If you are only just beginning, spells are not the place to start, it is best to develop a foundation of knowledge before you begin casting.

Books are a great source of knowledge, many thousands can be found on amazon, you can find free pdf's and ebooks on the topic. There are many informative posts on this site too:

If you're serious about learning how to do magic and with starting from the rock-bottom then you don't start out by casting spells, you start out by learning how and why magic works.

You see, there is no such thing as an "easy" spell or a "beginner" spell. One either understands how magic works and has mastered the basics...in which case the magic will work..or you haven't done that sort of work..and no spell will work no matter how "easy" it seems.

Casting a successful spell involves much more than finding some spell on the internet or in a book, saying some words, lighting a candle, waving a wand of any of that sort of thing. In order for magic to work you need to understand how and why it works in the first place. Grounding and centering, visualization, focus and intent, energy manipulation, etc are all necessary first steps to even begin to have a chance at a spell actually working...and more importantly to prevent a spell from back-firing on you.

So, my advice for anyone who is truly serious is to start by reading a few books and practicing the exercises those books will give you. Once you have mastered the basics you won't need anyone to give you spells, you'll be able to create your own spells that will be far more effective than anything you find on the net. Here's the books I suggest:

"Before You Cast a Spell" by Carl McColman

"Spells and How They Work" by Janet and Stewart Farrar

"The Veil's Edge" by Willow Polson

"Modern Magick" by Donald Michael Kraig

And the following links in this thread will also help you learn the basic skills necessary for effective spellwork.

Turn on happy music.
Dance and be happy.
Turn on relaxing music.
Breathe with it and dance with it slowly.
Pull your arms up and breathe in.
Push your arms down and breathe out.
Think of christmas or some other exciting thing.
Breathe in with arms while thinking of this thing.
Breathe out and imagine filling your room with this energy.

Finished.

Pretty easy.

Try to feel your personal energy flow first before you cast a spell. I would recommend to star casting simple spell like spells of luck or protection, and maybe some candle magic. But that is just my opinion. Only you can decide what is best for you.
