Ground and Center before all Magickal Work: to avoid depleting personal energy levels by augmenting internal energies.

Ground again after all Magickal Work: To avoid overload of personal energy levels by draining out the excess energies.

Change another’s Spell slightly so it is Yours: to make the energy generated recognize it connects to work with you specifically.
