Hexing, Banishing
& Uncrossing

The witches of old were often in demand for their ability to hex and curse murderers, rapists, child molesters, and other unsavory sorts. Witches and root-workers were often the only healers to be found in the villages of old. Their knowledge of herbs, roots, minerals, and other natural remedies was legendary. Use these oils when all else fails and justice must be done. Curses don’t have to be the dark deeds of magical villains. They can be the common negative energy that ordinary psychic vampires bombard us with daily. Here I have a list of oils that should do the trick if you should have to do a little work on the “dark” side.

Agarbatti Chandan Oil

½ part Lavender

½ part Hyssop

To overcome adversity, hexes, and bad luck.

Banishing Oil

½ part Frankincense

part Rosemary

part Bay Laurel

part Angelica

part Basil

To banish anything unwanted in your life.

Banishing Oil II

part Carnation

part Basil

part Rue

Should you have unwanted visitors from time to time, and your cool reception has not discouraged them, write their names on a small square of parchment paper. Anoint each corner of the paper with this oil and bury the charm on the pathway to your doorway. Those whose names are scribed on the talisman will soon cease their unwelcome visits.

Banishing/Exorcism Oil

3 whole Cloves

2 cloves Garlic

¼ Basil mixed with carrier oil

This works wonderfully on neighbors whom you would like to move. Just rub some of the oil on their doorknobs. If neighbors are of the spiritual nature, place dabs of oil on all mirrors in the home. Let the cloves of garlic sit in the carrier oil for six weeks. Shake the mixture every few days. Strain through a coffee filter and bottle tightly.
