It is said to be easier to cast a spell on yourself than on someone else. A spell cast on another is said to affect the caster as well. A spell is sometimes said to affect the caster three times as much as the target. A more powerful spell may actually affect the caster nine times as much as the target. Experts warn novices to be careful with that strong magick.
Tools used in Witchcraft for casting spells are candles, incense, pentagrams, and water.
These tools represent earth, air, fire, and water. The pentagram represents earth. Spells are usually done on a mat or cloth with a pentagram on it. The candle flame represents fire. Candle color is very important to most spells.
