Spells, Exercises, and Lessons for Beginner Witches
"I Want the Real Spells that Work!"
Many novices will ask Witches for the real spells, as if they think we Witches are hoarding all the good ones. We're not! I promise.
Here is your problem: looking for spells when you haven't studied Witchcraft is like looking for sheet music when you haven't learned how to play an instrument yet.
Unfortunately, a lot of websites just hand you spells— many of which are by people who have not studied the craft from reputable sources, so these spells come off sounding like something from Charmed. But saying a rhyme and lighting a fire doesn't make things go 'poof'.
The following directory of how-to articles and instructional guides has been a labor of love that took me a couple of years to work on (and it's still a work in progress). I respect the craft and want students to learn it properly.
Please feel free to ask questions or email me. I do my best to answer regularly.
Note: some links only work if you click on them directly. If you try to open them in a new window they may say 'about blank'.

Wicca or Witchcraft?
Wicca and Witchcraft can go hand-in-hand. They can also be mutually exclusive. Wicca is primarily a religion. As a Wiccan Witch, I write about both. The articles here are mainly focused on the skill of Witchcraft and can be applied by any Witch of any religion.
What to Read & How to Study to Be a Witch
A good place to begin is to read the articles below. In my book, 13 Moons to Becoming Wiccan: Making the Transition from Theory to Practice, on my website, and in these articles, I have shared my knowledge. They will explain a few things you need to know right up front and help you adjust your expectations and avoid some pitfalls.
Note: Because I am Wiccan, some articles specify Wicca. However, the techniques I describe and the principles behind them in these articles can be universally applied. You do not need to be Wiccan.

Witchcraft isn't easy— mistakes can be made. Knowing what pitfalls to avoid can sometimes be half the battle.
Pre-Requisites: The Mind
The most important tool in Witchcraft is your mind— that's what makes it work. The words, the herbs and candles, the tools and gestures— these are all for focus and to borrow their energy. They don't make anything happen on their own.
What makes a spell work is what takes place in your mind. It's of the utmost importance that you train your mind properly. The only real way to do that is through meditation.

Types of Spells and Magic
Spells are not just following a script like play acting. You need to understand what you're doing. There are philosophies behind magic that you need to understand before you can expect it to work for you. If just reading words off a page was enough to make something happen, then every actor playing a witch on television would be shooting fireballs.
Here are some basic types or 'styles' of magic and spell casting that you can learn. Even though the technique may stay consistent, you only need change up a few things to apply them to any purpose. The more you practice, the more adept you will become.

Welcome to your herbology class. If you ever wanted to practice herbal magic, I am building this resource for you.
I lean heavily towards magical herbalism in my practice. I love to grow my own herbs, even though I don't even have land!

I enjoy learning about the legends, lore, and mythology associated with plants. Here you can pick and choose whichever plant it is you desire to learn about, and if you don't find what you are looking for, feel free to put in a request. I'll be adding more of these on a weekly basis.

We Want Spells! We Want Spells!
Okay, okay! Please remember though, that you should not jump into spells first.
Still, when you're ready to practice, here are a number of spells you can try. I explain them in full detail, including what your mind should be doing, or why you are doing it. Also remember that any spell you see should be seen as a springboard, not written law. As you learn to understand the principles of Witchcraft, you can adapt them as you see fit.
Finally, you'll notice some of these spells were made specifically for Wiccan Sabbats— that's okay! They're just a good option for Wiccans looking for seasonal workings. You don't need to be Wiccan to do them, and you don't even need to do them on the Sabbat (you don't even need to celebrate the Sabbat).

Comments
So many aspects of my life pointed towards witchcraft but it didn’t fully click until a few weeks ago. Now, the spirituality and my own healing, my deep love of nature, attraction to the fantasy realm and manifesting goals are all tied together. It took me a long time but now I feel like I am on a guided path of discovery and slowly being shown the steps. Learning about witchcraft and working w nature also feels therapeutic for me and seems to help me cope w my loneliness better.
I tend to be impatient lol but feel like my next step should be to read about our history and study Sigil’s. I like what I know about them so far and think they could be a good place to start practicing. I am very interested in reading your articles too and see where they take me. I am a solitary witch but bought a journal to keep track of all my ceremonies, Sigil doodles, ideas etc.
I absolutely agree that training the mind is the most important aspect. I hope that working with magic can help me to heal and with time, develop my abilities more and shape my life. I can think of so many spells that I want to try (lost love, money, finding a perfect and affordable apartment to rent, cutting old ties, attracting new friends — the list goes on and on) but understand that I need to feel guided and ready to do so.
Thanks for ur honesty and assistance! :)
After listening to the information the penny dropped... I realised that I have been spell casting for year's, just didn't have an explanation for it..... My ears became strangely warm as I listened and I felt the energy around me introduce itself.. Thankyou so much, I look forward to exploring the craft......
thank you so much!!!!!
Hello,
The thing is my brother is the one who recommended to do witchery and I was into it before he said anything about it, but i'm not a very pay-attention girl I get distracted easily, and my mind wonders to different things. Every time I try to meditate I just focus on something else. I'm trying to keep learning about witchery and of course i'm patient with it I just can't focus and it really bothers me that i'm like that. So I hope anyone has any recommendations to help me or for me to try, anything would help.
Thank you!

