
yourself with oils. Relax yourself...meditation offers great help.
Set up your altar. An altar should have the following tools upon it:
1. Two candles, preferably one white and one black for balance;
2. Pentacle, necessary to consecrate tools upon;
3. Athame, sacred knife for ceremonial use;
4. White handled knife for cutting branches, herbs, etc...;
5. Cauldron or a small earthen bowl for mixing things;
6. Bowl of water, a bowl of salt;
7. Incense holder and incense;
Those are basic tools...some people use bells, for ringing in the ritual and
ringing out the ritual. Some have statues of the gods on their altar or other
representations of the gods (horn for god, chalice for female, etc.), and
some have more candles, colors representing the work they wish to do.
You can also have other things on your altar...i have many stones and
crystals on mine, seashells, fresh flowers, a picture of a dear friend of
mine, feathers, trinkets from my past, poems written to the gods, my Book
of Shadows, etc.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
9
IMPORTANT. All this additional tools have a meaning for me and for the
others like me. Through time and practice Ive discovered that some
objects have a special energy that makes me comfortable and helps me.
Think about this....and decorate your altar with the objects that you feel
they have a special energy. Youll get a better energy yourself and your
spell results will be amazing.
After that you need to combine the five elements Earth, Air, Fire, Water
and Spirit. Let's see how it's done:
Light the incenses and say: Element of Air I call you now, attend me.
Fill chalice with water or wine and say: Element of Water I call you now,
attend me.
Hold some salt and say: Element of Earth I call you now, attend me.
Pick up a red candle and say: Element of Fire I call you now, attend me.
The Element of Spirit may be your God or Goddess. Together these
elements create our sacred space.
Basic Magick Circle Invocation of God or Goddess:
Oh, great Goddess/God/Name
I ask you as your child To open me to your mystic light,
And allow me to channel your power through me.
I pray to watch over me and my circle
And be with me in my sacred right.
Place the objects with their correspondent direction(fire South, water
West, earth North, air East).
Now, that you have the tools of creation you may use them to create your
sacred space - a place of balance between our world and the divine world.
Pick up the athame and trace the circle clockwise. This is your sacred area.
Visualize energy - your will - running out of your hand and through the tip
of the athame creating a protective sphere of energy.
When ending the ritual and closing the circle approach the altar and say:
God/Goddess/Name, source of all,
I thank you
For Your Presence,
www.oldwitchcraft.com
10
For Your Circle,
Blessed Be!
The Magick Circle Ritual is one of most important rituals in magick. Use it
each time you cast a spell.
Magick Pentagram Revealed
The Pentagram is a five-sided star, usually made with a single continuous
line, with the points equally spaced. It is often depicted within a circle.
This is one of several geometric star designs representing the mysteries of
creation and redemption, the soul of man in its relationship with the
Universal Spirit. Magickally, such diagrams are considered efficacious in
rites and rituals of evocation and transformation.
The older word 'pentacle' has been replaced over time by the less precise
'pentagram.' Today, the pentacle refers to an engraved copper disk
engraved with a pentagram used by Witches to represent the element
earth in the magick circle; this follows Eliphas Levi's original illustration of
the tarot suit of coins, which he called pentacles, as coins engraved with
pentagrams.
The pentacle should not be confused with the pantacle. The pantacle is a
many-pointed star design created by a magician to summarize his or her
magickal attainment, and is unique for each individual. The pantacle is also
usually an engraved copper disk and is also used in the magick circle to
represent the element of earth. Both the pentacle and the pantacle are
used on the altar for consecrations, and at times may even replace the
altar.
By the Middle Ages, the pentagram had become a general symbol of
spiritual wisdom and truth, and it was marked on doorways and windows
to keep evil out of the house. There is evidence that the old village witches
made use of the pentagram, which they called the Witches' Foot.
One of the last major developments in the use of the pentagram came
when Alphonse Constant (Eliphas Levi) introduced the upright and inverted
use of the pentagram. Levi used the upright pentagram to represent the
race of man created by God, while he used the inverted pentagram to
represent the demonic race created by the Angel Samael and Lilith.

Lesser Ritual of The Pentagram
One of the most basic and useful ceremonial rituals of magick is called the
banishing ritual, or lesser ritual of the pentagram. The banishing ritual is
helpful in psychic protection and healing because it forms a protective
barrier against evil forces. The psychic barrier it creates can be made to
permit entry of desired (constructive) forces and the exclusion of negative
ones.
The banishing ritual is an essential first step in almost any formal full
magick ceremony. The ritual requires that you use a ceremonial knife,
wand to "draw" the pentagram in the air above your head.
Also, you will be chanting ('vibrating') Eh-Ei-He.
Holding your magical weapon extend your arm out straight in front of you.
In this ritual you will use the full sweep of your arm to draw the
pentagram in the air. Follow the description below by beginning at the
lower left and sweeping your magical weapon up toward the right, etc. as
shown. Do not bend your arm at the wrist or elbow. While you do this,
visualize the lines and eventually the star as vibrant white, floating in the
space before you. You are projecting energy to do this, and the result will
be a gleaming 5-pointed star floating in the air. Visualize this as vividly as
you can. Now you will energize it further by piercing the center of it with
your magical weapon and vibrating "Eh-Ei-He".
One of the primary uses of this ritual is to ward off psychic attack -- that
is, when another is attempting to harm you, cause sickness, accidents, bad
dreams or to force you to do something against your will.
The Mystical Pentagram Technique for Self-Awareness
The Mystical Pentagram is a technique which will enhance psychic self-
awareness. Practiced on a daily basis it will produce surprising individual
results.
To begin, you will need a table of correspondences such as "777" by
Aleister Crowley. Look up the names of the gods and goddesses and pick a
name for each element(air, fire, water, earth, spirit) which when chanted
'feels' right for you.(if you feel relaxed, comfortable and generally positive
you would know that a name would be in tune with my inner self.)
www.oldwitchcraft.com
12
Once you have found the five names you are ready to proceed.
Use the techniques for meditation from Self Self Hypnosis and Meditation
Practical-Handbook. Visualize the five psychic centers. Memorize their
positions so that you become familiar with the positions.
Visualize a brilliant white light forming a circle above your head in the spirit
center. Mentally draw a white light pentagram within the circle of light.
This should be an invoking pentagram.
Next see a shaft of white light radiate down through your head stopping at
your throat. See a circle of white light begin to form and pulsate. Mentally
draw an invoking pentagram within the circle of light and vocally vibrate
your chosen name for the air center. Continue to stimulate this center for
at least five minutes.
Repeat this procedure for your torso(fire), stomach area(water),
feet(earth).
When all of the energy centers have been stimulated, direct the light
energy from the spirit center to the earth center. As you exhale see the
light travel from the top of your head down through your body to the
bottom of your feet. As you inhale see the energy travel from your feet up
through your body up to the top of your head, the spirit center. This
circulation should be persisted for at least seven minutes. See the energy
cleanse and vitalize every part of your being and expand your awareness
to cosmic consciousness.
Continue to repeat this technique each day you will begin to see and feel a
change in your psychic awareness and a marked improvement in your
health. Don't become discouraged if you don't achieve results immediately.
This technique produces very positive effects but they are cumulative in
nature.
Artificial Elementals
An artificial elemental is useful for certain tasks:
1) invisible watcher and observer, telling you what it sees;
2) psychic guard;
www.oldwitchcraft.com
13
3) it can be used in healing;
Producing your own artificial elemental is fairly easy. You must assume
that the act has produced results, even if you do not immediately observe
them.
An artificial elemental is basically a thought form which has been
strengthened with emotion. Refer to the aura color chart and decide what
color to make the elemental. Then decide on a shape or outline.
A simple circle or cloud is a good place to start. With this in mind you can
use ritual to create your elemental. Creative visualization is good for this.
Visualize it glowing before you.
Formal ritual usually involves the invocation (ritually calling up) of a god or
goddess, spirit, or other entity. In this sense, magick is somewhat similar
to pagan religion and witchcraft.
However, we consider magick ritual a technique, not a religion. Sometimes
the invocation of an entity creates an artificial elemental.
Communicate with your elemental with telepathy by talking to it or with
creative visualization. Your artificial elemental is closely linked to you and
your subconscious attitudes. It will generally not do things you think it
cannot do. Results relate to effort and belief.
Do not use artificial elementals for any kind of aversive magick at this
point; they can be nasty little critters to get rid of. Should you have to
eliminate one of them which you created in error, you must re-absorb it
back into yourself through your will or in some cases you can 'exorcise' it.
Chapter III.How to Cast Spells
How to make spells work
There are some things that you should know in order to make your spells
work.
What we have been calling 'magick' is actually a continuous process. Since
your subconscious never rests, your environment is continually being
shifted into line with your model. This is true whether you study magick or
www.oldwitchcraft.com
14
not. For most people, these effects are usually very subtle, and they are
probably not aware of them.
Your mind follows your attention. Wherever you direct your attention,
there will go your thoughts too. By directing attention to a specific place or
purpose you *focus* mental energy upon it.
Balance is important in magick. Vary the entities invoked in order to keep
your personality in balance.
A ritual may produce side-effects, usually something similar to, though not
exactly the desired goal. If the true goal is delayed (as sometimes
happens) we may see the side effects first.
Like everything else, magick follows the 'law of results'. This means that
results require effort of some kind. And if you don't work hard enough at it
you don't get results. Difficult goals have greater resistance (magical
inertia) to overcome. If the ritual doesn't produce the desired results there
is a good chance that the reason for the failure is within us. Be certain
there is no contradiction between your model and your magical goals.
A peculiar quality of magick is time displacement. Results of a ritual are
not usually instantaneous. There is often a delay of 12 hours or more.
Difficult tasks or weakly performed ritual are more likely to be delayed.
Timing
Much has been made of the astrological influences of magick. In candle
magick the moon phase are the most important.
New Moon - If the goal you desire is one of a new beginning or a "start",
the best time to do this is during a New Moon (this is when the moon is
dark in the sky). While many do not like to work with a New Moon, I have
come to discover it's one of my favorite times to work. This is the time I
can to tie up loose ends, smudge the house, seal and protect. This is also
a great moon to work with when you need to retreat a little bit and revive
yourself. As it is the moon of "hidden knowledge" this would be an
opportune time to try to ferret out information that you feel you need to
know. Although the darkness in the sky is startling during a new moon, it
is often associated with dormancy. We know the moon is still there, even
www.oldwitchcraft.com
15
though her reflection may be hidden. I prefer to think often of some of the
darker sides of the Goddess or the darker Goddesses themselves.
Waxing Moon: While the moon is slowly filling in from a crescent on it's
way to full is the best time for work that "increases". I find this an
excellent time to do financial, job, attraction or anything else that needs
"increasing" in volume or intensity.
Full Moon: The full beauty of a full moon night is enough to make you
gasp. Ideally, this is the time for things to come to full fruition. I like to
think that the Goddess can hear you better on a full moon, but seriously,
whether culminating an "increase" to end on the full moon, or starting a
"decrease" to begin on the full moon to decline on the course of a waning
moon, the full moon has an advantage because it seems like our
invocations and focus are all in high gear.
Waning Moon: When the moon is slowly crescent bit by bit into the new
moon, this is an excellent time to work on banishing or getting things out
of your life that you need let go of and leave behind. Again, if it's taking
you longer to let go of things or get rid of situations in your life that have
outlived their usefulness.
Often, a situation might arise which must be dealt with immediately, and
cannot wait until the appropriate lunar phase. Listen to your instinct, and
act when you must.
Chapter IV. Astral Projection Revealed
The word 'astral' comes from the Latin astrum (star) indicating that we are
employing our light or star bodies in this type of travel. As humans we
have more than just the physical and astral bodies. In fact we have many
different bodies known as 'subtle bodies' - the etheric body shows health,
is what most aura readers see; the astral body to which astral
consciousness is projected.
For the beginning its best to mention that Astral Projection is also called
OBE (Out of Body Experience).
Many people try to induce OBE without success because they don't know
what to do. In this book Ill show you exactly what to do...so pay
attention.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
16
Your subconscious takes you out of your body every night. With practice
you can use this to your advantage: You can train your subconscious to
"wake you up" after it has left the body.
The best time to attempt an OBE is in the morning, after you have woken
up naturally. Give your body plenty of rest. The trick is to make your body
tired enough to stay in a relaxed state, but not too tired. The body should
be well rested but relaxed and the mind must be alert.
Here is a step-by-step technique. Follow the steps, start practicing and
youll finally have an OBE.
Relaxation
Relaxation is important because if you aren't relaxed, you'll have too much
consciousness focused in your body. Ideally, your physical body should be
completely relaxed in every respect during practice. I recommend
practicing relaxation every day until you can completely relax your physical
body in a few minutes.
Systematically tighten each muscle and make it tense until there is a slight
fatigue, then let go and feel the muscle relax. After you've relaxed every
muscle, start over and check every muscle again.
While you're relaxing, pretend as vividly as you can that you do not have
your left arm; as if it's been cut off and you can't feel it. When the
sensation of having no arm becomes quite real to you, that arm is very
relaxed. Next, pretend that your other arm does not exist. After that start
with your legs.
Next, relax your face completely. Here's one way to relax your face: With
your eyes closed, stare deeper and deeper into the blackness, while very
slowly tightening your eyebrows and rolling your eyes up slightly until your
eyebrow muscles become tired. Then completely relax your facial muscles
for about 15 seconds. Repeat the process again until your eyebrow
muscles are tired again, and relax again for another 15 seconds. Repeat
this process about six or seven times. Completely relax your whole body
again and then try to make your mind blank and relaxed too. The
vibrations may even come at this point, making the rest of the process
unnecessary! After you're completely relaxed, pay no more attention to
your body.
Focus Your Mind
www.oldwitchcraft.com
17
There are five key points to focusing your mind for OBE induction: state of
mind, realism, motion, receptivity and passivity.
When you are trying to leave your body the most important thing is your
state of mind. The best state of mind is one in which you are a quiet,
completely passive, single-minded observer. Realism is about of the
degree of focus. This world seems real to us because we are so focused
here. You should learn to focus outside your body to such a degree that it
all becomes real. Focus your mind into that single thread of consciousness.
Motion concerns the swaying motion you feel within your body. I start an
inner "swaying" sensation in my imagination that later becomes quite real.
Then I use the momentum of the swaying to propel myself out of my
body. Pretend that your body is gently swaying back and forth, or left to
right in a regular motion. Try to make this swaying feeling as vivid as
possible.
Receptivity. This receptive state of mind is important in calling or inducing
the vibrations. You should learn to make yourself receptive to whatever
comes during practice.
In this passive state, your mind does not wander. You are not emotional.
You are not analytical either. You are merely an observer. Visualization is
important in many OBE techniques and this passive state of mind makes it
easier to visualize images a long time without your mind "wandering."
In this passive state, you can initiate actions (like the visualizations)
without responding to them. You fall asleep by becoming interested in,
and responding to your own thoughts and visualizations. If you can initiate
that state and keep your consciousness out of that dream-trap, you can
retain your consciousness after it leaves your body. You just want to
become a passive observer.
I've talked before about needing to suspend a certain portion of your
consciousness to leave your body. Suspend the portion that has a vested
interest in what's happening.
Slow your thoughts and bring yourself into that passive and receptive state
of mind. Clear your mind of all thoughts. If you don't have a method try
the following: With your eyes closed, pretend that you're looking for
something that might appear directly in front of you. J ust quietly watch
your mental viewing screen. Stare into the blackness.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
18
Edge of Consciousness
The next step is "edge of consciousness," exploring the border between
waking and sleeping. Allow yourself to start falling asleep, but then "catch"
yourself and rouse yourself again and make sure you're fully conscious. Let
yourself start to fall asleep again, this time allowing yourself to get a little
closer toward sleep, then rouse yourself again. Do this several times until
your body is very relaxed and your mind is in that "passive" framework
that I discussed.
Visualize an object
Next, visualize a small object, such as a small cube, about six feet directly
in front of your face. Visualize this as clearly as you can. Don't continue
until you can see this object clearly in your mind's eye.
Sway the Object a Small Amount
Then begin to move the object back and forth. At first, visualize only a tiny
amount of movement, as if the object is merely slowly swaying toward you
and away from you.
Keep the object swaying constantly. Don't let it stop moving. Keeping the
object in motion will help to stabilize the image in your mind and give it
more realism.
Increase the Amount of Swaying
Slowly increase the distance the object sways. Keep swinging the image
back and forth toward you, each time bringing it a bit closer to you. As you
do this, the image may seem to become more real. Make sure your
visualization has a sense of perspective and depth. Each time the object
comes closer, it should look bigger. Each time the object pulls away, it
should look smaller. Remember, you must also keep that passive state of
mind during the entire exercise.
Sway Opposite To The Object
Try to feel as if you are swaying in the opposite direction as the object.
Imagine the object has a strong gravity that affects your swaying. As the
object swings closer to you, you are pulled toward it. As it swings away
from you, you sway back to your original position within your body.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
19
As the object gets closer and closer with each swing, feel its gravity pull
you more and more in its direction.
Grab The Object And Let It Pull You Out
After the image becomes very vivid, when it swings close to you, "grab"
onto the image with your mind. As the image swings away, your
consciousness will follow it and will be consciously pulled away from your
body.
At this point you will be out of your body. Then you can "let go" of that
state of mind, expand your consciousness and you will be very wide awake
and very alert. You are then free to explore the nonphysical world!
It is important to examine your consciousness during the experience to
make sure that you are not dreaming. During the experience, ask yourself,
"Is this really happening, or is it a dream?" After you return to your body
recall how conscious you were during the experience.
Learning to leave your body is something that takes a lot of time, practice
and patience. Don't expect results over night. This chapter has a lot of
information to absorb at once. You may spend several attempts just trying
to remember all the subtleties involved. The good news is, the first OBE is
the hardest. Once you've had an OBE, it's easier to induce more.
Chapter V. Aura Revealed
The human body is actually composed of seven distinct elements. The first
three (solid, liquid and gas) form the physical body. The fourth, is known
as the Etheric body and interpenetrates the physical body extends beyond
the confines of the physical body by about one inch. Next is the Astral
body which extends beyond the etheric body by several inches. Beyond
the astral body are the Mental and Spiritual bodies. Because of their
elasticity, and the speed at which they function, it is impossible to define
the physical limits of these last two elements.
Everything has an aura, both animate and inanimate material, but auras
are best detected in humans. Speculation is because of brain activity.
The aura is also referred to as odic force. This is seen in early Christian art
from the 5th to the 16th centuries. A glow was depicted around the heads
of people who were supposed to be very holy, which was referred to as
www.oldwitchcraft.com
20
the halo or gloria. Another example of this was the ring of flames around
the heads of the Moslem prophets. Another possible explanation for the
phenomena is Psycholuminescence, the control of photons and thus of
light. This might explain tales of halos, auras, mysterious lights, and
similar phenomena Also, headdresses of priest, kings and queen symbolize
auras. According to ancient Hindu medicine the aura can be revitalized by
prana, a vital force which exists throughout the universe.
The color I show on the chart have a meaning and create a response in
nature (useful if you plan to create an artificial elemental or do healing).
Surrounding yourself with a particular color will tend to produce the
specific psychological effect described in the chart. That quality of color is
useful in magick ritual.
Black malice
Dark gray depression
Pale gray fear
Brown materialism
Muddy gray selfishness
Dull rust selfishness
Red energy
Bright red anger and force
Dirty red passion and sensuality
Dull red selfish love
Rose unselfish love

