Spell of the Week

​
There are lots of practical uses for magick spells in our lives, and they don't requite ritualistic pomp and circumstance, apothacary drawers full of eye of newt or even a magic wand. You don't have to be a card carrying, broom riding, cauldron stirring witch either. A little practical knowledge, common sense and good intentions is all it takes to cast a successful spell.
Each week I'll be posting a spell from my Spell Books., Workplace Spells, Animal Spells And Magick, and some new spells I'm creating for my upcoming grimoire that will be released in the Fall of 2025. They are simple yet effective spells that are easy to do with just a few practical ingredients or tools that you probably already have around the house, or easy to find.
I learned early on that magick affects the world around you, so be very careful what you ask for. None of my spells are crafted to do harm to anyone, but they do get the job done. Intent is the key to make a spell work. Visualize what you want, and cast the spell knowing that it is going to work. Any doubt in your mind and it won't work.
The Spell of the Week Is
Flying High Wishing Spell
​
​​
Sometimes we need to go directly to the source to get our wishes granted. All it takes is a balloon to carry your wish up in the ethers.
You Will Need
A balloon
Pen and paper
String
Blow up the balloon, then write your wish and tie it to the balloon with the string. Go to a quiet place out of doors where the balloon won’t get tangled in wires or trees.
Before you let the balloon go up, up and away, repeat this incantation:
Take this request to the heavens so high
And once up there, they’ll soon comply
So fly away with my desire
And ask that it soon transpire
So Mote It Be
Let go of the balloon and watch it fly away.
Note: Try and get the color balloon that coincides with your wish. Here’s a few colors to choose from:
​
Blue: Trustworthiness, peace, calm, serenity, stability
Red: Love, energy, passion, danger, aggression
Yellow: Happiness, energy, optimism, fear
Green: Nature, growth, harmony, peace
Orange: Energy, enthusiasm, creativity
Purple: Royalty, power, mystery
Black: Mourning, death, darkness, sophistication, luxury
Turquoise: Calmness, creativity, wisdom, good fortune
Pink: Femininity, love, playfulness, tranquility
Brown: Nature, warmth, comfort, reliability, simplicity, strength, health
Gray: Neutrality, sophistication, formality, restraint, tranquility
White: Simplicity, purity, innocence, cleanliness
