one word spells

As long as you can focus your energy and set your intention your spell should work, so I’ve designed these 5 spells using just one word for a Witch who needs a quick fix.

Mariquil

Pronounced mar-e-quil

Used to calm a temper or an upset person. From the latin word for sea, mare, and the english word tranquil. Essentially you are calling the sea inside them to be still. For better results cast with wet hands.

Univert

Pronounced Uni-var

Used for faster transport. I use it at the train station to have a shorter wait time but really its designed for traffic lights. By combining uni from universe and vert,the french word for green, you’re essentially asking the universe to make your path green.

Visididen

Pronounced Vis-e-did-en

Used to go unnoticed or invisible. Taken from the english words vision and hidden. For best results chant it softly while visualising yourself turning transparent.

Lapagna

Pronounced Lap-ag-na

Used when you just need someone to shut the f**k up but are too polite to say so. Taken from the Latin words lapis and magna, meaning stone and voice. For best results hold a stone or some earth while casting, if they’re really pissing you off just throw the stone or dirt at them.

Bavarignis

pronounced Bav-are-ig-ni

Used to strike up a conversation or to continue a conversation. Taken from the French word bavarder, which means chat, and the Latin word ignis, which means fire. Basically you’re asking for the conversation to spark or catch fire. For best results flick a lighter in your pocket or light a match.

I AM SO HERE FOR MAGIC WORDS.

[spellsandseashells]

God I’m so in love with magic words I’m going to start creating some right now.

For warding the home:

Murusidium

Pronounced : MOO roos id ee um

Combines Latin words for wall and protection, asking for the walls of your home to offer a spiritual protection. Works best with your hands on the wall you want to enchant

For success at work/promotion:

Victeloffici

Pronounced Vic-tel-o-FI-see

Combines the Latin words for success, arrow, and job. Asking for movement like an arrow in the career, added success to ensure that it is successful movement.

For getting a job:

Obtanoficcium

Pronounced: ob-tan-o-FI-see-um

English word obtain with Latin word for job. Best murmured at an interview or while submitting an application.

To get smooth the mind:

Chamomenta

Pronounced CA-mo-men-ta

Chamomile- a notoriously soothing tea and menta-meaning mind. Best murmured into a cup of well chamomile tea.

For a burst of confidence: Confidissi

From the Latin for bursting forth and the English confident. Best spoken with a clenched fist.

For good luck: Ádhuerte

Pronounced ahh-d-where-tay

From the Irish for luck and the Spanish for strong/luck (fuerte/suerte)

My boyfriend is doing something awesome.

He’s making an online spell maker/ witch encyclopedia

Basically you can type in an intent or keywords and get ideas for spells

Or you can type out everything you want and it is also color coded (key words like love are red, courage is orange, etc.) and do cyber spells

It’s not done yet but once it is I’ll for sure be sharing on here!

[mysticbusiness-deactivated20161]

[veritysoddities]

We plan on releasing it soon, the only thing is that not every ingredient has been added and after its out we may still be in the process of adding

[rebellious-wisdom]

Look forward to it! Android?

[veritysoddities]

Certainly it works on all phones since it’ll be a web app, but it can be added to your home screen for convenience :)

Spell Loopholes

Wording a spell correctly is extremely important! We’ve all heard the stories of someone who cast a spell and technically had it come true, but in a way that wasn’t what they actually wanted at all! Here’s a list of common “loopholes” spells will take to get the job done, and how to make sure you get what you want!

🕯Taking its time- “I want money,” you tell the Universe, hoping to get some help with rent. Well, rent comes and there’s no extra cash in sight! Then, two weeks later, a surprise wad of cash all but lands in your lap. The spell came true, but not in time for when it mattered. This is easily fixed by adding “…by the end of the month,” or specifying what the money is for, which in this case was this month’s rent.

🕯No help needed- “I want money,” you say again. Magic will often take the path of least resistance, so if you’ve already got a paycheck on the way, the spell might not do much besides make sure it doesn’t get lost. There. Money. It can be good to specify that you want your spell to work in addition to everything you’re already doing!

🕯 Bare minimum- This time from your money spell, it arrives on time from an unexpected source! But it’s a quarter you found on the ground. Maybe three quarters. Not much help! If your intent would require the money to be close to a certain amount or any other specific like that, let it be known! The universe isn’t there to make assumptions.