Under the right conditions, it is possible to observe (by clairvoyance) a
colored light around other people. This is known as the 'aura'.
It is possible to improve your natural ability with clairvoyance through
practice.
If you dont know other techniques heres a simple one:
A good start might be to look around you, then close your eyes and try to
picture your surroundings. Let the vividness of color and form burn into
you, until everything takes on a veritable glow. Try to capture that glow
when you close your eyes now and picture your surroundings. It's just a
simple step to extend what you see with your eyes closed into what you
remember seeing in the next room, in the next building, the next city,
even the other side of the world. (Don't expect perfect results, especially
at first.)
Chapter VI. Dragon Magick
In all forms of magick, the cosmos and everything in it are deemed to be
made up of four elements, Air, Fire, Water, Earth. Most do not know of the
Fifth element, that of spirit or the Deities, which rules as a balance. In
Dragon Magick, specific dragons rule these elements and help us through
their powers when called.
Fire and Air are male (positive) energies while Water and Earth are female
(negative) energies. Male and female dragons may appear to represent
any element, however. In the world of Dragon Magick, each element has
assigned traditional rulers and boundaries to their realms. Do remember
that these Dragons possess form and force, and can influence our
personalities as well as magickal procedures. Each element and its dragon
has certain qualities, natures, moods, and magickal purposes; each has
positive and negative traits which much be dealt with.
Air
Air governs the eastern quarter of the circle and of the universe. Its
Dragon ruler is Sairys. Its color is pure yellow and is thought to be warm
and moist. Positive aspects are: sunrise, spring, incense, wand, bell,
clouds, breezes, breath, optimism, joy, intelligence, mental quickness,
renewing. Negative associations are: frivolity, gossip fickleness,
www.oldwitchcraft.com
22
inattention, bragging, forgetfulness, windstorms, tornadoes, hurricanes
and the like.
Fire
Rules the south quarter of the circle. Its Dragon ruler is Fafnir who
oversees the Dragons of Fire and the sunbeams. Its color is pure red and
is warm and dry. Fire is: noon, summer, the dagger and sword, candles,
incense burner, the sun, blood, laser surgery, enthusiasm, activity,
change, passion, courage, daring, will power & leadership. Negative
associations are: hate, jealousy, fear, anger, war, ego, conflicts, lightning,
volcanoes.
Water
Water governs the western quarter of the circle. Its Dragon ruler is
Naelyan who oversees the Dragons of the sea, springs, lakes, ponds and
rivers. Its color is pure blue; and it is cold and moist. Positive aspects are:
sunset, autumn, the water chalice, compassion, peacefulness, forgiveness,
love, intuition, calmness, peace of mind. Negative aspects include: floods,
rainstorms, whirlpools, laziness, indifference, instability, lack of emotional
control, insecurity.
Earth
Earth rules the northern quarter of the circle. Its Dragon ruler is Grael who
oversees the Dragons of mountains, land, minerals, gems, and
moonbeams. Its colors are clear and dark green and is cold and dry.
Positive aspects are: midnight, winter, the wine chalice, ritual salt, dragon
bowl, gem bowl, dragon mirror, gemstones, mountains, caves, soil,
respect, endurance, responsibility, stability, prosperity, thoroughness,
purpose in life. Negative aspects are: rigidity, unwilingness to change or
see another side of a problem, stubbornness, lack of conscience,
vacillation, earthquakes and slides.
Akasha
The white, black and "special" dragons rule the center of the circle and
balance all the other elements into a cool even grey tone of Magick.
Through invocation of these dragons of light and darkness, the Magick
User is able to mix a blend of elements that will bring forth the desired
www.oldwitchcraft.com
23
manifestation. Some would scoff at the idea of a Dragon of Light, mixing
energies with a Chaos Dragon or any other "darkly aligned" Dragon.
Ritual of Invoking
Feel the power of Air entering body with sword outstretched. When the
flow stops go to the South. Hold up the Dragon Pentacle again, draw an
Pentagram with the Sword, say:
From Fafnir Ruler Of Dragons Of The South, Comes Cleansing Fire From
Dragon Mouth
Note: Feel the power of Fire entering body and when it stops go to the
next direction. Repeat the process of Holding up the Dragon Pentacle and
drawing a invoking pentagram for each of the directions. Go to the West,
say:
From Naelyan Ruler Of Dragons Of The West,
Comes The Power Of Water Draw into the body the power of Water.
Go to the North and say:
From Grael Ruler Of Dragons Of The North, The Power Of Earth Does Now
Come Forth
Draw into oneself the power of Earth. When it stops return to the Altar, lay
aside the Sword and Dragon Pentacle. Add the appropriate herbal incense
to the incense burner according to the ritual you are performing. At this
point insert the appropriate chants and workings for the particular spell
working or meditation to be performed. If there is a problem that is
unsolvable by physical means or by magic then now is also the time to ask
the Dragons for advice on how to solve it.
The Dragons are able to give new insight into ways of solving it. Continue
to feel their power and direction as their directions are written down.
When finished with the spell working, tap staff three times and chant:
I Thank You, Dragons Old And Wise, Of Earth And Fire, Water, Skies, For
Sharing Wisdom Here With Me. As We Will, So Shall It Be Always approach
the Dragons as Equals not as a force to be ordered or conquered.
Set the Wine Chalice on the Pentacle. Circle it three times with the wand,
say:
www.oldwitchcraft.com
24
Cup Of Power, Cup Of Might,
Dragon Magick,
Be Here This Night
Drink the Wine (apple cider or grape juice may be substituted if unable to
drink wine), saving back some to be poured outside on the ground later as
an offering to the Dragons. If it is not possible to pour the offering outside
then leave it on the Altar for about an hour, after closing your ritual. Now
is the an excellent time to chant and use free-form dancing and invite the
Dragons to share in the raised energy and joy of being a Magician. Talk to
them about hopes and dreams, listen to see if they have suggestions or
words of encouragement. This is an opportunity for close friendships to be
forged.
Closing the Ritual
To close the ritual, take the sword and go to each of the directions draw a
banishing pentagram and say the appropriate words for that direction
Banishing Pentagram
To the East, say:
Go In Peace, Dragons Of The East, And Return Again In The Ritual Hour
To the South, say:
Go In Peace, Dragons Of The South, And Return Again In The Ritual Hour
To the West, say:
Go In Peace, Dragons Of The West, And Return Again In The Ritual Hour
To the North, say
Go In Peace, Dragons Of The North, And Return Again In The Ritual Hour
Return to the Altar. Raise both arms, say:
Farewell To You,
O Dragons Fair,
Fire, Water, Earth, and Air.
Together We Make Magick Well
By Power Deep and Dragon Spell.
In Peace Go Now.
Return Once More To Teach Me
Magick and Ancient Lore.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
25
Cut the circle with a backward sweep of the Sword across the boundary
line. Extinguish the candles. Clear the Altar of all tools except any offerings
to the Dragons if unable to pour outside. This ritual is the basis of any and
all rituals of Dragon Magick. Any specific spell workings need to be placed
within this framework at the appropriate times. This ritual is for exactly
what it states calling the Dragon or Dragons to project their presence with
such clarity that there is no question of knowing that they are here.
A greater reason for calling a Dragon into stronger presence is the
stronger the aura vibrations of such a creature within the circle the
stronger the ritual and power sent into your motivation for the ritual.
When you use the Dragon call and feel the presence of one or more
Dragons it is important that they are treated with respect. Take time to get
acquainted with them before asking their help.
Ritual of Calling
Notes: Perform during bright noon or the waxing Moon for increasing
magick, with the Full Moon being strongest; during evening hours or the
waning Moon for decreasing magick, with the New Moon being the
strongest. Use this ritual in conjunction with any spell working.
This ceremony is primarily used to summon the Dragon for a manifestation
whether it be the rare physical type or, more likely the sharpening of the
inner sight.
Supplies: Pentacle disk; Dragon pentacle; water chalice with a little fresh
water in it; dish of salt; wine chalice; black (left) and white (right) altar
candles; sword; wand; incense burner; appropriate incense; dragon's
blood and mugwort; dragon mirror; gong or bell; staff; paper and pen to
write down any messages.
Use the Basic Dragon Ritual up to the insertion point of necessary chants
for specific Spell workings. Hold the sword in power hand and staff in the
other while standing facing the altar and tap the staff three times on the
floor while holding the sword pointed at the Dragon Pentacle. Chant in
tones that vibrate body:
Come Draconis! By Your All-consuming Breath, I summon you.
(tap staff three times)
By Your Piercing Gaze, I Summon You
www.oldwitchcraft.com
26
(tap staff three times)
By Your Mighty Strength, I Summon You
(tap staff three times)
By Your Wisdom Ancient and Cunning, I Summon You
(tap staff three times)
By Your Magick Deep and Old, I Summon You
(tap staff three times)
Come, Draconis, To My Call!
Once done summoning the Dragons it will be possible to feel power being
sent from all directions by the half-seen Dragons. Listen for any messages
the dragons may have. The Dragons' presence can be felt by a sudden
temperature change, prickly feeling between the shoulder blades, unusual
currents of air, and other phenomena. If the Dragons are pleased with the
Magician they often sound a deep vibrating rumble, almost like a Giant
Cat's Purr.
This is the ritual I use for blessing and consecrating my ritual tools. It is
best performed on the Night of the Full moon or at Bright Moon although it
can be performed at any time that I wish my Dragon co-magicians to add
their power and blessing to any other tools I might acquire. I also use this
ritual to purify my tools.
For this ritual I find these tools most useful: Dragon Pentacle, Pentacle
Disk, Incense Burner, Wine Chalice, Water Chalice, Salt Dish, Sword and
Wand.
Note: If a item is missing remember it is possible to use regular household
items until other items are acquired. It is important that I believe that
these items are extensions of my Magick and I know that my Dragon
Companions understand and will help me acquire those items that befit
me. If I don't have wine for my ritual I substitute apple cider, grape juice,
fruit juice or even soda for this ritual or even any other rituals for that
matter.
Setting up my ritual area:
I place my altar in the center of my ritual area so that I can face East. I
light my two altar candles (Black on the left and White on the right to
balance the Energies). I play soft music in the background usually only
www.oldwitchcraft.com
27
instrumental, but other kinds depending on what draws me. The playing of
soft music in the background serves to purposes:
Sets Mood Masks Minor Noise
Now that my ritual area is set up I am ready to cast my circle, before
doing so I make sure I have everything that I need for the Ritual I am
about to perform because it is highly recommended that once my circle is
cast I do not leave it. I also realize and so do my Dragons that there are
times that I must leave the Cast Circle . Dragon Power is totally different
and unpredictable .If I am frivolous and half-hearted in my practice of
Dragon Magick it can even be dangerous.
Casting my circle:
I begin by going to the East and with the forefinger of my power hand I
draw my magickal circle on the ground by pointing to the ground and
picturing a great flame coming from it .With that flame I move clockwise
around my ritual area and end by overlapping in the East. While drawing
the circle I say:
By Dragon Power, This Circle Is Sealed
Ritual of Blessing:
Return to altar and place a small amount of Frankincense on the burning
charcoal in the incense burner, point forefinger to burner and say:
By Dragon Power, I Call You Purified
Lift up the burner and carry it around the edge of cast Circle clockwise
beginning and ending in the East. Return burner to the altar and slowly
pass the Pentacle Disk through the incense smoke and say:
Element of Spirit, By Dragon Power, I Call You Purified
Lay the Pentacle Disk upon altar and place Salt Dish upon it. With
forefinger of power hand circle the dish three times clockwise and say:
Out Of The Darkness Of Earth And Sea Comes The Blessed Salt, By
Dragon Power, I Call You Purified
www.oldwitchcraft.com
28
Sprinkle a few grains of Salt on all four corners of the altar this purifies it
and can be done at any time during ritual or as a cleansing if someone has
messed about with the altar. Once altar is purified pick up Dragon Pentacle
pass it slowly through the incense smoke and say:
Element Of Spirit By Dragon Power I Call You Purified
With Dragon Pentacle in Power Hand go to Eastern Quarter face East and
say:
Dragons Of Air Behold My Symbol and Ally
Move clockwise to the South, hold up the Dragon Pentacle, say:
Dragons Of Fire Behold Your Symbol And Ally
Go to the West, hold up the Dragon Pentacle, say:
Dragons Of Water Behold Your Symbol And Ally
Finish by going North, hold up the Dragon Pentacle, say:
Dragons of Earth Behold Your Symbol And Ally
Return to the altar, lay aside the Dragon Pentacle and take up the Sword.
Touch it briefly to the Pentacle Disk, pass through incense smoke, say:
Sword Of Fire, O name of Sword By Dragon Power, I Call You Purified
Hold Sword a few moments before Dragon Pentacle. Put Sword down pick
up the Dagger ,touch it to Pentacle Disk, pass through incense smoke,
say:
DaggerOf Fire, O name of Dagger By Dragon Power, I Call You Purified
Hold Dagger a few moments before Dragon Pentacle. For each tool I set it
briefly on the Pentacle Disk, pass it through the incense smoke, when
finished with the Call, hold tool before Dragon Pentacle before returning it
to altar.

