Choosing Your Spell Space

,

Choosing a spell space is an important consideration for the spell to be successful. Your spell space should be a location where your intentions will not be disturbed and you can concentrate.


Your location affects you and therefore, it will affect your spell. Spells can be cast anywhere but you would be wise to choose a space and situation with the following considerations. 

Set the mood in your spell space

A quiet location where you will not be disturbed is the ideal choice. If choosing a location outside make sure it it is somewhere out of the way, and inspires your mood.  Privacy is essential as the last thing you want is to be disturbed when casting your spell. If your spell space is your private own space, choose a room in the house that you feel most relaxed in such as the bedroom. If your garden is your chosen spell space you could create a temporary altar using candles, plants, and incense. You could also give offerings of wine and bread.
