Tarot card magic and tarot card magic spells – sounds witchy and exciting! The nuts and bolts of magic is about focus, and some might say bringing your subconscious mind on board with your will.
Tarot cards use symbolism the unconscious can jive with making Tarot cards a tantalizingly useful tool of magic.
A simple magic spell for use with Tarot cards is to glue a Tarot card or Tarot card image on a 7 day candle. Here in Texas, we can buy the plain white 7 day candles in the grocery store. If your grocery store doesn’t carry them, your local botanica will.

Get as creative as you want with your tarot card images and your candle. Glue the Tarot card image to the candle along with tissue paper, washi tape, bedazzling jewels or whatever will enhance your spell.
On the “backside” of the candle, glue an incantation appropriate to what you are intending to conjure.
