If you’ve completed the rst 5 days of your Wicca Self-Initiation,

you are ready to slowly start working with your Magic. A good
way to start is by taking the free Spellcasting 101 Online Course.

Lesson 2 in the course explains everything about How to Cast

Spells of Magic. That will get you started with Witchcraft and
ready to cast spells at home. This page will also help you
understand what you’ll be doing during each type of spell. The
most important part is to have a clear goal and a well-de ned
intention before starting any rituals.

Types of Witches Spells

Inner and Outer Magic

Before you start working your Magic, it’s important to ask

yourself: “What do I believe?” Do you believe in God? Or would
you rather worship the Goddess? Maybe both! Or neither!
Atheist Witches exist too, and those who combine whatever
works or makes sense for them. There are many ways to start a
spiritual path and it can be a bit overwhelming. Start by asking
yourself: “What do I want to believe?”

In general, Pagan rituals and spells can be separated in two

categories: Inner Magic and Outer Magic.

Inner Magic are those rituals where you turn your attention to
yourself. By nding a personal, sacred space of intimacy and
revelation, you can access information that is stored in your
subconscious. Think of it as meditation but with a goal. The
ritual surrounding it can include af rmations and mantras that
with help establish an intention for the introspective work. The
intention can be as simple as nding a lost object, or as complex
as xing a relationship.

Outer Magic is a way to reach out and open up to an external

force. By letting a Higher Energy be in control for a while, you
can work on creating an attitude of humility, devotion and
compliance. Think of it as a prayer. By developing a consistent
practice, you will start to feel supported by a greater power in

which you will be able to trust and speak with honesty. A great
way to start is through Daily Wiccan Devotionals.

You’ll nd both types of rituals and spells on this website. While

sometimes there will be overlapping between the two, you can
always modify the spell recipes to t your current path and set
of beliefs.

White and Black Magic

What is White Magic and what is it that makes it white? In the

end, all Magic is the same and does not have any color.
However, it is common to hear that different types of spells have
colors associated to them. This is just convention. The concept of
color in magic (white magic, black magic, etc.) has become
commonplace due to its use in lm, television and other works
of ction, but it’s not really a big deal.

In very broad terms, red represents love, green can be related to

wealth or growth, black relates to protection and white is clear
or neutral. You can learn more about the meaning of colors in
our lesson on Candle Magic. But the important thing to
remember is that all Magic is part of the same energy and these
divisions are not real, but a human concept, just like good and
bad.

When we talk about White Magic, we usually refer to

healing or helping to obtain positive changes in our lives
through real spells of Magic.

On the other hand, Black Magic is what some Witches

consider that works against, or tries to manipulate the free will
of people. Because these spells abruptly affect the natural ow
of life, they can be dangerous and counterproductive.

Free will is considered by some to be the most powerful force in

nature and care must be taken when seeking to manipulate it
through any means. Always remember the Law of Three:
“Everything you send to the Universe, will come back to you
Three-fold.”

Remember the Law of Three

Banishing Spells 💨
A banishing spell is a ritual intended to cast something or
someone out of your life. This type of spell prevents it from
coming back. If it’s a person, the spell will stop them from

https://spells8.com/topic/types-of-spells/ 4/16
8/20/2019 The Many Types of Witches Spells (Real Magic) | Spells8

seeing you and in some cases even thinking about you. Some
practitioners also choose banishing spells for spirits, demons
and to get rid of negative entities in general. Banishing spells
are popular among folk magic circles such as Hoodoo.

Binding Spells 🔗
A binding spell will stop somebody from behaving a certain
way, limiting their actions. To bind means to control or limit
someone’s or something’s power. The idea behind this type of
ritual is to symbolically tie up the target in order to restrict his or
her actions and prevent them from harming themselves or
others. While they can have a negative connotation, you could
cast a binding spell on yourself to break a bad habit, for
example.

Freezer Spells ❄

While some traditions consider them to be a part of binding

spells, a freezer spell is typically used when we want to silence
somebody. We call this to freeze someone’s words or activities.
In Hoodoo, they are used to stop someone by freezing them in
their tracks, freezing them out of a situation, freezing their
tongue, freezing their sexuality¹.

