Angelic Charm to Break all Enchantments and Protect from Injury
To work this charm, you need only sit with your cat in your bedchamber under Bride's new moon, watching the stars. Have a little phial of rose water ay your elbow, made holy by a blessing. Speak thus to the great angel Sophiel:

Shining Angel Sophiel
Work for me this goodly spell,
All glamour and evil enchantments break
And guard me when I sleep and wake;
Bless my friendship with this cat.
May our hearts ne'er closeness lack.

Take the phial or rose-water and anoint your animal friend with three drops. The cat is likely to clean herself, which is a fortunate sign. Listen in your heart to the wisdom your friend will impart to you for you shall share many secrets, and she shall reveal unto you many things which you could learn from no other source.

Binding
The purpose of this spell is to rid yourself of the negative energies of someone who is mentally or emotionally abusing you. If done properly, it will not harm the object of the spell nor will it affect his or her daily life in any way. It will simply make the person powerless to mentally or emotionally harm you.
Materials:
Small cloth doll, leave the head unstitched until you are ready to begin the ritual
Needle and thread
Some personal item from the person you want to bind (fingernail clippings, hair, handwriting sample)
Black ribbon
Black candle
Cauldron or other fireproof container
Sterilized needle
Piece of paper and pen
One candle at each quarter (optional)
Ritual:
Call the quarters - I like to use candles at each quarter to form a circle of fire for extra protection.
Light the black candle
Concentrating deeply on the person you are binding, place the personal object inside the head of the doll and sew it shut.
Tie the black ribbon around the poppet's head, signifying the binding of that person.
''With harm to none, my will be done
I hereby bind you (name of person)
Your words cannot harm me
Your thoughts cannot harm me
You cannot harm me''
Continue chanting this or something like it until you feel power surging through you. Visualize the person helpless to slander or verbally and mentally abuse you while you are chanting.
Now, to bind the spell -
If you have a sigil or a Craft name, sign it on the small piece of paper. If not, sign your own full name. If others are working the ritual with you, they too should sign the paper.
With the sterilized needle, prick one of your fingers and put a small drop of blood over your signature. Again, if others are working with you, they should place a drop of blood over their signatures. (using a different needle, of course)
Fold the paper, light it on fire and drop it into the cauldron (which should be on a heat-proof surface!).
Meditate on the flames until the paper completely burns away. If you are working with a group, join hands at this point and feel the power surging around the circle as the spell is bound.
Ground and center
Release the circle. Thank the Goddess and God for their protection and power
Bury the doll as far away from you as possible within the next few days.

Spell for Bullies
This is used to stop people who are bullying or upsetting you and hopefully to make them friends.
You wil need:
1 Glass bowl full with water.
1 pinch of sugar
Blossom petals (any color will do)

Protection Spell
This is a spell to protect a person from the criticism and hate of another.

This spell can be done during any phase of the moon
You must have something that is connected to the person, like a piece of
handwriting, a picture, hair, etc. Place this in a container, and set
it aflame. While it is burning, chant:

Away from me Away from me Away from me Away from me

This spell won't keep the person away, but you will have a friendlier
relationship with them than before.

House Protection Mirror Spell
Compose an altar: place a censer in the center before and image of the Goddess. Have a twelve-inch (or so) round mirror there as well. Ring the altar with nine white candles. Burn a protective incense (such as sandalwood, frankincense, copal or rosemary) in the censer.

Beginning with the candle most directly before the Goddess image, say these or similar, say these or similar words:

Lunar light protect me!

Repeat as you light each candle until all are glowing.

Now, holding the mirror, invoke the Goddess in Her lunar aspect with these or similar words:

Great Goddess of the Lunar Light
and Mistress of the Seas;
Great Goddess of the mystic night
and of the mysteries;
Within this place of candles bright
And with your mirror nigh;
Protect me with your awesome might
While ill vibrations fly!

Standing before the altar, hold the mirror facing the candles so that it reflects their flames. Keeping the mirror toward the candles, move slowly, clockwise, around the altar, watching the reflected firelight bouncing off your surroundings.

Gradually increase your speed, mentally invoking the Goddess to protect you. Move faster and faster; watch the light shattering the air, cleansing it, burning away all negativity and all lines along which the ill energies have traveled into your home.

Charge your home with the protective light of the Goddess. Race around the candles until you've felt the atmosphere change, until you feel that your home has been cleansed and guarded by the Great Goddess.

