Sator Spell


Ah the sator spell. One of the first spells I've ever heard of. I can't even remember where I picked it up. I think it was in one of those "getting to know Witchcraft" books that your old highschool library had. I know I've messed things up thru the years over what this spell actuall does. It's really more of a charm/talisman thing.

Here goes. Take a small square of paper and write the following on it:

S A T O R
A R E P O
T E N E T
O P E R A
R O T A S

Now from what I remember, carrying this paper around with you will make you the envy of others....not in a bad/evil way but in a nice way. I use this spell for self-confidence. I think about feeling beautiful or confident or strong while I write the letters down. Then I carry it in my pocket until I don't need it anymore.

I used to make one, put all the energy I could muster into it and leave it on my chair at school. Kind of a deed of the day for Witches. I'm sure whoever sat down just tossed it to the floor, but you never know.

Good luck on this one, I really like it. I hope it works for you.



To Beckon a person To you

Start off by visualizing the person clearly in your mind...feel them, smell them, see them, taste them. Recite the following:

"If you are turning towards me
Know I turn also to you
and come to me in love

If you are thinking of me
Know that I think also of you
and come to me in love

If you are saying my name
Know that I say your name and call you to me
and come to me in love."

Say the person's name three times. Repeat the spell until it feels perfect.

Water Scrying Spell

This spell can be used to neutralize the power of those who intend to hurt your reputation, in any way pose a threat to your security, or who want to do you physical harm.
 
This is a method that we got from our grandparents, that really works.
 
Take a clear glass and fill with clean water. Set it on a dresser in front of a mirror, on top of a Bible. Then take a Lighted Kerosene lamp and put it between the water and the mirror. Make the glass of water high enough where the flame can be seen through the water. Sit with your back to the water, and with a small mirror look over your left shoulder at the reflection of the glass of water in the hand mirror. Sit and be still and very quiet for a few minutes and you will start to see images in the glass in the reflection.

Witches' Hair Tip

Brittish lore claims that a witch's power is multiplied by letting down his or her hair during a spell. Try releasing your hair (from a bun, braid or even a pony-tail) at the same time you are releasing your energy/goal in your spell.

Truth spell

Chant while lighting a candle ( any color ) once a day for 7 days. Before maybe After the 7th day the truth will come to you

I see the truth,
I know the way,
I cast the spell in every way,
By the power of three,
I conjure thee,
to give thy truth unto me,
by the 7th day.



Truth Revealed Spell

Moon and tide save help me now,
I seek the truth here not yet found,
For underneath the fog there lies,
New possibilities for I,
So let this night be unlike others,
And let the noble show their colors,
And let the meek and cowards run,
For now the moon seeks out her sun,
And by the power that is three,
So as I will it, so mote it be.


Truth Spell

Waxing moon - a spell to inspire honesty.
You will need:
A tall, deep-blue candle
peony or lavender oil
parchment (or paper if unavailable)

On a waxing moon, anoint the candle with the fragrance of lavender or peony
by the purest moonlight. By this same moonlight - and this light only - inscribe the name of your lover on parchment. Still by moonlight, use the name-paper as a taper to light the candle. Place the candle upon a fireproof surface, away from a window or curtain, and rest while the candle burns low. As you lay down your head that night, ask that your love be open and honest of his actions; ask that he leave off flirtation and reveal true feelings for you if he has them. Before a week has passed you will have a sign of his true regard.



