Love is an uncontrolled emotion which offers no promise. However, in its clutches, certain individuals (often the weakest) lose all rationality and act blindly. When love inundates the reasoning faculties of the mind and incites one to obsessively possess the object of affection, it becomes dangerous. The line between one sided and mutual love, love and lust, affection and obsession should never be forgotten.

Powerful love spells should always be executed sparingly, and only when absolutely necessary. Such love spells often come with certain warnings and there are examples of them backfiring on the spell aster. One should at all times be aware of why a certain spell is sought, and what its desired end is. Trying to break up a loving relationship to gain selfish love requires a powerful love spell, as the energy to break up a relationship between two consenting individuals has to be greater than that love.

The effect that the energy directed by a powerful love spell can produce cannot be predicted. At times this may produce disastrous consequences resulting in death and tragedies. Even when the caster is successful in getting the love he or she desires, sustaining the love against the free natural will of a person requires a lot of sustained effort.

At times, when one realizes that the person admired is not actually the right one, the spells have to be reverted to ward off the unwanted affection. The law of threefold in the magic world says that everything that is given comes back threefold.

Powerful love spells should be used only when one is fully convinced of the need to resort to such an action. Powerful love spells are bound to a specific purpose and for a particular time frame to prevent any damage caused, in case the directed energy causes some in avertable and unforeseen damage.

The lunar influence in spells is remarkable.

The moon is considered a mother, maiden or crone depending on whether it is waxing or waning. The moon enhances the power of love spells, especially during the full moon period. Banishing and reversals are done during the waning phase of the moon.

Different charms and symbols, props like candles, oils, incense sticks, fruits, invocations of saints, gods and goddesses, animal parts, metals, plants, body parts (nail chips, locks), herbs, roots, voodoo dolls, and even body fluids (blood, semen, virginal discharge) are used in different combinations to produce a powerful love spell to carry out the desired charge.
