A Brief Communication Spell Discussion

Hey Occulties,

So, a few people have asked this recently, and it's quite a valid question to have…. "If you do communication work on someone, isn't there a risk of them not communicating what you want them to say?" 

Yes. Yes there is. I can remember some years ago having a reader who told me that she had done a communication spell on her very-recent ex, and he called her to explicitly tell her how much he hated her. They'd broken up less than a week before she did the work, and the call came a day or so after she had completed the work. I had a client some years ago as well who had done a communication spell to get someone to reach out. He did…he had some question about her electricity (apparently they were using the same company or on the same grid or etc?) and it was hugely unromantic. 😦 I have a lot of these stories. Because communication work? It is designed to get someone communicating….and there it is. Communicating, not pledging their love, not begging forgiveness, but just communicating through talk or type or written word. 

This means if you want your ex to reach out and just speak to you, that you want to use communication work in a more "supportive" sense, meaning your main aim would be to RECONCILE this person, because just using communication on a person who is feeling sorely towards you could manifest as them just telling you off. 😛 Do the reconciliation work, or the love drawing work, first then, and then a week or two later, (or heck, a month later, if they've not reached out,) do the communication work. The best scenario is them reaching out because that love/reconciliation work is making them feel pulled to do so, the application of communication work is best used in this situation if the target seems to be holding back or afraid to speak up about the feelings the love/reconciliation work has drawn up in them. However, if you're of a mind to do this all in "one shot" (so do all the work at the same time,) just keep in mind that if the couple (the petitioner and the target) are still actively arguing, that communication work may not be a good idea. If they are not currently on speaking terms, however, it helps with reconciliation work a great deal. 

This can be true for business situations as well – that communication is a SUPPORTIVE working. Let's say you're applying for a new job. You haven't heard back from several prospective employers, and you're getting impatient. You hadn't done any spellwork to get a new job, but since you have a very good resume, you figure you may as well just get those places where you'd applied to just hurry up and let you know if they want to call you in for an interview or if they are not interested. You do a communication working, and suddenly get several rejections…. Wait, what? Depending on the type of work you do, sometimes the process to get a new job is longer than it would be for someone who, for example, is working as a shop clerk or a waiter. They screen several employees. So, if you'd been patient to hear back, you might have been in that stack of "good candidates," that waited a few more weeks to hear whether or not they'd made it to the final interview (and might be hired.) If, however, you just wanted the businesses to hurry up and tell you the verdict, there's a chance they did so because they tell people they aren't hiring them when they cut them out of the "good job candidate" pile. In this instance, I would have recommended you work GET A JOB and/or CROWN OF SUCCESS spells, not "hurry up and tell me if I'm hired or not" communication workings. While I can certainly understand impatience when you need a paycheck, the reality is if you were hired, – if your magical aim was to GET HIRED – you probably wouldn't be waiting much longer than you would to hear you were not hired, and your magic would be supporting you getting a job, not supporting someone telling you whether you did or didn't. Hopefully that makes sense.

I don't want to give the idea that I don't feel communication workings are not valuable. They are quite valuable. However, I often come across people who place a deeper importance on them than I would recommend in their situation. So, when using communication, remember this is to open up and facilitate more and and better communication between the petitioner and the target/s, however, without it being supportive to another spell, the content of the communication may not be what was desired by the petitioner. I can assure you that a huge problem in many relationships is a lack of good communication, so it can be hugely helpful in regards to relationship problems, but I do suggest some caution in so doing if you are not also working to soften anger between the couple, or to draw up feelings of love.

I hope this has been educational. :)
