We've covered common spells, we've covered insta-spells.
More powerful yet, and ones that I've only thought about in theoretical terms and not even tried to create yet, and Archetype Spells.
These would take a team and probably decades to put in place. These are the type of spells taught in Harry Potter - do a hand motion JUST SO while saying a word or two JUST SO.
My theory is that doing this takes the insta-spell set up, plugs it into a superior source of power, and makes it so anyone can pull the trigger. One person or a group can create it and get it to the insta-spell stage. From there the rest of the group works on it, maybe daily, certainly at least at certain times of the month, to make it universal. All using the same Otherworld set up, all using the same gesture and words. Maybe it has to be taught by 'apostolic succession' - those who created it taught others, who then taught others. Could the apostolic succession take place in dreams? Sure, why not - plenty of sacred stories show that happening. It's a way that can't be relied on, but WOULD explain the re-discovery of types of magic long lost that are being recovered. Ivo Dominguez, Jr, talks about inspiration he's gotten that sounds much like that in his book "Castings: Creating Sacred Space" - recently released by Weiser books! Yay Ivo! Yay Ankhie (the Weiser logo is an Ankh).
Ultimately I suppose that the spell would move from servitor to egregor ....
Of course I'd like to see these type of spells being done again. Will it happen in the next astrological age? Dunno. I'm quite sure I won't be creating any this life time!

Personal Pre-set Spells
Blessings Darlings!
We now come to the second type of spells I want to go over - pre-set spells, activated by word or motion and intent. These are the spells done by wand-work in the Harry Potter series .... or maybe the power-filled rings/fire sticks, etc, of the Dresden File book series.
For these you set up a the magic, empower it and an object, and have a 'trigger' on it that you set off with that word/motion. They are set up by the individual who later squeezes the trigger.
Given the stories of magic that have survived, it might be possible to do some really fancy work with these. Like Moses' staff level of magic (and, damn, what WAS Moses' real name?) I can't do that level of magic, that's for sure.
But I CAN do lower level stuff.
Shielding falls into this category for me. For this blog post I'm assuming that you know how to do at least basic shielding. For beginners, it takes TIME to set up a good shield. Ground. Center. Draw in magical energy (do you tap it, do you raise it? Ah, a post for some other day there!) Ooops, gotta decied what they shield is going to protect you against! What shape does it take? What material? Okay, now to energize it .... and how long does the energizing last?
But every time you go thru' that process, you are leaving a mark in the Other Worlds. With each repetition of the same type of shield, that mark gets a stronger and clearer form. Over time, to do the same working - but with more power behind it - all you have to do is say/focus on one word and give it a shot of intent and power. One moment .... and your house is protected for a two-week vacation One touch .... and your car avoids both tickets and yet is seen by everyone clearly so no one even dinks your door while opening theirs.
Or it just ups the power, which isn't bad either. I've mentioned my healing cauldron. Well, it's part of a healing altar. Darn near every day (not today, ironically) I work at that altar, lighting a candle and doing healing magic. Every day that Flame and energy gets added to a form in the Other Worlds. As is "Tho' this candle burns no more in this world (snuff candle) it shall burn forever in the Worlds Beyond.". And I do the magic to actually ADD another candle flame to the ever-growing design of candles in the Healing Area I have going on the Other Side. Growing power - and a more clearly beaten path TO that area of power.
