Mechanics of a Spell
0
What makes a spell a spell? What are the moving pieces and the working parts? We get this question a lot, and though there isn’t a super easy answer, this is what we’ve gathered through our practice.
Intent:
This is your thought, you desire and your purpose. This is why you perform your spell, this is what gives it meaning.
Examples of Intent: To enhance love, to increase luck, to bring bad luck
Action:
This is your moving piece. This is what transforms a mere thought into something that is acted upon. This is the glue between your intent and your energy.
Examples of action: Combining ingredients, writing or saying things aloud, burning objects, drawing sigils
Energy:
This is the driving force of your spell. This is what your intent hinges on, and what will push your intent out into the universe.
Examples of Energy: Energy from an organic or important object, crystals, herbs, materials, consecration, and charging
Using this basic formula, you can create your own spells for any use with any materials on hand!
