There are a bunch of different types of spells that can be considered binding spells.
First, it is important to understand what a binding spell is, why it may be appropriate in certain scenarios, and how you might want to incorporate it into your magical practice.
This guide will also show you exactly how to cast a binding spell.
The traditional method is the one most people use it’s simple, quick, and effective. However, some variations can suit different needs.
A binding spell is essentially where you are binding two things together or tying someone down.
This is a huge category of spellwork. You can use a binding spell to bind two people together or to bind an object to yourself.
Yet the most popular and well-known form of binding is when you are tying someone down to end their toxic behaviour and prevent them from taking harmful actions against you.
For example, you might have someone harassing you, bullying you, or gossiping about you doing something unwanted and hurtful.
A binding spell can stop them in their tracks, so they cannot say certain things or take negative actions. Binding spells are powerful in a witch’s self-defence.
Keep in mind, though, that you are attempting to override another person’s free will using your own will and intention.
It becomes a battle of wills. If their will is stronger than yours, the spell may not work immediately, and you might need to repeat it.
This guide focuses on the traditional definition: tying someone down to prevent them from performing certain actions.
To begin, you need a piece of paper, a pen, and black thread. Start with a picture of the person you wish to bind.
If you don’t have a picture, write their name, date of birth, and any other identifying details. On the back, write every action you want to bind them from doing.
Pour emotion into this. Think about the ways they wronged you and write with intensity.
Fold the paper away from you, roll it up, and wrap it tightly with black thread.
As you wrap, chant phrases like “I bind you, [Name]” with focus and intent.
Tie a set number of knots, three or nine are common, and store the bundle in a safe, dark place.
Over time, spells can lose potency, so refresh the thread every month or so. You can also bury the bundle to tether it to earth energy for a long-lasting effect.

Other variations include the freezer spell, which “pauses” a situation by placing the person’s details in a container and freezing it, and poppet work, where a crafted figure represents the person.
You can bind specific parts of the poppet—such as tying the mouth shut to stop gossip—or tie the whole figure to something immovable to prevent harmful actions.
Binding spells are not to be taken lightly. Use them only when necessary, and always attempt resolution through communication first.
However, when someone is persistently toxic, threatening, or dangerous, they can be a vital form of self-defence in your magical practice.
