Do Spells Really Work? A Tarot Reader's Guide to Manifestation

One of the most common questions I receive is, "Do spells really work?" People want to know if they can use magic to attract love, money, or success. The short answer is yes, absolutely. But it's crucial to understand that a spell is not about cosmic puppetry; it's about focused intention.

What is a Spell?

A spell is a ritualized act of focusing your energy and intention toward a specific outcome. It's a powerful form of prayer or meditation that uses symbolism (candles, herbs, crystals) to amplify your own manifestation power. You are not bending the universe to your will; you are aligning your own energy with the universal flow to attract your desire.

The Key Ingredients for an Effective Spell

For a spell to be effective, it requires several key components:

  • Clarity of Intention: You must know exactly what you are asking for. Vague intentions yield vague results.
  • Emotional Energy: You must feel the reality of your desire as if it has already happened. This is the fuel for the spell.
  • Symbolic Acts: Lighting a specific colored candle, anointing it with oil, or arranging crystals are not just for show. These acts focus your mind and commit your energy to the intention.
  • Release and Trust: After performing the ritual, you must release the outcome to the universe, trusting that it will unfold in the highest good.

How Tarot and Spells Work Together

Tarot is the perfect partner for spellwork. A tarot reading can help you get crystal clear on your true desires, identify any energetic blocks standing in your way, and determine the most effective timing for your ritual. It provides the roadmap; the spell provides the fuel. Many of my Intuitive Coaching + Tarot Sessions focus on creating these exact kinds of personalized rituals.
