Favorite Harry Potter Spells

Elizabeth from Book YAbber, Marci from The Plot Bunny and I will be sharing our favorite Harry Potter Spells today. I decided to showcase seven of my favorites because of the significance of seven in the books. Make sure to check out Elizabeth's and Marci's blogs. For those who are following Pottermas 2016, make sure to check out the introduction here. Also, follow us with the hashtag #Pottermas16.


Ascendio is a spell that is used to lift the caster high into the air or propel them to the surface. This is only seen in the movies during the second task of the Triwizard Tournament.

Lumos is one of my absolute favorite spells. This spell illuminates tip of your wand creating a light. To extinguish the light, say Nox.

Evanesco is the spell to make things vanish.This is a complex spell that usually fifth years will practice during Transfiguration class. Students are tested on this spell during their practical for O.W.L.s.

Aparecium is a revealing charm that makes invisible ink or hidden messages appear. Hermione used this spell on Tom Riddle's diary in the Chamber of Secrets.

Dissendium is a spell to reveal hidden passages. It is used when Harry taps the one-eyed witch's hump that near the secret tunnel that leads from Hogwarts to Honeyduke's cellar.

Incendio is a fire making spell. Be careful with this one.

Accio is a summoning charm and is quite useful. The fact that Harry was able to summon his Firebolt during the first task of the Triwizard Tournament is impressive because of the distance. This spell is probably one of the most used spells in the Wizarding World.

  3. My favorite is Accio because we all have those moments where we're comfortable on the couch or in our bed but something like the remote or a book is just out of our reach. Accio would fix all of those problems.