Chapter VII. Spells
Here are the hearth-attack spells Ive been telling you about. Pick one
and try it.
Love Spells
Any spell you do must be followed through by actions if the spell is to be
successful. Whatever is needed to find love, go do it after you cast the
love spell. Also remember, if you are not open to love, no love spell can
work.
Love Spell #1:
"Faery dust with magickal wind send the Fates to do as I bid. Bring us
together with love and trust. Make it his/her will, this you must for if it is
so and we cannot be, then make us friends eternally. By the powers of the
universe and the spirits that guide me I send this out to the universe to do
as it will. So Mote It Be!"
Love Spell #2:
You will need: l pink candle, 1 white candle, Cinnamon and a moonstone
(optional).
Charge the candles with love. Hold them in your hands and pour loving
energies into them. Don't picture a certain person, just see yourself happy
and with somebody. Place the candles on the alter, the pink one to the left
and the white one to the right. Cast a circle and light the candles. If you
have a moonstone, place it on the alter between the two candles. Invite
the Goddess to join you, if you haven't already done so, for you will be
needing Her help. Next, sprinkle the cinnamon in a figure-eight pattern
around the two candles. As you sprinkle the cinnamon, speak these words
aloud:
"Oh, Great Goddess of the light,
Bring me happiness, true and bright!
May a new love so true come to me!
As I will it, so mote it be!"
www.oldwitchcraft.com
31
Thank the Goddess and close the circle. Either let the candles burn out, or
snuff them out.
Love Spell #3:
You will need a pink ribbon, a mirror, some honey, pen, paper, and a
candle. Burn some sweet smelling incense...heather or violet is perfect for
this. Pass the ribbon through the smoke three times saying:
"Ribbon be thou the bearer of love.
Ribbon be thou the bearer of happiness."
Now put a dab of honey on the ribbon and then on your tongue. As you
taste the honey, say:
"Honey, bring me the sweetness of love."
Repeat three times. Now hold up the mirror and look into it. See yourself
reflected there. Now say this three times:
"I am Goddess and Goddess is me.
She is beautiful. So Mote It Be."
Now dab a bit of honey on the candle and wrap the ribbon around it. Hold
it between your hands as you say (again three times) :
"From ribbon to candle
The magic shall go
From candle to astral
The flame makes it so."
Remove the ribbon and light the candle. Let the candle burn down. While
it is burning you will be writing what you want in a partner on a piece of
paper. Be specific...say "likes kittens but hates frogs" if that is what you
want. Don't specify any person. It will backfire badly. When you have
finished your list (and you can make mistakes and scratch out or start
over), fold the list three times. Tie it up with the pink ribbon. Snuff out the
candle if it is still burning. Put the list between your mattress and your box
springs. Each night for the next week you must look at yourself in the
mirror and repeat the mirror charm.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
32
"I am Goddess and Goddess is me. She is beautiful. So Mote It Be."
At the end of the week, you can stop the mirror charm or continue it. That
is your choice. Your spell will bring you love within 7 weeks.
Love Spell #4:
Needed: A red candle, Piece of red or pink paper, Red Ink pen or Doves,
Blood Ink.
Light the Red candle. On the paper write your full name. Under your name
write the person's name you are attracted to, their birthday then your
own. Draw a heart around the information then write the names and
birthdays again directly on top of the heart. Do this 3 times. Don't worry if
it looks like scribble. Fold the paper small and burn it in the flame of the
candle. As it burns say...
"Light the flame bright, the fire
Red is the color of desire."
Repeat 3 times. This must be done each night for 9 consecutive nights.
Love Spell #5 (love charm):
Put the following things in a drawstring bag: 1 Rose Quartz, 1 Pink
Feather, and 1/5 Cup of Clove.
Get one pink candle to burn while your chanting the spell. Now light the
candle and chant the following words.
"Love shall come to me by the powers of three, by my will so shall it be!"
At this time anoint the bag with holy water and say,
"The bag is sealed and the charm is made."
Love Spell #6:
A spell to draw two people closer together.
Take two pink petals from a Rose. Write on one the male lover, and on the
other petal the female lover (or if gay write the different names on the two
petals as above). Take an apple, and slice it through, so that you can
clearly see the five-pointed Pentagram of the seed capsules. Take the two
Rose petals and putting them together, place them on the bottom half of
www.oldwitchcraft.com
33
the apple. Place the top half of the apple on to the petals so that the apple
is whole again.
Now tie a red cord first one way across the apple binding the two halves
together saying:
"I bind this man to this woman until the Goddess deems otherwise."
Now tie a green cord ninety degrees from the red cord and say:
"I bind this woman to this man until the Goddess deems otherwise."
These words can be set in rhyme (which makes the spell stronger) and
helps you not to forget it.
Now place the apple in a dry cupboard, where it won't be disturbed such
as a wardrobe or something similar.
Each full Moon, bring the apple out (unobserved by anyone) and place in
the full rays of the Moon for at least an hour, then put the apple back
where you had put it first.
You may say something whilst it is in the Moon's Light to aid the spell of
attraction and binding of the two souls.
Love Spell #7:
You can bring your lover to you by asking the Fairy Queen, Diana to call
upon her daughter, Aradia for aid. Choose the first Thursday following a
New Moon and plan to stay awake all night to think only of your lover. At
dawn on Friday, call your beloved to you when the Moon is still visible and
the Sun is just rising, saying:
"Good and beautiful Diana, I have faithfully worshiped you; now help me!
Call your daughter Aradia and send her to fetch my love to me. Fill our
souls with the joy of lovemaking. Thank you great Fairy Queen and fair
Aradia."
Dogs are sacred to Diana, so if the tryst must be kept a secret, your lover
may come disguised as a dog, shape-shifting into human form only when
you are alone.
Love Spell #8:
Timing: Perform on a Friday during the waxing moon.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
34
Supplies: 6 rose petals, 1 teaspoon of lavender, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon,
rose quartz, 6-inch square of pink cloth, green ribbon (floss or yarn will
do), an inch of red ribbon, needle and thread, a penny.
Place the petals, rose quartz, lavender, cinnamon, red ribbon, and penny
in the center of the cloth square. Gather the edges of the fabric together
and hold the pouch close to your heart. Then say:
"Venus, Queen of love, divine Bring the love to me that's mine. Perfect, he
(she) and perfect, me Together we are meant to be. Venus, Queen of
love, so warm Bring my love to me, without harm. Let nothing keep us
now apart, Bring perfect love to fill my heart."
Still holding the pouch against your heart, fill it with loving energy. Secure
the pouch with the green ribbon to seal the spell. Carry it on your person
and sleep with it under your pillow. When the lover comes to you, bury the
pouch under a tree.
Love Spell #9:
To attract love you need one pink candle, one teaspoon of ground
almonds (happiness), one teaspoon of rose water (to represent love).
On a night leading up the full moon, light the candle and relax. Sprinkle
the almonds and rose water around the base of the candle and say the
following:
"Candle pink, warn with fire, bring to me the love I desire.
With these almonds around the flame, Cupid's arrow will take aim.
With this scent of fragrant rose, I bring this love spell to a close."
Gaze into the flame for a moment. You may see an image of your new
love. Let the candle burn out. Wait at least one lunar month before
repeating.
Love Spell #10:
Light an orange candle, then take a small seashell and pass it three times
through the flame. As you do this, say:
"By the power of three,
So make it be."
www.oldwitchcraft.com
35
...each time you go through the flame. Take a handful of cinnamon and
using a spoon and bowl, mix it with dried and crushed red rose petals.
Sprinkle the shell with some of the mixture and imagine yourself attracting
many different people. Take the rest of the mixture and toss it into the
wind to carry your request to the God and Goddess. Then carry the shell
with you in a pocket or purse at all times.
Love Spell #11:
Light an orange candle, then take a small seashell and pass it three times
through the flame. As you do this, say:
"By the power of three,
So make it be."
...each time you go through the flame. Take a handful of cinnamon and
using a spoon and bowl, mix it with dried and crushed red rose petals.
Sprinkle the shell with some of the mixture and imagine yourself attracting
many different people. Take the rest of the mixture and toss it into the
wind to carry your request to the God and Goddess. Then carry the shell
with you in a pocket or purse at all times.
Love Spell #12:
You will need: A mirror, 1 Pink candle (friendship, romance), 1 Red Candle
(passion, lust).
In a place that is fire-safe & comfortable for sitting a while, place the
mirror with a candle on each side. Light the candles...turn down, or off,
any artificial light. Now, sit down in front of the mirror, gaze at your
reflection. Sit comfortably, and relaxed. Notice all your good
qualities...focus on them...then say aloud how wonderful this feature(eyes,
for ex.) are. Notice their shape, and color, speak of them aloud...do this
with all your best features. Smile at yourself :)
Tell yourself, how wonderful you are...state all the positive aspects of your
personality, (your humor, your willingness to help others, etc) name all the
beautiful traits, that make you special...speak of them aloud, and with
confidence. Now comes the really hard part...hopefully, with practice, and
by doing the above things, this will be easier to do! Say these words or
whatever suits you:
www.oldwitchcraft.com
36
"I am beautiful (or handsome) on the outside
I am wonderful within
I am special unto myself,
So let the love come in!
Negative thoughts, they vanish
I now toss them out
Negative feelings, be banished,
to let my love shine out!"
Repeat this, at least 5 times per sitting. And do at least, once a day - you
may re use the candles, but please do not blow them out! (Some say that
it is an insult, to the air & fire elements) Use a snuffer or wet your fingers,
and pinch them out. As you get more used to doing this spell, you may
repeat these words, or any words that you chose (spells are great, when
made personal...
Also - to make an attraction charm to wear, simply find a chain with a
pendant that suits you, and drape over the mirror while doing your
spell...or wear it, so it is in sight, as you do your spell. The charm gains
strength, as you continue to work the spell. This spell works! In time you
will see a noticeable difference in the number of people who approach
you.
Love Spell #13:
Take three cords or strings of various, pleasing colors that make you think
of love & passion - such as pink, red and purple - and braid them tightly
together while thinking of your hearts desire.
Firmly tie a knot in the middle of the braid while thinking of your need for
love. Next, tie another knot, and another, until you have tied seven knots.
Wear or carry the cord with you until you find your love.
After that, keep the cord in a safe place, or give to one of the elements
burn and scatter the ashes in the ocean or in a stream.
Love Spell #14:
This spell is to bring back an ex-lover:
You will need: 2 white candles, a photo of your lover or friend, a photo of
yourself smiling, a chamomile teabag, a piece of blue material.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
37
To bring back an ex-lover or end an argument between friends.
Perform this spell at 8 o'clock in the evening.
At exactly 8 o'clock light the candles and take a few deep relaxing breaths.
Visualize a peaceful scene. Now hold in your hand the picture of your ex
lover or friend and repeat this chant:
"With the light of the flame I'll light your desire,
When I speak your name
You'll feel the glow from my fire.
The spell has been cast--So be it!"
Say his or her name slowly 3 times and then put your picture face down
on top of his or her picture so that the 2 images are together. Wrap up the
pictures, along with the chamomile tea bag in the blue cloth. Put the
package in a safe place. To make sure your ex lover or friend gets the
message, light the candles and repeat his or her name 3 times each
evening at 8 o'clock.
Love Spell #15:
There are any number of ways to do this spell. You can drip water
(preferably Full Moon Water) on photos of you and your beloved. You can
set a candle in a bowl of water and allow it to burn until the water
extinguishes it. You also may want to use Come To Me oil and/or incense
for the spell. However you do it, visualize your beloved arriving from afar
to find your love!
"Sacred water flow from me
To draw him ever near
As endless rivers run to sea
His path to me is clear.
A love that's true once here he'll find
And know his journey's end.
And in his heart and soul and mind
He'll know our lives should blend."

