#traditional rootwork

Today I'm talking on Glamour Magic. This is when you change a person or persons prospective of the way they may see you. Not the Witchy version like the Craft where she changes her hair or eye color.😁

For this spell your going to need a white stick candle. A piece of brown paper bag or brown parchment and a small mirror.

Before you begin have it in your mind how you want other people to see you.

Now when I say see you as I mean, like slimmer, thicker, a better dresser, being a good business person, or on a date you'll come off as funner more interesting etc. (But Don't try this to have people think you look like Beyonce) .🤣

Now grab you something to shape and carve your initials into the candle stick.

Write a symbol of what you want to be represented as like a dollar sign or a heart. Or you can write out what's significant to you then burn it to ash and smear the ashes all over the candle either way works good

Then read Genesis starting with God created the heavens and the earth and end 'God said let their be light'

Then light your candle.

Place your candle in front of your mirror and look through your candle flame into your mirror.

When your see yourself read "Isaiah 55: 11.

Start where it says. "So Shall My Word Be That Goes Forth From My Mouth". When you get to Void (I want you to say everything that you wrote on your paper meaning everything that is significant to you)

Last visualize those changes in your reflection. Then say three times "I Am You And You Are Me"

In this post I'll wanna talk about perfumes or (parfum) in French and colognes. Now if you seen my other post on colognes I talk about this I a older post link at the bottom. In this post I want to dive a little deeper on these threes by .L.T.Piver

These are some that popular in Haitian Vodou, New Orleans Voodoo, Puerto Rico Espiritismo, Sanse , Santeria and so on. These are all ADR religions. All these perfume or lotions is what there were called are good for spiritual bath and what someone like me would use them for.

But let's get into it; starting with the earliest one.

Starting with the 1885, Alphonse Heliotrope Blanc”, the first Eau de Cologne. This is another good one can be used in protecting and ward off negative energy, bad energies, Great for spiritual baths like cleanings can be added with coconut water Florida water etc for your baths.

Next we have Reve d'Or: Released in 1889. This old school scent is characterized by woody and aromatic accords. This would be used also in spiritual baths and is giving to the Vodou Spirits such as Erzulie Dantor, also Oya, Mami Wata. If your into neopaganism this is used for the Crone aspect of the Goddess.

Last we have POMPEIA" was created in 1907, it floral with an oriental note. This type of smell would have been popular in Ancient Egypt used in baths as well or worn by someone like Cleopatra. Some will offer it to La Sirène, Yemaya, Saint Clare of Assisi, sometimes Simbi even the Mothered Goddess in New age

Now the three together if you follow a ADR religion like it can represent the three Orishas like Oya, Oshun and Yemaya. In Vodou it would be Erzulie Dantor, Erzulie Freda and La Sirène.

In let's say Espiritismo I was told The Three Marias" generally refer to the spirits of Mary Magdalene, the Virgin Mary, and Mary Cleophas (also called Faith, Hope and Charity.) 👇

It can represent the three goddess. The Maiden, Mother, Crone. 👇

They can represent The Moirai or three Greek Goddesses of Fate and Destiny, or Moirae Mythopedia, also known as the Fates. They are Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos. 👇

Last if your into Voodoo or Vodou The Marasa. Etc basically the twins or sisters.👇

Is the two links I mentioned.

Glamour Bath: If you want to turn heads and feel good about yourself? A glamour bath using Sarsaparilla Root is what you you need. Unleash Your Inner self with Sarsaparilla Root.

This is a traditional hoodoo way to do a good quick glamour bath.

But Why This Root? Sarsaparilla root has long been apart of hoodoo for a long time. It's used to keep you looking and feeling young for years. It can also help boost men's vitality and stamina. Boost women's sensuality and sexual confidence.

But in this case it can be like a spiritual fountain of youth—that draws people in.

Take your root/ herb. One or two teaspoons will do for a bath. You can Boil it or not. But In this case I like to squeeze it in the water and let soak for a few hours to days to release everything in it. It may turn deep reddish-brown. Strain it and pour in your bathwater.

(don't need a lot of water when making a bath)

Visualize your ideal glamour: flawless skin, endless energy, admirers, etc.

I'm telling y'all you'll feel better. Just believe 😃🙏

This is a working my teacher taught me to help remove a person from your life. This was giving out to me in the 90s way before books.

Get yourself a bottle any one will do. Get a picture of that person you want out and put that photo in the bottle. Fill the bottle with surfer and red pepper. (Pepper flakes will work too)

Add a little of your pee and fill the rest with water.

Go out a find a flowing steam, or river. As long as it flows. Then throw the bottle in and as the bottle flows away they will flow out of your life.

This isn't a Hoodoo working perse but some of these ingredients for this bath are used in a traditional hoodoo bath and if you follow me you'll recognize some of them.

This working is a bit of New Orleans voodoo one, it's used to not only reverse the bad but to protect you while your doing it and afterwards.

COFFEE & REVERSING OIL SPIRITUAL BATH

Ingredients: 1–2 cups used ground coffee or coffee grounds. This is used for “drawing out” negativity.

1–2 teaspoons Reversing Oil

Optional: a handful of blessed salt (sea salt or Epsom) for extra cleansing. It can be blessed by a lay person or yourself saying the 23rd Psalms.

Prepare The Bath: Fill the tub with warm water. Mix the ingredients: Add coffee grounds, salt, and herbs to the bath. Add Reversing Oil: Sprinkle a few drops into the water while focusing on the intention: “All negativity, harm, and bad luck leave my energy and return to their source harmlessly.”

Recite Psalms 23

Soak and visualize: Enter the bath and soak for 15–20 minutes. Visualize dark energy being absorbed by the coffee grounds and leaving your body.

