Look at the lives of these famous occultists, and then decide if it works:
Henry Cornielius Agrippa von Nettesheim: One of the most famous occultists of the middle ages. His work has gone on to inspire hundreds of "magical" books and writings. Despite all his occult knowledge, he died in poverty at age 41 in 1532.
Cagliostro, a famous French-Egyptian "magician", did the most embarrassing things, like putting a teacup on his erect penis and telling women "This is the only Bishop you will bow to!" He died in the Bastille in 1795.
John Dee discovered Enochian Magick and tried unsuccessfully to get the spirits to bring him money. He spent the final years of his life stripped of his honors and income and was forced to live incommunicado. He died in extreme poverty at 81.
Paracelsus: Thought himself a great physician, but he was really just an alchemist who had bizarre theories about human anatomy and prescribed dangerous remedies for his patients. This man was said to be arrogant and conceited, and was shunned by the other medical experts of his day.
He died broke at the age of 48.
Edward Kelly: An assistant of Dee, after failing to strike it rich with Enochian Magick, he was killed trying to escape prison. He had been imprisoned for his old hobby, counterfeiting.
Aleister Crowley had a nervous breakdown in spent 4 months in an insane asylum after trying to conjure a demon in a Paris hotel. In 1947 he died impoverished in a flophouse, forgotten by his family, a drug addict and alcoholic, despite starting out in life as a rich heir to Crowley Ale. He squandered it all on drugs and whores. "Success is your proof " - -Liber Al Vel Legis 3:46, Aleister Crowley
Gurdijef was a Russian con man who got involved in many money making scams. Once he dyed sparrows in peroxide and sold them as canaries! Even his biographers admit he had a "streak of charaltainism" about him. He created a system of bunk psychotherapy which is convoluted and even people who practice it can't clearly explain what is. In other words, it was the forerunner of Scientology.
Christian Rosenkrutz never actually existed. The whole Rosicrucian thing was started as a joke to make fun of occultists by a Lutheran minister named Valentin Andrea.
The Fox Sisters started the whole spiritist/seance’ movement in 1840. Years later they confessed the whole thing had been a hoax, but no one wanted to listen.
Samuel "Macgregor" Mathers: Eventually all the members of the Golden Dawn figured out Mathers lied about the secret chiefs, which led to him being kicked out, & the Golden Dawn being disbanded. He died in poverty from Pnumonia in 1918.
Jack Parsons blew himself up in his basement, making nitroglycerin, which he sold on the black market to supplement his income (apparently his money spells didn't work, either.)
Pamela Coleman Smith painted the illustrations for Arthur Edward Waite's tarot deck, one of the most popular decks being used today. She died penniless and alone in a London flat.
Paschal Beverly Randolph inspired people like Aleister Crowley, the members of the O.:T.:O.:., and Henri Gamache. His books are still in print. He committed suicide at age 44, leaving his wife and son to live in poverty.
They couldn't make the occult work, neither can anyone else.
Here's a quote from Wiccan Tradition Head Silver Ravenwolf:
"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]
She also wrote a book about Prosperity spells. Does she sound like she can make it work? She can't even afford a hairdresser! My wife just spent $100 at the beauty parlor and we're far from rich.
Here's another quote from that same book:
"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."
If you want to really have a good life, ditch the occult.

First, your post is almost impossible to read due to misspelling.
However, I think you're looking for an alchemy spell.
Most of what you find on the net isn't very good, and you need to have at least basic experience in shielding, drawing energy, etc.
Remember, Alchemy and High Magic are not like Wicca and other Magic - the rules are not the same, and the consequences can be higher, becuase the powers are utilized differently.
Do some research, and then drop a dime on the book you'll need. But high magic isn't for beginners. it requires serious study (remember Crowley started out in alchemy!)

Alchemy became arguably a fore runner to renowned chemistry, yet had no medical foundation. Supposedly it in contact the hunt for the mythical reality seeker's stone, which might enable the alchemist to coach base metals into gold. The experimentation which occured could have been a efficient element of the medical technique -possibly extraordinarily risky too. The observations made might have led the old experimenters to sort hypotheses with regard to the character of the supplies they have been working with, which could be examined and deliver approximately an understanding of their nature. Chemical reactions at the instant are not prompted by ability of no rely if it particularly is an entire moon or you forged spells. it particularly is generally shown by ability of experimentation. further, we now know that chemical reactions can't regulate the atomic features of the textile. The Curies subtle pitchblend to isolate and extract radium. they did no longer create it from something else. for this reason the unique objective became shown to be unachievable and in accordance with fake hypotheses. that is been kindly pronounced that alchemy grew to become a quest to alter the character of the experimenter, via no longer undemanding artwork and getting to grasp, particularly than to transmute base metals. for this reason the progression of the alchemist's soul became the actual objective. according to hazard they replaced society by ability of giving us smart and sensible products, drugs etc. somebody as quickly as pronounced approximately scientific practices that there is not any such factor as determination drugs, in basic terms drugs which is going and that which does no longer. further, there is not any such factor as "determination" technological awareness. If we do not know the way some organic technique works, filling the gaps in our information by ability of ascribing some supernatural rigidity to that is not an evidence. it particularly is organic superstition and psychological laziness.

Do you really want to be studying such as this?
As there are virtuous and base men and women, there are also virtuous and base metals and airs. Virtuous metals, like virtuous men, are more able to resist corruption. Gold (Au) is incorruptible and is to be found free, pure, and untarnished in the earth. Aluminum (Al) is so base and corruptible as to be little more than common dirt in its natural state.
The baser the air, the greater the power to corrupt metals. So virtuous are the airs of the first degree (C, P, S) that they can take on enduring forms similar to metals. But in the enduring form, airs of the first degree lack strength and their true nature as airs can be revealed by heating. So base are the airs of the third degree (O, Cl, F) that they not only corrupt metals as is their predilection; but, in the absence of metals, will corrupt airs of the first degree and even airs of the second degree (N, H [and H will even corrupt N]).
Metals Airs
Au Virtuous C
Ag P
Hg S
Cu N
Sn H
Pb O
Fe Cl
Al Base F
Corruption of Fe by O via H: H + O -> HO
HO + Fe -> FeO + H
Thus, given a drop of water (HO) on a piece of iron (Fe) all in air (containing O), the O corrupting the H abandons the H for the Fe given the baser air's preference for metal. The abandoned H is then available to be corrupted again by any O in the air.
With impetus (heating), a corrupting air atom may be driven from a metal atom. Baser metals require more impetus to drive off an air than more virtuous metals. Being fickle, an air atom that has been driven off a metal atom by impetus will retain that
impetus. If a baser metal atom is nearby, the air atom with impetus will corrupt the baser metal atom. In so corrupting the baser metal atom, the air atom will give up its impetus. This surrendered impetus can be sufficient to be collected and used by another nearby corrupted but relatively virtuous metal to drive off a corrupting air atom.
