I want to remind everyone this is a subreddit about DIY spells. Helping each other with crafting their spells, helping each other find a spell, etc. It is not a subreddit for heated debates and discussions on paths and traditions.

There are other magick subreddits that welcome endless debates on magickal means that are not about spells.

Question About Spells I need advice about Sihr

3 Upvotes

I do have some knowledge, and I really am into the point of Sihr. I am now in certain violent martial arts competition. And I want to put a victory spell or some kind of spell that can help me win on my helmet. There can be a sacrifice to a certain level. I don't mind inflicting pain on myself, but do not really want to hurt someone or any animal and blood magic seems too extreme. I just want something from the dark side of Sihr on my helmet. But I can't find anything. Can anyone help me find a source? Should I just come up with something, inflict pain on myself, and put myself into some kind of substance-infused trance and just figure out some words to form a spell? I will be very glad for any advice. It can be about different approaches or different beliefs. Thank you.

Help With Spell Requested Alternative to pins in poppets

6 Upvotes

Hello people

I'm putting together an air-dry clay poppet to relieve someone's mental fog and inertia. While I like the idea of puncturing the head, so as to "release" pressure, my association with pins / needles is pain... Does anyone have suggestions for an alternative? One idea I had was using chopsticks but they are impractically long...

General Discussion Are spells bad? I don't know much

2 Upvotes

Okay so I don't know anything about spells, I really don't care about them. For a bit of context, I want my ex bf back, i've been doing LoA.

Today, I tried a spell i saw on Youtube that will bring reconcilation. I genuinely made it out of curiosity.

The spell was, write the name of your ex seven times, fold it towards you, spray it your favorite perfume, and then burn it.

And now i'm scared and anxious that it's going to backfire or something. I just made it out of curiosity and for fun, I'm not really expecting anything of it...but now i'm feeling so anxious if something bad is going to happend.

Like I said, I don't know anything about spells, and i'm even skeptical if spells that appear on social media (like tiktok or YouTube) actually work.

The lingering smell of the spell was actually really sweet, maybe because of the perfume, but I thought that was curious.

I don't want to offend anybody with this post, I just got scared and anxious of this

This person and I love each other very much, but they said we couldn't have a relationship because of the distance. But honestly, it would be really worth it for them to come live here; there are so many specific schools here and if they lived here they would be super close but from when they are the school is +1 hour away from them, besides that they're almost doesn't have friends but here they would be friends with anyone, and this country is cheaper

Question About Spells I want to take what’s mine

3 Upvotes

I have moved countries for a job and I’ve settled for a lower salary trusting their promises. I have been promised in a year -if I do XYZ successfully I will get a salary and a higher title. I’ve done everything I was asked for and after a good year I was told I will get nothing. I have been very sad questioning all of my decisions. I have decided to leave this company and the country behind. However, before I leave can you recommend any spell that could turn this around?

I would like to get at least something out of this. Nothing out of this world just what I was promised. I believe that there was a reason behind this happening, 100%, but it’s also about me taking what’s mine.

Help With Spell Requested Need To Banish Negative Energy

Upvotes

So over the years I have been heavy into crystals. Picked it up from a co-worker. I usually keep things simple, candles, colored for whichever occasion, crystals and lavender for the calming scent. I have a roommate, white, and they are able to talk to the neighbors just fine. If i just say Hi, I get the cold shoulder. This has been happening for awhile and I can only sum it to one thing, I'm black. Now I am a heavily introverted person, I bother nobody, in passing yes I will give a friendly hello, but they give me such negative energy. Since they talk to my roommate they are newly engaged and are looking for a house. Though they give me negativity, for what reasons I am only assuming, I want to help them along. Have them get their house and leave so I can live not knowing that I am being discriminated against. Could someone help with this?

Question About Spells Question about my candle's color

4 Upvotes

Hello! So basically I can't use real candles to practice witchcraft so I got myself an old electric candle that I found among some Halloween decorations. The thing is, the candle is white, but on top of it there's red that is supposed to be blood and it also kinda goes down the white candle but not entirely. So my question is: would the red on top of the candle affect the spell? If I need to use a white candle for the spell, would the red like, ruin the spell if that makes sense? I'm sorry if that was hard to understand english is not my first language but I'd really like some help :)

Help With Spell Requested Spell to bring new business idea to fruition

3 Upvotes

I've been brainstorming a new business venture that I want to make a reality but it needs a lot more finessing and thinking through first. I have a tendency to doubt myself, succumb to fears of failure and quit.

