wiccan/paganism?

Question

is it true you can cast a spell to make someone like you?

Answer 1

Yes, it is possible to cast a spell to make someone like you or think that they love you. Even marry you.
Yes, the spell can be effective depending upon the skill of the one casting it. Someone unskilled in magic would be simply making a wish---with the same results of wishing.
No, the real them will never truly love you because of the spell.
No, you do not have to tell anyone about it to make it work.
No, it is not ethical or recommended by most (with good reason).
No, I would never tell someone how to do it because the results are devastating and I won't be a part to someone else going through what I did. It is REALLY not worth it.

Answer 2

Depends, you can cast a spell on a specific person, but it isn't recommended. It messes with free will, is considered manipulative, and probably wont have the effect you are looking for. Also take in consideration the rule of three. Would you want to be forced into loving someone?

You can do a spell to attract love to yourself, but be carefull you may get some unwanted attention. Just be patient. Eventually you will find love.

Answer 3

Wicca ethics is against casting a spell to control the will of others. An if it harm none do as thouu wilt. Using magic to control the will of others is harming another human.

In Wicca magic is to be used only for the good. I suggest reading books by Scott Cunningham and Raymond Buckland.

Answer 4

Well, the christians will tell you it's impossible and it wouldn't work, but all the people who have actually done it will point out that it's a bad idea. Love spells are rather like having a very big gun and very bad aim. You will generally ruin your life and possibly someone else's as well if you try love spells.

Answer 5

No you can't, it is manipulating that person into behaviour that is unnatural. It goes against all laws of nature. Spells can only be performed on people with their permission, andeven then, it is only for good purposes. Would you really want someone to like or love you because of a spell rather than because they want to?

Answer 6

you may provide Magicka college a attempt too. they have a twelve months long on line course that has been great for historic past information on the Craft. There are even exams. I could agree in spite of the indisputable fact that that books are your maximum suitable bets. i'm taking part in Buckland's finished instruction manual to Witchcraft and Cunningham's Wicca: A instruction manual for the solitary practitioner.

Answer 7

Its alittle more complicated than that. You can do a ritual to allign your will to make yourself more attractive to that person so they will like you. You can't just whip out a candle, rub some oil on it and light it and expect the person to ask you out the next day. Its unproductive to yourself and others to cast a spell on or for someone else. Its easier and better to change yourself.

Answer 8

OK, first, read about the lives of famous occultists:

Then decide if it's worth persuing. If you want to wind up broke and forgotten, go for it!

If there is any truth to the old saying "Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach.", that truth is found in the occult, and Wicca in particular. Silver Ravenwolf has written close to a dozen books on the subject of "The Craft", and claims she has been studying it since about 1969, which is almost as long as I’ve been alive. She has written a book on how to cast money spells, and includes a chapter on how to do so in her Teen Witch book. But the thing is, she doesn't particularly sound all that prosperous herself. Ravenwolf writes,

" For years I couldn't afford to go to a hair stylist (still can't, it's shop and chop for me). I got pretty good at stying my own hair from looking at magazine pictures" [SOURCE: Teen Witch, Llewellyn Publications, 2003 edition, page 145]

OK, she so rich she can't go to the hairdresser. Hey, get me a copy of that Prosperity Spell book!

Silver Ravenwolf seems to have inadvertently discovered that Wicca makes things worse, but won't ever admit it as such.
In Teen Witch she says

"A lot of people tell me how bad their lives have gotten after casting a spell and tell me they won't do Witchcraft anymore. I tell them their lives would have been much worse for not having cast the spell".

Gee Silver, you would think a lot of people would be saying things like "Hey, Silver Ravenwolf, my life has improved tremendously with Wicca!" if Wicca is as great as they claim. Instead it makes lives much worse, and even Silver Ravenwolf admits she hears this a lot!!!

Why? Because sometimes, things are just as you think they are. Most average people will tell you the occult deals with black magic and demons, and demons are evil beings who wish us harm. This is how it is my friend. The occult is evil, and brings bad happenings into a person's life, and Wicca is an occult religion. When you stop trying to rationalize it with inaccurate data and just use common sense you will realize this. Some occultists are of above average intelligence, and I think part of the problem is they have book smarts but not common sense. There are two forces at work in this universe: the counterfeit and the genuine. Wicca’s source of power is not the genuine. There’s just simply no way Wicca (and thus the copycat Neopagan religions) can be created from the black magic writings of “The Great Beast 666", the bizarre sexual practices of Gardner, the spiritual “guidance” of the Watchers (fallen angels) and still be a source of good!

Adian Kelly wrote a book on the history of Wicca called "Crafting The Art of Magic" in the 1980's. Wiccans had a fit when it was published, and pressured Llewellyn to take it out of print. It was supposed to be the first in a series of books. I think Adian Kelly probably summed it up best when he said this about the Gardnerian "Book of Shadows", the closest thing Wicca has to a sacred book:

" [M]any of the Book of Shadows rituals did not exist in 1954 (when Witchcraft Today was published) but instead were still being written. [T]he major sources from which the rituals had been constructed included: (a) Mather's edition of the Greater Key of Solomon; (b) Aleister Crowley's Magic in Theory and Practice; (c) Leland's Aradia (d) some Masonic rituals akin to those described by Duncan and those of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn (aside from those transmitted by Crowley; and (e) Margaret Murray's The Witch Cult in Western Europe. There were also bits and pieces from other works by Leland, Jane E. Harrison, Gilbert Murray, James Frazier, and other great classicists from the 19th century. That accounted for EVERYTHING in the rituals! There was nothing left that differed in any important way from what you can find in those sources- - but that is NOT at all what Gardner had claimed!"

None of the people who have answered your question can make it work either. Don't delude yourself. It's an incredible waste of time and money, and it's spiritual poison.

Answer 9

That is unethical,and thus not a deed of a true wiccan/pagan.

It's not like on tv,to gain cash and women (or men) and so on,really.

=)

Answer 10

Yes, you can cast a spell to make someone like you, but when you use magick to take away someone's free will, that is some bad juju, my friend. Using magick to control someone is magickally unethical. Any magick used to control someone is automatically dark magick (black magick).
