Writing Your Own Spells

Spell Outline

Writing your own spells is the most effective way to do magick. There is no trick to it, as long as you are focused and have the right cause you should do fine. Here's the basic outline of a spell to help you:
Preparation - When you choose the time/day/colors/words that you'll say/etc. Basically plain out what you will do and read it over a few times to get familar with it.
Cleanse - This is to focus yourself. You could have a special bath, or more easily just meditatin to clear your mind. To clear the space burn herbs/incense or use your magickal broom.
Cast The Circle - There are loads of ways to cast a circle, so do some research, but one way is: You can use objects on the ground, candles, stones, flowers, herbs, etc, (in correspondence to your spell) You don't have to but it helps if you are a beginner. Then focus and imagine energy from your hands going into the circle. Sometimes people use mist/bubbles/light filling the circle. Once the energy is flowing work clockwise, still thinking about the mist filling the space. Once the circle is cast, shut off the energy by just shaking your hands.
Calling Quarters - After the cirlce is cast you can call quarters. This is when you invite beings to watch and protect your spell. Quarters can be faeries, angels, or elements. Do a little research to use what you would like. I usually go for the elements. You then face east and say: 'To the East I invite the powers of Air' Hold out your hands and feel the energy of the element flowing into you. You could also make up a line after that to go with it: 'To carry my message of love on it's winds' etc. Go around doing that for each compass point, east, south, west and north.
Invocation of the Divine - This is where you basically call spirits/gods to help you. I usually just use quarters but do some research to find out more.
Purpose - Tell the Divine why you have called them, what you wish to achieve in this spell.
Magick - Raise the energy through chanting/drumming this is when you can use any stones/herbs/candles to help you. I usually chant with my eyes closed in deep meditation; I often feel a burst of energy at the peak which is when you need to ground your energy.
Food - have something to eat and drink to help restore your energy.
Thank the divine / quarters (I usually say 'I thank thee air for granting this')
Close the circle - Draw back the energy and do the opposite of what yo did before.
