Ghost Keep Away Spell (3) Caribbean Fumigation
The following herbs are burned in some Caribbean traditions to ward off malevolent ghosts and other troublesome spirits:
Epazote [Chenopodium ambrosides]
Grannybush (Croton linearis; known locally as rosemary, this is botanically distinct from the rosemary native to the Eastern hemisphere, Rosmarinus officinalis)
Guinea weed [Letheria alliacea]
Spiritweed [Eryngium foetidum]
Water marigold or waterweed [Medilia gracilis]
Burn one or a combination of these herbs in a pan, wafting the smoke as needed.
