This is a complex question. Many elements are involved in casting a spell. You need an awakened will, a strong desire, a knowledge of herbs, correspondences and concentration, just to name a few.

Suppose you wanted to cast a love spell. If you are working with a European system, that often would mean calling upon a god or goddess of love to help. Aphrodite or Venus are very popular, and she has a long list of correspondences, including but not limited to: Roses, rose water, rose oil, violets and narcissi; seven rayed stars; the colors pink, red, green and purple; metals like gold and copper, minerals like malachite, gems like emeralds and rubies, and sweet smelling scents like rose, violet, lotus, musk and jasmine.

Advanced people don't need rituals, but ritual gives you a solid foundation. It takes practice to perform a ritual correctly. An excellent ritual to master is the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram. Since I'm not a Christian, I don't place archangels in the quarters - I use deities instead. You should be flexible while being consistent.

No one can succeed in witchcraft unless he isn't bound by social constraints. When I did my love spell, I bought the used panties of a stripper to use in my ritual. Your own bodily fluids are powerful and can be used in ritual to consecrate tools such as candles or the above mentioned panties. You have to find a way to build the energy and momentum. This is often done through drumming and chanting. The energy is brought to a peak and then released. This is true of all spells. This is why simple three or four line rhymes by themselves are useless.

You don't want to be a sorcerer, they are evil doers (not to mention myth).

They are NOT always evil doers... That is saying something to the effect that every Muslim is a terrorists... or that (In World War II) Every Japanese-American was working for Japan... Or in the same war (in the way the Nazis' though) that every Jewish person deserved death. That answer is generalizing, but no two people are the same, so you can NOT say that Sorcerers ARE evil.. that is saying that ALL of them are.

You need an open mind and to focuse all your energy on your spell and your spell's purpose.

A Pagan Perspective

Witchcraft is above all a spiritual path.

Like most things in this world, it takes years of training and practice to become proficient. Finding a skilled, ethical teacher is a first step on your path.

I advise you to look for someone you know, or can get to know personally, much too much of what we do is not something one can pick up by reading a book, watching a You-tube video or grabbing something off the internet.

Witchcraft is not "fast food", nor is it a game or pastime for the silly or those unwilling to dedicate time and effort to it.

Interesting question.

Let me start out by explaining that magic has no polarity. It is not good or bad, beneficial or harmful, saintly or evil, black, white or grey. Magic is the power that is wielded.

With that in mind, it is important to understand that the practitioners of magic are simply human beings. All human beings have the potential for great good, but they also have the potential for great evil.

The magic done by any practitioner is often perceived as having polarity, and yet it is guided by the hand and will of a person. It is not just that person's intent (although that is a large portion of it) but how they gather, store, control, direct, and/or release the magic that counts.

Additionally, there are some spiritual paths that believe all magic is evil or sinful, and yet many of these same spiritual paths believe that prophets and practitioners of their own path have done "miracles" which are more often than not things that practitioners of magic do. Yet no matter how beneficial, or we intended a practitioner, or their magic is, they are branded as evil or black magicians.

Before attempting to cast any spell you should ask yourself 'what is the real reason I want to do this, and is it valid?' Also, you should truly study the mean in which you wish to use to direct your intended energy/purpose.
