Spook Guide - Spell Casting
Spells are a word, a formula or an incantation that is believed to
have magical powers. Spells can be used for both good and evil, and
are usually cast by witches or wizards. Once a spell is cast, it is
supposed to remain in force until it is broken by either a counter-spell
or an exorcism.
Spells
are magical acts that are intended to cause an effect on reality
by using supernatural means. Spells have their origins in pagan religions
and beliefs. Collections of spells were known as grimoires.
Spells
usually require several processes to be effective. These include
preparation (collecting and depositing the ingredients, fasting,
praying), a magical performance and an invocation or chant, an execution
and a closure to make the spell complete.
Black
magic spells are when the goal of the spell, or the means used to
achieve it, are illegal, evil or immoral. White spells are done for
the good of society using innocuous means. Hence, black and white
witches cast very different spells.
