Ok, so I keep hearing that in order for a spell to be successful you to to "will" it to be. But how exactly do you do that? Anyone have any techniques or suggestions. I saw some one describe it once as like telling yourself youre gonna get up at seven oclock in the morning, and then doing it. Same concept. Except when casting a spell youre telling the universe instead of yourself?? So do you use certain phrases or thoughts? I already know about centering, casting circles, spiritual guides, meditation and grounding. But I know meditation is really important. Any advice?