When finished, stand once again before the image. Thank the Goddess in any words you wish. Pinch out the candles one by one, bind them together with white chord and store them in a safe place until (and if) you need to use them again for this same purpose.

To Bar Negative Entry
1 oz. (25 grams) Ground Cumin
1 lb. (500 grams) Sea Salt

Mix well.
Start at the end of the driveway, beginning to the East, and go completely around the property, strewing along the edges of the property. Be sure you complete the circle and rejoin where you started.

To Protect Possessions
Walk 11 times around the object you wish to protect and say each time:
Protected from Harm
Who breaks this charm
Will fall away
Then disappear to Nothingness

Leave Me Alone Spell
What you'll need are two image candles - one to represent you and one to represent him. (if you don't have access to image candles, one in your favorite color for you and in his favorite color for him will do just fine). Also, you'll need a white candle, a ribbon that you can snip easily, and a surface to do all of this on ( a cookie sheet is usually a good surface if you can get a hold of one of the deeper kind).

Now, take the candle that represents you and with the tip of a knife or an iron nail (previously unused) inscribe your name. On the one to represent him/her, inscribe his/her name. On the white candle, inscribe as follows: "That which will make (his/her name) happier than he/she thinks that I will."  Take the candles and place on the cookie sheet and tie the ribbon around each candle to connect all three. Then light the candles that represent the two of you, and let them burn for a few minutes.  Light the white candle, and say these words: "You feel something drawing you away from me, and of me you wish to be free."  Cut the ribbon between the candle that represents you and he/she, and leave the ribbon between his/her candle and the white candle connected, and take the candle that represents you and march it further from his/her candle, saying these words:
"You feel something replace the need you have for me, and as I do will so mote
it be!" 

Take your candle off the sheet entirely and let his/her candle and the white candle burn out.  You can either put yours out or let it burn in a holder across the room.. whatever makes you feel more comfortable.  When both the other candles have burned out, if there is any candle wax left over, put it in a brown paper bag and wrapped with anything you might have that has some connection to the person you are sending away.  If possible, bury it on their property, or simply dispose of the remains nearby them, but away from you.

To Make Someone Leave you Alone
This is a variation on a popular spell used to stop someone from harming or bothering you. This must be performed during a waning moon.
On a piece of parchment or recycled paper, write the name and birthdate of the person you are wishing "away".
Now fill an air-tight container (like a baby food jar or tupperware container) with water. Add a pinch of one or more of these magical herbs: ash tree leaves, clover, lovage, lilac, garlic clove. Take the paper with the name on it and fold it three times. Tie a black string or thread around it and drop it in the water. Seal the container up and bury it in a safe spot in your garden, yard or flower box..
Once the person has left you alone or no longer poses a problem to you, open the container and empty it to the earth. Keep the container instead of leaving it to Mother Earth.

A Ward for a Ring
Place the ring in the North of the room you wish to cast the spell in. Place around it stones and symbols of earth. Take the  ring and in a shell or crystal dish filled with water mix some salt in. Say over this

Creature of earth, I beseech of thee. Protection from harm is what I wish for me. In to you this ring I place, bind the protection well and to evil give chase.

Leave the ring in overnight in the light of the full moon and in the morning wash the salt water off, clear everything away and wear it!

To remove the spell, place it  in the south and say "With thanks for protection given I now wish this spell riven!" and leave it there overnight in a window during a new moon.

A Spell to Bind Evil
To use this spell you must be able to picture the evil you wish to bind within your head. It is very important to be able to see strands or bonds or knots that hold it together. Those are what you are going to release slowly. Do note that this spell can take a long time depending on the strength and complexity of the evil. You must imagine yourself undoing the knots or bonds and then say outloud as many times as needed:

I bind this evil from doing harm
To those around us
And itself
I bind it to be free
But not harmful.

It is very IMPORTANT that you realize that you MUST do this slowly. If you do it quickly and try to overwhelm the evil it could overwhelm you or just manisfest on it's evil on the energy you are giving out. If you plan to do this spell please be very careful and know that it is very draining.

