"One of The Best Body/Mind/Spirit Hoodoo Cleansings"

Make a bath of fresh garlic, Palo Muerte, hyssop, wahoo bark, sweet melissa (lemon balm) oil, camphor oil and coconut water. Gather nine pennies that are shiny and new.

Next, in a new or unused glass bottle pour Extra Virgin olive oil to which frankincense, cinnamon powder, rosemary essential oil and eucalyptus leaves have been added.

You will also need a white tea–light or four-inch “chime” candle, incense of sage (a traditional Native American smudge stick works well), and a cast-iron pot. 


Place spring water in the pot and put it on top of your stove. Turn up the burner and bring it to a boil.

Prepare a bath sachet by enclosing the bath botanicals in a muslin bag. Reduce the heat just a little bit and throw the sachet in. Let it brew for five minutes. Allow it to cool down to a skin friendly warmth.

While you are waiting, strip nude and run a warm bath. Take up the white candle and roll it over your body (if using a tea-light, pop it out of it`s tin first), beginning from the crown of the head and ending at the soles of your feet. Use a brushing motion and be sure to cover every bit of your head and body.

Light the candle (put a tea-light back in it`s tin or use the correct holder for a four inch chime candle) and place it by your bathtub.

Now light the sage bundle and waft the smoke around you in the same manner (from crown to soles).

Your herbal concentrate should have cooled by now, so add it to the bath water you have drawn while carrying out these other tasks.  

Add a capful of household ammonia along with the pennies, allowing the coins to settle near the drain. Get in and read Psalm 59 (to be protected from the evils of mankind).

Bathe for exactly thirteen minutes, then get out and allow yourself to air dry.

Finally, dress your body in the olive oil blend. This time work from the feet upwards. You can choose to leave your hair undressed or you can do as I do-leave it in (overnight) by wrapping the head in a white cloth turban (bonus-it`s a great hair conditioner for men and women, this encourages healthy growth while discouraging gray hairs).  

Using plastic gloves (or a paper towel), gather the pennies from the drain and put them in a plastic baggie for disposal later on.

Shower the next morning at dawn, using Chandrika Ayurvedic soap (a very inexpensive but pure soap that is heavy on vetivert, ginger root and other goodies both cleansing and protective…it is very popular with spiritual workers and I use it every day).  


Take the pennies to a nearby crossroads and empty them from the bag (do not touch them with bare hands). Walk away without turning back. 


If under attack, repeat this bathing procedure for thirteen days straight (absolutely no “skipping”).  Use new pennies every day and continue collecting them in the plastic bag. Dispose of them at a crossroads on the fourteenth day (just dump them from the bag or bring along a paper towel to use in handling them).

Shower regularly with the Chandrika soap and dress yourself afterwards with the above oil (or another oil of power and protection). Remember that after you remove the negatives through cleansing you must fill the void left behind (with good).

Hint (to protect loved ones without being obvious)-drain some of the bath into a glass bottle before adding the rest to your bathtub. Keep this in the fridge and when you are able, saturate a white hand cloth with it and simply wipe down a child or partner`s forehead (“Try this, honey, it feels so good!”... they will usually comply).

You can also rub a child or partner with the oil. Nobody will say “no” to a nice massage, and children absolutely love it (kids are enormously wound up and tense these days, and regular massage contributes to better circulation and therefore better health).

“Miss Sharon`s Speculation Wanga (“Super-Charged Gambling Mojo”)

Drill a small whole into a nutmeg and fill it with a small piece of aluminum foil that has been rolled into a tiny ball. Mercury was used in the original talisman but today we are aware of it`s associated dangers. I have found aluminum foil to be a fortunate substitute (or my gambling friends and clients have-I make these for others and they have had excellent results…me, I am not much of a gambler). 


Seal the hole with wax from a green candle and place in a green flannel mojo bag.

Add a John the Conqueror root, a Lucky Hand root, a Mercury dime, a lodestone painted gold or green, Five Finger Grass, the Ten of Diamonds from a pack of miniature playing cards (or the regular version folded down three times), an alligator foot, gold magnetic sand, silver magnetic sand and fingernail clippings (only fingernails for this, no hair and so forth…or toenails!) .

Carry when playing games of chance and feed regularly with “Jockey Club” perfume or sachet powder (the original is still made by Caswell-Massey Apothecary but a recipe for the powder is included below) and whiskey.