The Rainbow Spell For Happiness And Joy

You will need:
7 candles, 7 ribbons and 7 flowers, in each case one in each color of the
rainbow

The rainbow colors also represent the old planets of the Zodiac:
red for Mars,
orange for sun,
yellow for Moon,
green for Mercury,
blue for Venus,
indigo for Jupiter
violet for Saturn.
Tie each candle at the base with its matching colored ribbon. In each of the seven rooms in your house, or in seven places in one room if you live somewhere smaller, place one candle with its matching flower in a stem vase, to make a simple yet colorful altar. Open all the windows and ask for nature's blessings: promise to honor nature more attentively in future, by leaving out crumbs for the birds, growing more plants and flowers, not killing creatures who come inside and by recycling as much as you can for the sake or the environment. Promise, too, to try to smile more and not to criticize others too much. Light your candles in the order of the rainbow colors (as above) and feel the color of each light burning into you. Sit in the middle of the room (or house) and surround yourself mentally with the swirling light of every color. After one hour, extinguish the candles and untie the ribbons, then wind them loosely together into a braid. Repeat this procedure for six more nights, undoing the ribbons from the braid and retying then each time. At the end of the week, when the flowers will have wilted and the candles burnt down, take the ribbons and weave them into a tidy braid. This will become your most powerful talisman, and will always attract rainbow colors into your life. Recharge the braid at an open window on one day of every month, and always keep it in a special place.



Anxiety - Ritual to Calm & Center

For those who feel nervous when they are at home alone, this charm will disperse your foreboding. If outside influences stay with you indoors, or you are a nervous person, this charm may also be useful in pinpointing the reason for your anxiety. If there is an object in the home that upsets you, you can remove it. Sometimes there is no obvious reason for hidden fears; they are just a reaction to the unknown. If the chosen oils do not appeal to you, try one or a blend of the following: bergamot, clary sage, frankincense, juniper berry, melissa, neroli, rose otto, or ylang ylang.

Ingredients
A White Candle
Lavender and Chamomile Oil
Agate Crystal

Perform this with a waning moon at the time of day when you feel most
uneasy.
Turn on all the lights in the house even if it is daylight.
Anoint the candle with our oils and light it.
Place the candle as near as you can to the center of your home.
Sit beside it, holding the crystal in your hands. Feel the light and aroma from the candle passing into your body and filling it.
Open all the doors and windows. Working clockwise around your home, go to each room and, with the crystal in your outstretched hand, draw out all the negative energy.
Shake it out of the window in each room and release the negative spirits. Finish your ritual at the main entrance of the house, walking out backward and turning three times before shaking the crystal in the air to complete the ritual. Wash the crystal and keep it safe.


Yule Fire Spell

On the darkest night of the year, gather together three dried leaves of holly and pulverize them into powder. On a clean, four-inch by four-inch piece of parchment paper, write a single word in red ink that represents what quality or trait you would like to be born within yourself along with the newborn Yule Sun. Sprinkle the holly
powder into the center of the paper and twist the whole thing closed with the holly powder inside. Light the wick of a red candle, and from this flame, light the holly-filled paper on fire. As it burns, see your wish fulfilled. The spell is done. Timothy Roderick (as published in the Llewellyn Witches' Calendar 1998)


Study Spell

Use a yellow candle (intelligence, accelerated learning, memory, and all
that other good stuff) and cleansed, consecrated, and empowered quartz....with the quartz you would scratch therune appropriate to your need...

I use the order rune (three squares inside of each other) ....if you're not sure of the appropriate rune, just draw a symbol that signifies your need.

As you scratch the symbol you have to visualize your need. You have to see
in your mind you've already passed the exam... or you passed the class....
See yourself studying, concentrating, focusing.... You have to really feel
and see this is going to happen. Now you would place the candle in a
holder... Put the crystal near the candle and light the wick... leave the
candle to burn and again visualize...

carried around with you....

Moving Out chant

(From Yasmine Galenorn's "Embracing the Moon")

For when you move out of a home or a room. When everything is out of the house or room, and after you've finished cleaning up the space, cast a widdershins circle using your hand through the entire house (or room) saying:
So now I go, my energy goes with me.
I disengage myself and all of my belongings from this space.
I release my hold on this space and leave it cleansed and renewed for
those who will follow.
Blessed be.

Smudge the every room and let the smoke dissipate out the windows. Leave
three pennies on a windowsill to leave hopes of prosperity for the new
tenants. Once outside, break the broom and throw it away. Crumble the
smudge stick and bury it in the earth or throw it into a moving body of water.



