How to Write Spells + Rituals ║ Witchcraft 101

[@Bornless666]

After 25 years a a witch, I pretty much just write or say what’s in my heart and use the physical correspondences that match my intention. Never fails.

[@oreo8511]

Can you elaborate

[@sylviabriggs4087]

@@oreo8511 it’s all about intention like the law of attraction

[@twisttheleaf]

Until this video, I never actually realized that people use pre-written spells without customizing them first. My sister and I were taught spellcraft from a young age, and a part of that was creating our own spells. I guess it's kind of like cooking. Some people use a recipe and follow it strictly, some use a recipe but customize it how they wish, and others just go from scratch and make up their recipes on their own.

[@Fezza60]

I nearly used that example in my post. If I ever tried to cook with a recipe I never had everything they listed so always ended up winging it. I had a couple of disasters but it mostly worked 😉

[@aprilking3425]

Twist the Leaf great analogy!

[@chrishtamali5106]

Is your spells work?

[@madisonbaker7056]

That’s a great comparison!

[@kaylaanderson2391]

I bought tons of spellbooks when I first started a few years ago and laugh at myself for it now because back then I didn't really know anything about witchcraft and literally never used them because I'd always right my own with the little bits of info I could find. Now my favorite part of the spell is the planning for the ritual 😅

[@whiskeywitch5269]

I agree that writing and creating your own spell makes all the difference in manifesting your working. Great video as usual!

[@dreamshd1120]

Can you do a spell on singing I’m trying really singing

[@sylviabriggs4087]

@@dreamshd1120it’s not about singing more about the tone you are using , to be on the right vibration, like singing bowls

[@thessaalders9770]

About languages: I myself am Dutch, and I'm also fluent in English. Most days my partner and I speak in English to one another without even consciously deciding to do so. Sometimes I dream in English. However, when I speak for a spell, I always always always use Dutch, my native tongue. The reason is that it just strikes a deeper string withing me, and I can connect to my intention for the spell the most effectively. So, even if you have studied Latin and you do know in which order the words go: My advice is to use your native language. Of course, this is only my advice. If speaking differently is like a prop to you, to get you in the right mindset, you do you. But in my experience, it's counterproductive.

[@emmavrijburg6676]

Ik heb juist het tegenovergestelde. Alles is in engels hier dus klinkt de spreuk in nederlands raar voor mij💀

[@luziealyssa5677]

For me it is the opposite, I am fluent in Neglish but my mother tongue is German. I use whichever language works best for me with each working or sometimes even a mixture of both. I use them very intuitively so if I feel like English is the right language to use I use English

[@nurailidepaepe2783]

i speak dutch as native language too and i've tried writing in dutch but i always feel like it's silly and less serious than english.. how do you get over that?

[@naturally_roisin]

@@nurailidepaepe2783 Maybe try and watch a TV show or a few movies in Dutch, or else try talking to people online in the language. There are groups such as Amino and other online forums where you can find fellow Dutch-speakers. I'm not Dutch myself, I'm actually Irish, but I've found a couple of sites online where you can do this. I also find watching TV shows in Irish very helpful when getting over the "awkward" stage of speaking the language! I usually speak Irish when working with the Fae so it's important for me to be as un-awkward as possible haha 😊 Reading books (especially something you're familiar with - for me it was Harry Potter) can also help you to adjust. I hope this will prove useful to you!

[@placeswebreathe5814]

@@naturally_roisin they're literally dutch I think they probably already hear dutch fairly often

[@thegalacticbard]

Even when following a spell from another source, I always add my own spin to them. I can't imagine following a spell word-for-word exactly as it's written. To me, part of the magick is adding your own energy by personalizing the spell for yourself.

[@lanceltheislandwitch9779]

Omg this couldn't have came out a better time, I just started working on my first grimoire

[@aprilking3425]

The Island Witch me too!

[@ispentthenightin7721]

"Tailor it to the path of least resistance" that sums it up the best. Amazing

[@cerachaos]

I have a little book called "The pocket spell creator" and it's just correspondences. I think knowing the correspondences of all the herbs in your spice cabinet is a good way to be budget friendly. If you're in need of a spell to land a job you'll probably want the budget friendly ones.

[@crescentwalker]

I've been practicing longer than you've been alive, but I would absolutely recommend this video to any of my students. Well done, Hearth!

