Book of Curses

by River Lux

  small piece of parchment paper. This and the mixture is put in a small bag and

  buried or hidden near the enemy’s abode. Also, if the mixture is made only with powders,

  it is sprinkled on the doorsteps. If the mixture includes oils, it is smeared on the doorknobs. All of this is in addition to the hiding of the small bag. Such action is said to result in making a person sluggish and sleepy and eventually wasting away.

  TO RETURN A HEX

  Light three black candles, and as they burn,

  speak this charm for thrice return:

  Broken this spell, broken this curse,

  By these candles, by this verse.

  Reflected back, three times three,

  Your hexes have no effect on me.

  Curse return, by candles three,

  Burn away and set me free.

  Live and learn, crash and burn,

  Three times three, this hex return.

  With harm to none, this lesson be told;

  Whatever is sent out, returns three-fold.

  Allow the candles to burn themselves out.

  Do this 5 nights in a row, during the Waxing Moon, at dusk – as the sun dies and darkness descends.

  ZULA-ZULA OIL HEX

  Using Zula-Zula Oil, anoint a Black Figure Candle or a 7-Knob Candle.

  Stick 6 silver pins/needles into the head or top of the candle.

  Concentrate on the hate you have for your enemy as you push each pin

  into the candle. Light candle at midnight of the first day the moon wans.

  Let candle burn for half hour each day until candle burns out.

  Each day candle is lit, stare into flames and think of nothing but hatred

  for thy enemy. On last day the candle burns, voice your intent for

  thy enemy 3 times. Close thee eyes and let flame burn out.

  Curse of the Spirits

  On a person’s door step break a bottle & say…

  May the Spirits enter here & destroy this home.

  ASASTRAY, SARDREEYARDOR, MARAGASTRO.

  Payback/revenge spell

  Sit in a darkened room & write the offenders name on a piece of paper. Prop it against a black candle and circle it chanting…

  What goes around comes around

  Now burn the paper & put out the candle and place it in the path of the person.

  To curse an object

  Take an object & say…

  Demon of misfortune, of time, of hate,

  make forth this object who ever last hold it will be cursed

  DARMASTRO,ASPECTI, LUCIFER, NOVAS.

  Death Spell

  If you have access to any personal article of the target, this will help.

  1. Construct an effigy or a poppet

  2. Go to the cemetery and get some dirt.

  3. You need to focus into the poppet, visualizing the victim, all of the hate you possibly can, especially during its construction. It is important to stay focused with intent. Try to do this during a waning moon. When the moon is in Scorpio or Capricorn is good time.

  4. Construct a small box. Cardboard is fine.

  5. Light a black candle, concentrate intensely upon the death and destruction of the enemy. DO NOT BE DISTURBED OR LOSE YOUR FOCUS!

  6. Put the effigy into its box.

  7. Bury it in dirt inside the box.

  8. Save some of the dirt.

  9. Take it outside, or back to the graveyard and bury it, placing the reserved dirt on top of the box, knowing the victim will meet his/her death.

  10. Do not think about the spell, or the enemy, as this will interfere with its working.

  Goofer Dust Spell

  Take graveyard dirt and mix with a little mullein, patchouli and a touch of sulfur. This powder will burn. Shape into a human figure and ignite. As it burns it is supposed to hex whoever the figure represented with the result that the individual allegedly becomes ill.

  Another common usage is to sprinkle it on the doorstep of the one to be conjured, or to place some in a bag that is hidden on the intended victim's property or hidden in the dwelling.

  The Drowned Curse

  You will need:

  -A handmade poppet

  -A big rock

  The poppet:

  -Make your poppet out of environmentally safe material. I would use drift wood, hay/grass, kelp/seaweed, etc.

  -All the while you are making it keep the intended in mind, and pour all of your negative feelings towards them into the poppet.

  -Attach something to the poppet that connects it to the intended. (Hair, nail clippings, a seashell with their name written on it…)(Again, attach while keeping the environment in mind)

  Using hay, vines, seaweed or other safe materials, attach your poppet to the rock. Make sure it’s secure! Next you need to find some dark water, but if you don’t have that available a pond/lake will do the trick.)

  Go to a wharf, or the shoreline, or out in a boat if you have to. Hold the poppet and rock close to your chest and stare into the darkness of the water. It would be at this point you should speak if you wish, or just focus on your rage.

