A spell is a set of words, actions, or rituals believed to invoke supernatural powers or effects. Often associated with magic, spells can be found in various cultures and traditions, ranging from ancient witchcraft to modern Wicca. They are typically used for purposes such as healing, protection, or transformation. Spells can involve the use of specific ingredients, symbols, or tools, like candles, crystals, or herbs. Practitioners, known as spellcasters or sorcerers, may perform spells alone or in groups, often during specific times, such as full moons or solstices, to enhance their effectiveness.
