I use this – basically – like the oil equivalent of Goofer Dust. For curses, hexes and any unsavory workings. Its uses are as vast as the imagination and it seems to have a particular affinity for black and red candles. It can be added to charms, dolls, candles, poured into a person’s foot-tracks, etc. but the point is usually the same – to cause discomfort &/or to keep a person the hell away from you.
To create, mix:
Coffee Beans (whole or ground – either is fine)
Red Pepper Flakes
Cayenne and/or Chile Powder
(3/6/9) Whole, dried Red Peppers (like Tabascos, japonés, even red jalapeños)
Black Pepper
Iron Oxide (Rust)
(Optional: Sulfur Powder)
Add these to a jar/bottle (using a dark bottle or one painted black is preferable, but not necessary). Once added, fill half way with:
Carrier Oil & Castor Oil (4:1)
Shake vigorously.
Finally. add in:
A few sprigs of Barberry
Pins and Needles
Ash of Deuteronomy 28:25 ;; “The Lord will cause you to be defeated before your enemies. You will come at them from one direction but flee from them in seven, and you will become a thing of horror to all the kingdoms on earth.”
Fill the rest of the way with oil – cork and shake.
WARNING: There’s a whole lot of capsaicin in that bottle. Be careful and be sure to wash hands after use.
Ah, my long day of yard work has me worrrrn out. But the roses are planted! And soon, so will the Jimsonweed!
Ha, Jimson weed and roses, how romantic! My kind of bouquet… 😉
I just have yellow, so far. But hopefully I can find some of the extremely dark red ones that almost look black! I feel like those paired with Jimsonweed would make quite the statement.
… is a brand new, submission-based blog interested in both original and traditional spells, recipes, etc., occult art, poetry, prayers, mythology, how-to’s, magical theory, and damn near anything else teetering on the esoteric. We at APOCRYPHV would love to highlight the traditional, arcane ways of all traditions as well as creative, exploratory and modern psycho-spiritual realities and ideologies that might lead the magical world into the future.
Plagued by disrespect? Have a hankering for some good old-fashioned
justice tinged with a heavy dash of payback? Well, then you’ve come to the
right place. This oil is based on one of my go-to cursing jams and packs a
particular zest that brings a fire to those who dare cross you. Fittingly, I’ve
named this Crossing Oil X Oil: perfect for bringing a little disarray and
destruction to the lives of those who have disrespected you (or others),
unjustly come for you, or are just plain deserving of a magical slap in the
face.
Recipe
(2) Iron Nails
(3) Hot Peppers (whole), dried – the hotter the better
Cayenne or Habanero Powder
Dirt from the Crossroads
Glass Shards – colored amber or red are best, but not a must
Red/Black String
Optional:
Barbed Wire
Sulphur
Ashes of Deuteronomy 32:35
Vengeance is Mine, and
retribution, In due time their foot
will slip; For the day of their
calamity is near, And the impending things
are hastening upon them.
Instructions
Begin by constructing your curios: take your two nails and form them into an “X” shape.
It can be a narrow “X” if need be to accommodate the mouth of your bottle. Bind
the nails together with your string
by tying the string vertically and placing a knot, then wrap in the same direction
three times, wrap horizontally three times, then vertically three times more
and tie the string off.
Take your dried peppers and with a knife, cut a slit
down the edge and remove the seeds from within. Mix the seeds with the Crossroads
Dirt, (sulphur, ashes) and a sprinkle
of cayenne/habanero powder. Stuff the hollow peppers with the first mixture and
wrap them gently (so as not to crush the pepper) but tight enough to hold them
together.
Add the glass shards
(and barbed wire) to the bottle, then
add the nails, stuffed peppers (and additional sulphur and Crossroads dirt).
Warm oil (4:1 ;; Carrier:Castor Oil) and add in a heaping
teaspoon of your cayenne or habanero powder. Allow to infuse and funnel the oil
into the bottle over the curios. Seal the bottle and allow it to steep in a
dark place for at least a week, though a month or more is better.
This can be used like any other Crossing Oil, though I have
a particular fondness using it to dress a crossing candle (black candle,
carved, inverted and lit from the bottom).
Standard
It is your actions that makes you respectable, not your position.
All respect above “common decency” is earned, not proportioned. And that’s always been my stance. Respect for authority is not intrinsic, unless that authority is earned /through/ respect.
I will not kneel at an altar I did not help build.
