Final reveiw
Chapter 9
Lesson Two we talked about where our magical power comes from and conducted an exercise to tap into it and feel it flow through and out of us. We discussed what makes us magical, the difference between different types of magical blood, and some of the spells I call the "flight" charmsLesson Three we discussed what wands are composed of and how their movements affect spells. Wand movements often share some similarity with the charm they are used for. It's also important to ensure that your wand is pointed toward your target at the end of the movement if the charm is targeted.Lesson Four we spent a brief time discussing the origin of incantations, specifically Latin incantations, though other cultures obviously have their own spells. We learned that incantations require very precise pronunciation and the result of incorrect pronunciation can be unpredictable and dangerous.Lesson Five we went over concentration, which describes the act of centering your mind and centering your spell’s effects on the target in order to make the spell happen. It can be short or extended, but must be present in every spell. We also learned how to increase our concentration in order to cast better spells.We learned about how willpower, for witches and wizards, is the amount of mental "push" we give to a spell. It is the mental equivalent of physical strength.We learned that static spells are those in which concentration does not need to continue after casting. Dynamic spells are those in which concentration needs to continue after casting in order to make the spell work as desired
