Binding Spells: A Commonsense Guideline

Binding Spells: A Commonsense Guideline

If you don’t like the idea of using poppets and have decided to work a binding, and you have a handle on your emotions, then here are some commonsense guidelines that I suggest you follow:

* Bindings are best performed on a Saturday.

* Work the binding at sunset and you pull into the spell the closing energies of not only the day, but of the entire week.

* Work with black candles; they coordinate with Saturn’s energies and they are the classic magickal color for this type of witchery.

Finally, to be crystal clear, a binding is the act of psychically restraining a harmful person or criminal so that their actions cannot harm anyone else. The goddess to call on is Hecate, and she is a mighty magickal force. Consider your words and actions carefully when you call on her. How you choose to work a binding is up to you. At this point, I suggest that you take a moment and draft out your binding spell on paper. Go carefully, and remember to harm none.

You may experience some dramatic special effects when working with Hecate. Don’t be taken aback if the wind picks up….if you candles flicker and snap…..or if you begin to notice barking or howling dogs. The animals sense when Hecate is near. Yes, we have gotten very serious all of a sudden. That’s because a binding is a serious matter. Surprised? Don’t be. Just because I tend to look at things from a humorous perspective doesn’t mean I am not serious when the situation calls for it.

This invocation includes some of the correspondences for Hecate. If you choose, you can add these to your spellwork. (This would also be a fine addition to the opening of poppet magick). A general invocation for Hecate follows.

Binding and Cursing Spells c2015

Binding and Cursing Spells

 

Binding and cursing are often frowned upon in magickal circles. Many people like to believe they’ve been bound or cursed, but the truth is that very few people can do a decent binding or curse and those who can, even fewer would bother.

In binding, the idea is to prevent another person from doing something. Binding them from doing harm is a popular concept thanks to the 1996 movie The Craft. Binding someone to prevent them from telling a secret is another. It seems simple enough and well-intentioned too. However you must not forget that you will be bound along with them as you are the channel for the magic. You must be absolutely certain that you are right. There can be no doubt. The love spells that focus on a particular person are a binding. You want that one person, so you do a spell to make him or her come to you and love you. Then you’re stuck with them. They might be a total prat, might not be all that they seemed, or as my friend found, they might be violent and abusive. Unfortunately because of your binding, you’ve bound them to you and it’s not that easy to get rid of them.

For best results, a personal link is required for a successful binding. A photograph will suffice but hair, blood, nail clippings, clothing or a signed document work better. A doll or poppet can be stuffed with these, along with herbs or other materials. Baptise the doll with their name, every name for that person that you might know— full name, nicknames, online alter-egos, as many ways of clearly identifying that person that you can come up with. Then bind them with anything you desire; cord, chain, or even a piece of barbed wire. After they’re bound, seal it and deal with it as you will.

Paper cutout figures can work just as well. Write the person’s name in the middle and what you are binding them from and fold it up tightly. It can be secured with paperclips if you like.

Cursing is ill-wishing someone. Again, there is a chance that you will suffer alongside them, so be very careful before trying this. In the past, I have been somewhat creative in my cursing. I cursed someone to feel compassion for the victims of their actions. For me this wasn’t a problem, I am fairly compassionate by nature, but for him, it was a curse. Another person I’ve used this curse against committed suicide. I struggled with it for a day or two, but after thinking it through and processing things I came to the realisation that I was not responsible for her death. I wanted her to realise what she’d done and take responsibility for the damage she’d caused. How she chose to cope with that was completely on her and from what I hear, the consequences of her actions were catching up with her in other ways that were even less pleasant for her.

If you are going to curse, you first need to be sure that you mean it. You might want someone to have a nasty car crash, but if you aren’t also prepared to see them die slowly and horribly from cancer then you don’t really mean it. Even if you have the power to perform a curse of this magnitude, you need to think about a few things before you consider it. Working with dark energy is one thing. Cursing death is tantamount to murder. It’s no different from the person who chooses to use a gun, only this time your weapon is magic.

A family member of a friend was receiving death threats from someone. While she has cursed him, she has done it in such a way that the curse will only take effect if he crosses a boundary that she’s set around that family member and others that are close to him.

I’ve been accused of curses that I haven’t performed. My partner’s ex-wife believed that I was going to curse her when she started making trouble for him. In all honesty, why would I bother? She was doing it all to herself without me wasting any of my time and energy, what was the point?

