What you'll learn

Key ideas in Modern Witchcraft: Crafting Your Practice

  • Present-tense language anchors the intention in the current reality rather than a distant future
  • Magic follows the path of least resistance and often ignores negatives, focusing on the core noun (stress)
  • Magic manifests the state you focus on, so 'wanting' creates a state of perpetual longing
  • Intentions should focus on the presence of a desired state rather than the absence of an unwanted one
  • Colors carry specific energetic frequencies that align with different life areas
  • Effective magic targets the root cause or a specific desired feeling rather than a list of complaints
  • Why present-tense phrasing is more effective than future-tense desire
  • Matching a color to an intention acts as a visual and energetic anchor
  • A single, focused intention is more powerful than a 'scattershot' approach
  • The impact of negative phrasing (not/don't) on magical outcomes
  • Personal willpower is the primary driver of magical change
  • Physical ingredients are secondary tools used to focus and amplify that internal will
  • Beginner spells work best on specific, localized outcomes
  • The hierarchy of power between willpower and physical tools
  • Broad intentions require more energy and complex layering than a single session can provide
  • Matching specific colors to the energetic 'vibe' of an intention
