There are many ways to create protection spells, and the specific ingredients and steps will vary depending on your needs and preferences. However, there are some basic guidelines that you can follow to create a spell that will work for you.
How to do a simple protection spell
If you're looking for some simple protection spells to keep yourself and your loved ones safe, you've come to the right place. Below are five easy spells that anyone can do, no matter what their level of experience with magic. But first, let's see the basics of wiccan protection spells.
1. Define your need
First, decide what kind of protection you need. Do you want to protect yourself from harm? From negative energy? From hexes or curses? Once you know what you need protection from, you can choose the appropriate ingredients for your spell.
2. Choose your accessories
Next, choose how you will cast your spell. Will you be using candles? Herbs? Stones? Again, the specific ingredients will vary depending on your needs. Once you have chosen your ingredients, it's time to start putting your spell together.
3. Elevate your spirituality
Protection spells usually involve some combination of visualization and chanting or reciting a spell. To visualize, close your eyes and picture yourself surrounded by white light. This light is protective and will keep you safe from harm. As you chant or recite your spell, imagine this light growing stronger and brighter until it surrounds you completely.
4. Tell the universe your intention
Finally, release your spell into the universe. Send out your intention to the universe, and trust that it will work for you. Remember, protection spells are meant to be positive and helpful; if you focus on negative energy, you may attract more of it into your life. So release your spell with love and care, and know that you are protected.