A spell for wish-magick

You will need:
a blue seven knob candle
myrrh oil
a consecrated athame


Write your wish on each of the seven knobs of the candle.
Anointing the candle with the myrrh oil and say:

I consecrate and bless this candle
In the divine name of the goddess.
Let all negativity and hindrance
Be cast forth hencefrom.


Pick up your athame with your right hand. Place the flat side of the blade on top of the candle and envision magickal energy as a white light flowing from your body through the athame and into the candle. When you begin to actually feel the energy flowing say:

I charge thee now
With magickal power
In the divine name of the goddess

Charge the candle for at least 5 minutes, return the athame to the altar, and then light the top knob of the wish-candle. say the following incantation 7 times:

Seven Magick knobs of blue
Make this wish of mine come true.

As the candle burns, concentrate upon the thing you desire and visualize yourself already in possession of it. Extinguish the candle after the first knob has burned down and repeat the entire spell for the next six nights in a row, burning only knob of the candle each time.



To dream of a certain person, try this ritual

Ask yourself..
Who do you want to dream of?
Why? (Important!)

This working is really quite simple. Gather together some items related to the person. Anything you can get will be fine, but some ideas are... a lock of hair, article of clothing, an item they dropped or left behind, a photograph or a drawing, something they wrote. Place the items underneath or next to your bed (or better yet, under your pillow, if they're small objects). Before going to sleep,
burn frankincense, bay leaves, dried rose petals, or mugwort in your room. Before you go to sleep, meditate on the person for a while. What they look like, how they act, what you like about them. Then get comfortable and be ready for sweet dreams!



To Change Sorrow to Joy

This ritual can be commenced any day and should be preformed for nine consecutive days.
Light a white candle and say this spell three times:

If I could not See Beyond This Tragedy
Then a Fool I would Truly Be
Thank God a Fool I am Not
Sincerely I can Say
That without this Situation
True Impoverishment
I would Experience
Within the Cosmic Time Scale

Close your eyes for a moment and dwell on what you have just said, and then continue

Sorrow to Joy is an Expression

Rejoice I Shall
For only those who Suffer
Can enter Thy Kingdom.

And Makes All Anew
Forgive Me So that I May
Forgive Myself
So that I May live

"Away from me the thoughts of day, away from me my worried ways."
Then change your direction to clockwise, altering the incantation to:

"When Luna smiles through night's sky, so sleep will come to tired eyes. No more to wake, no more to roam, rest is welcome in my home."

As with the last spell, repeat this last phrase as you put your head on the
pillow every night.



A Fire Scrying Chant

*Before doing this one, it helps to me clear my third eye with the fire.
I do this by visualizing and feeling the power and heat of the flame
being absorbed by my third eye, then thanking the flame for lending me
it's power. But do what ever feels best for you.*

When you wish to contact your psychic mind: sit before a fire, well out
of range from flying sparks. Close your eyes for a moment or so. Relax.
Still your consciousness. Then open your eyes.

Look directly into the flames. Don't strain your eyes, blink normally.
Breathe deeply. When you're at peace, say these or similar words in a
whispered voice:

Blazing fire
As you dance,
Give me now the
Secret glance.
Call upon my
Second sight;
Make me psychic
With your light.
Blazing fire
Shining bright,
Give me now the
Second sight.

Repeat until your eyelids grow heavy. Divine the future within the
fire's restless flames.

Mother Divine,

Give me a sign.



Chant To Bring The Rains

Grant the wish I chant to thee:

Spare me from the wrathful sun.
As I will it, so let it be done!


