I like luck and healing magic which I normally do through candle magic.

I don't really have a favorite. I guess my favorite is whatever spell I need at the moment.

However, there are some types of magic I'm really good at (e.g. protection) and iother types I'm really no very good at (e.g. healing), so I'd much prefer to cast something I'm good at. :)

Healing spells are the ones I find most useful!

This. I don't have a favorite, but there are certain types I use more often than others. It usually oscillates between healing, divination and protection more often than not.

I love magic. I love experimenting with it, too, which I've been told in the past is dangerous. (To which I say: chickenshits.) Consequently I've tried out loads of different kinds of spells.

I'm fond of candle magic - it's easy, it's versatile, and it gives me a physical component that I can both focus on and divine from.

I like sigil magic too, for many of the same reasons and with the added bonus of being able to play with it in different ways. Graffiti, embedded in art, used in batches (a-la sigil shoaling as described on Rune Soup), saved and displayed or burnt up in flame.

Anything that requires a trip to the graveyard is always oddly enjoyable. I learned a reconciliation spell that's neat - it involves making small figures and making them a bed of sugar. I thought that one was really sweet. I enjoy making witch bottles for protection, and bottles designed to aggravate situations - shaking the latter is satisfying on a level I'm sure some would find petty.

But if we're going to pick like... a doozy of a spell we've done? Hm. I'm not going to judge on effectiveness, but rather on pure fun. Sooo...  I dunno, I do a LOT of magic, and I enjoy it. I think it would be easier to pick out the utter failures.

Though I'm still not sure I should call it magic I do crystal work and I have a heavy focus on healing. But I also enjoy just moving energy around. Absorbing it and transmuting it.

I would argue ALL magic uses energy, but not all energy use is a spell.

Olie you crack me up. I keep reading your posts and laughing. Anyways, I don't know if this would be counted as a spell or not but sometimes when I'm physically hurting (all the time) and my medicine isn't working so well I do this; I breathe in my nose and picture a neon purple and white swirled "smoke" entering my body and filling it up to every end. Then I exhale through my mouth and visualize that same smoke, only now black, leaving my body. I do it with every breath for a few minutes. The purple and white smoke are healing and the black smoke is the pain and illness. I inhale healing and exhale the problem. It actually works. The effects don't last very long, but even a little bit is a relief for me. And it's easy to do, no prep work.