🕯 For the worst- Let’s say you have two friends that have been flirting, so you cast a nice little spell to let any mutual interest between them blossom into a relationship and save them some trouble. It happens, but it turns out they do NOT work well with each other. They are interested in each other, but argue constantly and bring out the worst in each other. The relationship is hurting them both. You had the absolute best of intentions, but there was no way of knowing that would happen! This is why a lot of witches include the phrase, “for the highest good” in their spells, as a failsafe for any unexpected pitfalls like this that may be lurking. The universe will see them but doesn’t know to care unless you specify.

🕯Another layer- Once I made a dream bear to bring me more dreams. Well, I had lots more dreams, but couldn’t remember any of them! I didn’t think that was something I needed to specify. Make sure you hit every point you need to be satisfied with a result.

As a general rule, if my spell includes a prayer or petition of any sort, I take a few minutes and comb through it for stuff like this beforehand. What am I specifying? What am I leaving up to interpretation? Could any of that manifest in a way I would be unhappy with? Take a little time before you start casting to smooth out all those wrinkles! Best of wishes!

[hallowsandhexes]

As you may or may not know, I’ve been studying abroad in Italy. Flying makes me pretty nervous, so I made myself a charm to carry with me all the time. It also has an Anti-Theft herbal mix inside the vial, since pick-pocketing is supposed to be very common here. 

To do this, you will need vial of some sort. I purchased mine at JoAnn’s, but you can pick one that works for you.

hallowsandhexes’ Safe Travels Charm

Ingredients and Uses:

Amethyst: protection against theft, calming fears, and reducing stress

Aquamarine: safe travel over water, soothing emotional problems

Obsidian: protection and grounding

Tiger’s Eye: protection, money, reducing stress, increasing confidence

Caraway: anti-theft and protection

Comfrey: safety during travel and money

Juniper: anti-theft and protection

Mint: money, safety during travel, and protection

Instructions:

Place your gemstones into the vial, concentrating each one’s purpose as you add it. Once done, add in a SMALL pinch of the herbs, again focusing on the purpose of the mix. (Too much added will make it difficult to see the stones.) If you’re using a vial with a cork, you may want to add a little bit of glue to it when you’re ready to close it off to ensure that it doesn’t fall out.

Optional Step: add rosemary and frankincense to the herbal blend to create an incense to add a little protective oomph to your charm!

Note on the gemstones: I purchased beads that were made out of each stone at a little shop in my hometown where they aren’t horribly expensive. I don’t know if you can buy from them online (I can’t load any of their website from Italy, apparently), but here’s their website.

Safe and happy travels to you all!

Spell/Charm Ideas for Gamers

Mana “potions” that boost your energy (orange juice or energy drinks with sigils drawn at the bottom of the glass/can?)

Heath “potions” that boost your health (i.e. honey-lemon tea for colds)

“Enchanted” jewellery (Amulet of Potent Mana, which gives you energy [sunstone?]; Ring of Blocking, which helps you roll with the punches of daily life; Necklace of Sneaking, which helps you lay low and blend in when you don’t want to be bothered – great for introverts in public places)

SIGILS, THINK OF THE SIGILS: Sigil of Resist Fire, for coping with “fiery” arguments or people; Sigil of Resist Frost, for coping with cold and heartless people (or, just saying: Resist Fire and Resist Frost can help you get through your least favourite seasons); Sigil of Resist Magic, to protect you from minor malevolent spells cast in your direction

Shielding meditations = Holy Light protection shield for priests or paladins (like WoW)

Different types of armour: “rogue armour” is a leather band tied around your wrist, to promote subtlety, sneaking, and persuasion (marksman armour can be the same, but charged differently to promote precision, speed, and patience); “mage/spellcaster armour” is a cloth or bit of silk around your wrist, to promote magic, grace, and wisdom; “warrior armour” is a metal bangle (or maybe a really thick necklace that looks like a gorget), to promote strength, leadership, and confidence

Sword keychains used as “enchanted” weaponry (yes they sell sword keychains; I have one). Enchant it and wear it to promote whatever you want (combat frost/fire, promote “warrior” traits). Just make sure wherever you go with it, you’re allowed to have it; as some places consider it a weapon.

Feel free to add any you come up with!

[an-stoirm]

Sympathetic Magic using a character sheet from Pathfinder or something similar. Make YOU, the character. Your level is your AGE divided by 2, round down (eg: 13/2 = 6.5 rounded to 6.) Pick traits you aspire for, things you wish others to see you as. Then you can make a binding ritual of sorts, that makes that character *you*. On your birthday, you update the character sheet.

