Are there easy spells where you dont have to use candles?

Answer 1

To be simple, yes. Pagans can cast spells using nothing but their own energies if that is what must be done. However, the use of stones, herbs, incense, candles, symbols, chants, etc. can allow the spell caster to amplify their powers and concentration on the desired goal(s). I have seen a witch cast powerful magic on the fly with no need for anything other than her own energy. I am not focused enough to do it without any help, but herb bags make for a great alternative to candles. Find the herbs with the properties for the spell you want to cast and collect them all in a bag. Charge them with your energy and then when the time comes for the spell, you call on them along with your own powers to cast.

I was forced to do this many times in college because they didn't allow the burning of anything in the rooms, be it candles or incense.

Answer 2

All a true practitioner of the Craft needs to cast a spell, is their mind, their hand and their will.

The mind has to have the appropriate knowledge, the practice to properly preform the spell, and the ethics to have checked the true motivation for doing the work.

The hand guides the power of the spell.

The will causes the spell to take form.

All the rest of it, the candles, the oils, the incense, the crystals, the powders, the robes, the tools, everything is superfluous.

I'm not saying it isn't sometimes easier to have all that stuff, but you do not NEED it to cast a spell.