[@witchglitter]

I am a baby witch (have been interested/wanting to become one for years but finally getting serious) and your channel is SO helpful! Exactly what I needed and what I haven't been finding in books/other literature. You are a gem! Love from Portland, Oregon, US!

[@kaylaa2204]

2:50 I’ma just say What I do is not write them down in a BoS until they work, because one spell might not work well for me until revised for my preferences. So if I end up making a spell that doesn’t work for me in my BoS and I don’t find out it doesn’t work well until later, I then have a spell in my BoS I’ll never use in that form So instead I write it down in like a notebook or a scrap piece of paper, and then after all the revisions it needs, after it’s worked properly, then I can write it down as a working spell that I may use again one day Because I like to fill my BoSs with tons of theory, basis to build off of. So if there’s a spell in there it’s gonna be a final product, and I’d want to use a different journal for the process of making one, because otherwise by Book of Shadows would be filled with spells entirely which isn’t what I like my BoS to be about

[@SidVacant69]

My witchy adhd ass would be too lazy to that lol

[@HealthyByKiona]

oooooohhh LOVE the hair in these colors!! my favorite correspondence book is the LLewellyn's Complete it's been a GOLD Mine! I actually love to WRITE rhyming spells and they seem to be pretty powerful...the most powerful spells have also ADDED candle magick to them and not only do I dress and charge the candle, but hold it over the cauldron of the burning writing during the ritual. I did two for my cat sick with heart disease...the first I held her collar with a new talisman attached over the cauldron, the second a candle which I then burned daily near her as often as I could until it was gone...it ended up being at least a 2 week candle. I also kept the other correspondences near her when I burned it, tarot cards and gemstones. This week she was back at the vet for a one month checkup and the vet was SHOCKED how good her heart sounded and how low her blood pressure was...I received MANY messages from the Goddess after my spells for work I could in the mundane world to help her. I am very hopeful this level of effort will ring as true yet again as I am working on a love spell for myself now. It's complicated because I have someone in my life, but feel very uncertain he is who I am meant to be with as my partner any longer so working to make the spell for the best person to strengthen if it IS us or release if that's what I need to make the space for the one who IS right...is a difficult place to be. :( FANTASTIC video and thanks so much for sharing!

[@seekingvision]

Hearth this is fantastic information & so clearly expressed as well. This is exactly how I’ve been creating my own spells for over 20 years. Even though I’ve been on this path for probably longer than you have been alive 😂 I still learn a lot from you. Your videos have helped me expand my own practice in my crone years by introducing working with figure candles, doll babies & using candle remains for divination. Your mystery box is the only one I’ve ever been drawn to & last month I received my first box from you & it was just perfect 👌 I loved how I was able to use everything in the box together to create one very strong working. I’m really excited about receiving the next box. Thank you for breathing fresh life into a crones practice. Brightest of blessings to you

[@RogerioRios]

What a wise young witch you are! I´m glad I found your channel!

[@Braixen8]

I love this! I'm very much a beginner, but today I wrote my first ritual. I wanted to write one before watching a video to just test my intuition. We have a very similar way of making spells! Im sure nobody real cares, but if you do here is what i did: I felt like my cat and I had a very nice time bonding today, so I wanted to write a bonding ritual so I could use the current bonding energy that had presented itself. Since I had determined an intention, i flipped through my (very limited) BoS and decided on a few items. Rose Quartz for their unconditional love and a pink candle for their bonding and friendship properties. And salt to protect me while practicing the ritual since i was in the woods. I decided to creat the ritual as so; grab 2 special items for the two subjects. One should be burnable, the other solid. Burn the one object and then ground its ashes. sprinkle the ashes on the other object. and then return the object to the other person (or cat). its much more detailed in my BoS, but i simplified it in the comments. love you!

[@sewlolita8845]

Quick vegan erratum: agar agar is an algae-derived gelling agent which can be used similar to gelatine. I think this was supposed to be agave, a sweet liquid derived from a desert plant. Thanks for this video! Even after years of practice it can be very enlightening to look at things this systematically

“I generally never wrote words that I am going to say or rhyme in a particular way. “ And you stopped and looked to the right. That made me laugh and I had to share it with my husband. He thought it was funny as well.