Ritualize playing Video Game…I say this because I like to replay Twilight Princess around autumn as that game means a lot to me. Replaying it restrengthens the values of the game in my life.

Devote playing a game to a deity or other entity…Not strictly witchy, but it’s a good idea nonetheless! Similar to the ritualized game play I mentioned, you could start a new game dedicating it to the deities. (Just maybe don’t God of War and dedicate it to the Greek Gods…Just saying.)

Divination using a d20, like I do at my shop!

Go forth Nerds!

[witchcraftings]

This is why I need to get into Pathfinder. Great ideas!

Also, I know this has been done before, but your devotional play reminded me: creating shrines in Minecraft.

Also, also: I actually am working on this, and will probably make a separate post. But I’m building my own Skyrim-esque house in the astral to come to whenever I need to escape. It’s not really related to gaming, but still.

Most Simple Way to Develop Your Psychic Abilities

1: Try guessing the exact number of something, like the time or the number of notes on a picture before you see the # of notes

2: Try guessing whose texting or calling you first

3: Meditate

4: Use old pictures of your friend and hold it in your hands. Try to feel what going on at that moment. FOCUS. Ask your friend if you were right.

5: Practice with rhine cards, on the daily.

6: Read more on spirituality

7: Don't doubt yourself, remember everybody has psychic powers to some extent and everybody CAN develop them.

Spell for hope

Write down all the reasons you should keep going. Charge it each night with starlight. Read it every morning. Think about the fact that if the light of probably long dead star can can travel through space to end its journey on a piece of paper owned by you, then nothing is impossible.

[asksecularwitch]

Not that I want to but in here but this is an adorable spell okay. And I just want to highlight it.

It doesn’t have a lot of notes, so I’m wondering if it’s because it maybe doesn’t look like one could really do a whole lot with this. But this actually does execute several different magical techniques at once.

1. Paper - Paper is a very common medium by which people write and do a lot of spells on. In fact, paper itself can be one of the most important elements to particular spells. Some people use paper to create contracts, some people use particular types of paper to create art with and use that art to enchant things, some people use particular paper to hold things [like creating an origami box, to create a spell trap, just for instance]. Paper can be folded, cut, burned, stripped, written on, painted on, sprayed on, etc. It’s extremely versatile as a medium used in witchcraft. I have used paper in shapes before, I have written on paper and let it soak in acid/vinegar, I have done all kinds of shit with paper. 

2. Writing - WRITING is also a really good construction for spells. Written (or rather words that are in a form that are not verbalized, I should say) is an extremely common thing in witchcraft as well. Usually it goes hand and hand with paper magic. But not always. FOR INSTANCE, writing in honey on a plate, and then running water over it, and drinking the words. Or writing in water on your skin to absorb the words. Or stitching words into garments. The very act of writing it down may help solidify things for you from a magical perspective.

3. Repetition - so this spell does have a repetitive element to it, with every night and every morning. Repetition is very common in what I like to refer to as “layered spellwork.” Meaning you wear the spell down into itself over and over again, putting one more layer on top, one more layer on top. It’s really a foundational member for a lot of folk magic paradigms. The more times you do it, the more time you put into it, the stronger that magic becomes.

4. Charging via Celestial bodies - so charging can happen through a variety of means, for instance one can charge an object by putting their hands on it. But there’s also the idea of charging things by the sun, the moon, under a certain star constellation, under a certain day [you bring it out to absorb the day and put it away at midnight]. It’s extremely common in my opinion, in more simplistic spells, for there to be a charging component via a celestial body. 

5. Visualization or Mental Processing - The thinking or processing of the star light traveling through space to the paper is another very common spell mechanism. Now some people cannot visualize light passing through to the paper, so that’s why I’m also grouping the thought together with this one. It’s very mental, it makes this thought of these items here, very internalized. There’s a lot of internalization magic in the world, especially when it comes to Sigil working sometimes. There’s this idea with particular sigils that you think and process them so hard that they literally become a fundamental thing in your living body. They become embodied in your brain cells and ultimately become *alive* or *activated*. So this is a very, very, very specific form of thought magic.

But I thought looking into it that it was very near that concept. 

So this is an extremely advanced spell [meaning it has 5 or more things, depending on if you add on some other things like, what kind of ink was used, how the the words were written, like in a spiral, for instance, or over each other, or as a list, as a picture poem, etc etc etc] and it’s extraordinarily simple and awesome.

APPRECIATE THIS SPELL. LOVE IT.

THAT’S ALL I’M SAYING.
