finding starter spells
By:

I have been away from the practice for a while and need spells to help starters. I believe in magic but I feel like I should have all belief and no doubt at all. So any spell to raise my belief would be nice. Thank you

there is no real starting out spells but i suggest if you don't firmly believe in magick then you should probably search to understand how it actually works and the fundamentals of it. it's not chanting and waving a wand, it's about state of mind and state of being, magick isn't just done by you or by some mystical force. but if you want to try something that you can see work befor your eyes i'd suggest learning how to use a pendulum, just keep in mind that this takes a lot of practice before you get good at it but it can be very helpful and an easier way for divination

If you're serious about learning how to do magic and with starting from the rock-bottom then you don't start out by casting spells, you start out by learning how and why magic works.

You see, there is no such thing as an "easy" spell or a "beginner" spell. One either understands how magic works and has mastered the basics...in which case the magic will work..or you haven't done that sort of work..and no spell will work no matter how "easy" it seems.

Casting a successful spell involves much more than finding some spell on the internet or in a book, saying some words, lighting a candle, waving a wand of any of that sort of thing. In order for magic to work you need to understand how and why it works in the first place. Grounding and centering, visualization, focus and intent, energy manipulation, etc are all necessary first steps to even begin to have a chance at a spell actually working...and more importantly to prevent a spell from back-firing on you.

So, my advice for anyone who is truly serious is to start by reading a few books and practicing the exercises those books will give you. Once you have mastered the basics you won't need anyone to give you spells, you'll be able to create your own spells that will be far more effective than anything you find on the net. Here's the books I suggest:

"Before You Cast a Spell" by Carl McColman

"Spells and How They Work" by Janet and Stewart Farrar

"The Veil's Edge" by Willow Polson

"Modern Magick" by Donald Michael Kraig

And the following links in this thread will also help you learn the basic skills necessary for effective spellwork.
