I Cast My First Spell of Will: What Happened Next

BY NICOLE LAU

Three months ago, I cast my first spell. I was nervous, uncertain, and didn't know if I was "doing it right." But I used the First Spell of Will kit, spoke my truth, and trusted the process. This is what happened next.

My First Spell

What I Declared

"I will create work that aligns with my soul and supports me abundantly."

The Ritual

New Moon in Capricorn. Candle lit. Wrote my statement with shaking hands. Placed it on the sigil. Played the audio. Visualized. Spoke: "My will is spoken. So it is."

Immediate Feeling

Something shifted. I felt different. More certain. Like I'd crossed a threshold. My magic had begun.

What Happened - Month by Month

Month 1: The Shift

  • Week 1: Felt more confident and clear
  • Week 2: Opportunity appeared from unexpected source
  • Week 3: Said yesβ€”it felt aligned
  • Week 4: Work beganβ€”it DID align with my soul
  • Result: $2,500 from aligned work

Month 2: The Momentum

  • More aligned opportunities appearing
  • Saying no to what doesn't align became easy
  • Work supporting me abundantly
  • Result: $5,000 from soul-aligned work

Month 3: The Manifestation

  • My will fully manifested
  • Creating work I love
  • Abundantly supported
  • Result: $7,500+ monthly from aligned work

Total Results

  • $15,000+ in 3 months
  • All from soul-aligned work
  • Complete career transformation
  • My first spell worked

What I Learned

Lesson 1: You Don't Need to Know Everything

I didn't know if I was doing it "right." I just spoke my truth clearly. That was enough.

Lesson 2: Clarity Is Power

My spell wasn't complex. It was clear. "I will..." Simple. Powerful. Effective.

Lesson 3: The Universe Responds to Will

When you speak your willβ€”not your hope, your WILLβ€”the universe listens and responds.

Lesson 4: Your First Spell Is Sacred

This wasn't just a spell. It was a threshold. The moment my magic began. The moment I became a practitioner.

Your First Spell Awaits

You don't need to be experienced. You don't need to know everything. You just need to speak your will clearly and trust.

Get the First Spell of Will kit. Cast your spell. Begin your magic. Watch what happens next. For deepening your practice, I've found the 40 Manifestation Rituals guide invaluable for weaving intention into daily life, and the Sacred Space Cleanse ritual helps keep the energetic field bright between workings. The 13 New Moon Rituals workbook is a beautiful companion for timing your magic with the lunar cycle, just as I did with my Capricorn new moon.

More Ways to Deepen Your Practice

If you've ever felt like your practice isn't going deep enough β€”
like your mind stays busy, your body never fully settles, or the space around you feels distracting β€”
it's often not about discipline.

It's about environment.

The right environment doesn't just support your practice β€” it becomes part of it.
When space, scent, sound, and intention align, the shift in awareness happens more naturally and more deeply.

Imagine this:
sacred symbols on the walls, soft fabric against your skin, a steady place to sit.
A match is struck. Smoke rises β€” bergamot, frankincense β€” something ancient and grounding.
Sound moves quietly in the background, and time begins to slow.

You don't force the state.
You arrive in it.

This is what a ritual feels like when every element is aligned.

If you want to make your practice feel like this, start simple:

You don't need everything.
Just one element can change the entire experience.

The tools that help create this space β€” and how to use them in your own practice:

Tapestries

Sacred symbols woven into fabric become silent guardians of the space β€” helping the mind cross the threshold from the ordinary into the sacred. Designed to anchor your ritual environment and hold energetic intention throughout your practice.

Yoga Mats

A dedicated surface signals to body and spirit alike: this is where the work begins. Everything else falls away. Built for comfort and stability, so your body can settle fully while your awareness expands.

Audio Meditations

Let sound do what the mind cannot do alone. In the stillness it creates, intuition finds its voice. Guided sessions crafted to deepen receptivity, clear mental noise, and prepare you for meaningful spiritual work.

Ritual Kits

When the tools are already gathered, the only thing left is intention. Light something. Begin. Thoughtfully assembled sets that bring together everything needed for a complete, intentional ceremony.

Personal Practice Journals

Every reading, every vision, every quiet knowing β€” written down before the ordinary world reclaims it. Structured to support reflection, pattern recognition, and the long-term deepening of your practice.

Apparel

What you wear into a ritual becomes part of it. Soft, intentional, yours. Designed for ease of movement and energetic comfort, from morning meditation to evening ceremony.

Aromatherapy Candles

A flame changes a room. Let the scent that rises with it mark the beginning of something set apart from the rest of the day. Formulated with sacred botanicals to cleanse energy, anchor intention, and deepen meditative states.

Books

Some knowledge can only be absorbed slowly, over many readings. Let the right book become a companion to your practice. Curated titles spanning mysticism, ritual, and esoteric wisdom β€” to take your understanding further.