The best witchkraft channel for beginners out there. Everything is so appropriately put together for starting out. 👌👌

[@MickieMuellerStudio]

Very good advice! I’ve been writing spells for books for years, but even when I was new I always tweaked and tailored the spells I found in books. I always encourage people to adjust the spells I’ve written or use them as inspiration for spells of their own. I hope lots of people try writing their own spells after watching this video! Great work!

[@JK-jl1bf]

I love writing spells. I’m currently writing my own Circle Casting and I find that when I type things out then write a copy of that version that I get inspiration that flows better.

Perfect timing, I'm really struggling with wording in my rituals. Thanks!

[@Letitallhangout]

You're right. As a beginner, I can see how using a wand could be more of a hindrance as far as still learning energy manipulation. At this point, i only see myself using a wand maybe for dipping into flower water to then use it to sprinkle certain areas for anointing or cleaning parts of the floor.

[@bethany61000]

You are such a good Witch.

[@Fezza60]

Finally got chance to sit down and watch. Littlest witchling needed emergency surgery last night so life has gone a bit sideways since Tuesday. Anyway she's recovering and I'm so happy to settle down and watch a new video. With spells I generally start by researching spells others have used for a similar purpose. I figure out what seems the right items to bring together for the specific circumstances. So I look at correspondences for incense, crystals, candles, herbs and anything else that my intuition tells me makes sense. Sometimes I include moon phases days of the week. It can feel overwhelming to start with but it's worth learning to trust yourself because then the spells and rituals are tailored to you.

[@LightWarrior66]

Super awesome to listen to you! Thanks for the information. I am more into candles, however I would love to learn about sugar bowls as well. Love the herbs as well.

[@TripleRoux]

Very cool, thank you! 🌈 I do it very similarly and I find the time when I'm gathering the herbs and tools for the set-up the most magickal part of the whole process, because I'm getting into the magician mindset while preparing everything. That's also the point where I leave looooots of room for spontaneous last-minute changes, additions and intuitions! This is the phase where the best things come to my mind, as if my subconscious gets the signal that we're doing it now and presents me with what it has been brewing in the background. I hope that makes sense... 😄

[@julievanarends3702]

So much great information! I am a new witch and I’m discovering that spells I write myself work much better.

[@tombenfell5323]

Your advice on working a spell around an intention is spot on. Every magickal practitioner should do this

[@lennyromano4742]

You are most definitely a living spell.I feel your energy and desire more. Like a floral scented cool summer breeze.I believe without a "shadow" of a doubt..it is in fact our time.The solutions to all we occur are beneath our feet, yet the desire to learn access is discarded for instant gratification . We all possess free thought and we all rent this Earth..Spending even a better portion of your life discovering possibility's and ultimately applying/testing them is fine.. I truly never understood why some, hold back on sharing thoughts .Everyone alive knows something I don't,and something you don't .Say what you will,listen to everything.. Leo

[@13MoonsOverMayhem]

You mentioned there are some good books of correspondences, but you didn’t list any in the description. Do you have any recommendations? This was a great video. I’m so glad to hear someone say you dont have to write out words that will be spoken aloud. Sometimes I do get some inspiration for words, but most often thats not how it works for me.

[@nurnu349]

Awesome content! You explain things so clearly. Thanks for sharing your knowledge! 🖤🌞👍🤗

I never thought of how candles would vee short spells but it makes sense! I think they work out when the short spell can have a lasting result like blessing an interview of a friend.

I recall an instance in one Facebook group where a male teen with special needs posted asking for help. He was looking for a spell to turn back time to May of 2021 back to when his mommy was still alive for him to save her from her cancer. He said his life right now is hell and his father won't even provide for his wants like his momma did. And he felt like "his timeline is wrecked". While most of the group was saddened, but besides the point that it was too specific, we had to remind him that real-life majik is not like magic in fantasy, as he obviously thought. Time past is past, physical death is a fixed point any timeline, and that he must accept his momma is gone, at least in the physical sense. Spirit always exists, any point in any timeline in the multiverse. May Spirit bless and guide him.

Something I wanna say (and I can't take credit for this, but I also don't remember where I read it) is that think of every possible way to help your situation with a spell. For example, say you have an obnoxious neighbor. You could do a spell to get them evicted, or you could do a spell to make them realize they are being obnoxious, or you can do a spell to help them move to a better place, the list goes on. DO NOT just do the first spell that comes to your head without thinking through the consequences!! This is an amazing btw thank you for making it, it's always fun to hear how you do things :3