Hello sage. I have a question and if u answer it is gonna make me really happy (please answer) I used to practice on telekinesis. There is a thing called psiwheel, u know u pin a needle on an eraser and put a piece of paper on it to make it move by ur brain power. Well one day i managed to move the needle instead of the paper. The needle came out of the eraser and i did it two times. Back then i could make it wind when i was outside. But then i just lost it. I was believing in it because of the needle stuff but i stopped to believe in myself that i can do stuff like that. So, is there anything i can do to get that thing back?

Hi I'm v, I need help but I'm scared I been looking for a Wicca teacher
Thanks so much for your help. New to this thanks.
Hi, I've been interested in magic / witchcraft ever since I was a little girl. I even tried to learn and practice by myself. But as I got older I put aside those things to focus on growing up. I've had a very rough life, and needless to say most of it was because it involved toxic people. I am now 18, and I wish to relearn magic. I have plans to rid my life of all these bad people and feelings. So I ask, what kind of banishing spells would you recommend for someone who hasn't trained in forever, and needs it as quick as possible. I also ask, what kind of magic would you have a new witch train in, candel magic, herb magic, Crystal magic? And what are some sigils to use for witch magic?

Hi Ayra... spells are something a Witch designs depending on his/her need. You could cast spells to bring memories to the surface, another way to do that is with trance/meditation/hypnosis. I would probably combine multiple ways. You could try a charm bag or a Witch's ladder spell using herbs/crystals that are conducive to memories... I particularly recommend the plant rosemary. If you want to use dreams to try and recall memories, try making a pillow.
Some components I recommend using is rosemary, lavender and something to stimulate psychic visions like anise or bay leaf or mugwort. Hematite and pyrite are also good crystals/minerals to include.
You could get a mugwort tea, too, from a health food store and make a potion... bathe in it, drink it before meditation/bed time, etc., whenever you are going to try and recall your memories.
Best of luck to you.

I mean no harm but is there any easy spell to just rid of any doubt in my mind and can you tell me what the result would look like eg. A temporary blindness illusion spell?

Hi Sue; yes, both men and women are Witches. There's no minimum age per say-- a child born into a magical family is going to grow up learning certain things (how to concentrate, how to sense energy, etc.) from the time they are young. For those not growing up in a magical family it can take more time to learn, and this might require being old enough to read and understand books and articles on the topic.
Can men be witches? How old should somebody be to begin? Is there a minimum age?
thank you

It would be so nice to cure the world's problems with a simple spell; but magic is part of nature, and nature requires balance. Unfortunately the world will never be a perfect place, it's all part of the package. The trick is learning to bring the good and love out from within, and let that rule you, instead of more negative emotions that do more harm than good.
We can do magic to help improve things, to boost our efforts to make improvements, but we can't just make everything bad disappear unfortunately. The things that upset us comes with the territory, it's just part of having feelings.
Easiest way to summon an animal is to do what I did: go to the pound & adopt ;o)

Hi Kimiya; anyone of any religion can practice Witchcraft (well, if they think their religion allows it).
Witchcraft works because you study and practice it, not because of your religion.
Wicca is a Pagan religion, it is a different religion than Christianity or Islam.

Hi John; Nope. Same techniques, same principles.

Could be a lot of reasons spells don't work. For one thing, do you understand why you're writing things down? Why are you using the symbol of the pentagon? Why fold it 3 times? If you don't understand why you're doing what you're doing, it's less likely to work.
Also, why three things? Three separate things should be taken care of in three separate spells.
Have you spent much time meditating, learning to focus on your desires? Are you focusing on them the right way? Do you know the right way?
There is more to spells than just writing on papers or lighting candles, so if you're having trouble you might want to keep studying. It takes time to learn.
Good luck to you ;o)

Hi Edgar; do you mean transform into them or take on their likeness somehow? I've never heard of things like that outside of fiction. If I'm mistaken and you mean something else, let me know.

