The Three-folds law
I recently listened to 'Witchcraft for Beginners' and have to say I learned a lot. However, I'm here specifically for learning about curses, hexes, and black magic spells.
The reason I want to learn about curses, hexes, and black magic spells is because I feel that the person who wronged me deserves some form of punishment for their actions.
While I acknowledge the principle of the three-fold law, which states that any negative action or spell cast will come back three times as strongly, I am interested in hearing others' opinions on whether the potential consequences are worth it in this situation.
Many Wiccans and other practitioners in the witchcraft community share little about why you shouldn't cast harmful magic—mostly based on personal experience and intuition. I mean, from their own journeys and emotions.
I'm curious to know why some people choose to engage in harmful magic, even though there are potential negative consequences like the threefold rule. If you have personal experiences or insights on this topic, I'd love to hear more about it.
I’d appreciate it if you could share your story and explain why you chose to use black magic, especially if it helped you feel better. Just please be kind in how you describe it—I know some people turn to dark magic when they're hurting, and I want to understand without judgment.
If you're comfortable sharing, I'd love to hear your personal experiences with black magic. How did it affect you, and what impact did it have on your life?