On a night during the Waxing Moon, and preferably when the moon is in
the phase of Gemini (for communication) gather the above ingredients and
go to a place where you can be alone for at least 30 minutes.
Light the candles and hold the pictures within your hands and chant this
charm:
"Image of me,
Image of you,
Coming together,
www.oldwitchcraft.com
39
Forming two"
As you say this, cut the images so the two of you are not part of the
original photos any longer. The pictures are then sewn together with the
needle and thread.
The new photo is then placed on your altar, and atop should be placed a
lodestone or magnet to draw the two of you together.
On the Full Moon of that month, light a yellow candle and place the charm
underneath the candle to work your magick. Say this to release the spell:
"A picture of you, a picture of me, A picture of us, together shall be.
Come, if you will, to be with me, This is my will, so mote it be."
Now that the magickal part is done, you must work the mundane part.
Write or call and ask to meet them. If they are not receptive to your offer,
try again another time. This spell is not meant to force the person to do
anything they aren't willing to do so just let them know that your offer is
always open.
Love Spell #19:
Go outside or to a window where you can see the Moon clearly in the sky.
Close your eyes and visualize the person you desire. Say this:
"If you love me, let me know.
At this plea, may your love show."
Next time you see the person, take note of any new behavior they may
exhibit. If the person seems to talk or look at you more often than usual,
see this as a sign that he feels love for you. However, be careful with this
spell. You must be sure he has feelings for you in the first place for the
spell to succeed.
Love Spell #20:
Note: This spell designed to be worked on someone you desire who also
desires you but is shy in expressing his/her feelings.
Timing: Perform this spell on a Friday night with a waxing moon Supplies:
3 hairs from the head of the person, a candle in the shape of phallus (for a
www.oldwitchcraft.com
40
man) or a womb (for a woman), the candle can be red for sex and
passion, or green for love and affection, olive oil, plain piece of paper.
Directions:
If you make your own candle, wait until Friday to prepare the wax. Then
add the three hairs to the soft wax as you mold the candle with your
hands. However, if you bought the candle already made just soften the
wax a little with a lighter and then embedded the hairs in it.
On a Friday night with a waxing moon, take the candle into your hands
and think hard on the relationship you desired to have with your loved
one. See yourself with this person in the present, doing all you desire to
do.
Now anoint the candle with olive oil, using sensuous, caressing motion, as
you were attending your lover. Never stop imagining how it is when you
are together.
Finally, light the candle and pray that your lover will come to you. Write
your lover's name three times on a plain piece of paper, and burn it in the
flaming wick. While the paper burns, chant the name of your lover out
loud three times. Blow out the candle. Now be patient and wait for your
lover to respond.
Love Spell #21(Getting Rid of an Unwanted Love):
We all have a person who loves us when we can't return the affection. The
type of person who won't leave us alone, this spell will get rid of that
person.
For this you will need a few things. First you will need a red candle, a
black candle, and a white candle. The red candle represents an end, the
black candle represents new beginning and renewal, and the white candle
symbolizes purity. Next, you will need a wooden stick, a piece of chalk, a
metal bowl, and a ribbon. Set up the candles in a triangle, it doesn't
matter which is at the top. Place the metal bowl in the middle, place the
ribbon in the bowl and the stick on top if it.
When everything is set up, light the candles in this order: white, red,
black.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
41
As you do say this:
"This is pure and true I cannot love (name)
An end to this affection
An end to this love
Move on from me
Find a love of your own."
When the candles are lit, hold the stick over them one at a time repeating
what you said as you lit them. Next, take the piece of chalk and draw a
circle around the middle of it. Name one side of the stick after yourself and
the other after the person you wish to repel. Break the stick in two in the
middle where you drew the circle. Next, place the stick back in the bowl
and remove the ribbon as you do.
Hold the ribbon in your hand and hold it over each of the candles
repeating what you said before. Next, Hold the ribbon between your hands
pulling it taunt. Hold the center over the flame of the red candle. When
the ribbon breaks, hold one end of each ribbon over the other two
candles, when they catch fire, place the pieces in the bowl with the stick.
Watch the pieces burn and think of a separation between you and the
person your named.
When the fire goes out, take the ashes and draw a heart on each of the
three candles. Take what is left of the stick and draw a line down the
middle of each of the hearts. This should separate you from the person
who love you without return. If it doesn't, repeat the process on a full
moon to increase the power of the spell.
Love Spell #22:
Items Needed: A Small Pot, Basil Seeds, Soil from your loved-ones track.
Sow the seeds in a small pot thinking loving thoughts about your love. Put
the pot in a warm place and water them frequently. Keep them in a warm
safe place. Eventually the person will start to show feelings for you and
the spell has worked!
Do not let the plants die, for with them, so will the love if it is not yet
firmly rooted.
Love Spell #23:
www.oldwitchcraft.com
42
Timing: Moon( Waxing), Day( Mondays and Fridays).
Color, Candles: Pink for Friendship, gold for happiness, light blue for
understanding, red for true love.
Incense: Any love one.
Start by aligning the candles up left to right, Pink, Gold, Light Blue, Red.
Place the incense so the smoke from the incense is flowing though the
candles.
Before you light each candle look at the Moon to acknowledge the
Goddess.
Concentrate your emotions on the Chant:
"May it be real,
as I think it's true love I feel.
with this blow,
let my feelings flow.
If it reaches the red,
it's him I shall Wed."
Say the chant and, starting from the pink end, blow out each candle. With
a bit of help the relationship will last.
Love Spell #24:
This spell is to "cure" a broken heart. After a break-up, on a full moon, go
outside underneath the radiant light. Light some black, red, and blue
candles and some incense of your choice. Say:
"As you leave my life,
I leave behind my pain.
As you burn to dust,
So does all my hurt.
As I leave you in my past,
I leave with you my sorrow."
www.oldwitchcraft.com
43
Let the candles burn down completely. Take the remains off your property
and bury them. Turn around and don't look back! Now follow with a
renewal or healing ritual.
Love Spell #25:
Materials: Rose incense, pink candle, Three strings (colors depending on
the type of person you are hoping for, Like I used red for love and
passion, green for luck, and orange for attraction, but really just use
whatever colors feel right to you)
After casting your circle, light the candle and the incense and envision the
love you would like to attract. Picture them physically, and say in your
mind our out loud certain personality traits.
If you truly want to envision a specific person, BE SURE to say something
along the lines of "if we truly are meant to be" during the next part of the
spell, other wise you are royally breaking the rules. Take the three strings
and braid them together. As you do this, keep picturing your love, and
perhaps chant something as well. I find that the chant is best when
personalized, otherwise it is less from the heart.
Also, make sure to braid the strings as nicely as possible, don't be sloppy.
When you are finished, you will have a braided cord. Tie nine knots in it. If
you already tied one to start the braid, only tie eight, so you end up with
only nine knots total. Tie the cord around your ankle.
By the time the cord falls off, you should meet your true love.
Love Spell #26:
Anoint a red candle with a Love-drawing oil & burn a Love-drawing
incense. Recite this incantation 3 times each night as the candle burns for
about 10-15 minutes:
"I am possessed by burning love for this man/woman
Let this man/woman yearn for me, desire me,
Let his/her desire burn for me!
Let this love come forth from the spirit & enter him/her
Let him/her desire me as nothing has been desired before!
I love him/her, I want him/her
He/she must feel this same desire for me!
www.oldwitchcraft.com
44
O spirit of the air,
Let him/her burn with love for me."
Do this for 5 nights in a row. Bury the remains in your front yard.
Love Spell #27:
Materials required: One bottle of red wine, Tablespoon of rosemary herb,
Two cinnamon sticks, One vanilla pod, Photo.
This spell is to be used to spice up an already existing happy and loving
relationship. It should be worked at the waxing to full Moon.
For those who are unable to drink alcohol, substitute it with Grape J uice.
Gather the Vanilla Pod, cinnamon, and rosemary herb together. Tip some
of the wine into a glass, this is to allow room in the bottle for the herbs.
Hold up the picture of you and your partner, think back to when the photo
was taken. Relive and visualize the happy feelings you felt at that time,
and realize how your love for each other has matured and like the red
wine.
Place the herbs into the bottle and repeat the followings words:
"Entwined as one we shall be,
Pure love for ever,
J ust you and me.
From this chalice we drink this wine,
Imbued with passion,
Till the end of time."
When your partner comes home drink the wine together. Don't forget to
use your best glasses.
Love Spell #28:
For those who have been disappointed in love. If yours is a story of always
attracting the wrong person and your heart has been broken once too
often, this spell is for you. It will heal the wounds of past mistakes and
prepare the ground for a new beginning in your love life.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
45
You will need: Pansy seeds, a small terracotta pot or window box, earth
and a small trowel, paper with your name written on it, some of your nail
filings.
The pansy (or heart's ease) has long been the favorite of those whose
hearts need healing. Eros is said to have released his arrow, and where it
fell, the pretty-faced flower sprang up in bright colors. Grow yours to put
sorrow behind you and prepare for a happier future.
This spell is best performed on St. Valentine's Day, May Day, Midsummer,
or Lammas.
Plant your seeds lovingly on one of the days mentioned, first putting the
piece of paper with your name on it into the earth. Water the seeds and
scatter your nail filings on top. Tend your plant with car, and when the
first flower blooms, pick it on a waning moon and press it on a favorite
book of poetry. Keep it with you always to attract love.
Chose a mainly yellow flower if you want an intellectual match, rich purple
if you seek passion, or soft blue if you long for a love that is simple, yet
true.
Love Spell #29:
It should be performed during the full moon.
You will need: a pink candle, Love oil (if you don't have love oil, Lavender
oil will work just as well), Paper (to write spell on), Matches, Burning pot,
a picture of the one you are doing the spell for.
Take the pink candle and starting at the middle, rub the love oil to the top.
Then again from the middle rub the love oil to the bottom. Place the
candle into a holder and light it while saying the Love request. Speak the
request again while you burn the paper the spell is written on. Say it once
more while you burn the picture. If you choose not to burn a picture say
the spell a third time anyway. Allow the candle to burn down and out of
it's own accord.
The ashes are to be thrown outside to the wind to aid in carrying your
message.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
46
Love Request:
"North South East West,
Lady Venus I request,
Send my perfect love to me,
As is my will, so mote it be."
Love Spell #30(Reverse Love Spell):
Get a cup full of rose petals, and a half a cup of mandrake.
Boil the roses, take out the water and put it in a vase or glass that you can
cork up. Dry the rose petals (in a Microwave is fine) and on a night where
the moon wanes very close to new... Light a large fire, cast a circle (or
whatever cleansing you do), and when read pour the mandrake and dried
rose over a fire.
Speak into the night:
"I call to the storms I call to the breeze
To scourge the ground and bend the trees
I summon Morgana and Aine to take my love, away from me.
May he find love, true and pure, but with him, no longer shall I endure
For my own good if harming none
Ash'te Savant the spell is done!"
Leave an offering of some of the water for the Sidhe.
Mix ash from the fire in the rest of the water, cork and bury. Binding is a
good idea. If you ever want him to return, break the spell and call him.
Love Spell #31:
On the first night of the new moon (or anytime during the waxing moon)
take a warm bath in this special love potion:
3 drops rose oil 3 drops lavender oil 3 drops patchouli Petals of one white,
one red, and one pink rose
Place candles around the bath: 1 red, 1 white, 1 pink. Play music that
soothes you turn out the lights except of the candles and soak in the
bath...picture wounds mending, hurts fading...then feel the love you
have...concentrate on letting that warm feeling fill you.
Do this until you feel like getting out of the bath :)
www.oldwitchcraft.com
47
Don't use this bath for anything other than a healing soak.
If you can get your lover to join you in the bath...all the merrier ;) but if
not, just concentrate on the healing feelings for you both. Next time you
kiss this person think of all the warm thoughts you had in your bath...if
possible play the song and have the 3 candles lit and wear the 3 oils as a
scent on your skin.
Love Spell #32 (Spell For Attraction):
Needed: green paper, vandal root, graveyard dirt
Write your name and the intended's name on the paper, put the vandal
root and graveyard dirt in the centre of the paper, wrap it up and leave it
under your bed.
Another root spell similar to this one is to anoint a High J ohn root with oil
of the same. Take a piece of parchment paper inscribed with the name of
the one you are trying to control. The paper is first soaked in controlling oil
& dried then wrapped around the root and tied up with a purple ribbon
and carried on ones person.
Love Spell #33(Soul Mate Love Spell):
This ritual is intended to draw a partner who is best suited to you at this
time in your life, or one who is "meant" for you. It is supposedly "fail-
safe", but remember, you must take responsibility for any results and
consequences.
You will need: a clear mind and focused goal, special paper such as hemp,
cotton, real parchment, whatever you deem special, a ritual writing
instrument such as quill, fountain pen, favorite ball-point, etc. in
whatever color ink desired, moon incense, charcoal or a small ritual fire
Timing: any time, preferably after dark during the waxing moon. The
timing is more flexible with this working for many reasons; the nature of
the work, and the full moon energy contained in the moon incense which
is an incense of Increase or drawing.
Reinforce your personal circle/aura and prepare for workings in your usual
manner. Using the ritual pen and special paper, write words of power that
will call the most perfect partner to you at this time. Do not include
www.oldwitchcraft.com
48
specific names, and avoid thinking of a specific person. If you can't find
quite the right words, use the following:
"If there be a perfect match,
this work tonight will surely catch.
the perfect one who is meant to be,
shall find His/Her way home to me.
In perfect love and perfect trust,
I send this out, but not from lust,
This spell will guide us to unite,
free will remains with us tonight."
When you are finished, read over what you wrote and confirm that
everything you want to say is included. When you are certain it is as you
wish, spend some time meditating on your goal while you light your ritual
fire or the charcoal. When you get "that feeling" (the one when you know
everything is right, your will is focused, you know it is certain, you know
the feeling...) prepare to begin the physical aspect of the ritual. When the
fire has become coals, or the charcoal is glowing happily, read aloud your
writing, repeating it three times. As you read, or as you come to the end
of each repetition, sprinkle a small handful (about a Tablespoon) of the
incense on the fire. You will want to be practiced at this for the best effect
as well as safety, so make up a full recipe of it and accustom yourself to its
nature prior to the rite.
Fold the paper and keep it near you for three days. Keep it under your
pillow, mattress, or pinned to your night clothes (if you aren't sky/star
clad) while you sleep. After three days, light another ritual fire, repeat the
C.O.P., reading and incense procedure and this time, burn the paper when
you are done.
OR you can keep the paper in a special spell box if you use this method.
Many Witches have special containers to keep finished workings in. These
are usually decorative and personalized with engravings or painting on
them that echo their contents.
For example, a heart shaped heartwood box with runes and magickal
symbols of love on it for this spell. Usually only similar spells are kept
together, or each spell is kept in its own box.
Love Spell #34(Spell to Attract Friends and Lovers):

