A good Witchcraft love spell… ahh, what a topic!

First, there’s the issue of how you cast your spell.

• Are you trying to override someone else’s free will?
• Are you casting a spell for one particular person, whether or not he (or she) is the right one for you?
• What if he (or she) is already in a relationship?

Questions, questions!

If you’ve already thought about this and you’re ready for a love spell that will work “an harm none,” here are our best suggestions.

1. Don’t waste your time with amateur spells. I’m sorry, but most of them won’t work.  There are hundreds of them online.  They’re often badly written and can backfire.

Don’t use bindings. Don’t use anything that involves the person ingesting something.

Your heart is involved, and — we hope — someone else’s.  Don’t make mistakes.  Use a good Witchcraft love spell from the start.

(I recommend only one book, Simple Spells for Love. It’s worked for 99% of my clients.)

2. Keep it simple. Try one spell first.  Give it time to work… at least a week or two.  If you don’t see results, then try something else.

If your first spell is still “running” — the candle is still burning, or whatever — stop it before starting a new spell.  Using two love spells at the same time is like running two virus-checkers on  your computer. Sometimes, they don’t play well together.

3. Do it right. Spells are successful when you cast on the right day of the week, during the right phase of the moon, using the correct candle color, etc.  In witchcraft, love spells can work on the wrong day, during the wrong phase of the moon… but why waste your time and energy?

4. Avoid the auto-pilot approach. Don’t just say a few words, light a candle, and then play WoW for the rest of the evening.   Witchcraft love spells can work that way, but for the best results, channel your focus and energy into it.  Keep visualizing your spell succeeding.  If there are words to say, keep saying them.  Magick isn’t at its best if you try the “set it and forget it” approach.

5. Take it seriously. We’re talking about your future and your happiness… forever, right?  (If this is just about a one-nighter, see our second recommendation, below.)

Invest in your future by getting the best spells, and follow them exactly.   We have only two recommendations.   From what we’ve seen, the others are entertaining… but not as reliable.

Simple Spells for Love by Barrie Dolnick

Barrie Dolnick knows spells and keeps them simple.  If I need something that’s going to work, Barrie’s spells are the most reliable.

They’re also designed for everyday people.  Whether you believe in magick or not, Barrie’s spells work.  They don’t involve anything weird or hard-to-find.

Barrie’s spells are easy to follow.  She provides background information, ways to add more energy to each spell, and she offers spells for any romantic need.  If you are lonely and want True Love, Barrie can help.  If his eye is wandering, she has a spell that can help.

If it’s about love, Barrie’s book is all you need.

It’s rare for that book not to work.  When it doesn’t, this is the only other book that I can recommend.

The Salem Witches Book Of Love Spells is more flippant than Barrie’s book, and offers a wider range of spells.  However, if you’ve never cast a spell in your life, and you know almost nothing about real Witchcraft… this may not be your best choice.

On the other hand, many people — including me — have used these spells with great success.  (One reason so many Witches have used it:  It was published before Barrie’s book.)

Author Lilith McLelland is an entertaining writer who draws on her own experiences with magick and associates’ in the Salem Witch community.

If you’ve been crying yourself to sleep for the past week or longer, you’ll find plenty of laughs and good spells in The Salem Witches Book of Love Spells. In fact, this book is worth owning just because it’s fun to read.

But, I’ll be honest.  If I needed a good love spell, I’d use Barrie Dolnick’s book, Simple Spells for Love.

The Salem book is juicier and more colorful. It relies on tried-and-true Witchcraft, but… I’ve had better luck with Barrie’s spells.