Hi I'm 13 and I would love to learn everything there is about the craft that I love and respect so very much. I haven't much training but I'm willing to do whatever it take to be a witch. I've thought about this a lot and I'm ready to be the best witch possible even if I'm not a blood witch. Can you please help me?
Ma'am Im a 15 years old boy.Can I use any spell to make this world good and full of love.And can I summon an animal who will always be my best friend and be with me forever. I love animals.
Hello, i dont know if you still are actually on this, i have always been very spiritual because of my family. i would like to talk privately with you in email but i cannot seem to find your email. so if you would please let me know
I'm very interested in learn everything , meditation, relaxation from the stress of the outer world.. leaving my home environment is often a hard thing for me...I'm a peace with nature every camping trip I take or a walk to in the woods I all way bring a peace of nature home and add it to my garden or home ,could be rocks ,drift wood, anything that catches my fancy and brings me peace.... I often wonder why I 'm so unsettled with people , not trusting..I work in a environment of may people , stress, and bullying from management...Tuesday January 16 I have a meeting and feel I'm going to experienc bullying again how can I pretect myself, calm my self ...can i keep harm and native people at bay.
Hi this is in answer to kimiya66, ...wicca is its own celebrated religion, however you Dont have to be wiccan to practice witchcraft, you can belong to any religion or non at all, depending on your beliefs,....so yes you can be Muslim and still practice witchcraft, hope this helps.
Hi, i want to know for doing witchcrafts & wicca i have to be Christian? Cuz im Muslim and i want to know doing witchcafts and wiccas will work for me or not???what should i do?
Does anyone know how to do a boundary spell that can hold people to one location?
Hi, McKenzie, I have a question....I recently acquired a rose quartz tumblestone,...when I held it I immediately had a strange feeling, it was a good, light hearted feeling, and I actually felt a connection with that particular crystal quite strongly, however...since the other day, I decided to cleanse it, only with running water, and picturing a white light,....I then proceeded to charge it ,by leaving it on my windowsill at night, last night,...but since I woke, I've tried spending time with the crystal, tried programming it, but I Dont get that good,strong feeling or connection now, or I feel now is a slight withdrawing, its as if the crystal is asleep,.... It may sound strange but that's how I feel I can explain it,.....is this normal crystal behaviour?.
Hi, this is a reply to Kacie, you said you try to draw yourself away from things like this only to end up here again,...I can say this is also true for me, the thing is you are fighting against your heart, if you feel connected in anyway to this life, then you need to stop fighting it, and just go where it takes you,....clearly its calling to you.
I hope this helps,
Im not really sure what is going on with me, I try to draw myself away from these websites but I always end up here again, but the problem is is that I am young, most of you people are at least 18+ I’m obssesed with the woods, lucky charms crystals, stars and my star sign but I am scared and easily frightened of things so I am confused what do I do? My family would laugh at me if I told them these things, so I am pretty sure they have no history on witches??
is there different things to learn to be a male witch ?
I wrote 3 things that i want in a paper and make a pentagon then i fold it 3 times... But it does not work why?
Hello I was interested rain learning magic so I can learn how to protect my love ones.
Hello is it possible to impersonate another person??
Mackenzie, could you let me know of any books I could check out the library. At the moment I'm reading a book called everything you need to know about paganism, and though it does cover witchcraft , it doesn't seem to go deep.
i want to be a true magician

Hi- I have a question. My mother told me “gifts” ran in our family. Since I was little I could find lost things that others couldn’t. My mother joked about my gift. I can also hear or dream things about my loved ones that come true... little unimportant things.
I also get overwelmed by places— I recognized it as spirits today. If I feel something in a place and ask if something has happened there —100% of the time I will be told they have a spirit! This part of my gifts terrifies me. I don’t want to “see dead people”.
My question is if I open up to one part of my gifts will I be more open to the “other side”. My daughter is also gifted and wants to learn more. —-I want to help her but I am nervous.
Any advise?

Hi! I just wanted to say you are amazing! Can there be teen witches and could you tell us more about niches and how we use them.Im having a hard time focusing when I meditate and I know I still have a long way to go wish me luck
On a new moon i wrote down my desires of what I want to achieve but burn the paper with a stick lighter not with a candle and sent ashes on its way outside. Will it work? Thank you for your help

Hi; no Wizard, if you read my other articles, there are no such things as fireballs shooting out of your hands or poofing things into existence like in movies.
I can't help you with anything like that; real magic is a spiritual art rooted in nature and psychology.

Hi Eosphorus; absolutely. When it comes down to it, it's all about the mind and projecting the will through energy. Most people need time to learn to do this, and ritual/props/etc. help them focus. But you can certainly just do all the work in your mind, and many people do. Sometimes without even knowing it!
Thanks for such a great article. But I need some help. Can you please tell me where can I find various spells on internet. And is there any spell by which I can produce fireballs from my hand. If there is any please provide me with it. And I also want to know if I am able to cast spells without using anything, i.e. I just use my mind and the energy within it. Thanks!
I want to know if I'm able to cast a spell without a certain procedure. For example,casting a spell with only the energy within my mind. Am i able to have this kind of ability and take control with only my mind???please relpy as soon as possible