Tools: 3 Red floating candles, Rose or other love incense, The odd red
candle

middle day of the full moon and if at all possible it should be done during
the planetary hour of Venus.
Start by running yourself a nice warm bath as it is running light the red
non-floating candles and place them around the room. Light the incense
turn the lights out and get in the bath once ready. Now light the candles
and let them float around the bath.
If you are able cast a circle around the bath, this helps to keep the energy
in but it will work with out it.
As the candles float around the bath watch the flames mingle together in a
red haze. Feel the flames energy wash through the water and feel it enter
your body.
Visualize your perfect partner/loads of friends - see yourself being really
happy. As the fire's power passes into you chant:
"Flame of love burn so bright
Grant my spell I cast tonight."
Take the candles out of the water, relax in the bath and when you are
ready get out and let yourself dry naturally.
Repeat two more times using the same floating candles.
And on the third night bury the floating candles in the garden and say:
"In the ground this love I sow
Allow this wondrous love to grow."

Materials: 1 pink candle, 1 bottle of 100% Virgin Olive oil, something to
light the candle.
Process: Take the candle and place it on a table or your altar. Now take
the olive oil and rub on to the candle starting in the middle and going up,
then starting in the middle going down. While purifying the candle with the
oil, you want to recharge the candle with love and desire, so visualize love
and channel all your emotion into the candle. After the oil is finished, take
a knife and carve what it is you want into the candle.
After finished writing in the candle, simply light it and concentrate on love
and throw as much emotion (love) into the flame of the candle as possible,
you may even want to add words if you wish. Sit and do this until the
candle has burnt out. Make sure you are comfortable and won't be
bothered. The more you feel sexy, the more this spell will work for you!
Once the candle has burned out, the spell is finished.

glitter then raise the stick towards your chosen star and say:
"With these magic words
I begin my spell.
Hear me now,
O mystic star,
Hear me well
Let your magic light
Send me the love of my life.
The spell has been cast
So be it."
Your glitter is now magically energized, and you should sprinkle some near
your front door. You can even take some glitter out with you and sprinkle
it here and there.
Your perfect mate should be brought to you.

An old Gypsy spell stressing, like many Gypsy spells, the importance of
hair. If you intend to cast it, you must do so in the wane of the moon, in
the last quarter, and in secret.

intermingled, and tie with three lovers' knots (full bows) using the red
cotton.
Place the hair in a secret place and do not allow anyone to untie the
cotton or lose the hair or the spell will be broken!
Love Spell #39(To Start a Hot Love Affair):
This is an extremely potent spell, the object is to make a person burn with
desire for you. After you have "kindled" the flame... it's up to you to keep
it that way!
You will need: 1 blue candle eight inches long, 7 pieces of paper each 3
inches x 1 inch, 1 pen, 1 kitchen knife
Write the full name of the person on each piece of paper. Fold each one
lengthwise twice only, so you now have 7 pieces of paper 3 inches long x
1/4 inch wide. Cut seven equally spaced notches in the blue candle. Take
one of your folded pieces of paper and light one end with a match. Light
the candle with this flame and allow the paper to burn up totally in the
candles flame. While you are burning the paper you must repeat, over and
over, the words....

Protection Spells
Here are the spells that keep you, your home and family protected from
evil and unfortunate situations.
Protection Spell #1:
Make a sachet to wear around your neck. The color should be blue or
purple but make it a color you can live with.
On the night of a full moon, blend these herbs together: amber, juniper,
dill, vervain, st. john's wort, lavendar by crushing them together with a
mortar and pestle.
Leaving them in the vessel, hold them up to catch the light of the full
moon and say:
"Moon of night in fullness shine bless this rite protection mine"
Then without touching it fill your pouch and wear it whenever you feel
threatened. It also works if you keep it in your pocket.
Protection Spell #2:
This spell is most effective when done a day after the full moon. Take a
piece of silk, some silk thread (if available) in green or pink, some herbs of
the following kind (but you don't need all): J uniper, Mugwort, Rosemary,
Basil, Horehound, Trefoil, St. J ohn's Wort, Vervain, Mandrake and one
acorn or a twig of oak or a twig or rowan.
I always feel it is best if the herbs are worked by hand but because of the
harmful properties of some of the oils of these plants, if not dried I
recommend a mortal and pestle only. Grind the herbs into a rough
mixture, they do not need to be too fine.
Prepare you room or space for this protective working. If this is to be
personal, the amount of herbs need only be small but preparation more
extensive. If this is to protect a house, boat, car, etc. then more herbs are
needed and a further ritual but quick and benign looking ritual needs to be
performed.
Directions:
www.oldwitchcraft.com
54
Prepare your altar. Draw a bath to the temperature you prefer. In this
bath, use some purification, exorcism or dragon's blood bath salts.
While you take this bath, feel the protection water gives begin to seep into
yourself. Then feel the protection earth gives through the salts seep into
your very bones. When finished the bath, dry yourself and anoint yourself
with some oil containing rosemary, geranium, or frankincense.
Light a charcoal briquette and burn as incense some frankincense, myrrh,
or dragon's blood. While the smoke curls, create the sachet. Place the
herbs in the cloth and sew the sides together as best as you can to
prevent the substance leaking.
Now while you sew it together, chant out loud or silently
"I bind this charm to protect me well".
Once done, face each direction and say
"Element of the empower my charm
To protect me against all harm."
Then when you return to the east say
"I have created this charm to protect me against all harm.
It's power has been created and now let it's work be done."
Now keep this charm on you at all times!
Protection Spell #3:
Take a mason jar and put pins, needles, razor blades, cactus spines, rose
thorns, broken glass, etc. in it. Prick your finger and let at least 3 drops of
your blood into jar (this binds the jar to you). While making the bottle
concentrate your thoughts on what you are doing.
Urinate in the bottle and seal it well. Dig a hole and put it in it and say:
'Lord of Life, Lady of Light - J oin me here for this rite I have made this
bottle for my protection(according to ancient ways and tradition.)
Direct all harm sent my way - To this grave I make today.
Return it three fold to the send - And let my life ever be better
Open my ears to hear and my eyes to see

55
As I will, So Mote It Be!'
Bury the bottle but don't break it...you can write down your prayer or
incantation and wrap it around the bottle before burial.
Protection Spell #4(house protection):
You need: Protection Incense (herbs or oils work fine also), Yellow 8"
Taper Candle
It is best to find a work area that you can leave untouched for three days.
If you must put away your tools, try to at least keep your spell candle out
in the open.
Prepare your work area by setting up the tools you will need While setting
up your area, concentrate on the purpose of your work.
J ust prior to your work, bathe in purification herbs, or with your favorite
bath salts. While you are bathing, concentrate again on the purpose of
your spell. Do not let negative thoughts enter your mind.
After bathing, go to your work area. Cast a circle. Light some incense.
Envision a large, yellow ball of light surrounding you, your work area, and
your home. Hold the candle between the palms of your hands and direct
all of your positive energy into the candle.
Place the candle in its candle holder. Prior to lighting the candle, say
(either aloud, or to yourself):
This candle represents protection over my home.
Light the candle and say (either aloud or to yourself):
As the light of this flame grows, I can feel the light and positive energy
around me. As this candle burns, my house is blessed with light and love.
Negative energy is being banished. Negative thoughts will be left outside
the doors and windows-never to be a part of my home
Sit back and watch the candle burn. Keep visualizing the yellow ball of
light and protection around your home. Envision your gods blessing each
corner of the outside and inside of your home. See yourself blessing every
corner, inside and out, of your home. Feel the peace and love.
www.oldwitchcraft.com

When the candle had burned 1/3 of the way, say: As the flame of the
candle is extinguished--evil and negativity around me is extinguished and
blow out the candle. Repeat this for two more nights.
On the last night, after the candle has burned away and the leftover wax
has cooled, bury the wax in the earth as close to your front door as
possible.
Protection Spell #5(breaking a spell):
Get yourself an old cooking pot, place a black candle in the center, fill the
pot with water until it is 2" below the wick of the candle. Light the candle
and say
"If truly hexed or cursed I am, let it break with quench of flame".
Then stare into the flame and see all the negative energy being drawn into
it. When the candle burns down to the water level, and the flame sputters
out, say, "So mote it!".
Dig a hole and empty the water into it. Now bury the candle. It is done.
Protection Spell #6(protection ball):
Take an old Christmas Tree ornament and remove the metal hanger top.
Most of these ornaments are mass produced with cheap paint on the
outside that soaks off in warm water, overnight( they are usually a silver
color underneath) or use a silver colored ball. Next, rinse out the ball with
a salt water solution. Now, get yourself a spool of red thread and some
patchouli oil. Cut the thread in 3" strands.
Carefully insert the strands through the opening of the ball. Continue
inserting strands until the ball is nearly full. Put in 3 or 4 drops of the
patchouli oil and replace the metal hanger cap.
Now hang the ball in your room, preferably as close to the door as
possible. As you hang the ball, say:
"Symbol of the Moon, Symbol of the Lady Divine, Reject all negativity,
Defend this room, me and mine."

