Remove and Repel Unwanted Love

burning voodoo doll for hoodoo magic witchcraft
Being loved by everyone is not always a positive thing. Sometimes you may find you are attracting the affectionate attention of a person you wish would just leave you alone. Here are some suggested methods of dissuading such a person if you do indeed discover yourself in this position:

  • Wear Love Breaker oil on yourself as a perfume any time you go to meet them or are forced to encounter them.
  • Bathe with rue or with black cohosh root infusions to repel their attention.
  • Use the freezer jar spell to "chill" their emotions: take the person's photo or name paper and place it in a small jar of water (optionally you may add ingredients like vinegar to sour them, Love Breaker to kill their love, etc.) then set the jar in the back of your freezer where it won't be disturbed.
  • Burn Mars incense over their photograph, or carve their name on a human figural candle of the appropriate gender and dress it with Mars oil. (Mars is God of War and works contrary to Venus, Goddess of Love.)
  • Write the person's name on a paper using water-based ink. Take the paper to the sink and thoroughly scrub with soap and water till the name is obliterated. Take the remaining paper outside and hide it under a rock.
  • If the person is so troublesome that you want them out of your life completely, sprinkle powders of Lost and Away or Banishing when they get near you, in order to send them packing.

Now, if the person is also using love magick on you, you will probably need to perform some additional uncrossing and spell breaking magick as well to get them off your back. That is another post, but for now, use this information wisely and good luck to you.

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...

What to Do When Love Spell "Backfires"?

A lot of people who cast love spells do so with an inherent fear that it might 'backfire.' They expect this. They buy their spell and want to know what will happen if the spell backfires . Most people who hold this belief seem to consider it something akin to the 'karma' rule of magic, wherein it's perceived that magic or certain types of magic are bad or evil and that they will cause bad or evil to come back on the person who uses them. Not all magical systems believe in this, and not all practitioners of magic believe in this. Most reported cases of backfiring I hear, sound to my nonbelieving senses to be either unrelated accidents or misfortunes that just happened to occur shortly after a spellcast and are attributed to 'backfiring' (these are things like broken appliances, failing job interviews, minor accidents or injuries -- stuff that has nothing to do with love or the love spell) OR, the spell producing unintended negative consequen...

Ammonia - A Spiritual Cleansing Agent for Magick

Ammonia is a strong cleansing agent in hoodoo magick, both physically and spiritually. In Edwardian times it was advised as an old home remedy for a nerve tonic (see recipe below.)  "Household ammonia" or "ammonium hydroxide" is a solution of NH3 in water. Household ammonia ranges in concentration from 5 to 10 weight percent ammonia. The Romans called the ammonium chloride deposits they collected from near the Temple of Amun (Greek Ἄμμων Ammon) in ancient Libya 'sal ammoniacus' (salt of Amun) because of proximity to the nearby temple of Amun, the chief god of ancient Thebes. Salts of ammonia have been known from very early times; thus the term Hammoniacus sal appears in the writings of Pliny, although it is not known whether the term is identical with the more modern sal-ammoniac (ammonium chloride). In the form of sal-ammoniac (nushadir) ammonia was important to the Muslim alchemists as early as the 8th century, first mentioned by the arab chemist...

Spiritual Use of Turpentine in Hoodoo and Witchcraft

  I have posted in the past about the use of giving one's bedding a spiritual cleansing from time to time.  I recently was laundering my pillows in the same load of laundry as some turpentine-soaked rags, with the result that the pillows emerged from the wash reeking of turpentine.  From a magical perspective, this may not be a bad thing. Turpentine is used in old-time hoodoo rituals for purposes such as uncrossing, protection and sometimes as a feed for mojo bags. Its solvent powers and strong odor do indeed suggest a powerful spiritual cleansing agent, and it is still used in some modern day cleaning products on a purely practical level for these same reasons.  Old time medicines sometimes included turpentine as a thing to drink, in small doses. A book from the 1850s, The Domestic Medicine Chest , recommends giving it to children in a dose of one teaspoon for killing tapeworm. Relatedly, in old time hoodoo cures for "live things" turpentine might be made into a tea...
