Article 89 - Spell

Canon 4069 (link)

A Spell is a form of words and ritual used for magical purposes to elicit a specific goal regarding one or more persons or spirits. The primary pairs of Spells since ancient times are charm or jinx, bind or break, protect or expose, heal or harm, summons or banish.

Canon 4070 (link)

A Charm Spell traditionally seeks to bring good luck and fortune to a person, while a Jinx Spell seeks to bring bad luck to a person without physical harm.

Canon 4071 (link)

A Bind Spell is a form of Curse that seeks to compel a person to some action otherwise against their will, while a Break Spell or Hex Spell seeks to “break” a Binding or Curse.

Canon 4072 (link)

A Protection Spell seeks to protect a person against Curse and Binding Spells as well as the avoidance of conflict and injury, while an Exposure Curse seeks to remove any protection and leave them vulnerable to curses and harm.

Canon 4073 (link)

A Heal Spell seeks to help a person improve their health, while a Harm Spell is a curse that seeks the physical injury, possibly even death of a person.

Canon 4074 (link)

A Summons Spell seeks to summons a spirit, usually for the purpose of a necromancy ritual, while a Banish Spell seeks to banish a spirit from sight.

Canon 4075 (link)

While many Spells may be invoked with the intention of some positive outcome, all Spells are considered as a whole a negative action on account of the fraudulent nature of most words and rituals, the generally high ignorance of the operator(s) invoking such Spells, the lack of respect to spirits and the Divine and the lack of consent and right of free will of those attempted to be spelled.

Canon 4076 (link)

Contrary to the false presumptions claimed within magic texts, a Spell is not required to counteract a Spell. This is because ignorance cannot trump ignorance. Instead knowledge, prayer, confession and exposure are infinitely more powerful tools.

Canon 4077 (link)

The strength of Spells as with the strength of any kind of Magic is the same as any Cult, in promoting general ignorance amongst the population to promote superstition and fear.

Canon 4078 (link)

No Spell can withstand the blinding light of Divine Truth. No Curse Spell can withstand the truth of these canons, nor the Divinity of the most sacred Covenant Pactum De Singularis Caelum.
