Harry Potter Spells 1

I have also added a much shorter list (all on one Module) on this Lens

Accio

Latin for "to summon". Summoning charm, used to make objects fly straight to the spell caster.

Aguamenti

Causes a jet of water to come from the end of the caster's wand. The speed of the jet is controllable: Harry used it to refill a small goblet in the Horcrux cave, whilst a short while later, he and Hagrid used it to douse the flames on Hagrid's Hut when it was on fire.

Alohomora

From Hawaiian "Aloha" which means "hello/farewell" and Latin "mora" which means "obstacle". This spell is used to open a locked door or window. While it will not unlock all magically sealed doors, it works well against "Colloportus."

Anapneo

Greek for "breathe". Clears the airways of the person who the spell is cast upon, allowing them to breathe properly. Horace Slughorn cast this on Marcus Belby when he accidentally swallowed a large mouthful of pheasant.

Anti-Cheating Spell

A spell that teachers at Hogwarts use on quills or exams to prevent cheating.

Anti-Disapparation Jinx

When cast on a person, it prevents them from Disapparating. Dumbledore used this jinx to bind the Death Eaters in the Death Chamber at the Ministry of Magic.

Anti-Intruder Jinx

Repels intruders. These were cast on the Hogwarts walls for the 1996-97 school year to protect the students following the return of Voldemort.

Aparecium

"Appareo" is Latin for "appear" or "to become visible". Used to reveal invisible ink.

Apparate

"Appareo" is Latin for "to become visible". This spell allows the spell caster to appear instantly in a given place. It is used in conjunction with Disapparate. The caster must Disapparate from one location in order to Apparate in another.

Avada Kedavra

A corruption of "abracadabra" which was used as a Healing Spell to drive disease from the patient's body in the Middle Ages. Its likely source is either the Arabic "abra kadabra" (may the things be destroyed), or the Aramaic "abhadda kedhabhra" (disappear with these words).

The Killing Curse. It requires a strong bit of magic behind it; the incantation alone is not enough for the spell to work. When cast effectively, Avada Kedavra kills instantaneously, producing a blinding flash of green light but leaving no mark on the victim's body. There is no way to block or counter the Killing Curse, and the only people ever to survive it are Harry Potter and Tom Riddle. Avada Kedavra is one of the three Unforgivable Curses and its use against another human being is punishable by a life sentence in Azkaban.

Avis

Latin for "bird". Conjures a flock of birds.

Screen Shot from the film, Harry potter and the Philosophers Stone, Warner Brothers. Shows Severus Snape watching Harry Potter when his broom is trying to buck him off. Notice the look on Snape's face and the look on Quirell's face.

Backfiring Jinx

Effect unknown, but the casting of such a jinx in Elephant and Castle (a district of London) was serious enough to require the Magical Law Enforcement Squad to be called out.

Babbling Curse

Causes the victim to babble nonsense. Lockhart once cured someone of this curse on his travels. Or not.

Banishing Charm

The opposite of Accio, causes an object to fly away from the caster.

Bat-Bogey Hex

Maybe the effects of this are best left to the imagination. Causes bogies to grow, become bat-like, and attack the victim. Ginny casts this spell on Draco Malfoy in Order of the Phoenix.

Blasting Charm

A charm used to good effect by Alberta Toothill in the 1430 All-England Duelling Competition, where she used it to defeat the favourite, Samson Wiblin.

Blue Fire

A spell used to create a small, blue fire, capable of burning anywhere including under water.

Bubblehead Charm

Used to create a bubble of air around the caster's head. Often used to allow the caster to breathe underwater.

Cheering Charm

Not much is known about these, but it's safe to assume that they make people happy.

Colloportus

From the Latin "colligere," meaning "bind together" and "portus," meaning door. This spell is used to magically seal doors, but is not particularly effective. It can easy be countered with Alohomora, which will open any door sealed with Colloportus.

Colour-Change Charm

Causes an object to change colour. This spell also works on organic matter, as Harry was meant to cast it on a rat during his Charms OWL in order to turn it orange. Unfortunately he got the incantation mixed up with the Growth Charm and it ended up the size of a badger before he could stop it.

Colour Flash Charm

Possibly a variant of the Colour-Change Charm, this is used to make the item it is cast on flash different colours. It was used by Hermione on a "Potter for President" banner the Gryffindors had made for Harry's first Quidditch match in his first year to make it more eye-catching.

Concealment Charm

Used to conceal something so that it cannot be seen.

Confundus Charm

"Confundo" is Latin for "to confuse". Used to confuse an object or person, to make them believe what the spell caster wants them to.

Conjunctivitis Curse

Conjunctivitis is an inflammation of the conjunctiva (mucous membrane that lines the surface of the eyelid and the exposed surface of the eyeball), and is taken from the Latin "conjunctus," meaning "joined together."

This curse is aimed at the eyes of the victim and causes the eyelids to crust together so that the victim cannot see. In addition to loss of sight, it seems to cause pain to the victim as well.

