Black magic spells to master

Greetings, dear seeker. I am Amira Asmodea, an elder witch who has danced with many kinds of magic in her time. Today, I invite you to learn about a particularly intimate and potent craft: a black magic spell that uses moving candles to weave love and connection.

Now, black magic often carries a heavy reputation, but in my experience, it’s simply a way to work with the deeper, shadowy aspects of energy and intention. This spell is not about harm, but about gentle influence, using the natural flow of attraction and submission energies. I’ve seen it used thoughtfully and respectfully, always with an understanding of personal boundaries.

What is this black magic spell for?

Simply put, this spell helps you gently soften the will of another, whether man or woman, so that their affection and attention lean toward you. Traditionally, candle magic involves stationary candles burning on an altar, but this spell calls for something a little different: moving the candles during the ritual to guide energy along a path—quite literally, the path between two people.

This movement symbolizes drawing someone closer to you, enticing connection and creating a magical bridge of feelings. The candles are like little beacons of your desire, traveling through space to influence the one you wish to attract or bind with. The physical movement enhances your mental focus and the flow of energy, deepening the spell’s power.

Gathering your materials

To work this spell, you'll need some simple but meaningful items:

• A male candle
• A female candle
• An oil known for love energy, such as lime or almond oil

If you’re able, candles shaped like human figures add a personal touch. Carving them yourself, shaping one as a man and the other as a woman, deepens your connection to the spell. In my experience, red candles are best here — vibrant with the passion and power to influence the heart.

How to perform the spell

Choose a new moon Friday to begin. The new moon is a time for fresh starts and new intentions, while Friday is traditionally ruled by love and Venus energy — perfect for this kind of work.

First, carefully write your name on your candle, and the name of the person you wish to draw closer on their candle. If you don't have a particular individual in mind, you may write "my lover" on the second candle instead.

Anoint both candles with your chosen love oil. This blesses them with the fragrant energy you wish to invite. Then, place them on a metal tray, positioned about 15 centimeters apart facing one another.

Using a bit of oil on your fingertip, draw a visible or invisible line from the other person’s candle toward yours. This simple gesture symbolizes the pull you wish to create.

Light both candles and say firmly, "I command you." Focus your mind on the person, imagining their affection growing for you. Let the flames burn for about seven minutes, holding your attention steady. Then extinguish them gently—don’t blow, instead use your fingers or a metal spoon to snuff the flames. This helps preserve the spell's energy.

Continuing through the week

Return each evening for seven nights, repeating the ritual: light the candles, say the command, and each night move the person's candle a little closer to yours. This gradual movement mirrors the slow drawing of hearts together, not forcing but inviting.

Concentration is the key throughout. Your steady focus fuels the magic more than words or objects ever could. Think of this as a spiritual dance, where you lead gently, and the energies follow.

The final night

On the seventh and last night, light the candles as usual but let them burn out completely on their own. Once the wax has cooled, gather the remnants and bury them in your backyard or in a pot filled with soil if you don’t have garden space. This grounding act seals your spell into the earth, where it can quietly grow and work beneath the surface.

Spirit and soul behind the spell

In many traditions, candle magic is more than the sum of its parts — it’s a ritual in which you align your intention, energy, and spirit to shape what you desire. The moving candle spell calls upon the energy of both light and shadow, love and control, attraction and submission.

But remember, magic is a reflection of the heart’s truth and respect for others’ free will. Use this spell mindful of that balance, and with honesty in your intentions. It is a tool, not a command over another’s soul.

By working this spell, you practice your will, your focus, and your connection with the unseen threads that link souls and energies. It’s a powerful experience that teaches the importance of patience, respect, and conscious choice.

Questions readers often ask

Can I do this spell if I am not heterosexual? Absolutely. The spell works for all orientations. Use the candles that reflect your intended connection — two female shapes, two male shapes, or one of each. Your intention and connection to the ritual matter most.

What if I don't have carved candles? Plain candles work just as well. Simply write the names on the candles to personalize them. The carving is an optional way to deepen your connection with the objects.

Do I have to do this weekend ritual on a new moon Friday? It’s traditionally ideal because of the energies involved, but if timing doesn’t work, choose a quiet night when you can focus fully, preferably Friday or Saturday, under any moon phase.

Is this spell safe? When done with respect and care, this spell is about influencing energies rather than forcing outcomes. Always be mindful of the other person’s autonomy and your own heart’s sincere desires.

With affection and ancient blessings, Amira.