A Wicca Ball or Witches Ball

INSTRUCTIONS:
Take an ordinary silver Christmas tree ornament (ball) and remove the
top. Cut lengths of thread (they recommend size 30 crochet cotton,
though any kind will do) about 1 to 1 1/2 inches long. The whole
time you are cutting the threads, concentrate on protecting you and
your home. Think only pleasant thoughts. It helps to have a friend
over to talk happily as you make the Wicca Ball. Fill the ball until
it is better than 1/2 full of threads. Pour a few drops of your
favorite oil into the ball and replace the top. Seal it closed with
hot glue or wax. Hang the ball in a window by the door that you use
as a main entrance to your home. As you hang the ball, thank the
Goddess (or your personal Deity) and ask that he/she protect your
home from all negativity and harm.



Tarot card blessing


This is a blessing to say when you're shuffling the Tarot cards, to
make the reading work out better, and to see the meanings of the
cards more clearly:

"Silver Moonlight, and Sunlight of Gold,
Light my way clearly as the cards unfold.
Show me the subconscious
and secrets untold.
Show me what the past, the present,
and the future doth hold.
Let me see clearly the cards' meanings,
be they bright and warm, or dark and cold.
God and Goddess be with me, and bless me
as the cards unfold.
So mote it be!"


Power Raising Spell
by Elizabeth Barrette

Often, practitioners of magic need to raise power. You may want to do this inside a cast circle during a ritual, or while meditating or walking outside. It requires no props or material components, and no special preparation. It is simply an entreaty to the Gods of the universe at large to dispense power in your direction. Repeat this
simple chant over and over again until you have as much energy as you need:

"Give me, O give me,
A touch of magick,
A kiss of magick,
The bliss of magick!"

You can use this spell to increase the general amount of magic in your life, but be careful what you wish for, because you're likely to get it!

Pregnancy spell

Repeat to each direction (east, west, etc.)

"To you my child, my body is open,
To you my child, my mind is open.
To you my child, my heart is open.
By Earth, Fire, Wind, and Sea,
Into my arms you will be."



Creativity


Take a white candle and set it in the middle of a darkened room. Put by it the artifacts of your creativity. A fountain pen, if you're a writer; a sheet of music if you're a musician or singer. Then put your picture close to it. Concentrate on your picture, light the candle, and say the following chant:

"Creativity flow from me,
Come to me in the quiet of the night.
Flow from my fingertips (or lips)
And make me brilliant.
Let me write (or sing or play) with inspiration.
Creativity flow from me.
Come from God and set me free."

Don't forget to conjure a huge amount of love in your heart. Let the image of yourself being creative flow to your head, and let the emotion of love overwhelm you there. Love is the wellspring of all creativity, and you must be a loving
person to be creative.


Granting a Wish (Knight of Wands) Spell

Write your wish on a piece of paper, and recite over a candle:

"By the powers of magick might,
May my wish be granted.
When the candle sheds its gleam
At the mystic hour,
Let fulfillment of my dream
Gather secret power.
Flame of magick, bright thy burn.
Spirit of fire, let the Wheel of Fortune turn
Grant me my desire!
One, two, three - so shall it be!"
Increase Gas Mileage (yea!)

To increase gas mileage, empower a quartz crystal with the following chant and carry it in your vehicle:

"Stone of perfect energy
To mileage bring efficiency.
Let my carbs work like a top-
No backfire, sputter, snap, or pop."
from Dorothy Morrison's Everyday Magic book

 


Full Moon Wishing

Take 9 pennies outside during the Full Moon. Face the Moon and let her light shine upon you. Open your arms as if to embrace the Moon, and make your request. Then say:

"You have said that when You're round,
Prayers are answered, chains unbound.
You promise that by the light of You,
All one's wishes shall come true."

Toss the pennies in her direction and say:

"Please take this token of my love,
As Your silver light shines from above.
Please bring me what I ask of You,
By darkest night and morning dew."

Thank the Moon and leave.



Land Blessing Spell

Take a wand fashioned from apple wood, and walk the land with it, moving clockwise, as you say:

"Mother earth, grow lush and green.
Let all that dwells in this soil be fertile and yield abundantly."

Repeat the incantation until you've covered the area in one complete circuit.
