The cone of power is part of the beliefs and practices of witchcraft. It is used in many covens as the process of raising power to achieve witches' ambitions.

The cone of power is a power created in a coven by a group of witches. This power is referred to as the rising power or psychic power. Witches hold hands, chant, and dance around the circle to raise the power. The bottom of the cone is the circle. Within the circle, the power rises to the highest point of the cone. This cone is said to extend into infinity. Witches create a cone of power to accomplish a goal. Their goal might be to cast a spell or perform healing. After the ceremony concludes, the rising power does not exist.

The psychic power is regarded as equivalent to the power of prayer in prayer meetings. Witches sometimes have the ability to visualize the cone of power as a cloud with changing colors, or a silvery-blue light.

The sun, eternity, unity, rebirth, and the triangle are all symbols used in the circle of the cone of power. Pyramids are associated with the triangle. They symbolize the idea of spiritual desires above all things. Three is an important number in witchcraft, because it is the number of the triangle. It also represents the triple Goddess.

Witches have claimed that the cone of power has been used throughout history. Through the cone of power, they claimed to have defeated the Spanish Armada in 1588, and to have raised power against Napoleon Bonaparte in 1700. Witches in California have also claimed to have ended the Vietnam War through the cone of power.
