For all you Wiccans, Witches, Mages and others and all those who want to be lumped in the spellcaster mix. Have you tried spells to better your life? Not just rituals for event ceremonies, but actual magick. I'm interested in some of your stories.

Sort of! When the youngest boys were 8 and 10 we bought this neat wigwam and put it up in the front yard. It was almost full-sized, and made out of heavy canvas with Indian Decals painted on it. It was Summer and very dry. We were Farmers and we needed rain to make the crops grow. So because the boys were having so much fun with the wigwam we decided to have a Pow-wow rain dance. So we cleared the kitchen chairs out of the way, and danced around the kitchen table while we chanted. Shortly after, the weather turned dark with heavy clouds, and the wind got up. One of the older boys ran out and brought the 2 youngsters in out of the tent. It began to rain, and it poured and turned to hail. The wind and golfball sized hail, broke all the windows on the North Side of the house. We were scared and wondering what else could happen. We still remember that rain dance and have vowed never to do that again.

of course. anyone that hasn't performed Magic and calls themselves a Witch is basically lying. seeing as the term describes someone not only dabbling, but skilled in the area.

o.O there are plenty of people that follow a pagan religion that do not practice magic

yes there are. they are Pagans. they are not Witches. a Witch is a skilled Practitioner of Magic. a Witch can be of any religion, it's a bit like a carpenter. not all Pagans practice Magic. and if they don't they can't claim to be Witches.

I don't think I fit into any of the groups you have listed above. I have never cast a spell or ever wanted to cast one really. I would cast one to better my life if I could though. I would love to meet someone who can tell us more about this also. I wander if it is really true?

magic and ritual is really a daily umm "ritual" thing in this house lol but out of the ordinary, other than protection spells.. itd be prosperity spellwork. odd thing is, i dont really do anything specific. its sort of a random thought, or a wish i guess you could call it, and itll happen. i very rarely ask for anything, so maybe because of my lack of greediness, its just granted automatically. but whenever we are down and out financially, i give a hollar to the fae, and the next thing i know, the amount we are needing appears. still amazes me everytime it happens.

I've tried to keep my magicks simple as well. I haven't had any rituals or incantations but I have used healing potions and a summoning or two. Most of what I do comes in the form of what others would describe as Prayer maybe. A thought her or there that ends up being very powerful, much like what you are describing. At my family's darkest hours, something has always risen to our aid. Thanks!
