Wiccans are prohibited by their belief system from engaging in spells or other activities which harm others. This is a logical result of Wiccans' belief in the three-fold law, and their commitment to follow the Wiccan Rede -- their prime rule of behavior:

Three-fold Law: "All good that a person does to another returns three-fold in this life; harm is also returned three-fold."
The Wiccan Rede: "An it harm none, do what thou wilt." (In modern English: "Do whatever you wish as long as it harms no one.")

What is a Spell?

Spells are closely related to prayers, in that they both are a means of petitioning a deity or deities for a particular desired outcome, and which require the visualization of the goal, statement of desire for the goal and ritualized movements or body positions, such as the bowing of the head, the folding or clasping of hands, or shutting of the eyes, etc.

Spells are also closely related to the various methods of employing the powers of the mind, such as "creative visualization," "positive thinking," and "positive imaging." Such methods help the one casting the spell to enhance his mental imagery so that he can better identify with these images and form a clear goal. The person repeats his intention to achieve the particular goal and combines it with the projection of his will and the invocation of the aid of the spirits, deities or Divine Force.

How is a Spell Cast?

A spell-casting ritual involves the raising of power through the combination of visualization, incantation (the statement of goal), petition of the deities and projection of the will. It is thought that the success of the spell rests on the power and will raised and the skill with which they are focused and projected. All of these powers go into spell casting. Things aiding spell casting include words, chants, songs, movements or dance which may be accompanied by the use of objects such as ritual tools, effigies, poppets, cords, candles, and nail clippings.
