Hoodoo in the Time of Covid - Coronavirus and Disease Magical Protection, and Magic Spell for Curing Illness

First of all -- we all understand that I'm writing about magic and folk beliefs, not science or medicine, correct?

Good. Now onto the article.

Magic spells to protect against disease are some of the oldest known occult workings. It is very logical when you remember that, until fairly recently in history, people didn't know what caused diseases, and so they seemed "magical" as anything. There was a lot of assumption that disease was caused by hexes or evil eye.

With so much danger lurking, many remedies and protective charms were devised by the old time magicians to guard against disease and illness. One famous charm was the SATOR SQUARE. It is a palindrome written in the Latin language, dating back to Roman times and in use well into the 19th century and, arguably, still in use today as a talismanic charm against misfortune, hexes and disease. 

In modern form, you can wear this charm as part of a face mask (itself a protective talisman of sorts) -- You can get the Sator Square mask featured above by clicking HERE.

Another magical practice for keeping disease at bay is the act of spiritual cleansing of the home. Washing all the floors, woodwork, walls and doors with Chinese Wash or another purifying formula is very traditional. Cleaning has both practical and spiritual power to chase away disease, since soaps kill germs; but moreover, to simply see your home looking bright and clean improves your sense of wellbeing. For fabrics such as bedding and sofas, use the system for spiritually cleansing furniture.

Finally, there was the medieval version of hand sanitizer: Four Thieves Vinegar. This was used to wash the hands and also sprayed around buildings or homes that were feared contaminated. There is something to this, for the strong acid of the vinegar, enhanced with antiseptic herbs, really can kill the germs that cause disease. Washing your hands with Thieves Vinegar several times a day will definitely help to sanitize them (though it may be harsh on the skin if it is not rinsed of promptly.) There are also some who believed that drinking the vinegar would fortify them against disease, though beware of this since not all recipes for Four Thieves Vinegar are edible.

With regular cleansing and protective magic, many people throughout the ages have been able to successfully ward away disease from their lives. 

This spell is intended to aid with healing physical health problems. This spell should not be used as a replacement for medical treatment, and it should be noted that spells of this type often make ailments appear more severe in order to force you to seek medical aid or to make the condition more identifiable to a doctor. It will help speed healing if the complaint is a minor one, but will help you do what's needed with medicine for more extreme conditions. It's often a good choice when you've been suffering from a condition that is unclear -- such as an earache that could be nothing or could be an infection. The spell will bring on either the healing or the alert to seek medical help.



If your illness is suspected to be caused by a curse or supernatural means, you may wish you instead use the spell to cure unnatural illness.

As always with spiritual baths, do not use any other soaps, shaving creams or shampoos in the bath. Take a separate shower first if you need to do any of these things. The spiritual bath should be dedicated to spiritual cleansing alone.


You need:

2 blue chime candles

Healing oil OR Radiant Health oil

3 parts dried rosemary

2 parts dried lavender

2 parts dried rose petals

1 part dried peppermint

1 part cinnamon chips

muslin or cheesecloth bag



Place the herbs into the bag. This combination of herbs is reputed by Scott Cunningham to aid with healing.

Draw a bath as hot as you can stand, and drop the herb bundle into the water. Let it steep into the water.

While the bath is being prepared, dress the two blue candles with Healing oil. Set up one candle on each side of the bathtub so that one will sit at your right and one at your left.

When the bath is ready, light the candles and step into the water.

Remain in the bath for at least 30 minutes. You can apply the herb bag to any particular body part afflicted in order to concentrate the energy while you soak.

When you are done with the bath, drain the tub, and throw away the used herbs. The candles should be left to burn all the way down by themselves -- if you cannot allow them to do this in the bathroom, it is acceptable to remove them to some other location where they can burn undisturbed.
The bath becomes the alchemical crucible where the herbal essence melds with the warm waters, infusing them with the healing vibrations of nature. As the practitioner immerses themselves in the bath, the herbal bag becomes a conduit, allowing focused energy to address specific areas of discomfort. It is a moment of communion with the spiritual forces, a merging of the earthly and the ethereal in pursuit of physical and emotional rejuvenation. The placement of the candles, one on each side of the bathtub, serves not only as a symbolic representation of balance but also as conduits for energy. The dancing flames create an ambiance that transcends the mundane, opening a gateway to higher realms where intentions are amplified, and healing is magnified.

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...

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...

Magical Water Recipes - Old Style Hoodoo, Real and Genuine Magic Spells from History

Hoodoo Style Magical Waters for Magic In hoodoo tradition, some of the oldest and most traditional ingredients are natural gathered waters. While cologne and perfume is sometimes classed as a water for conjure purposes, special waters are based on water, sometimes taken from a specific location. They can have additional ingredients added, but the magic is generally held to be in the water itself. They've become a little less common since the rise of commercial hoodoo, perhaps due to manufacturer's tendency to sell any old tap water as "alleged glory water" or whatever it's labeled; and also there is difficulty in shipping liquids like water that aren't inherent in somewhat thicker mixtures like soaps or oils. (For example, a bottle of oil won't evaporate if left out too long.)  Here's a list of some traditional hoodoo magical waters and how to make them: Glory Water Glory Water is a recipe I did not include in my Conjure Cookbook , as it's not ...

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...
