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 2024. 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, so "Wish honestly, then conjure boldly."
This Week's Spell is
Coping With the Holidays
​
It’s that time of years when we get frazzled with cooking, shopping, and a dozen different things that seem to need to be done immediately, and there’s no time to relax. Here’s a spell to keep you from all the craziness of the season and get a bit of much-needed time for yourself.
You will need:
Find a place in the house where you won’t be disturbed
Light a stick of your favorite incense, or anoint yourself with your favorite perfume
​
Sit quietly, take 3 deep cleansing breaths to relax your body, then repeat the following incantation:
Holiday stress, I banish thee
You’ll never get the best of me
I’ll go about what needs to be done
By tackling the chores one by one
And when I manage all the deleatings
I’ll sit down, relax, and enjoy season’s greetings