Conjuring Spells

These are a type of spells taught in NEWT-level Transfiguration classes. They are not strictly Transfiguration-based, however, in that they are used to conjure items into existence from nowhere. These spells are used repeatedly by skilled wizards in the books, for example where Dumbledore conjures mead for himself and the Dursleys when he goes to pick Harry up before Harry's 6th year, where Flitwick is conjuring Christmas decorations from his wand to decorate the school, and where Mr Ollivander creates smoke rings and a fountain of wine during the Weighing of the Wands.

Crucio

Latin for "to torture".

The Cruciatus Curse. This inflicts severe physical pain on whomever it is cast upon. To effectively use the Cruciatus Curse, the witch or wizard casting the spell must have the genuine desire to cause pain. When effectively used, the curse is excruciating and has the ability to drive victims insane. As such, it is one of the three Unforgivable Curses. The use of this spell against another human being is punishable by a life sentence in Azkaban.

Curse Alleviation Charm

When Katie Bell was injured by the cursed necklace from Malfoy, Professor Snape did everything that he could to prevent a rapid spread of the curse. The magic he performed is unknown, and so it is included here simply as a Curse Alleviation Charm.

Curse of the Bogies

Professor Quirrell told his class about this curse, although its exact effect is unknown. Something to do with bogies, no doubt.

Cushioning Charm

Creates an invisible cushioned area. It is primarily used in broomstick manufacture to make the brooms more comfortable to sit on.

The Three Forbidden Curses
(when used, you gain a lifetime sentence in Azkaban)

The Imperius Curse: Imperio- Gives the caster full control over the person under the spell.

The Cruciatus Curse: Crucio- It delivers a lot of pain to the person who is being casted under this spell. It's a form of torture. (It can drive you insane, like Neville's parents, if you are under it a lot.)

The Killing Curse: Avada Kedavra- True to it's name; unblockable

Legilimens (Legilimency Spell)

Pronunciation: Le-JIL-ih-mens
Description: Allows the caster to delve into the mind of the victim, allowing the caster to see the memories, thoughts, and emotions of the victim.
Seen/Mentioned: Used by Professor Snape on Harry during Occlumency lessons in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Also used non-verbally by Snape on Harry in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince to allow him to see where Harry had learned the Sectumsempra spell.

Mr Ollivander (first name unrevealed) runs Ollivander's, a prestigious shop which sells magical wands in Diagon Alley. Despite the popularity of his wares, he has shown that he can easily name the materials and attributes of several wands he has sold over the years. In Philosopher's Stone, Mr Ollivander assists a young Harry Potter in selecting his first wand (31 July 1991, Harry's eleventh birthday) - or more accurately, according to him, finding a wand that would select Harry. Finding Harry a "particularly" difficult customer to match, Mr Ollivander finally selects an eleven-inch-long wand made of holly containing a phoenix feather (later revealed to be that of Albus Dumbledore's companion, Fawkes), which is perfectly suited to Harry. Mr Ollivander seems very thoughtful that the two should be matched, revealing that the phoenix gave one other feather, and that the wand containing the other feather now belongs to Voldemort. Mr Ollivander tells an uneasy Harry that he believes the world can expect "great things" from him.

Ollivander's appearance in Goblet of Fire was as an official during the preliminary ceremonies of the Triwizard Tournament, where he appeared as an expert judge for the Weighing of the Wands.

In Half-Blood Prince, it is mentioned that his shop has closed and boarded up, and that Ollivander himself is missing.

The only named wand shop is Ollivander's, owned by Ollivander - a master wand maker. This is where Hagrid takes Harry to buy his first wand. However, in the "Weighing of the Wands" chapter of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Ollivander is seen to evaluate two foreign wands: Viktor Krum's wand: a Gregorovitch creation thats unusually thick; and Fleur Delacour's wand, whose core (a hair from her veela grandmother) he felt created "temperamental" wands, which is why he did not use it himself.

Other wands known to have been purchased here include:

James Potter: Mahogany, 11". Mr Ollivander comments that it was pliable and excellent for Transfiguration.
Lily Evans: Willow, 10 1/4". Mr Ollivander comments that it was swishy and nice wand for Charm work.
Rubeus Hagrid: Oak, 16". Mr Ollivander comments that it was rather bendy.
Lord Voldemort: Yew, 13 1/2", Phoenix Feather. Described by Mr. Ollivander as a very powerful wand.
Cedric Diggory: Ash, 12 1/4", Single Unicorn Hair from the tail of what Mr Ollivander considered a particularly fine male unicorn, albeit almost getting himself gored.
Draco Malfoy: Hawthorn, 10", Unicorn Hair. Mr. Ollivander describes it as reasonably springy.
Bellatrix Lestrange: Walnut, 12 3/4", Dragon Heartstring. Mr. Ollivander describes it as unyielding.
Peter Pettigrew: Chestnut, 9 1/4", Dragon Heartstring. Mr. Ollivander describes this as brittle. This may have been result of making this during his captivity in Malfoy Manor.