RINSE (optional): You can rinse off in plain water. To give you that fresh energy.

After The Bath: Dry off naturally or air dry if possible, and imagine yourself wrapped in protective, golden light.

Step 2: Reversal Candle (Neutralize & Send Back Negativity)

Dress The Candle: Rub a few drops of Reversing Oil to your candle. Set intention: Focus on sending back any harmful energy safely. You can use a prayer or affirmation like: “All negativity, harm, and bad luck directed toward me return to its source. I am cleansed and protected."

Light the candle in a safe, undisturbed place. Meditate or focus for 10–15 minutes, visualizing harmful energy leaving your client and returning to its origin.

Let the candle burn safely for several hours, or extinguish and relight daily until complete.

Step 3: (Protection & Empowerment)

In New Orleans voodoo we also used Saints and St Martha is a good one for protection.

Now in this last step you could follow up with a St. Martha candle ritual to seal the reversal and invite positive energy or use a protection candle with protection oil with the 23 Psalms.

But for this post let go with the Saint

Place her candle on a safe surface, ideally on a small plate or altar. Light the candle and focus on their intention: “St. Martha, powerful helper and protector, remove all harm and misfortune from my path. Turn every obstacle into blessing and guide me in strength, peace, and victory."

This working is a a traditional one no books just old school conjure from my teacher.

To get a friend or lover to return to you. This working is just to bring them back for you to fix what was broken not to make the person forgive or love you again.

Start with making two clay dolls one for him and one for her. (It doesn't have to be clay)

Your gonna run a string around each of the dolls starting from your doll then around to the other.

The dolls should now be separated at a distance.

Place a red candle between the two dolls and light it. (No the string don't need to burn😃)

Pray the 23rd Psalm. Them twist your doll to where the string is windings around bringing the other doll closer towards yous to where they'll both meet at the candle,

Let the candle run down.

(In Matthew 17:20-21, Jesus says, “Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain. 'Move from here to there,' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you”.

Luke 17:5-10

This verse says, "If you had faith the size of a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, 'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you". )

What I like about hoodoo is that we can take one ingredient and utilize it in many different ways.

We didn't have to go to a big book of herbs and read what here we're for protection, love, money'etc. You should be able and should know how to use one herb multiple ways.

So in this post I wanna talk about the two mustard seeds the black and the yellow.

Let's Start with the yellow seeds.

Yellow Mustard Seeds. Yellow seeds are good for protection from let's say night terrors, Boo hags, Protection for a child, new born or even yourself.

Working Protection: If you sprinkle just a little yellow mustard seed around your bed pray the 23rd Psalms this will protect you from bad energies, bad spirit from bothering you if you brought that in, it'll protect you from a witch riding you like that Boo Hag. Then do this for that extra protection. This you will see a difference.

You can sprinkle some by the front and back door of your home.

You can add a (Few) of yellow mustard seeds to some protection incense and burn by an open window or doors that lead out to protect yourself or your home.

(You can apply these methods once a week if you wanted to or just for that added protection.)

Working To Help With Anxiety. Often people worry they may get over confidant about the road ahead that can lead to anxiety or fear of the unknown or what might happen or what could go wrong. That can be cause by the lack of faith you have towards yourself.

Talke a white candle put a little yellow mustard seeds into the wax if a white candle and pray the lord's prayer or if you like a pray for confidence. Think about the positive outcome instead of that fear. Let the candle burn and watch your worries go away and the positive come in.

Black Mustard Seeds. There good for repealing.

If you take some black mustard seeds and throw three pinches one for the (Father Son &Holy Spirit) Out your front door for three days. This will rid you of your enemies, the devil and evil spirits they're run away. Send back any bad energies, entities that someone may have sent to you, hitched a ride or you may have picked up and brought back or just some bad luck. (Similar to Aka- Return To Sender)

If you mix some black mustard seeds and mistletoe and sprinkle it around your bedroom or house or even in each corner of each room this will protect your relationship from any outside influences. You know those noisy friends who's always in your relationship business or anyone who's trying to sneak in for a chance to get with your girl or man this will run them off.

If you have someone you desire take I part black mustard seeds and yellow mustard seeds mix with mistletoe out that in a red bag with a paper with the persons name witten on it with a verse from Song of Solomon (pick any verse you like) add that to the bag carry that with you and that person will desire you (aka sex)😁 You can also put under your mattress or pillow case, to make your lover come and stay around with desire.

Why Mistletoe? You ever heard that story during Christmas. "Kiss your love beneath a Mistletoe and you’ll both stay in love". That's because it brings love and desire to you.

You can also burn Mistletoe with a pinch of black mustard seeds to banish evil in the area. You can add it to banishing incense too.

These three Herbs are used for Controlling. Here o break it down on how it's used.

Lets start with the first one. Licorice Root.

#1 Licorice Root: is use when you wanna lightly get someone to do something in a calming way. (Like if you see someone and say to that person your cute then ask for the number I'll get it.. claim right.)

It's also use can be used for weight loss by putting a pinch behind your stove and you will LOSE WEIGHT. (with diet and exercise)

#2 Calamus Root: This herb is more forceful. More demanding. (Like saying hey girl you fine, give me be that number 😂😁

#3 MASTER OF THE WOODS: this one is more used for controlling a situation rather then a person but it can be used for controlling a person.

How to use correctly . Using there roots or herbs depends on if you know about that person or not. So if you have a person your doing a controlling on and that person don't respond to being told what to do then you'll use Licorice Root.

If you need to be forceful and more demanding then use Calamus Root.

But if you know nothing about that person and how they are or would react then use Master of the Woods.
