How Witches Prevent Fear and Self-Doubt from Strangling Their Spells


My first spells did not go well. What was the problem? Actually, two things. Fear and self-doubt.

I have three insights for you.

1. Fear keeps you on the mountain. Fear empowers you to prepare.

Imagine that you’re going to climb a mountain. What supplies would you bring? Rope, carabiners, and a climbing harness.

The same is true for your magickal practice. You bring supplies. You cast a protective circle around your workspace. Make sure to have all your items before starting. Then, you won’t have to break the Circle once it is cast.

Have a script and things like a fire extinguisher handy in case things don’t go as planned. (I am not kidding.) Be sure that you properly dismiss the elements at the end of your spell.

Your script should also have protection clauses including:

  • An it harm none.
  • For the good of all involved.
  • For this or better.

Being concerned about mistakes invites you to prepare well. That is a good use of fear.

2. Shift from having self-doubt and imagining the worst to a positive intention.

Before you even write your spells, it is good to shift from imagining the worst. You need to keep a positive intention. If you don’t, your spell will likely do a belly flop on you.

It puts doubt into the equation. Instead, keep a positive frame of mind. This helps keep your spells, rituals, and rites on track to good outcomes.

3. Ask the Gods to guide you to the best outcomes.

Here is a prayer you can express to set the appropriate energy.

Mighty Gods,
Keep my intentions positive and good.
Defend me from self-doubt,
So I have a positive turnabout.
So Mote It Be.

May these insights support your path.

Blessed Be,
Moonwater
