Unveiling the Shocking Love Spell: Secret Ingredients Exposed! Find Out Why This Controversial Practice is Making Waves in Folk Magic Circles!

As evidenced by the mockery of the Lucky Mojo Forum a while back, the magical method of trapping a lover by feeding (usually) menstrual blood, or sometimes urine, to the target, is one of the more uncouth practices used in folk magic -- many nonbelievers will laugh and shake off mention of dusting items with herbs or burning fixed candles as harmless, but the act of secretly feeding human bodily secretions to another person tends to cross the line into being repulsive (not to mention, frankly, illegal in many places if it's done without consent.) 

According to the Lucky Mojo website, in some traditions like African-American hoodoo and Sicilian folk-magic, using menstrual blood in a man's coffee or tea can make him notice you romantically. You don't need to do any special rituals or prayers. You just have to add a little bit of menstrual blood to the drink. The idea is to make the person you like become more aware of you. Urine too is used in love spells that go into coffee or tea, used instead of menstrual blood when the person doing the magic can't use menstrual blood. This might be because they are too young, too old, pregnant, or have other reasons. Sometimes, men can also use urine in a drink to create a strong connection with a woman, although this is not as common.

My first contact with this tradition actually came via Snopes.com where their article on menstrual superstition reports, "(Menstrual blood has been) viewed as a potent ingredient to add to a love potion or to slip directly into something that would be ingested by the lusted-for object of affection. A drop or two secreted in a man's food or drink was said to bind him forever to the woman whose blood it was. (Didn't work, though: history is replete with disappointed maidens who attempted to win themselves adoring husbands through this trick.)"

The trick is probably popular because it's cheap (practically free!), doesn't require any odd ingredients, and the only task of any difficulty is in the actual collecting/deploying the fluids. Plus, as the spell is usually given, it's promised to bind the man to you forever! -- which is usually what people are striving to do. Though yronwode claims on the page linked earlier to have always had good results with this trick, I'm inclined more to agree with Snopes about its effectiveness -- I've met a few people that have used this or been the victims of its use, yet none of these people seem to still be in the relationship they were supposedly obliged to stay in. Most of them didn't use any fancy uncrossing spells or escape spells either; the thing just plain didn't work.

Could it have been the squeamishness of the deployer creating a negative effect on the magical powers? Except in one case of a friend who'd had this done, she was already broken up with the guy before realizing he'd put something on her earlier, indicating it still won't stop a person from leaving. A friend of mine from a Cuban/Santeria background has said that as she was taught, the menstrual blood does produce strong love but only for very a short time, and so these accounts match with what she was told.
Just my opinion of course, based on what I've understood -- but I'd say this is one of the tricks not worth getting involved with. It seems to just annoy the targets and not work very well, and if done without consent can land you in jail.

Blockbuster Spell

Recently tried this one to some good effect. As I did it, I petitioned Ganesha, but any of those crossroads deities (Mercury, Ellegua, Odin) will be able to help you here. You need: Blockbuster Oil Blockbuster Incense (loose or resin works best for this) Van Van Powder or Oil Gunpowder 2 White, Black or Orange Candles Fabric and Thread to wrap spell remains Offering for Ganesha (candy is a favorite) Do this spell on a Sunday or a Wednesday, or in a Sun or Mercury hour. Begin with your candles. White can be used for anything and is always a good choice. Black candles can be used to blot out problems and to bring destruction of all types, and so are a popular choice in Blockbuster work. Orange is used for opening the way and is another possibility if you are feeling blocked. Whatever colors you choose, take one candle and carve your name (or the name of the person the spell is for) onto it. Then carve on the other candle what it is you want to unblock -- this cou...

Paper-in-Shoe Spells

A popular and very traditional hoodoo spell, often used for any situation where you need to control someone with magic , is the namepaper-in-shoe spell. It's very easy: you write the target's name 3, 7, or 9 times on a paper (depending on intent and who's giving instruction) then fold it up, sometimes after dressing it with oils or powders, then put it in your shoe. This "keeps the person underfoot" or "stomps out the trouble" or "puts pressure on them" or any other number of metaphors. I have had this work several times over the years. In one instance, I was working for a very unpleasant boss, on a short-term job. It was the last day, and I only had about 3 hours of work left on the project; and I wanted him to up my pay for the day since it almost wasn't worth the trip across town for the amount he was paying me, for only 3 hours. He was very reluctant. So I wrote his name 3 times on a 5-dollar bill he'd given me, and dusted it...

The Intranquil Spirit

(EDIT: Up to date information about the Intranquil Sprit can be found in my book  The Intranquil Spirit , available on Amazon.  This post has some incomplete information which is clarified in the book.) The Intranquility spell is, unfortunately, the first resort of many a rejected lover. In some ways it makes sense -- the more unhappy and forlorn one is about a breakup, the better this idea of making the other partner feel just as much so starts to sound. Unfortunately, this spell is often not well suited to a case. The purpose of the standard Intranquility spell is to have the person be tormented by the spirit until they make contact with you, or whomever the spell is being cast for. This means that if a person is already in good contact with their ex OR if they're one of those people who cannot restrain themselves from initiating contact, then this already is probably not the right spell for that case. If you've had an Intranquility spell cast and you make contac...

Job Spells in the Internet Age - Hoodoo Voodoo Success and Steady Work Magic

We exist in an unprecedented era. There is now internet , a creation which allows text and images to be instantly transferred from person to person. People can have jobs and never ever see their employer or go to an office -- they might not even live in the same state or the same country as the person they work for! This has an impact on traditional magic spells. Most of your classic old time hoodoo "get a job" or "get business" spells assume you will be interacting directly with the boss or with customers. Some traditional operations of this type include: To have a successful job interview, wash your face with sugar before going to interview. To get a job, sprinkle some salt on the person interviewing you and on the floor of the business. To get customers, wash the floor of the shop with a mixture of your urine, sugar and bluing. For a successful job application, dress your resume with powder such as Steady Work or Van Van . For business success, sprinkle magneti...

On Fast Luck Formula - Free Hoodoo Spell for Fast Luck with Love, Money and Success

Fast Luck is a popular and old-style hoodoo formula, generally used for any purpose in which one needs luck in a hurry, especially in matters of love or money. At Extrascentsory Apothecary, Malcolm Mills writes, " I once had four different bottles of commercial versions of Fast Luck oil, none of which smelled even vaguely like the correct recipe. Two of them smelled like cherry, one smelled like baby powder, and the fourth smelled like lemon. Since Fast Luck is a combination of Juniper Berry, Patchouli and Rose, none of these oils was authentic ." Now, the cognoscenti are probably giggling here. For those not in on the joke, the juniper patchouli and rose recipe is another of the well-known fake hoodoo/voodoo recipes written by "Horrible" Herman Slater . Over at Lucky Mojo, there's an article about the recipe for Fast Luck formula in which she discredits the Slater recipe and provides a simple version from Zora Neale Hurston : Cinnamon Vanilla ...
