THE WITCHING HOUR

Est. 1996 | A Sanctuary for Lilith & Hecateโ€™s Chosen

The Anatomy of a Spell

Magic isn't just waving a stick; it's a directed current of will. To cast effectively:

  1. Cleansing: Clear the stagnant energy. Smoke, sound, or salt.
  2. The Intention: Be specific. The Universe hates a mumble.
  3. The Vessel: Use a candle, a petition, or a charm to hold the energy.
  4. The Raise: Chant, meditate, or dance to build the "hum" in your blood.
  5. The Release: Let it go. If you obsess, you're tethering the spell to you.
