No one can cast “spells.” There is no such thing.

Um, yes people do cast spells, and that’s one of them selling the service.

How effective each person’s spells are, and what all the repercussions may be, vary.

(Of course, here you will hear many answers from people very very invested in protesting that it’s absolutely impossible any sort of magic ever existed anywhere, and they really truly utterly know that for certain because materialist skepticism so utterly objectively manages to prove this negative despite that being a logical fallacy. Which is . . . not only very ironically non-scientific, but even more ironically, a kind of spell in itself. Ah well.)

I don’t know her so I can’t directly answer the question, but I would be skeptical and wary.

Something seeming like magic doesn’t mean it IS magic.

You can visit an apiarist and get some enchanted winged insects. Then you would have spelling bees.

Probably not but maybe worth a first time fee as entertainment with your friends.

For free? Is that followed by “this spell will achieve 100% of its effect if you pay me 100000$”?

Moroccan Princess? She’ll be sending you a “friend request” next, wanting to hop on a plane with her mom. Scammers abound.

You’ve inverted the burden of proof. Unicorns are real. Prove me wrong—see what I did there?

@AsksQuestions I have no idea if this person is actually performing some spell casting activity or just taking the money. I do have a high level of confidence that giving this person money will not change anything for you other than your credit card balance.

@Dutchess_III Anyone can cast spells. Actually working magic is not possible, but casting spells works just as well as saying prayers.

Dutchess_III's avatar

I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or serious @YARNLADY….

Dutchess_III's avatar

In which case I totally agree @YARNLADY. Casting spells works as well as prayers.