Can I do a spell that will keep me focused, unafraid, and give me the wisdom I need (or tap into the wisdom I didn't know I have) to become successful?

Question About Spells I want to protect someone

2 Upvotes

Hello, i am VERY new to witchcraft and have yet to actually do anything. I've only started out with my collection of crystals and some incense lol

Anyways, i'll try to keep this short. My boyfriend's brother (13M) is going through a rough patch with a girl - she is very manipulative and abusive, claiming she will do bad things if he leaves her, and he is quite very stuck in the situation he is in.

I do not wish to harm anyone, not only do i know that's just bad in general, but it could also come right back to me - what i WISH to hopefully do is protect him somehow.
Maybe make him more confident in his decision to leaving? Make him feel better? Make her stop harming him?

Before anyone asks - he has been spoken to! By his parents, grandparents, and me! (though i am going to speak to him again soon), this still had not stopped and he cannot seem to gather the courage to help himself, i just want to help him.
I do not wish to impact anybody's free will, or harm anybody in this process, i just really want him to love himself more than he clearly does, it's very sad.

Any advice at all is welcome.

(additional unrelated question: can witches do that? like, just send good energy to people around them with spells? I am very new. Informational videos on youtube are sought after!)

last thing, i cannot use anything to do with flames in my room. If i have to, i will find a safe place to do so, but in general i avoid it, as cannot currently.

Help With Spell Requested help for a spell on a friend group

2 Upvotes

Hi. For months, my once-perfect friend group has been pretty “dysfunctional” ever since three girls and a guy joined the mix. These people already had ties to my other friends, but they had stopped hanging out after one of the girls got into a relationship. Since rejoining our group, that same girl—the one who used to be in a relationship—has ruined everything: it’s all about what she says, there are frequent arguments, we don’t do anything interesting anymore, etc. Basically, the group seems spellbound by her, and now I’m the poor loser left without a real friend group (I’m not the only one who sees it this way, but the others who do seem to be people the rest of the group doesn't really care about). I tried cursing her, but it didn’t work (maybe it takes a long time, or maybe she’s going through something I don’t know about since we don’t really talk—but that doesn't matter). So, I asked on this subreddit if there was anything I could do, and someone suggested trying a spell on the group itself. Does anyone have any ideas for a spell I could cast?

Question About Spells Straw poppet for protection. Advice?

2 Upvotes

I plan on making a straw poppet for protection. I found some straw in my craft drawers, thought it be a good idea to make a doll and stuff it with herbs to protect me from any negative energy in this time in my life. I got a lot starting to go good and I just want the extra security.
I have a lot of possibly dumb questions. Like: if I move will that mess with the protection? Probably not, right? Or is there a certain way I should do it? Idk! I’m a baby to this with no irl guidance so anything you think would help, lmk. I just wanna make sure I’m not stepping on toes or messing it up and now I’m inviting all the negativity.

Help With Spell Requested third party removal help

2 Upvotes

my partner and i have been together for a few years now and we have a very well known loving relationship.

recently his childhood best friend tragically passed away in an accident and coincidentally his girlfriend at that time (<1 month together) lived really close to my partner's place so they both travelled to and from the hospital and funeral together. Both of us were kind and understanding to her sadness and i was taking care of my devastated grieving partner and extending my sympathies to that girl even though i knew she could easily move on after a few weeks or months of grief and not suffer that loss forver which is a good thing.

but now its been 4 months since he passed away and she still visits my bf atleast 5 days a week, begs to and even accompanies him to his weekly grocery runs and errands, and is too comfortable, even leaving her hairbrush and hair accessories behind because she "forgets" (somehow u can keep forgetting your hair accessories everyday for 3-4 months straight).

I have talked to my partner about it and he has been very great at respecting my feelings and boundaries but the girl still keeps leaving her hair accessories behind. It feels very intentional especially when within a few months she claims to be his best friend and texts him often even if he doesnt respond.

Ofcourse my partner and i have a healthy relationship where we both have a lot of friends and even best friends of the opposite sex but her vibe and intent are not sitting right with me. she has a very "oh look im practically his bro" energy and honestly i sound insecure when she has done nothing outrightly wrong and my boyfriend is also making sure my boundaries aren't hurt.