Most of the time, if left to their own devices, people that you would consider binding or cursing manage to do it to themselves quite nicely. Some will suddenly realise that they’ve driven everyone away and maybe it was something they’re doing, some won’t. It’s never their fault as they’re perpetual victims. Cursing someone like this will only reinforce their mindset and behaviour. It won’t teach them a lesson so there’s no point wasting your energy.

There’s one last thing I want to say on this topic. In the Craft there is a saying, “if you can’t curse, you can’t heal”. Effectively what this means is that you need to destroy the illness in order for the healing to begin. You need to be balanced and work with both sides.

I ask you to really think about it before you bind someone else. This is one of those spells that if the Universe feels the person should not be bond it will not work. Plus, if you believe in the Law of Three/Threefold Law the consequences might not be to your liking as it could bind you from doing even the simplest spells depending on how strong your intention was to bind the other person when you cast it.

A Simple Personal Growth Spell

Ingredients:

  • A white candle
  • A glass of coconut milk
  • Two tablespoons of saffron
  • A new sponge

How it’s done:

Light the white candle and stare at the candle flame without blinking; repeat this magic formula as long as you can with your eyes open:

“Dear Universe. Give me what I want. Blessed be.”

As the candle burns out, prepare a warm bath. Pour a glass of coconut milk and two tablespoons of saffron into the water. Then immerse yourself in the water and, rubbing your skin well with a new sponge, repeat the magic formula again.

If you want to increase its potency:

This procedure can be followed to increase the effect of a spell.

We will take the herbs we will need for the ritual and put them in a wooden or mortar bowl.

We light 4 candles on each side of the bowl, a white candle on the right (it will give us protection and represents spirituality), a yellow candle on the left (to increase psychic powers), and so on for the other two sides (i.e. the top and bottom of the bowl).

To do this you need to find a quiet place and try to be alone.

Spell For Tomorrow – Apollo’s Devotional Chant for Inspiration

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY)

Apollo’s Devotional Chant for Inspiration

In Greek and Roman mythology, Apollo is a standout god, born to Zeus and Leto and twin to the huntress Artemis. Over time, Apollo and the sun god Helios started to blend in people’s minds, similar to how Artemis got linked with Selene, the moon goddess. Despite this confusion in religious circles, myths and literature always kept Apollo and Helios, as well as Artemis and Selene, separate. The Etruscans also honored him as Aplu, showing Apollo’s wide-reaching influence in ancient cultures.

Light an orange candle during this devotional.

Incense for Apollo:

Frankincense, Vanilla, Cedar.

Offerings to Apollo:

Bay leaves, Olive oil, Wine, Sunflowers, Sunflower seeds.

In Greek mythology, Apollo is one of the most important and multifaceted Olympian gods.

The ideal of the young beardless, Apollo has been variously recognized as the god of truth and prophecy; archery; medicine and healing; music, poetry, healing, and more. In later times, Apollo became partially equated with Helios, the Sun god. But Apollo and Helios remained separated beings in literary and mythological texts. In Etruscan mythology he was known as Aplu.

Invoke Apollo’s power and bring inspiration, focus, concentration and creativity to your art, your new project or work. Use this chant as a morning ritual prayer, or combine it with a spell for good luck, healing, creativity and more.

Devotional text

Come blessed healer,

Bearing a golden lyre, generative, agrarian, Oracular one,

Wild, radiant divinity, lovely one, glorious son,

Cultivator of joy, whose arrows achieve their aim, mighty archer.

You who achieve from afar, prophet, holy one,

all-seeing eye bringing the light which shines on mortals,

Golden-haired, making clear oracular utterances,

Hear me with gracious soul as I pray on behalf of mankind.

Upon the blessed earth you look from above through the dark of night.

In the restful shadow of a night filled with stars,

You clearly see the root below and you arrange and support the boundary of all:

For the origin and completion are both in your care,

The cause of the blooming of all things,

with your resonant lyre you command the axis of the heavens,

Placing all in harmony, by which, indeed, you advance to the lowest pitch,

Elsewhere to the highest, at times playing in the Dorian mode,

Tempering all the poles you keep the tribes of living creatures distinct.

Let inspiration come to me.

Support my quest for creativity.

Make my imagination unlimited.

And my mind open to new ideas as I manifest my talents.

Let me surround myself with creative people.

So I can be in touch with my creative source.

Help me release any resistance to fully expressing my creativity.

Give me the time to think, to relax and focus.

Powerful spirit, express yourself in all possible ways.

Let inspiration flow so that I can easily express myself.

My creative work fills you with joy,

And anything can be my source of inspiration.

