Step One: Decide exactly what you want your spell to do. Do you want your love to come back go away stay? Make sure you are very clear with your intent. You will be the one the spell affects so be very sure what effect you want the spell to accomplish.
Step Two: What ingredients will you need is your spell a candle spell, do you need more herbs or certain herbs you do not have. Make sure you have all the supplies you need before you cast your love spell.
Step Three: Cast the circle. Wherever you decide, it should be purified/Cleanesed. Casting a circle is how you store energy until the right moment to release that energy towards your goal.
Step Four: Start your spell with calling your elements, or any god/goddess/ spiritual guides that best fit the spell you wish to cast.
Step Five: Make sure you close the circle It is very important you do not leave the circle until your activity is complete, and without properly closing it. When your spell is complete you must close the circle.
These are general steps to casting a love spell. Always remember the law of karma what ever you send out comes back times three. Be very careful with love spells. You should never try to effect any ones free will. You have to be cautious when using spells. Love spells are very powerful and will be out of your control once they are done.