Protection Spell #7(Releasing Negative Energy Spell):
Time: During the seven days of the Full of the Moon.
When and Where: Outside, Barefoot, facing East.
Clothing white cotton.
Bathe and meditate while using this breathing method. Inhale through the
nose and exhale through the mouth. When through, visualize the negative
energy flowing out through the drain.
Go outside and face East. Place the left arm straight down to the side.
Palm flat against the body. Right arm straight out and palm side up. Bring
up until the Full Moon rests on your palm as a crystal ball would rest.
Meditate again using the Ohm meditation as you would a musical scale.
When you are still and feeling the energy. Repeat the following:
O Great Mother Goddess and Father God
You who are all yet nothing.
Beyond explanation and understanding.
I ask thee to grant my request this night.
I ask that you take the negativity that was sent to me
And send it swirling into the Universe.
Let it be sent back to the sender three fold
And as a lesson of what is right and wrong.
Let the residual energy be sent to me three fold
With loving, caring healing positive energy.
I ask that you grant this request.
I also thank Thee for your kindness and caring attention.
I ask this in the power of three
So Mote it Be!
Protection Spell #8:
"Elements of the Sun,
Elements of the Day,
Come this way,
Powers of night and day,
I summon thee,
I call upon thee,
to Protect me,
So Shall it Be."

Protection Spell #9(Spell to Break the Powers of a Spell):
If you believe that a spell has been cast against you, place a large black
candle in the cauldron (or a large black bowl). The candles must be tall
enough to extend a few inches above the cauldron's rim. Affix the candle
to the bottom of the cauldron with warmed beeswax or the drippings of
another black candle so that it will not tip over.
Fill the cauldron to the rim with fresh water, without wetting the candle's
wick. An inch or two should remain above the water. Deeply breathe,
meditate, clear your mind and light the candle. Visualize the suspected
spell's power as residing within the candle's flame.
Sit in quiet contemplation of the candle and visualize the power flowing
and growing within the candle's flame. (Yes, the power against you) As
the candle burns down, it's flame will eventually sputter and go out as it
contacts the water. As soon as the flame has been extinguished by the
water, the spell will be dispersed.
Break your visualization of the spell's power; see it explode into dust,
becoming impotent. Pour the water into a hole in the ground, a lake or
stream. Bury the candle.
Protection Spell #10(dispell negative energy)
Take a small clear crystal, an acorn, some rosemary and mandrake and a
bit of green silk or cotton. It doesn't need to be a big piece. Cast your
circle and creating a pouch from the herbs, bless them with each element
saying:
"While this dewlls within, there will be protection without.
Cleanse and charge this charm, element of against all who wish me ill!"
Now hang this somewhere not too obviously, like hiding it in a corner or
over a window. This will protect you until next Samhain when you should
burn it in the sacred fire, crystal and all. If it is not too tainted, the fire will
just cleanse the crystal and you'll be able to retrieve it from the ashes but
I always recommend just getting a new one.

Health Spells
Here are the health spells. Use them frequently to improve your health
constantly. Pick one and use it.
Health Spell #1(spell for being healthy):
Obtain a vial (about 100mL) of water from a steadily flowing river and put
aside. Light two blue candles and place at the north and south points of a
circle. Light two white candles and place at the east and west points of the
same circle. Scatter freshly picked lavender and crushed leaves of an
iceberg rose evenly around the perimeter of the circle and sit within it,
facing the north point. Cross arms loosely over the chest and focus your
awareness on the breath entering your body and slowly spreading through
it. Return your focus slowly to your environment and extinguish the
candles using the river water, kneeling before each as you do so, in the
order north-west-east-south.
Health Spell #2(for headache):
Lavender is known for being a relaxing herb, and can help one get rid of
headaches.
Light several small lavender scented candles and dim the lights.
Rub a few drops of lavender oil on your temples and place a warm, moist
washcloth on your forehead.
Lie down in a cool place surrounded by the candles. Imagine your head
feeling light and free of pressure.
The headache leaving your body.
After a few minutes your headache should be relieved.
Health Spell #3(to quit smoking):
You Will Need: 1 cigarette, 1 lighter
First, you need to really want to quit smoking. Also, it helps if you have
some kind of "assistance" such as a program or something to help you
out. Also, if the main reason you smoke it because of stress (like most of
us do) then make sure you have a lot of your stuff taken care of so that
there is as little stress as possible.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
60
Also for withdrawals, try Chammomile Tea.
Go outside, at night. Light up the smoke and inhale. Savor it. Enjoy it. And
then, aggressively snap it in half, throw it on the ground and stomp it out,
saying these words: "Herba Malefica; Adura, Adedo, Ademo".
Health Spell #4(for the nature):
You will need: Rocks, shells, flowers, Blue candle, incense
Arrange Seashells on a secluded beach to form a magick circle at least five
feet in diameter.(If you do not have access to a beach, you may perform
this spell in a forest or secluded garden using stones, branches and/or
flowers to form circle).
Kneel in the Center of the circle, facing the
ocean(or sky). Light a blue candle and a stick of incense(your choice) and
place them before you. Raise your arms high with palms up in a traditional
witch's prayer position, and recite the following chant:
With smoke and flame
This spells begun.
O Goddess of the stars,
Moon and the Sun,
Let the healing power begin.
Let the earth be whole again.
The Earth is my mother
And I am her child.
The Earth is my lover
Free and wild.
Heal on the outside, heal within,
Land and sea, fire and wind.
With love sincere I chant this prayer
To make mankind begin to care.
Let every sister and every brother
Heal the wounds of the great Earth mother
www.oldwitchcraft.com
61
Let the healing power begin,
Let the Earth be whole again.
Heal on the outside, heal within,
Land and sea, fire and wind.
So Mote It Be!
Health Spell #5(breaking a bad habit):
Meditate during the waning moon.
Light a pink candle for self-love; anoint it with the oil of your choice. Next
light a brown candle.
Engrave the number of pounds you want to lose on it, then visualize
banishing the excess weight. Runes can be carved on it if you wish.
Incense can be burned; visualize the smoke carrying away the excess
poundage. Adapt the spell to your own personal needs.
Health Spell #6(breaking a bad habit):
Begin this working any time during the waning moon. Set aside thirty
minutes each day to focus yourself and perform this working. The
components of this working have been selected for their attributes in
several areas such as healing, purification and memory enhancement. This
spell is performed over a period of three nights.
Components:
A quiet space
3 candles - one for each night tapers or votives:
choose your color: popular choices would include black for banishing the
habit, orange for change, red for courage, white for general use, etc.
Salt - sea salt or other available salt,
about 1 Tablespoon Rosemary herb - Rosemarinus officinalis - a small
handful or about 1/2 oz.
Parchment - or a small piece of quality paper about 4" X 4"
Your favorite writing instrument for rituals.
A small cloth pouch or bag this can be any color and you could match it to
the color you choose for your candles.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
62
Frankincense resin - Boswellia carterii - about 1 Tablespoon
A censer, cauldron, or heat proof dish with a small amount of sand or
gravel placed in the bottom
Three Self- ignighting charcoals - the type used for incense, not the kind
used for outdoor barbeques which contain toxins.
Arrange all of the spell components near you - don't forget to bring
something to light the candle and charcoal with and make sure that the
incense won't trip your smoke detector! What a shock that would be to
your focus! Light the charcoal and place it in the censor.
Sit quietly for a few minutes to focus on what you desire to achieve with
this working. You may choose to erect a "circle of protection" or "circle of
power" at this time if that is your standard procedure.
Using your favorite writing instrument and the parchment, write down a
few key words that describe the habit you wish to rid yourself of. Here are
some examples:
If you wish to release your anger or frustration about a current situation,
so you could write something like: "I will not let this get to me, I hereby
set my anger free".
If you wish to release yourself from eating sugar snacks each afternoon,
you might draw a picture of a piece of candy with an X over it. This is the
time to use your creativity and make the working an extension of your
energy by personalizing it. Your words do not have to rhyme, your picture
does not have to be artistically rendered, it does not have to make sense
to anyone else but you.
Light one of the three candles, and re-focus your intent. While you are
lighting the candle you may choose to say your favorite words for Fire
blessing or something like,
"The Fire within me is strong. I have the courage and desire to change."
Place the parchment in the cloth pouch.
Place the Rosemary and Frankincense in the pouch while keeping your
focus on your intent. Turn the pouch over several times to mix everything,
then reach in and remove a large pinch of the resin and herb mixture (not
the parchment). Place the mixture you removed on the charcoal to burn
and take several deep, steady breaths.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
63
You may wish to say your favorite words for Air blessing or something like,
"With each breath, I know that I can change."
Add the Salt to the pouch. Keep focusing on your intent. Again, you may
choose to say your favorite words for Earth blessing or something like, "I
have the strength of the Earth. I have the will to change."
Sit quietly for a few more minutes and consider different ways you help
yourself to alter your behavior. You will find that many new ideas will arise
in your mind that you previously had not thought of.
Allow the candle to burn down in a safe place and keep the pouch with
you. You can place it under your pillow or at your bedside while you sleep.
On the second night of the spell, light another charcoal and place it in the
censor. Light the next candle. Hold the cloth pouch in both hands and take
several deep, slow breaths. Focus your intent to alter your behavior. Try to
keep your focus for as long as possible. If you were not perfect in
changing your behavior since last night, do not feel guilty or frustrated.
Change takes time and the spell isn't over until the habit is transformed.
Reach into the pouch and remove a large pinch of the herb, resin, and salt
mixture. Place it on the burning charcoal. At this time you may wish to
confirm your intent by saying something like, "As I will it, so mote it be!"
or "So be it!" Let the candle burn down in a safe place.
On the third night. Light the last candle and the last charcoal. Repeat the
procedure from the second night except this time, remove the remainder
of the resin, herb & salt mixture, AND the parchment from the pouch.
Place the mixture and the parchment on the charcoal. Set the pouch aside
and focus on your intent while you watch your parchment/mixture burn.
You may wish to help the parchment along by touching it to the candle
flame and then dropping it into the censor. Again, you may wish to
confirm your intent by saying something like, "It is so!" or "So mote it be!"
Health Spell #7(Spell to help you eat less and become healthy):
Time -Sunset on a Waning Moon- (full to new moon)
Tools: yellow candle with holder, rose petals, lavender oil, small garnets,
carnelian or turquoise stone, small jar with lid or plastic bag that seals,
www.oldwitchcraft.com
64
picture of yourself healthy.
Charge yellow candle with desired goal and place in holder . As you light
the candle, visualize yourself passing on second helpings of food, small
portions on your plate and looking healthy and physically fit.
Charge rose petals, oil and stones. Sprinkle petals around candle, again
visualize your goal. Place the charged garnet stones and a few drops of oil
into the jar or bag. As you do this visualize again.
Then pick up the petals and place them into the jar or bag also. Seal the
jar or bag and say:
"By this jar/bag of powered oil,
petals and stones,
it will bring me courage and help me
meet my goal to not eat or snack
as much and become healthier."
Visualize yourself becoming healthier and moving the weight on the scale
to the left. Carry this jar or bag with you and sniff charged items before
eating.
Rub the charged carnelian or turquoise on the picture of yourself then rub
onto your body while visualizing yourself become the you in the picture.
Say:
"In no way will this spell cause me to suffer any adverse effects. So mote
it be!"
Carry the stone with you and rub it when you have the urge to snack or
eat too much.
Hang the picture up in your kitchen to view.
Allow the candle to burn for another hour then snuff it out and put away.
Burn it whenever you need the moral support.
Health Spell #8(surprising weight loss spell):
You need two things: jasmine essence, and a quartz crystal.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
65
J asmine is the flower of femininity. (I am supposing this magic to be
directed to a woman -- of course men do want to lose weight too. If this is
the case, choose an essence such as Patchouli or Vanilla). It is the flower
of senses, of pleasure, of physical attraction.
The best suited therefore to bring you back in touch with the pleasure of
being in your skin, of looking and feeling attractive, the feeling that exudes
naturally from a healthy and balanced body. In fact all the responsibility
for weight problems resides somewhere in the body's loss of its ability to
stay balanced.
Deficiencies on the emotional or mental plane are interfering with the
body's natural wisdom. When its balance is impaired its happiness is lost.
Through jasmine you may magically evoke that lost sensuous joyfulness.
With the crystal quartz you focus your energies on the issue at hand, and
give staying power to the healing forces.
Begin the process during the day, when the moon is full. Cleanse and
dress yourself and sit in your magic place. Place the jasmine flowers or
essence and also the quartz crystal in front of you together with the
symbols of the elements.
As you call the powers a different element will present itself to you,
according to where the imbalance is in you. That will of course change the
shape of the incantation. In this example I will use the element air --on
the basis of this example you can work out the different variations.
So air is in this case the element which speaks, the power which will help
you with this magic. Words belong to air magic. Now inhale the scent of
the jasmine and relax deeply to ask your subconscious to give you a word
-- the key word for this magic. For a few minutes you are sitting with your
eyes closed, thinking of nothing. When you sense your mind beginning to
wander astray, touch the quartz -- its magical powers will help immediately
to focus your attention again. Soon the key word will form itself in your
conscious mind: in this example it is "independence". It does not matter
that you understand why this particular word should be your key word.
Certainly a reason is there, your unconscious has its own deep wisdom --
but it is not important that you should be consciously aware of its motives.
Every night, from the full moon to the black moon, you will rub a few
drops of jasmine oil on your naked body. While doing this, let the key
word "independence" stay in your mind.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
66
As you revel in the fragrance of the jasmine, relaxing, images will come to
your mind, suggestions as to how to expand on the independence in your
life. Maybe you will have a vision on yourself learning a foreign language.
Following these suggestions is an essential part of this magic; if you want
it to work you will have to find a way.
The quartz will help you with that. If you find yourself saying "I have too
much to do, I cannot possibly fit this in, I never was good at languages
anyway." etc., touch the crystal and feel its energy for a few seconds. it
will immediately give you clarity and firmness of purpose, and you will be
able to see what you need to do, and have the determination to do it.
Every night, before going to sleep, rub the essence on your body, and
experiment with your key word. Keep the crystal with you at all times for
this period -- to touch it whenever you feel that you need to do so.
Thanks to the magic of the flower, of the crystal, and of the key word
given to you by the power air, a deep change will start in this period. A
change which will enable you to regain your natural balance, and the
grace and beauty that go with it.
Health Spell #9(simple weight loss spell):
Stand in front of a mirror and put your hands on your stomach. Chant
these words with feeling:
Goddess hear my plead,
Make me the weight I want to heed,
This size is to big for me,
A size (size you want to be) I want to be,
So Mote It Be
Health Spell #10( Herb J ar to Enhance your powers physically
and mentally):
Fill one jar with the following:
Cinnamon [for dream Magick]
Nutmeg [for good luck]
Allspice [healing]
Ginger [lunar Magick]
Basil [protection]
Fennel seeds [spiritual healing]
www.oldwitchcraft.com
67
Garlic [spiritual purification]
Marjoram [protection]
Sage [spiritual purification]
Cloves [protection]
Mustard seed [protection]
Before you do any scrying or any kind or psychic work, inhale the scent
deeply and shake the jar gently.
Health Spell #11(To lose your troubles and get rid of stress):
Take a handful of earth and gaze into it.
Put all your troubles and thoughts of distress into it.
State exactly what it is that's troubling you.
When finished, throw the dirt behind you and walk away without turning
around to look at it.
Also works with rocks.
Health Spell #12(spell for sleeping):
Place a sachet of lavender on your pillow and say over it before you go to
sleep:
"Peace be mine in this sleeping time dreams be sweet allow me sleep."
Health Spell #13(Get rid of Depression Spell):
Tools you will need are: Protection Incense (herbs or oils work fine also),
Yellow 8" Taper Candle.
It is best to find a work area that you can leave untouched for three days.
If you must put away your tools, try to at least keep your spell candle out
in the open. This spell is used to uplift your energy and overcome
depression. Read over this spell and customize it prior to use-the work will
go much smoother. Prepare your work area by setting up any tools you
may use. While setting up your area, concentrate on the purpose of your
work. Imagine how good it feels to be happy. Do not let negative thoughts
enter your mind!
J ust prior to your work, bathe in purification herbs, or with your favorite
bath salts. While you are bathing, concentrate again on the purpose of
www.oldwitchcraft.com
68
your spell. Again, do not let negative thoughts enter your mind. After
bathing, go to your work area. Cast a circle and light your incense.
Envision a large, yellow ball of light surrounding you and your work area.
Hold the yellow candle between the palms of your hands and direct all of
your positive energy into the candle.
Place the candle in its candle holder. Prior to lighting the candle, say
(either aloud, or to yourself):
"This candle represents the love and energy I have for myself" Light the
candle and say (either aloud or to yourself):
"As I light this candle, the veil of darkness
that is ever present in my mind is lifting.
The darkness ceases to exist as the light of this flame glows.
Long has the darkness filled my mind, my desire to be happy is intense
like the heat of fire.
As this candle burns, my spirits are lifting and the negative energy is
washing away.
I will be happy, my life will be peaceful.
I can see myself as I wish to be-happy and free!"
Sit back and watch the candle burn. Meditate on how good if feels to be
happy and envision the veil of darkness lifting.
When the candle had burned 1/3 of the way, say:
"As the flame of the candle is extinguished-the light burns forever in my
mind" and blow out the candle.
Repeat this for two more nights.
On the last night, after the candle has burned away and the leftover wax
has cooled-throw away the leftover wax into to trash and envision your
depression being thrown away with the wax. You will overcome your
depression!
Health Spell #14(positive action spell):
Take a white candle and some anointing oil. Depending on the desired
result, you should choose an oil which corresponds to this end.
At the time of the full moon, cast a circle or just shut yourself away from
all distractions and with the moon shining on your working area (if
www.oldwitchcraft.com
69
possible. If this is not possible, just visualize the moon while anointing the
candle).
Place the white candle (preferable a taper) on the altar with the oil. Cast
the circle if you wish. Call the Goddess if it feels right. Now, anoint the
candle. Should you wish, you can use a burin to engrave the candle with
the spell itself. While you anoint the candle with the oil, speak these
words:
"Tonight the moon,
tomorrow the sun.
Let this power build til my will be done.
Candle burn down to send my will.
This spell be cast, for good, not ill."
And once you have anointed the candle,
place it in a safe place to it can burn down
completely, preferably in sight of the moon

