The intent on the +1/-1 counter for D6 rolls was like always having a
loaded dice in play when using this spell. All Oricalcum counters do go
away once used but you can use as many counters at one time as you would
like. So you could buff up a spirit to +3/+3 at one time. Or could
have a +3 added to the D6 on your D6+4 fireball . . . ouch
