This is the first spell, cast by Phoebe, that gave the Charmed Ones their powers.


Hear now the words of the witches
The secrets we hid in the night
The oldest of Gods are invoked here
The great work of Magic is sought
In this time and in this hour,
I call upon the ancient power
Bring your powers to we sisters three
We want the power.
Give us the power.





This spell was cast by Prue. She wanted to know how Andy would respond to her being a witch. So she cast thisTruth Spell.Unfortunately, all three sisters were in the house so it affected all of them. Everyone they came in contact with had to tell the truth. Which proved to be both helpful and a problem.



For those who want the truth revealed
Open hearts and secrets unsealed
From now until its now again
After which the memories end
For those who are now in this house
Will hear the truth from others mouths






This is the Woogyman Spell.Phoebe learned this spell from Grams, though at the time she thought it was a only a nursery rhyme. But she had to remember it to save Prue and Piper. This spell to vanquish the Nexus (Woogyman) in the basement after it had taken over the house and turned Phoebe evil.


I am light
I am one too strong to fight
Return to Dark where Shadows dwell
You cannot have this Halliwell.
Go away and leave my sight,
And take with you this endless night





This is the To Exchange Power spell. This was the episode when Piper first found out that Leo was a whitelighter. He had been hit by a darklighter's arrow and was dying. To save him, Piper cast this spell to trade powers with Leo so that she could heal him. However, it ended up switching all of their powers: she and Leo switched, and Prue and Phoebe switched.


What's mine is yours,
What's yours is mine
Let our powers cross the line
I offer up my gift to share
Switch our powers through the air