Amulet for Getting a J ob
To help your chances, fill a green flannel bag with gravel root on a night
when the moon is waxing.
Pass the bag through the rising smoke of a candle and/or incense (use a
green or gold candle and any of the following herbs as a scent/incense:
acacia, basil, bayberry, birthroot, luckyhand root, queen of the meadow,

as a tool of positive magick."
Now consecrate it to the four elemental/directional spirits, saying:

amulet now be charged with the mystical energy of your divine white
light."
"Ancient gods of the fire, and all elemental spirits of the sout, let this
amulet now be charged with the mystical energy of your divine white
light."

amulet now be charged with the mystical energy of your divine white

All negative forces working against my true will,
Remove all obstacles as I go forward,
Leaving success my wish to fulfill".
Start at mid-point again and in a docile downward motion anoint the
candle
while repeating the charge 3x. Anoint the green candle with the good luck
oil, saying (3x):
" I charge this candle to bring to me, good luck, success, and prosperity,
As it burns, a beacon bright, Shall all good forces join my rite".
You don't need to anoint the Petitioner candle. Since this candle is
representing you, focus strongly on, your educational goal. See yourself on
the first day of school. Light the candle saying:
"This candle represents (name), let it be a beacon for all positive forces
and energies. The flame represents the fire in (name)'s heart, burning
bright with the ambition and desire to achieve a better formal education."
Concentrate, directing your power to the Petitioner candle.
It is receiving energy from both you and the green candle. After 10
minutes of visualizing the good forces and energies flowing from the green
candle to the Petitioner candle, extinguish the three candles, (Petitioner,
then the green, then the black). Repeat this spell everyday, moving the
green candle closer (approx. 1/2") to the petitioner candle. The spell is
complete when the two touch.

