Making a good spell is like baking a good cake; you must include the right ingredients, in the right amounts and cook them for a certain amount of time.

Magic works in a similar fashion. Correspondences allow you to determine which herbs, elements, days, moon phases etc. are appropriate to mix together to reach your desired result. This section shows you the main areas of correspondence that are commonly used when preparing to work with deities, spells or rituals.

The links for herbs, deities, spells and rituals are also included here, as are links to the divination (readings) section, and astrology, so that you can determine the likelihood of success of your workings.