Witches Bottle
(protection from ALL harm)
This recipe came from Crystals Sands, etc. Catazine

Take a mason jar and put pins, needles, razor blades, cactus spines, rose thorns, broken glass, etc. in it. Prick your finger and let at least 3 drops of your blood into jar (this binds the jar to you). While making the bottle concentrate your thoughts on what you are doing. Urinate in the bottle and seal it well. Dig a hole and put it in it and say:

"Lord of Life, Lady of Light - Join me here for this rite
I have made this bottle for my protection
According to ancient ways and tradition.
Direct all harm sent my way - To this grave I make today.
Return it three fold to the send - And let my life ever be better
Open my ears to hear and my eyes to see
As I will, So Mote It Be!"

To Protect an Object
With the first and middle fingers, trace a pentagram over the object to be
protected.  Visualize electric blue or purple flame streaming from your
fingers to form the pentagram.  Say this as you trace: 

With this pentagram I lay 
Protection here both night and day. 
And the one who should not touch 
Let his fingers burn and twitch 
I now invoke the law of three: 
This is my will, so mote it be!

Spell of the Witch's Ring
-by Raven Grimassi
This is a simple spell designed to charge a ring that will serve as protection. The preparation of the Witch's ring should begin two days before the first night of the Full Moon. Midnight is best but nine in the evening will do if necessary. The spell calls for a ring with a stone setting. Consult a table of occult correspondences for a stone that you wish to form an alignment with. Once you have the ring you desire to use, then perform the following ritual.
Consecrate the ring to the four elements. To do this, simply prepare four bowls. Pour salt into one bowl, and place smoking incense in another. In the third bowl set a lighted red votive candle. Pour clean water into the last bowl. Then touch the ring to each bowl saying: "I consecrate thee by earth (salt), air (incense), fire (votive candle), and water (water bowl)."

Pour a small amount of personal cologne in your burning dish. Light the fluid. Hold the ring over the flame, turning it, and chanting:

I dedicate and consecrate this ring with a stone of _____ and metal of _____ to be a ring of Witchery unto me with the powers of the Goddess three, the Lady of all Witchery, and as my word so mote it be.

Place an incense of the Moon in a bowl and light it. Set a bottle of Moon oil nearby. Hold the ring over the incense, passing it through the smoke three times. Then anoint the ring with th oil. Wrap the ring in a red cloth or tissue paper and leave it for three nights in a place where the Moon will shine on it each night, at the same hour (at least one hour after sundown on an odd-numbered hour.)
Chant the following over the ring (still in the red wrapping):

Any and all who perfect an image of me, with my likeness or as a crude consecrated image to be me, to do me bodily harm or to injure me spiritually and try to take my breath away, to cause me to dwindle or pine, pine away to nothing, to wish evil up on me, to badger me with their anger or bad thoughts, by picture, image, or name, the ring of my Lady protect me, metal and stone, flesh and bone, safe forever in you powers, free from evil, fear, or despair, on the sender of the evil will rebound by the law of the Lady thrice crowned, hearken all unto me, as I speak, so mote it be.

Wear the ring whenever you are in a ritual setting, or whenever you feel the need for protection. On the night of each Full Moon thereafter, anoint the ring again by rubbing a drop of oil on the stone. Then raise the ring upward toward the Moon and ask for blessings in the name of the Goddess.

Protection from Fire
To protect your home from the ravages of a devastating fire, place some mistletoe in a blue drawstring bag, douse it thoroughly with cold, clear water, & then immediately hang it in the "heart" of the house - where you & your family spend most of your time.

Or, light a piece of wood & burn to ash. Wet the ashes, let them dry, & hang in a blue drawstring bag. It is done.
-Witches Brew

To Reverse a Hex
"Spell, spell, spell be gone!
Back to which ye belong.
Back to the caster
Take your disaster"

OR

"Thinking of me
But just the same
Return this spell
From whence it came
Upon my safety, I do hold
Send the damage, return threefold!"

Three Times Three Spell
This is a three times three spell to use on people who were corrupt in their ways. It has no negative consequence unless you think ill of the person while casting the spell.

Wind in the north, run through the trees
Three times three, let them see, let them see
Sands of the east, rich soils beneath
Three times three, set them free, set them free
Fires in the south, awaken from sleep
Three times three, let them see, let them see
Water of the west, flow to the seas
Three times three, set them free, set them free

It works best if you have something representing that person, like a strand of their hair or a fingernail. The spell may not work instantaneously, you may have to repeat it for the person to see error in their ways. Please be sure you're not being hypocritical, because that may cause negative feedback.. So, all warnings given, blessed be!
