During this lesson of about two hours, we will be creating a spell together.
When you build a spell yourself, from the ground up, you infuse it with your deliberateness, your preferences, your wishes, your thoughts, and your energies. This spell will be much more powerful and complete than any ready-made charm could ever be.
The general path that we will follow is this:
-
Prepare Yourself: take a paper (or your magic notebook), a pen or pencil, and assemble a small altar on your workspace. Chose one or more crystals that will support your intuition and insights. A burning candle will inspire your creativity and mental powers. If you like fire an incense stick to call the smell sense into the creative field. A cup of your favorite tea will relax you, preparing you for the work session ahead.
-
Decide What You Want: decide what you wish to accomplish. Do you need a dose of prosperity? Are you preparing for a self-initiation? Do you want to cleanse a physical space? Once you've made the decision write your intention and ask to the spirits that want to help you to come. You can also call upon a guide or a muse.
-
Write Your Spell! Don't worry about your first draft being perfect: just let your brain dump all of its ideas onto the page. Once the raw material is there, you can start to fiddle with it. With the basic ideas in place, add image-rich words, drawings and whatever you fell like.
-
Work the Spell. Once the words are captured on paper, you're ready to assemble your materials and work the spell. Feel the energy flowing into the field of the spell, into your consciousness, open your perceptions and follow your intuition and wish (you may want to sing or to move around or to write more . . . feel completely free to follow the spell energy).
-
Giving thanks and Evaluating. After working the spell comes give thanks to all the energies and entities that came and close the field. The results will manifest in the following days. Take notes about everything that happens and that you feel related withe the spell energy.