I promise to always look out for new experiences.

To recognize and overcome my limitations.

If you eliminate all mental blockages, remove barriers,

And any habits that oppress my inspiration.

Dear Apollo, come to me.

You have mingled harmony into the share of all mortal men,

Giving each an equal measure of winter and summer,

The highest three strings in the winter, the lowest in the summer,

The Dorian mode produces the lovely and blooming spring.

Thereupon the mortals celebrate and call you lord and

Pan, the two-horned God who sends the whistling winds,

Wherefore you form and bear the seal of the entire Cosmos.

Hear, happy one, the supplicating voices of the initiates and save them.

Full Sturgeon Moon Magic Ritual (August)

Sturgeon Moon is the name of August’s Full Moon. Indigenous tribes of North America knew that in August, the giant sturgeon of the Great Lakes were most readily caught. The sturgeon is a very large, prehistoric-looking fish that has changed very little in over 100 million years. It is truly a “living fossil.”

Having entered the second half of the year, we begin to notice things that need to be removed. In your life, what habit would you like to see go the way of the dinosaurs? What is hindering you or holding you back?

Here is a simple candle-burning ritual for banishing a bad habit from your life with Magic. 🕯️

How does this spell work?

The time of the Sturgeon Moon is an ideal time for getting rid of “old dinosaurs” that continue to weigh you down. This powerful moon occurs towards the end of the Summer, signaling that all seasons must come to an end.

Black is a color that dissolves negative energies. The black candle will assist you in truly getting rid of whatever is holding you back from becoming your best Self.

When you banish something from your life, it leaves a gap in your daily routine. It is therefore essential to fill the space left by the banished behavior with a conscious intention. The strength of the Full Moon will lend power to a positive statement, to help give you the Will to create your new reality.

The best day for this ritual is a Tuesday but you can do this spell on any of the three nights in August when the Moon is full.

Before you begin, make sure you have set an intention for this ritual. It can be anything from quitting smoking / snacking / social media, to severing an unhealthy relationship. This is the time to be bold, clear, and strong in your determination.

Full Sturgeon Moon Magic Ritual

Recipe by Francisco Huanaco

  • On a strip of paper, write down the habit you wish to break.
  • Make sure there’s an adult in the room for this part. Light the paper using the candle’s flame and quickly place it in your cauldron.
  • Watch the paper burn as you chant this spell:Full Sturgeon Moon Ritual of Magic
  • Take the second strip of paper, and write a new description of yourself in the present tense. For example, “I am a non-smoker.”
  • Say the statement three times. Paste the strip of paper on your book of shadows or your journal and leave it there.
  • Everyday until the next Full Moon, repeat the statement when you wake up, making eye contact with yourself in a mirror. This will strengthen the spell daily.

Thursday Source: gypsywolf.weebly.com

Thursday is the fifth day of the week.   In the Norse languages this day is called Torsdag, honoring Thor, the god of strength, fertility, thunder, the protector and defender in war, and son of Odin.  Thor is the counterpart of Zeus (Greek), and Jupiter or Jove (Roman).  Thor, the most beloved of the great gods of northern mythology, is the only god who cannot cross from earth to heaven across the rainbow bridge, for he is so heavy and powerful that the gods fear it will break under his weight.  It was said that whenever his hammer Mjollnir, was thrown, it would produce a thunderbolt and when struck against stone, it would create lightning.

Jupiter Amulet to Attract Money

This ritual is amazing to create and consecrate an amulet to attract money.

You can wear it, hide it in a secret place that is sacred for you, or you can carry it in your pocket, your wallet, or your bag for an important meeting or if you go to bet on or invest your money in something!

Ingredients:

How to perform it:

Place the seven yellow candles around the silver coin and light them.

Light the three sandalwood incense sticks one by one, by reciting these magical words:

Jupiter, ruler of the lightning bolt and king of the gods, lead me to fortune by means of your greatness, power, and energy.”

Cover the silver coin with rice and recite this magic formula seven times:

“Jupiter, be my guide, lead me to wealth, money, success.”

Let the candles and incense sticks burn out and put the silver coin and rice inside the green cloth bag.

Keep the magic bag with you like a money-attracting amulet.

If you want to improve your chances, boost your luck, and have more money, but you don’t feel that casting a money spell on Thursday is the right call for you, don’t forget I can take the lead and help you create your dream life!

Spell for Tomorrow – Winds of Change

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY)

Winds of Change

This is more of a spell to release anger and stress, but isn’t that the first step to becoming more happy?