“Jockey Club Sachet”:

2 oz. Lavender flowers

6 oz. Rose petals

8 oz. Orris root powder

2 teaspoons Vanilla bean powder

3 teaspoons Ambrette powder( substitute

for 16 grains of Musk )

Reduce the above ingredients to powder

in a coffee mill.

Then add the essence and oils listed

below, and grind/mix thoroughly in a

mortar.

1 oz. Jasmine essence

80 drops Sandalwood oil

40 drops Rose oil

20 drops Neroli oil ( Bergamot will do

as a substitute for the Neroli )

“Freezer Spell to Shut Down a Stalker or Send Any Nuisance Away”

Obtain a human figure candle according to the sex of your enemy or rival and snip off the wick.

Choose either black or white to represent your intentions. Use black if the enemy is truly hated. Employ white if the matter at hand involves someone with an annoying but not malevolent obsession (in this case you wish them no particular ill but simply want them to go away).

Identify your target by creating a name paper using a small piece of brown paper bag. I save bags from the market for this purpose. Writing petitions and name slips on brown paper grocery sacks is traditional in hoodoo folk magic-for them “necessity was the mother of invention”. For us it still can be, but we also call it being "green“ or eco-friendly. If the target`s name is unknown write “unknown enemy” (or enemies), or “unknown stalker” on a small piece of brown paper bag.  

Otherwise you will call them by their first and last name. You will load this identity slip (along with a teeny pinch each of black walnut leaves, rue, shame brier & holy basil) into the base of the candle using a screwdriver (heated by a lighter to soften the wax). 


Hollow out a hole and reserve the wax you have removed. You will want to re-seal the hole once the candle is loaded.  Fold the name paper down until it is small enough to fit into the space you have created and insert.  Heat or re-soften the reserved wax and seal the hole. 


Note that when you seek to separate from a “thing” (not a human being) a plain black or white candle may be used in this spell, loaded with a petition paper that states, for example, “my unacceptable situation” or “the evil presence that now haunts me”.

Optional: you can also use the Seal of Mephistophilas (to control ones enemies) to load the figural candle. I have used seals written on parchment (in red or black ink) that double as  name papers. Simply write their name on the unmarked side.

Create a bath of Eko brand “Alumbre en Polvo” dissolved in a mixture of water and vinegar (or lemon juice.) Place it in a deep pan that will allow you to fully submerge the candle. Alternatively you can use a plastic Tupperware container that is rectangular in shape & has a snap-on lid.  

Once the candle`s base has hardened again it is ready to be placed in the bath pan facing up.  Remember that the solution should be high enough to cover the candle (add extra water if necessary) by about an inch, but do not fill to the top (three quarters full is about right). 


Leave it to soak for thirteen minutes exactly (use a kitchen timer to be certain), and while doing so recite Psalm 44 for protection from all evil.  Substitute Psalm 59 if you seek to be free of harmful temptations within yourself. Psalm 40 can be used if you believe that unclean spirits are the cause of your vexation. 


Remove the wax doll and wrap it in clear Saran Wrap (plastic wrap), then replace in it`s “freezer bath”. Cover the top of the pan with aluminum foil (again-shiny side facing in).  If using a plastic Tupperware “prison” wrap the figure in foil followed by plastic wrap and replace. Snap the cover back on

Next encase the whole shebang in the black garbage bag securing it with twine that will be tied off in thirteen knots.

Your tormenter is now ready to be buried in the very back or bottom of your freezer.

Bathe in Indigo Water (laundry bluing and water) and Dead Sea salt for a period of seven days afterwards.

Once through say a final goodbye because you will surely never hear from those you have now banished (no, not ever again.)

“Buffalo Ammonia Reversal Jar”:

To turn any situation around, write the problem you are dealing with, along with exactly how you would like the situation to change, on a piece of white lined paper. Tape this to the inside of a clear glass jar with the words facing in. 


Fill the jar with lemon ammonia, cap and shake vigorously. You can also tape a photo to the jar`s interior (also facing in).

Put this in the back of a rarely used closet (I put mine under the sink, behind the pipes). 


Take it out and give it another good shake twice a day, morning and evening.

Once you feel as if you can shake that darn thing no more it is time to dispose of it, and your situation will have altered itself for the better by this time. Any wrongdoing committed against you will be reversed and/or your fortunes will have turned for the better.

Discard the spell by throwing the bottle into a moving body of water. The current should be flowing opposite your position or away from you.

Alternatively, bury it in the earth and throw nine grains of guinea pepper in before sealing the hole. Urinate on top (or dump a bottle of urine you have brought with you from home).