How-To Become Calm and Centered
Make your magic more effective by building emotional and psychic
intensity and focusing clearly on your goal.
Here's how:
Equipment:
A very smooth, rounded stone, smaller than your fist: and some soothing
taped music.
The Spell:
(Beginners' Note: It is recommended that you perform this spell in the
context of a fully cast circle and Quarters. Take this spell seriously, and it
will open the door into the effectiveness of your future studies.)
Sit while holding the stone and listening to the music in a quiet room at
home, or in the outdoors if the weather is nice. Breathe deeply and
rhythmically. Begin inhaling through your mouth, then exhaling through
your nostrils with a long, steady humming note. With each exhalation,
make the note smoother and draw it out longer. Breathe your tension and
www.oldwitchcraft.com
78
anxiety into the stone. When you feel calm and centered, put the stone on
the ground, open the circle and walk away. The stone will dissipate the
tension into the Earth to be transmuted; if you wish, you can retrieve the
stone in a day or two for later use.
Levitation Spell
The following is a modern Witch's flying ointment recipe. It is safer to use
and much easier to concoct:
1/4 cup lard 1/2 tsp clove oil 1 tsp chimney soot 1/4 tsp dried cinquefoil
1/4 tsp dried mug wort 1/4 tsp dried thistle 1/4 dried vervain 1/2 tsp
benzoin tincture
Using a mortar and pestle, crush the dried herbs until almost powdered. In
a small cauldron or saucepan, heat the lard over a low flame until it is
melted completely. Add the herbs, the clove oil and chimney soot to the
lard base and mix well.
Add the benzoin as a natural preservative, stir together clockwise and then
simmer for ten to fifteen minutes.
Strain it through cheesecloth into a small heat resistant container and then
allow it to cool. Store it in your refrigerator or in a cool dark place until it is
ready to be used.
On a night of the Full Moon, anoint your temples and Third Eye with a
small amount of the flying ointment prior to astral projection or dream
magick.
Weather spells
The most effective means of razing winds, especially for sailing, is to carry
a knotted string, usually with 3 knots which are gradually loosened as
stronger winds are desired.
To bring rain: beat a broom upon the river and then shake it at the sky
To stop rain or storm: Bury a cup, preferably metal or bass, in order to
stop heavy rain and bring
www.oldwitchcraft.com
79
fair weather.
Gather oak leaves in a man's shirt and when its full hang it on a tree; a
wind springs up directly that drives all rain away, and keeps the weather
fair.
To raise a storm:
Dip a rag into water and beat it 3 times on a stone:
" I knock this rag upon this stone
To raise the wind in the devil's name
It shall not lye till I please again"
Rain Spell:
Directions: Go outside and look at the clouds. You should say:
"Ancient Gods and Goddesses,
I invoke thee.
Waters from the sky,
Let it be."
I command thee now
to thee all.
Listen to my desire,
Rain fall!"
Dream Spell- To dream of a certain person
1 Chunk of Amethyst 3 Rose petals 1 Lock of Hair 1 piece of daisy Root 1
Drop Rose or Patchouli Oil (optional) 1 Pink Candle (melted so wax binds
all togeather)
Take the amethyst, rose pedals, lock of hair, daisy root, and empower all
of them with what you want them to do (in this case being dream magick
of a lover or friend).
Place the amethyst next to your bed, atop it lay the rose petals, hair (the
person of whom you wish to dream of) and the daisy root. If you wish you
may top it all off with rose or patchouli oil, and melted pink wax!
www.oldwitchcraft.com
80
NOTE: To be done during the new moon, right before bed. While laying
down before going to sleep, keep the thought of the person in mind.
Get rid of Anger Spell
Visualize a circle of light around yourself Cup a black stone in your hands
and raise it to your forehead & then your heart, each time say these
words:
With this stone anger be gone water bind it no one find it.
Concentrate and project all your anger into the stone; with all your might
throw it into a lake, stream, river, or the ocean.
Spell for Healing a Pet
This is pretty basic:
Mix some healing oil, using:
6 drops Lavender oil
6 drops Camphor oil
6 drops Rosemary oil
1/2 ounce base oil (apricot kernel, jojoba, grape seed, even olive oil)
Annoint a black candle, a red candle and a brown candle with this healing
oil. The black is for absorption of the negativity (the illness), the red is for
strength and health, and the brown is an "astral" or "significator" candle
for the animal.
Place the brown candle between the black and red candles,
and make a ring of stones around the set-up, using stones or crystals that
you associate with healing (amethyst, quartz, agate...you choose
whichever type or combination of types).
Place some of the oil in your hands, and begin to rub them together,
generating heat and energy. When you feel that you've built a small
"bundle" of healing energy, place your hands on your pet, stroking it and
giving it the healing energy you've built, making sure to concentrate on
any areas where you feel or sense the illness.
Focus on the candles, continuing to maintain contact with your pet, and
visualize the strength from the red candle pouring into the brown candle,
www.oldwitchcraft.com
81
and pushing all the sickness into the black candle. Attune with the
Goddess, and when you've got a good grip on the visualizations above
(and the animal!), say:
"Goddess, with your healing touch
Bless this animal we love so much.
God, with beasts as your domain,
Remove the sickness, heal the pain.
So mote it be!"
Continue the stroking and energy flow until you feel that the spell is done,
then allow the animal plenty of time to rest and heal. Obviously, if you
wish to perform this spell in a cast circle, that's your choice.
If you wish to continue the spell for a number of days (I'd suggest at least
3 days), and your pet has a special place where it rests or "lives" (such as
a cage, etc.), ring this area, if possible, with the stones, place a red candle
on one side of the area and a black candle on the other (annointed with
the healing oil); focus on the red candle and project its energy into area
with your pet, visualizing the illness being pushed out the other side, since
there's no room for it, and into the black candle. Rub the oil onto your
hands and stroke it into/onto the animal's body as often as you feel
necessary.
Spell To Become Closer To Your Cat
Preparation: Work with brown candles. Take the following herbs and
empower each with its meaning and becoming closer to your pet/familiar
in mind.
Catnip-Helps create a bond between you Vervain-For Peace and Protection
Gardernia-For Spirituality Saffron-For Strength Love Seed-For Friendship
Passion Flower-For Friendship
Working: Take 1/2 of the empowered herbs and wrap in a small square of
brown cloth and tie it off with a brown cord or string. Take the other half
and make a smaller sachet for your pet. Wear yours four days meditating
with your pet at least once a day. You can tie the pet's sachet on while
meditating.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
82
After those four days take all the herbs and burn as incense while sharing
a meal with your pet.
Ground yourself, then sit or lie on the ground. Let your mind be led to the
animal. Make mind contact(it's best if you can see the animal or you are
within sight of it's home). Let your mind go out and touch the other form
of life. Blend with it; sense the surroundings, smell the smells; hear the
sounds; be aware of the temperatures. Once you have blended, introduce
yourself. Explain why you want to communicate with the animal.
Chapter VIII. How to Get Rid Of Bad Spirits
Of those things that are called ghosts, there are five broad categories, only
one of which may correctly be called ghosts. The proper way of getting rid
of manifestations in each category differs somewhat, as is to be expected,
because each has it's different origin or source.
The first category is made up of chthonic (or geomagnetic) entities,
variably called fairies, djinn, black dogs, etc. Some but not all
manifestations called cold spots or hot spots fall into this category as well.
Because these phenomena are tied in to geomagnetic activity, they are all
quite established, and any effort to get rid of them will only cause more
problems than it will solve. What we see when something manifests is a
result of the interface of this energy with our brains.
In a sense, they are not really there. The brain has to translate such
signals into data that can be read by our sense perceptions. To do this, the
mind must turn to its "library" of folklore, expectations, and experiential
templates to create a form that is not too incompatible with local cultural
beliefs in certain preternatural entities.
To illustrate my point, imagine the likelihood that an Irish farmer is going
to encounter Aisha Qandisha, a Morrocan chthonic entity. It's very unlikely,
but many countries do have equivalent characters in their folklore that will
determine the nature of their experience of those entities. Even cultural
trends, such as secularization and the advent of new technologies, will
affect how we see these things. Many UFO and ET sightings fit into this
category.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
83
For another mechanism that affects our perception, look below to the
Deity category. As for the likelihood of exterminating these "ghosts", well,
perish any thoughts you have of ridding your property of these things. Be
assured that most (but not all) of them are quite harmless, other than
being frightening, they manifest rarely, and they are easy enough to avoid
when they do show up. If you simply cannot tolerate these presence it is
you who must move away from them, as they were there long before you
were.
The next category deals with Qliphothic entities. These were brought into
existence by people dabbling in black magic practices such as necromancy,
sex magick, elemental magick, channeling, etc. They are also the agents
that are employed in curses. These entities are free-agent "ghosts" which
tend to have no will of their own. They can be commanded to carry out
missions, but once created or empowered, they are difficult to get rid of.
This is why sorcerers who dabble with these energies are frequently
plagued with bad luck. Other names for Qliphoth are "magickal child" and
"daemon". They do not tend to take a visible form but can be felt or
"sensed". When not employed, they tend to hover around the last place
where they were used, or return to their sender, vampirizing vital energy
from whoever is near-by.
Some people who think they have been cursed have simply attracted a
stray "magickal parasite". Those who participate in sances, or play with
Ouija boards are most at risk for attracting such strays. Qliphothic entities
can be exorcised, but it is not easy, and the process is somewhat
harrowing.
Over time, if neglected, unemployed, and lacking someone to "siphon"
energy from, they will eventually fade away completely.
Of the poltergeist category, I will only say a little. The moving and/or
flying objects are often a result of psychic turbulence emanating from
adolescent females with raging hormones. The phenomenon also
manifests sometimes in the presence of adult women during menstruation.
In the case of virgin girls, the cure for poltergeists is patience, as this
problem goes away once the hormonal levels stabilize. For adult women,
the Chinese herb formula Tang Kwei J in or something similar may cure it.
The Deity (or "Holy Ghost") category is more problematic. Often it will
happen that religious feelings result when a person is moved to awe by a
www.oldwitchcraft.com
84
manifestation from one or more of the other categories. The character of
that awe is the product of what I dare to call a pathological condition. To
explain what I mean by that, I'll give a brief discussion of Memetics.
Memetics is the study or observation of memes, which are linguistic
"germs", that is to say, "viruses" encoded in and transmitted through
language. Most or all concepts of a god are transmitted through written or
spoken words, and thereafter all manifestations natural or supernatural are
seen as emanating from the will of that "god". The brain has become
reprogrammed by that thought-virus to perpetuate and spread the virus to
others, just as real viruses do to DNA. DNA is one kind of code, words are
another.
The most powerful Deity Virus is the YHWH virus, and all of its mutations.
It has endured by adapting to ever-changing demands put upon its host
brains, and has even managed to influence the character of other Deity
Viruses. The only way to cure an individual of an active Deity Virus is by
Heroic Deprogramming, a process as brutal and harrowing to the patient
as chemotherapy is to a cancer patient, and as with the latter example,
likely as ineffectual, with the possibility of an eventual reinfection.
Finally, the ghost (or haunt) category. This is the true ghost. It is a
localized residual traumatic psychic imprint left on the geomagnetic grid
and confined to a specific area no bigger than 1-3 miles and no smaller
than 1 square foot. This can manifest in many ways, such as spectres,
voices, floating lights, tactile sensations, cold or hot spots, the appearance
of moving objects, etc. Sometimes difficult to distinguish from many
chthonic manifestations or poltergeists, it takes a sensitive and
experienced ghost hunter to tell them apart.
The easiest way to make the distinction is to treat any such manifestation
as a ghost, and if it fails to go away, it is likely one of the other types. The
method of "busting these ghosts relies on effectively de-anchoring them
from the geomagnetic grid. When effectively de-anchored, they will
inevitably fall back into the "void of potentiality", what some people refer
to as "the source" or "the light". De-anchoring them requires courage and
a willingness to accept that a mistake could cost you your life or sanity.
Historically, the most fearless and effective ghost hunters have been Taoist
magicians, who for many centuries have been refining the art. Taoist
magicians are immune to the Deity Viruses, and for that reason have been
www.oldwitchcraft.com
85
free from distraction to carry out their work. Applying the principles of
Geomancy (feng shui Note: Ill discuss these principles in a further
update or if you find your self in urgent situation, give me an email and Ill
reply to you as soon as possible) as well as other more esoteric arts, they
can easily rid a space of ghosts, and (temporarily) even chthonic entities. I
may venture to say that the Taoist approach, if it is mastered, can readily
eliminate or prevent manifestations from all five categories.
Further, a Taoist magician can create or redirect these manifestations to
serve good or not-so-good purposes. The modern ghost hunter must have
a familiarity with the Taoist principles, as well as various more recent
findings, such as the "law of the trapezoid". A thorough familiarity with
occultism and folklore is expected, and a hightened sensitivity to subtle
ambient cues (intuition). Training in shamanism (primitive spirit-retrieval
art) would do you much good, too.
An apprenticeship is highly recommended, as it is good to observe and
learn the experience of a seasoned hunter. However, I will concede that
some individuals may be gifted. I nevertheless advise younger ghost
hunters to work in pairs just in case there are problems.
The uniform of the professional ghost-hunter is not about cut and color,
but conductivity.
The ghost hunter must be well-grounded, because when approaching
ghosts, you need to be equally installed in the "grid" the better to perceive
them. Your footwear must be solid leather, tops, soles, and insoles, and
very sturdy. No plastic, rubber, or artificial fibers. Socks should be 100%
wool. No artificial fibers in your clothing either. No zippers, only buttons or
buckles. Glasses or shades must be of real glass with wire or metal rims.
No electronic items are to be on your person. Chronometers, if worn,
should be wind-up, and kept in a pocket, rather than on the wrist. If you
use any instruments to measure radiation or EM levels, put them down
before approaching your quarry.
These things interfere greatly with your effectiveness. Do not wear or use
crystals or any gems or precious stones unless you are 100% confident
about the practical effects of bringing such things into your work. There
are circumstances whereby a crystal could potentially make your quarry
stronger than you.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
86
Once you have identified your ghost, moving or stationary, and
ascertained that it is of the simple haunt category, you must with
confidence stride right up to it and (depending on your training) either
walk into it, stand on it, or take it in your arms. Momentarily, its place on
the grid is also yours, and a window of opportunity opens up to de-anchor
it. The Taoist approach is to open up a passage within oneself into the
void whereto the ghost will quickly be drawn. If you screw up this part,
guess what: You and that ghost now share the same body until you can
regain your balance enough to try voiding it again.
In this practice, fear is your enemy, not ghosts. Disciplined control of your
rate of breath and heart beat should be automatic, as absolute equilibrium
and serenity are essential to your capacity to time everything perfectly. It
is difficult to anticipate what kind of sensations will be felt at the moment
of contact, although it's safe to say that it's never pleasant. It may happen
sometimes that you've misidentified your ghost and find yourself trying to
void a chthonic critter. Well, all I can say is good luck to you.
Some have succeeded. This is where your training really comes in handy.
I've seen many failures, dead or insane from a bad encounter. If you have
doubts about, go the safe route and try some feng shui on it instead. It's
perfectly okay to throw your hands up and admit that you can't handle
something.
In some countries, professional ghost-hunters are welcome and
appreciated parts of a community as they are often by trade also
shamans, healers and wise counselors. However, here in the Western
hemisphere the true professional ghost-hunters work underground.
Absolutely shunning media attention, they get clients solely by word-of-
mouth, and will literally "enforce" the secrecy clause in their contracts (and
not in court, mind you). It is too easy to create a media circus around
these things, and the next thing you know, there are laws, licenses, mail-
order schools, and fee regulations. We don't want that, and thus the strict
protection of our art.
Most high-profile ghost-hunters that one sees in books, magazines, and on
television, are not of this discipline, but are merely common attentions-
starved thrill-seekers who simply want to see ghosts and document them,
but lack the means to remove them.
www.oldwitchcraft.com
87
In conclusion, I would like to comment that these five categories are only
categories for the convenience of classification. In reality, there are
hybrids as well as certain anomalies which lie outside these five that I
have named.
Chapter IX. Glossary
Ethics Related to Witchcraft
Don't manipulate others and force them to do things against their will. It's
not worth the consequences (I didn't believe there would be any until I
experienced a few myself). There is so much free energy and so many free
resources that it is virtually unnecessary to manipulate (e.g. bend others
to your will without giving them a choice) in order to obtain your goals. If
you're ever in doubt as to whether you should do something to or for
someone, just imagine how you'd feel if someone did the same thing to
you without giving you a choice.
Don't use magick as a form of escapism from physical reality. You'll only
end up living in and hoping for a fantasy future that never comes. Plan for
the future, learn from the past, but LIVE in the present and don't neglect
the physical realm. Support your magickal workings with physical action to
ensure good results. The physical realm is a great mirror for reflecting
your personal internal problems and issues back to yourself (through social
interactions).
If you're not successful with human interaction in the physical realm, and
you're not successful with establishing a comfortable (to you) physical
existence for yourself through normal means, then how can you expect to
become a successful magickian?
Help only those who are willing to help themselves. I know this one
sounds selfish, but it avoids wasting time and energy on people who want
you to do all the work while they sit back and allow you to spoon-feed
them. Such individuals usually don't want to change or fix the root of their
problem (which is usually in themselves). They only want a quick fix that
will allow them to remain the same. That is why I prefer only to help those
who are at least willing to help themselves (even if they're not in a position
to do so).
www.oldwitchcraft.com
88
Ultimately, regardless of whatever direction you decide to pursue from
here, you'll have to figure out a way to put all this stuff together into One
system- YOUR OWN. The solitary non-traditionalist would have an
advantage here, having been developing his own personal system and
ways of viewing reality all along (although in many cases such views are
eclectic and often not compatible with mainstream magick systems).

solitary Esbat can last from fifteen minutes to over an hour. How you plan
your ritual is up to you.

Meditations - Mental, stress-relieving exercises used to draw body, mind,
and spirit into a single focus, in order to enhance the quality of life. Daily
meditation practices help to promote a healthier outlook on life. Daily

Moon Void of Course - An astrological term. At the end of each passage of
the Moon through a sign (usually every two or three days) the Moon
leaves behind her last aspect (sharing energy with another planet) and
prepares to enter a new sign. At this point she is said to be "Void of
Course" -- that is, without a course, or direction. This stage lasts from a
few hours to a few days, during which strange things can happen. Avoid
making major decisions or planning important events.
Pentacle - A magickal symbol consisting of a pentagram - a five-pointed
star -- pointing upward and enclosed by a circle. Worshipped by the
ancients, its meaning is "life" or "health". It is worn as a symbol of a
Witch's belief and used in magickal workings and ceremonies. Each point
on the star relates to the five magickal Elements - Earth, Air, Fire, Water,
and Spirit. The Pentacle has never indicated anything evil, and if a person
uses a pentacle and does nasty things it is a sure sign that they haven't a
clue what they are doing.
Phases of the Moon - The stages of our Moon's journey around the Earth.
One complete orbit of the Moon around the Earth is called a lunar cycle
and takes just under a month. During its journey the Moon passes from
New to Full and back to New, going through various stages in between,
such as a Crescent Moon. There are eight Moon phases or stages (spread
across four quarters) per cycle, and thirteen lunar cycles per year.
Planetary Hour - Also called a magickal hour. Divisions of night and day
that are guided by astrological influences and the energies of the various
www.oldwitchcraft.com

planets. Most serious Craft books and astrological texts carry this
information.

it journeys around the Earth. The first and second quarters encompass
the stages from New to Full Moon, while the third and fourth quarters
represent the journey back from Full to New.
Sabbat -- A Witchcraft ceremony of honor acknowledging the eight
segments of the Wiccan year, the cycle of the seasons, and the influence
of Spirit in our lives. There are eight Sabbats, also called High Holy Days.
Sacred Space - An area cleansed by the four elements and used for
religious purposes. You can also create sacred space around your bed if
you have trouble sleeping, are in a sick room, and so on.
Sacred Spiral - A Wiccan symbol that represents "coming into being" death
and rebirth and the cycle of life. Single and double spirals were among
the most sacred signs of Neolithic Europe, and the spiral still plays an
important part in magickal workings.
Scrying Mirror - A mirror used for divination purposes. It is painted black
on one side and dipped or painted with an herbal wash to enhance the
power of its reflective surface. The mirror may also feature magickal sigils.
Sigil --A type of symbol. A magickally oriented seal, sign, glyph
(sculptured character or symbol) or other device used in a magickal
working. The most powerful sigils are those that you create yourself. Sigils
can be used on letters, packages, clothing, paper, or tucked in your
pocket.
"So Mote It Be" - A much-used expression in WitchCraft. "Mote" means
"must" in Old English, so the expression is saying: "As I will, it must be
done."
Spell - A kind of prayer, spoken or unspoken, that may also use a variety
of physical tools (herbs, string, candles, and so on) to help the
practitioner's mind to focus on their desire.
Spirit - Your personal concept of God/dess -- the energy-force that "runs"
the universe.
Talisman - An object - a gemstone, a drawing, whatever - that has been
magickally charged and is then carried in order to help the bearer in some
way. The charging of the talisman is most important; it can be discharged
under running water. The word "talisman" is said to come from the Arabic
words talis ma, or "magick writing". Talismans work under planetary
influences.
Widdershins - Moving in a counter-clockwise direction.
