To Remove an Affliction: Magical or Mundane

“After a rainstorm, go to roadside and hunt for the flattened remains of a toad. If these cannot be had, you may substitute with the bones of the same creature. Add the remains to a jar along with a hen’s egg – and to the same: a concoction of equal parts red wine, vinegar and storm water.

Powder the dried leaves of the mayapple and lacy crown of Queen Anne. Mix with shredded tobacco and add to the pot.

Seal the stew with a drop of blood and lid the jar. Swirl the contents three-times clockwise, three-times counter and three-times clockwise once more.

Bury this in the earth [in your own yard] with the lid exposed and let steep for 9 days. On the 9th night, exhume the jar and take it to the graveyard. Remove from within the egg, and bury this at the yard’s center most cross and use the jar’s remains to water the earth above it.”

@qedavathegrey might I ask where you found this at?

Oh, I wrote it a long time ago and I just transcribed it from my recipe book.