Your supplies:

• A windy day
• A hill
• Basil
• Patchouli

Well, it’s not mandatory that you have a hill for this, but you do need an open area outside for happiness spells like this. It does need to be windy.

Take your herbs to your chosen spot, and face away from the wind (so it’s blowing on your back). Toss the herbs in the air and visualize your problems being blown away.

Repeat the following:

May the winds take my pain
Make me happy once again

Then turn around and face the wind. Say:

May the winds bring joy to me
So that happy I will be

Spell For Wednesday – Happiness Blooms

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY)

Happiness Blooms

This is a spell that is excellent for well-being. It will bring positive energy into your life, and heal emotional wounds.

You will need:

– Lilac oil/jasmine oil.
– A fresh flower (any type will do).
– One blank sheet of paper and a pencil.
– A candle that is yellow.
– A container that is heat-proof.

Steps:

– Light your candle, and using your sheet of paper and a pencil, write down three things about your life that are making you unhappy. Then burn the sheet of paper in the flame of the candle.
– Place a dab or two of oil on your fresh flower and breathe in deeply. Envision that the problems you have are melting away, just like the sheet of paper you burned in the flame of your candle. Replace each worry and care with the joy and purity of the flower. Let all stress drift away from you.
– Set the flower in your container, along with the ash of the paper, and place this on your altar. Leave it there as a reminder that you have a lot to be happy about.

(One Person’s View Point) 16 Common Witchcraft Spell Casting Essentials

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY COROSPONDENCES AND SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER)

A list of 16 Common Witchcraft Spell Casting Essentials That Every Witch Should Have Source: wakeup.unhypnotize.com

These common witchcraft spell casting essentials are not listed in any particular order. They are listed in the order in which they came to me for the purpose of writing this article.

These are not the only common witchcraft spell casting essentials, however, they are some of the ones that I feel are the main ones.

THE most important witchcraft spell casting essential is intent. Without intent, you have nothing but words and actions, and not really a spell cast at all.

In no particular order, a list of Common Witchcraft Spell Casting Essentials

1. Salt

Used for cleansing and banishing. It is also used for protection during cleansing and banishing spells. Salt is a natural antiseptic. Salt is commonly used for circles for standing or sitting in while casting. It also ensures a clean spell.

2. Broom

Brooms are highly symbolic. Brooms symbolize the sweeping away of anything unwanted. They are used physically, as well as symbolically. You would use a broom to physically sweep away in a cleansing spell, banishing spell, also in some protection spells (ones that would rid unwanted energy from your home to keep it out).

3. Candles

Candles are used for focus and mood. Candles should be readily available in as many colors as you can get a hold of. Different colored candles hold symbolism for a variety of spells. Colors are chosen based on the nature of the spell and what feels right. White can be substituted for any color in the absence of the chosen color.

For example, some people like to use the color Red for love spells, or the colors Green or Gold for money spells, or Blue for healing spells, etc.

You can choose what colors feel right for you for any spell of your choosing. You do not have to go with the commonly used color associations if you feel another color will work better for you in a certain spell or ritual.

4. Crystals and Stones…

5. Incense…

6. Anointing Oils and Essential Oils…

7. Silence…

8. Isolation…

9. Book of Shadows (Spell Book)…

10. Intent…

11. Focus…

12. Confidence…

13. Altar…

14. Herbs and Flowers…

15. Cauldron…

16. Instinct…

This is not a complete list of everything that you will ever need or that you will ever use in your spells and rituals, and it is not meant to be. It is simply a list of some of the most common witchcraft spell casting essentials that are important to ensure a great spell. You don’t need all of these things for each spell. You want to use any combination of the essentials (and anything else that you feel is necessary) in each individual spell.

Spell for Tomorrow – Witchcraft Spells for Strength

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY)

Witchcraft Spells for Strength

Strength and power comes to those who use these spells. Strength is not only physical strength but also mental and magical.
When casting these spells, the target of the spell becomes stronger for a short period of time. These spells can not be reversed by magic but will wear off over time. Unlike other spells which wear off over time, the strength of the caster does not determine how long the spell lasts, but more the effect of how strong the target becomes.

