The Llewellyn Encyclopedia

Term: Law of Return

DEFINITIONS

Law of Return:

That tradition that any action will cause you to receive similar energy back. Some claim that there is a three-fold law of return, meaning what you do returns to you three times as strong. Whether you get a partial return, equal return, a three-fold return or more, the implication is that you should be careful of what spells you cast and magick you perform
