Mind Control Magic - Voodoo, Hoodoo and Witchcraft that Forces People to Become Mental Zombies

webs of magic for witchcraft mind control

We all know the scene from the 1989 film The Little Mermaid: Prince Eric, alone, is playing the flute by the seashore. He glances at Ariel's bedroom and throws the flute into the water, conveying to the audience that he's just about to go and declare his love for her... when suddenly, there appears on the beach another woman -- whom, by her possession of Ariel's voice and the golden seashell necklace, the audience likely recognizes as Ursula the sea witch in disguise. Getting Eric's attention with Ariel's voice, her mystic powers (represented as a tendril of golden fog) infiltrate his head, and he's mind controlled for the next 20 minutes or so into almost marrying Ursula, being saved only when the seashell charm is smashed thus breaking the treacherous mind control magic.

And everyone in real life turning to voodoo or hoodoo or witchcraft for help seems to expect that. Fuck me, Amadeus.

Yes, and surely with such powers as this, all the slaves from Africa just cast a Voodoo mind control spell so that the slave ship captains turned the boat right around and delivered them back home. All the medieval European witches simply did a mind control spell on the Pope who promptly declared them legal and let them all go about their business. Vladmir Putin cast one he got off some Google ad and he made Volodymyr Zelensky hand over the keys to Ukraine without complaint.

The point is, it absolutely doesn't work like that.

For all those witchcraft books and websites screeching and railing about what "bad karma" it is to "go against someone's free will" they discredit themselves by forgetting that the magic is incapable of actually doing that in the first place.

Bitching and moaning at someone about how they shouldn't use magic "against free will" is a greater offense to free will than the spells are.

When you apply for a job with a resume, you are trying to influence someone. When you ask someone on a date, you are trying to influence someone. Writing a Facebook post ranting about your political beliefs is trying to influence people. The only reason to think it's any worse when done by magic is based on a mistaken perception that magic operates like in fantasy stories where it "brainwashes" a person.

In an old post, I gave some real reports of love magic operating in unintended ways. But this should highlight the way magic actually plays out -- it doesn't "control someone's mind" but rather it just influences them in a way akin to sending a negotiator to argue on your behalf. The person never does anything they'd never do otherwise. This is why magic spells for domination don't just force Bill Gates to sign over his money to you or compel Bella Hadid to marry you sight unseen. It's why the Intranquil Spirit spell doesn't work anywhere near as well as reputed. 

Magic, as portrayed in popular culture, often leads to misconceptions about its true nature. It's essential to differentiate between the fantastical depictions we see in books and movies and the real-world practices of Voodoo, hoodoo, or witchcraft. The truth is far less dramatic and much more nuanced.

Magic doesn't make people act against their will or character; it nudges them toward decisions they might have made anyway, given the right circumstances.

Love spells are a common topic in the world of magic. Contrary to popular belief, they don't transform someone into a love-struck "zombie." Instead, they aim to foster a connection or enhance preexisting feelings. Love magic doesn't create love where none existed, but it can help bring latent emotions to the surface or create an environment where love can flourish. Similarly, spells for domination or control have their limitations. They won't turn someone into your unwilling servant or force them to do something completely irrational. What they can do, however, is assist you to assert your influence or improve their opinion of you, making it more likely for them to indulge your requests or treat you with favor.

In essence, magic serves as a tool to influence the natural course of events, rather than a means to subvert free will or dictate outcomes. It's essential for those delving into the world of magic to understand such limitations.

It's likely that the myth of "mind control magic" results from old time observations of things like mental illness, where a person seems to behave erratically or irrationally without "any other explanation" if medicine and physic is unfamiliar. Say, if Grandpa in his elderly dementia seems to behave cruelly to his family when in the past he was always loving -- surely it's that someone's put a "mind control spell" on him to make him disown his own kids so they can get his inheritance? In a time when mental health wasn't understood, it's exactly the kind of thing that would have been attributed to witchcraft. Even now, those of us who practice oft find ourselves in awkward positions when a mental health issue is plainly the culprit but where a client is blaming enemy magic -- you want to help them, which requires telling them the truth; but they don't like being told they're wrong, and if so informed they will angrily go elsewhere till they find the person who will indulge their delusion.

While the allure of mind control spells may persist in popular culture and folklore, a more realistic perspective reminds us that the true power of magic lies in its ability to harmonize with the energies of the universe, subtly guiding events in a desired direction. So, when contemplating the use of magic in your own life, remember that it's not about bending others to your will but about working in harmony with the world around you.

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 ...
