- A spell is manifesting an intent, bringing something about through the use of energy. Completely unique to the witch casting them, so follow your own intuition.
- Intention, everything else comes from that
- What do you want and why? What kind of magic is it - prosperity, love, health?
- What kind of spell style do you want to perform? What’s the timeline?
- After intention, you really don’t NEED anything!
- Candles, jars, bags, etc.
- Different elements are associated with different intentions

- What is calling to you? Look up why
- Timing the spell