Quickly clear your mind and say this. It will increase your physical strength.
“Strength of Day,
Strength of Night,
Give me strength,
Beyond my sight.”
This is a fairly simple spell, and of course you should change it according to your tastes.
–1 white candle (probably the bigger the better) –mirror
The candle should be cleansed before you begin, and could be infused with white energy,
the energy of love and strength. Meditate upon your intentions before you begin. why do
you need to empower yourself? Is it because you wish to realize the beauty within yourself,
or you wish others to see the beauty or strength you know that lies within you.
This spell also works best if you do a cleansing of yourself, whether it is bath or shower or just
visualize all of the negativity that you are carrying with you washing away.
The candle should be placed in front of the mirror, and the mirror should face you.
Light the candle. Feel the positive energy emanating from the candle.
If you worship a deity, call upon them to help you. Chant or say a prayer. This is an example:
I walk in beauty with the Goddess.
I am strength. I am beauty. I am will. I am love.
She is within me. All who see me, know Her.

Ingredients:

Purple bag or cloth Vervain Dragon’s blood resin Rosemary
Frankincense Galangal or ginger root High John oil, personal power oil or Dragon’s blood oil
1 Clear quartz crystal A personal talisman Purple Candle

Directions:

I suggest making up your own directions and spell for this one because it is a very personal pouch.
Add ingredients or objects that have meaning to you. One suggestion:
Try to sew on some small semi-precious stone chips or a stitched personal symbol.

This is a small spell I use quite often. Mostly when I’m stressing out because I can’t open
that pickle jar, the box is a little too heavy, or when the screwdriver just wont turn.

First, quickly clear your mind. Then repeat the following verse three times:Strength of day
Strength of night
Give me strength
Beyond my sight.
Now try that little chore agian it should be a lot easier than before!

Crystal-infused Moon-Water (Or Spring Water)

Essential Oils (and their relevant qualities)

25 Drops Sage – Healing, Protecting, Empowering, Cleansing and Removing Negativity

15 Drops Cedarwood – Cleansing, Healing, Purifying and Protecting. Guards against all Negative Influences and Dark Energy/Thoughts

DIRECTIONS

Add all the oils to your glass bottle.

Fill the rest of the bottle up with your Crystal-infused water.

Shake to mix all ingredients together.

Shake well prior to each use. Store in a cool, dark place out of direct sunlight.

Cleansing Yourself

Have an intention. Set it clearly in your mind. Believe it.

Lightly spray the mist on you and around you. Avoid eyes.

Cleansing Your Home

Spritz the mist as you walk around the room slowly. Focus on cleansing and clearing all negative energy. Make sure you spray in corners, behind doors and closets. Please use caution around pets.

You may also find it helpful to speak an incantation, a thought or chant during cleansing (but this is not necessary for it to work). An example for this would be:
“ Cleanse and bless this home and hearth.
Drive away all harm and fear,
So that only good may dwell in here.”

New Moon Internal Peace Spell

Ingredients:

1 Peppermint tea bag (or 1 tsp. of dried Peppermint or 15 fresh Peppermint Leaves): Cools and relaxes the mind, body, and soul.

Honey, to taste: Sweetens the spell and the drinker

White Candle: For inner peace

Cleanse: Cleanse and clear yourself and your sacred space. We recommend Palo Santo for this.

Begin Brewing: Before your circle cast, add boiling water to your peppermint and carefully take your mug of brewing potion to your sacred space.

Protect: Cast your circle of protection. (Don’t know how? We’ve got you!)

Invoke Peace: Name your white candle to be inner peace. See it glowing with white light. Begin to feel the energy of peacefulness.

Say the Spell: Chant this spell as you remove the spent leaves and add the honey to your brew. “To cool my anger, Herb of Mint. Honey, to sweeten my temperament. My attitude, right now, you will change. Toss heat of temper out of range.”

Visualize + Sip: Visualize yourself feeling peaceful, full of white light, and at ease. Continue chanting the spell as you take sips of your potion. Always end your spells with “And it harm none, so mote it be.”

Close your circle: Once you’re finished, close your circle and allow the candle to safely burn out.

Spell for Monday – Psychic Communication

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY)

Psychic Communication Spell

This spell will help increase your long-distance psychic abilities. For it, you’ll need a like-minded partner who does not live with you. Set a time when you can perform this ritual with your friend. You’ll both need a white candle and charged amethyst stone. At the designated time, each of you should light your candle and gaze at the flame. Handle the amethyst stone. Concentrate on one thought; visualize a blue-white light surrounding the candle. Then, project your thought in the direction of your partner. Limit this exercise to about ten minutes. Extinguish the candle and call your friend. Tell each other what you felt, thought, or any images you saw. Perform this ritual at least once a month and you will increase your psychic awareness. Ideally, this spell should be worked on Mondays or Wednesdays, during a waxing Moon.
