I have a room set aside exclusively for my magical spell work, a room that is locked at all times. This allows me to work undisturbed. My work area is periodically cleaned with a purifying powder to keep away negative vibrations. I have decorated it with things that put me in a magical mood. Things that stimulate all my physical senses; colours for sight, incense for scent, music for hearing, wines for taste, and textures for feel.
I have an altar set up that is used as a worktable. It’s size and shape is of a kind that appeals to me; on this I place candles and other items that assist me to concentrate on the work at hand. I like to cover this altar with a white cloth and place fresh cut flowers on it every day.
I always use the best candles, oils, and incenses that I can afford, or I make my own; for scrimping on materials has a negative effect on the subconscious. I never forget that the subconscious is very good at making do with raw materials that it can shape to its own use.
I never cast a spell until I have a clear and concise picture of what it is I wish to accomplish. This ties in with the saying “Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.”
I always ground out any extra energy I raise for the spell, and bind the spell so that it expires within the pre-determined amount of time. Once I have cast the spell, I do not discuss it with anyone except my client. Many spells peter out because the person who cast it has spoken about it to people other than who it was for, this will rob the spell of its of power before it has a chance to work. The ancient bond placed on the magician was to dare, to know and to keep silent.
Above all, at all times, I remember the Rede: “An ye harm none, so do what you will.”
Lastly, never try to cast a spell given to you by someone else. You cannot know all the effects of the spell, therefore, the magick must be cast by the spell maker alone.
