Help someone I need simple begginer spells.

I am a new witch and I don't know were to start. I am working on my altar and stuff. Are there any beginner spells I could use?

If you are a new witch I suggest that you begin by studying the basics of the craft and its beliefs, before you get into any sort of spell working. At the very least you need to know how to cast a circle, and then raise, direct, and ground power.

I would suggest the following for your reading/study list.

A Witch's Bible - Janet and Stewart Farrar

http://www.amazon.com/Witches-Bible-Jan ... b_title_bk

A Complete Book of Witchcraft - Raymond Buckland

The Spiral Dance - Starhawk

For a historical overview of the craft -

Drawing Down the Moon - Margot Adler

You can also read all of Gerald Gardners writings via this link. Even if you do go onto a more eclectic practice, in my opinion it's still a good idea to get a basic understanding of the origins of Wicca through Gardnerian practices.

Good luck, take your time, seek knowledge, and learn.

Any blessings are great...you could do some herbal and crystal magick. Experiment and don't be afraid to cast spells.

I agree with Emerald's post about learning the basic magical concepts before diving in to spells. Learn the four elements properties -. They’re what make magic go. Do a lot of browsing.

Supplies represent elements: Airincense - Fire🕯candles &oil - Water H2O ,, - Earthsalt,herbs & stones
.
Elemental Links

• East-Air-Incense: intellect , sage & mint, spice and citrus scents
  South-Fire-Candles: vitality, passion, strength , rosemary, hot-spicy scents
  West-Water-Cup: psychism, emotions , thyme, sweet and citrus scents
  North-Earth-Stones: health & wealth , salt, wheat, forest scents
  Center-Aether-spirituality , dandelion root, cinnamon, ginger, spice scents

About Spells:
. Incantations tell the power what to do, so say only what you expect results to be
. Charge a spell with intent: pull power to your belly on the breath, focus on intent and push from the gut to the spell

Easy-Peasy Spells
. Use & write a wish on the breeze itself. Lick your finger so you feel the air as you write & set intent.
. Use & write a wish on the surface of a glass of water, then draw power on the breath to the belly, focus & push intent into the water & drink it; & better still if the full Moon's reflection is caught in the glass of water & you drink the Moon's charged image.
. Use & gather pebbles to make a spiral representing a challenge & then change or reverse the layout to change or reverse the situation. Set intent as you say "The old is passed & gone, the new I call upon, I call (state desire) to come.
. Use with candle magic. Use a tea light or birthday cake candle. Spread a dab of olive oil on the candle to hold a psychic charge; Hold the candle between your hands ; draw power to your belly & charge the cold candle. Speak your own words thrice. Put the candle in its holder or set it in a cup with 1/2-inch salt to absorb heat. Then light the wick & gaze at the flame for a minute knowing that the task is done; thank the Powers & let the candle burn all the way down while you do something else. Put tins/stubs in the trash.

Some beginner spell ideas:
- greatest intention "love is me" (love spell)
- good ideas like "lost is found" (like with losing your phone)
- natural works like "garden be sweet" (all of this is fun)
