Question hello im having issues with my ex boyfriend and he just broke up with me recently telling me that he wanted to start over fresh as friends and that he wants to think about his life but now he left me and went with this other girl he just met and shes a wiccan and im scared that she might have put a spell on him and i dont know what to do is there any spell i can use or something to bring him back to me.
Answer It is unethical, within the Wiccan belief system, to use spellwork to either 1) compell someone to love you against their will or 2) to harm another person. Therefore, in much the same way I am confident your ex boyfriends new partner did not use magick on either of you; I am also unwilling to provide you with a spell to do it either.
