Unidecimus Clavem ( Creating your own spells )

Introduction

Words are powerful. Every tone, sound or vibration that our vocal chords produce can affect our surroundings. That's why with just a simple word like "Hi" can affect other people. That's what I believe that each word that we say is magical enough to make everything change in an instance.

So I will show you how I construct some spells.

This is my way of creating Spells

I know that some of you might question my ways of doing it but I'll explain it with reason and logic as hard as I can and I hope you'll find it useful someday.

I always observe how other religion e.g. Wicca , Buddhism , Esoteric practices , Kabbalah, Taoism , Shintoism and many more construct prayers and incantation. There are few factors to be considered when creating spells.

The Factors

The first factor that you need to consider is communication with the divine. Before you create your spell you need to be selfless and focused. Buddhist meditates first to communicate with their deity. Wiccans also have their ways on communicating with the goddess and the god. Shamans use contacts spirits to attain what they want. This is the most crucial part of creating spells, without divine intervention it will not work.

The second factor that you need to consider is your intent. Whether your intent is good or bad you must focus your mind on how your intent would affect you and your surroundings.

The third factor are the tools that you need to utilize when creating the spell. Wiccans use athames, wands , candles , etc when they do spells or rituals. Christians also use the bible, cross, rosaries, and other religious relics when praying. Taoism uses spirit blade, paper charms, and incense when doing an exorcism. So it is a must to identify which tools are you going to use when creating spells. The tools that you will utilize must symbolically relevant with the divine and your intent.

The fourth factor is the words that you'll use. The magical language also is a factor of potency. The words you use must be understandable by the divine or spirit for them to intervene or to obey. Some tend to study ancient languages in order to make their spells powerful. Studying ancient languages is just optional, as long as it is a deity you're communicating to you can use your mother tongue in constructing your spells.

The fifth factor is symbols. Runes, Sigils, Letters and numbers are also a factor in constructing your spell. Taoist use special symbols when creating talismans called "Fu" each symbols corresponds to the deity, the action of the spell and how it affects the caster and the caster's surroundings. Sorcerers use sigils when doing a specific spell. The symbols that you'll utilize must be connected to the divine and it must have to be linked to your intent.

Constructing the Tool

I tried this one out of curiosity so here's what happened.

I wanted to control the air flow real bad. Since I am fond of air and I like how it feel when I'm in its presence. So I tried to create a spell to control it

What I've done is create a tool which would be like some sort of a container, an amulet where I can focus all my energy and where I can contact the spirit of air.

So I have decided that the amulet would be a pendant. Since a pendant is a symbol of air, and it can be used as a pendulum for scrying.

So I went outside to walk. Finding the materials for the pendant. While I was walking, I found a pointy but dull glass shard on my path. I took the glass shard and held it and I felt something from the glass so I kept it.

The next thing is cleansing the items. I used tap water with salt. I removed all of the dirt and dust. The dullness of the glass shard became shiny after I cleansed it.

Then I crafted the glass shard to be a pendant. I used a piece of crafting wire to hold the glass shard. And the finishing touch is a silver chain to hold the pendant.

After some time, I went outside for a walk. I kept the pendant on my pocket and went to some place where no one is arround.

As i stand at that area, I infused the spirit of the air into the pendant. By chanting these words, I invoked the spirit of the wind.

INVOCAMUS TUA IN
POTERE DE VENTUS

it means 'I summon thee by the power of the wind' (which I have composed after I crafted the pendant) I chanted the words seven times and the wind blows back to me. Then I spoke these words as I held the object on my left hand.

By the power of the wind
I (my full name) shall rule
This object for all eternity

Spirit of the wind please
Heed my call, grant me thy
Power and seal it within this
pendant.

So be it!

The wind suddenly blew stronger and then as I dangle the pendant on my left hand the wind suddenly stopped but still the pendant still moves by itself.

On my right hand I stopped the pendant from swinging. A gleam of light reflected the glass pendant and it sparkled like a diamond. I sensed that it is not the same pendant that I crafted, as I held it in my hand I felt a different energy inside the piece of glass.

Every time I wear the pendant the wind gives me a slight breeze while I walk. And as I focus my hand on an object or a thing e.g. tree, the wind swoops and shakes that tree.

The pendant never falters to give me an answer when I use it for scrying.

And while I wore it on a cloudy day it warns me from the approaching rain.

Constructing the Spells

Since that I have blessed the pendant I tried to compose some spells of my own for the pendant.

The spell must contain the following elements.

1. The choice of tongue.

To communicate with the spirit, you must choose a type of language for you to talk to them. I chose the Latin language because in my opinion it is the language mostly used by the spirits to communicate.

2. To whom you address it.

You need to consider with whom do you want to communicate. Its either a deity, spirit or a demon. Its your choice. To have the spirit's name for it to become powerful is just an option.

3. Your intent.

This is the most crucial part. You need to be wise for the intent of the spell. Its either to benefit you and others, or harm yourself or others.

The following spell is what I have composed for the pendant. Its intent is to temporarily stop the rain from falling.

PER POTERE DE VENTUS,
EGO MANDATO TUA, SUBSISTE!

In this example you'll see that I have used the Latin language. If you'll translate it to English it means ' by the power of the wind, I command thee, Stop!'

Observe the spell closely, it has the three elements on the spell.

I hope this shall help you from your journey.

So be it.
