Earlier I was walking through my cemetery in which I convene with Samedi, and there, laying in the thick of grass nearest the central cross, I found this die turned to the 6 face hidden under the melting snow.

Curious, I think.

Especially since the cemetery has been inaccessible since the snow and ice. And I was there the night before the snow came.

Love Me Tender Gris-Gris

Things You’ll Need;;

(1) 6 in. to 8 in. square of blue fabric

(6) dried rose petals (red for love, yellow for friendship, pink for romance, peach for adoration, or any combination thereof)

(1) slightly smaller square of white fabric adorned with your blood

A needle and thread

A length of twine

White chalk

(Optional) Personal affect of he/she you wish to influence

Instructions;;

  • Take your bloodied cloth (in what matter you bleed yourself depends on your preference) and your needle and thread. With your needle and thread, stitch the name of you would be lover into the cloth while intently focusing on them, making sure to use enough thread so that their first and last time can be sewn without have to stop and add more thread.
  • After you have readied your bloody cloth, with the white chalk sketch the following symbol onto the blue square of fabric.
  • Place the bloodied cloth atop the symbol, then add your six rose petals one by own, still focusing on the person and speaking aloud what you seek from the ritual.
  • When they have all been added, gather the corners on of blue fabric and tie it with your twine around the “neck.”

The ritual is complete. You can carry the gris-gris around by wearing it or keeping it in your purse/pocket or you can keep it near your bed. Remember to “feed” the bag (holding it and thinking longingly for your beloved). Do this until the ritual comes to fruition, after which it can be buried near your home.

You can bless it in the name of Erzulie Fréda or Pomba Gira Cigana, if you are familiar with the procedure.