Sweetening Spells 🍯
Also known as “honey jar”, a sweetening spell tries to sweeten or
mellow someone’s attitude toward you. It can be cast on a
speci c person or a situation (such as a legal case, a career
problem or a relationship). A jar or other similar container is
used for this type of spell. We place a representation of the
target inside (a name, personal object, sigil, etc) and honey is
added on top of it. Sometimes a candle is burn on top of the lid
to seal the intention with wax.

Love Spells 💘

Love spells that work most effectively are those that empower
you as a person to increase your ability to give and receive love.
Whatever you do that makes you feel more worthy of love or
more open to love, will naturally bring more love to your life. The
good news is that realistic wishes usually bring realistic results.

When you are casting love spells, whether you are seeking a
new love or wanting to improve your current relationship, it is
also important to be precise and detailed on de ning clearly
what you want.

Love Spells

The Love spells you’ll nd on this website are mostly designed to

work on yourself. You cannot change others by force, but you
can always change yourself. Spells and meditations will give you
insights on what is the best course of action for you right now.
Maybe you think you want to go back to your ex-partner, but
with a bit of introspection and time, you end up discovering that
it might be easier and more fun to place your energy in going
after a new romance. The important thing is that you
communicate and listen to yourself and your intuition, that is,
your Higher Self, who knows exactly what’s right for you,
without exception.

Opening your heart to receiving love is one of the best things

you can do. A love spell will always help you put your feet on the
ground and align your body, mind, and spirit so you can get
exactly what you deserve, no more, and no less.

Wealth and Money Spells 💰

Money has played a fundamental role in our society since the

birth of civilization. After all, money provides comfort and –
using it wisely – it has some power to make us happy. Let’s not
forget that money also has an impact on a wide range of
decisions we make in our lives: To accept or decline a job offer,
to buy a house or wait for another chance, to go on an
adventure or save it for later.

While it’s not likely that you’ll become a millionaire just by

casting a spell or win the lottery by wishing upon a star, it is
possible to use Witchcraft to change your views, goals, and
expectations regarding money. By changing the way you think
about it, you can open the doors to wealth and subconsciously
begin to attract money into your life.

Casting a money spell can also be a helpful way to bring us

down to earth and assess what our current situation is, what the
road map looks like, and how we are going to achieve our
nancial goals.

Career Spells 💼

“Everyone has been made for some particular work, and

the desire for that work has been put in every heart.” –
Rumi

Most people would hate to work at a job where they’re not

satis ed. And sometimes, it seems like there’s nothing we can
do about it. Maybe you have a boss that you don’t get along
with, or perhaps problems arise when interacting with your
coworkers. All these issues, without a doubt, can make your day-
to-day much less enjoyable. Instead of quitting your job, there
are a number of work-related spells that can help you.

Spiritual Protection Spells 🙏

Feeling safe and protected is the most valuable gift that we

have. In ancient times, shamans and healers helped people to
cure diseases, remove ailments and feel stronger. These rituals
were complemented in many cases with the use of remedies
such as food, beverages, oils and more.

While this website is not designed to and does not provide

medical advice, professional diagnosis or treatment, we have
included spells and rituals that can help you empower yourself
to spiritually aid and bless the body.

This is how we protect ourselves and our loved ones, by

directing our energy and creating an energetic shield that will
safeguard us from different types of evils.

Note: If you believe you have a serious health problem, or if you

have any questions regarding your health or a medical
condition, you should promptly consult your physician or other
healthcare provider.

8/20/2019 The Many Types of Witches Spells (Real Magic) | Spells8

Everything you do will be returned to you Three-fold. That is the

most basic principle of Wicca. Your goal when working with
Withcraft should never be to harm others, but instead to
guarantee good luck for yourself and the ones you care about.
Magic practitioners have always been very respectful with the
environment and with all living beings. Without exception.

You can attract good luck to you by consecrating your own lucky
amulet, by performing daily rituals, and by casting spells for
good luck at work, in your studies or love life.