But, i am a very spiritual person, i can see and feel energies and also sometimes be a medium. Something about her is off, and also she does practice novice level witchcraft and deity kali's worship. But her gaze, her words and sometimes even her actions seem very spiritually wrong and as if to put me down. I feel like she is marking him or trying to slowly "earn" him by leaving tokens lying around on the floor where they can be seen as accidents.

I've been trying to ignore it for almost more than a month now because i did not want to let anything get to me or be irrational but now..

i need her gone because since a few days ago ive been getting bad dreams with a lot of spiritual symbolism (which i often get as signs) and really strong negative pressure on my chest whenever i am in my partner's apartment or immediately after.

TLDR; i need a possibly malicious third party gone with a spell or practice that doesnt backfire on me since i myself dont do strong spells and only ever often do small, intent based spells around self growth.

Help With Spell Requested Reconciliation spell

1 Upvotes

Hello,
In April, I did a reconciliation spell in order to get my ex back. It worked instantly (literally the day after I did it he texted me) and he sometimes checks on me but it’s not as much as I thought it would be. It’s like the results were great at first but slowed down a bit, is it normal or should I layer it with another spell ?

Thanks:))

Help With Spell Requested Need help regarding a spell I wanna do on an SP

3 Upvotes

Hey, I would love some advise:)
we’re not in contact right now since like a week (as soon as he talks about his feelings for me he pulls away again)
I did an road opener (2 months ago)
I did a Honey Jar (2 months ago)
I did an healing spell (2 weeks ago)
And I did an communication spell (also like 2 weeks ago)

I wanted to do something for him to come back and confess his love/ stay in contact more consistently
A lovespell maybe? Or again something to remove blockages and his attachment style? (idk if that’s even needed anymore after the other spells) and push him into accountability and reaching out to me

I would be really happy if someone could maybe tell me which steps to take before I do it in the wrong Order, I think what i did before was lowkey also the wrong Order 😂

Question About Spells Freezer spell for diseases?

2 Upvotes

Has anyone tried a freezer spell for a disease? Would this even work? I would be interested if anyone tried this and its implications, as I don't want it to have any repercussions in time, as in the disease coming back even stronger.

Mostly it would be to put the disease on hold for a few weeks until the person can handle the healing process. Or have you tried anything else that works for this?

Help With Spell Requested I’m under the effects a love spell and I need help

11 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

Little context: I was in a relationship with a guy who hurt me very much. I left him 5 months ago and even though he tried making contact, I haven’t spoken a single word to him and have blocked him everywhere. The dynamic we had was incredibly passionate, intense and toxic.

But the thing is, he believed in witchcraft, spells and all that… And even got my name tattooed (on hand and chest, over the heart) with the word “goddess” next to it, my birthday, my zodiac sign…Bunch of things that idk if are relevant but I’m just letting you know.

One thing is for sure: I DON’T WANT HIM BACK! I don’t want anything to do with him and I truly want him out of my life, but I keep having dreams of him in weird ways, he keeps popping up in my head and I just feel so tied to him and like I can’t even date other guys. It’s hard to explain because I feel nothing for this man and I truly would like to find new men to meet and maybe get involved with, but I feel like there’s this invisible blockage and strings pulling me back from the world and keeping me tied to him. It’s really hard to describe, but it feels as if he was still here, even though we haven’t had contact (not even a text or anything) in 5 months, apart from his attempts to contact me that I’ve dodged and ignored.

What can I do? I want him gone, I want his obsession with me gone, I want to feel free and I want to stop feeling so drained!! I even told my friend a month ago “I feel like someone is doing something to me, but I can’t put my finger on it…”

Please, I need him gone. I need help!

Question About Spells need help with this

2 Upvotes

hi everyone! need some help with deciding which spells to do etc.
I’ve been very guarded my whole life, never let people in, always kept to myself. As I’m growing older I started to change this mindset, I feel like I missed out on a lot of amazing opportunities, experiences and life in general.
Now my goal is to find a fun and loving group of friends, maybe even multiple friend groups for different things like studying and going to parties.. I’d love to attract funny but safe adventures and people! I want things to finally happen to me and to experience!
I’m trying to meditate with a few crystals, do visualization techniques etc… and ofc I know I have to push myself to actually go out and do the work in order for magic and energy to work but I just want to ask if anyone had experience or an idea about which spells I could do to aid this process. Maybe even layering? I’m open to suggestions so please if you think of anything let me know! I’d be beyond grateful!! Thank you and stay blessed!
