First Spell?

[Serena Oak]

What was the first spell you did?

When I was in high school I found a reference book in our high school library on Witchcraft - this was in the mid 80s. I was extremely curious even though I was a very active Christian at the time. I read through it and found a dream spell.

The spell was to dream about the person you were meant to be with, your soul mate sort of thing. You put a glass of water half filled under your bed - under where you're pillow would be - with a piece of wood over it. You would dream of walking over a bridge and you would fall in and the person that pulled you out would be the person you were meant to be with. You could do the spell until it worked and then you could not do it again (and have it work again).

So, I did that. It worked fairly quickly - within a few nights. I dreamed I was walking along a river on a path. The river was on my right and the bridge was behind me. On my left was a volcano. The volcano erupted and knocked me into the river and a tall dark haired man pulled me out.

When I tried to see his face it was blurred, like something from CourtTV. I could not see his face no matter what I did. I was infuriating. But more than that, I was completely freaked out that magic was real and I never looked into any pagan again until just a couple of years ago. I did try the spell again but of course, it never worked.

Interestingly enough, the only guys I have ever dated have had dark hair. I still haven't met 'that' guy though.

this is a fun topic! C: im not sure what counts as a first spell tho.... i always used to try and cast spells since i was like 3 and stuff. but that was mostly me mixin shampoo and glitter together then makin up words that sounded like spells
BUT this isnt my FIRST spell but it was one of my first ones that worked really good. when i was 10 me and my friends were at school and tried castin a rain spell together. then in class like 30 minutes later it stared hailing. we got all excited about our new super powers even tho we mighta overdid it with the hail

Maybe you haven't met him since there's like, no one 'that' guy? But then, I subscribe to the Dan Savage school of thought on things like soulmates, soooo...

Anyway. My first spell, if I remember correctly, was a spell I did with my sister to try and help our mother stop smoking. I don't remember what it all entailed, but I do know it didn't work. XD

My first spell was sort of a...well I guess it was a binding/protection spell. I was having a hard time with a college professor for Calligraphy who was always hounding me for not writing correctly. I had enough. This spell actually worked because I made it up on my own. Basically I made an offering to Ogun to help me, to protect me. I made it very clear not to hurt my teacher, just keep her away from me while I deal with my work during class.

It worked, it worked for two weeks until I did a closing offering once I felt I could handle the teacher. I told Ogun that I didn't need his protection and that I will be okay. And the next day the teacher was back to her old tricks and I could handle it. I passed the class.

But I don't like to work magic a lot, spells or whatever because I live in a household that is weary of my beliefs. I only really work spells when it is needed.