  Picture the intended in your mind and drop the rock into the water and watch as it carries the poppet down with it. The deeper the water the better, because the pressure is meant to symbolize the weight of the world crushing the intended with all sorts of problems.

  If you can it is a good idea to remain for a short time and meditate or contemplate the curse and what you’d like to come of it.

  If the poppet immediately let’s go of the rock and floats back up to the surface, you’ll have to do it all over again.

  Bleeding Crown Curse

  Write down the name of a person who has abused their power on white paper.

  On the same paper, write how that has made you feel. Pour all your anger, betrayal, disappointment, etc. into it.

  Put the paper in a jar.

  Add animal teeth (or thorns), grave dirt, stinging nettle, and red liquid of some sort. As you put each ingredient into the jar, imagine it taking away their power and cursing them. Lid the jar.

  Put a (non-flammable) representation of their power on top of the jar’s lid. It can be a crown cut out of aluminum foil, if you like.

  Put a red candle on top. Light it while saying:

  I cried for mercy; you ignored my pleading.

  You had your crown, but now it’s bleeding.

  You must learn that power is fleeting.

  Once the candle has burned down, do with the jar as you see fit. Throw it in the trash, keep it around so you can keep charging it with your intent…whatever.

  Darkness Dreaming

  This is a beginner black magic spell that causes another person to have nightmares or otherwise trouble sleeping.

  You will need:

  - Large clear glass

  - Pure water (rainwater is best)

  - Black ink

  - Black candle

  Fill the glass with water, and sit it before the lit candle. Look through the water and watch the flame for a moment. Then, while you’re watching the candle, drip 3 drops of black ink into the water. Watch intently as it floats down through the water and begins to dissipate.

  Repeat the following chant:

  Darkness falls and darkness flows

  Wonder what a dreamer knows?

  Fear and pain and things that scare,

  Magick brings [targets name] a nightmare.

  Now drip one drop of ink on the tip of your left index finger. Repeat the words again. Touch the inked finger to the water, and repeat the spell chant one last time. Leave the water overnight. You can wash the ink off your finger right away if you want.

  If you can’t get liquid ink, use black or dark purple food coloring or other dye

  Black Moon Revenge Spell

  Check the calendar for the next new moon, and plan to do this dark spell on that night. All you need is:

  - 1 black candle

  - Sharp tool to scribe the ca
ndle

  - Piece of onyx or jet

  Carve the name of your target into the candle and set it into a candle holder. Focus on the wrong this person did to you, and watch the flame burn. When the candle has melted down enough to start melting where you wrote their name, take it out of the holder and drop several drips of melting wax over the stone.

  While the wax is still soft, mark the person’s first initial into the wax then let it cool and harden. Let the candle finish burning down, and leave the stone in a safe place (but out of sight) until your revenge has occurred. After that, bury the stone in the earth to end the spell.

  Payback Poppet

  Items:

  - Black fabric

  - Red thread or string

  - Photo or drawing of person you’re targeting

  - At least a handful of graveyard dirt

  - Dried patchouli

  Cut a rough person shape from two pieces of black fabric and sew them together with red string to make a poppet. Use more red thread to sew two X’s where the eyes would be. Stitch the pieces of the poppet firmly so the contents don’t leak out between the stitches. If you are using a drawing to represent someone, make it accurate with features that would distinguish them (proper hair color etc.) and write their full name on the image. Now rip up the picture into little pieces and stuff them all inside the poppet.

  Add a good dose of dirt dug from a graveyard (not necessarily a fresh grave, but dirt from within the boundaries of the cemetery) and some patchouli. Give it a little shake to mix the contents and finish sewing it up.

  Now bend the two arms together and sew the “hands” to each other. Take the doll and bury it upside down behind your home.

  Ace of Spades

  The ace of spades has long been associated with death and dark forces, and you can use that in this next spell. This particular bit of dark witchcraft will create illness for another person, though nothing life-threatening.

  You’ll need:

  - The ace of spades from a deck of playing cards

  - Rusted nail

  - Piece of black cloth

  - Piece of paper with black marker

  Before you cast the spell, bury the cloth in the ground for 3 days. Dig it up and you’re ready to cast the rest of the spell.

  Lay out the playing card, then a piece of paper with the other person’s name on it, then cover with the cloth. Drive a nail through the center of all 3 items (have something sturdy underneath, like a piece of wood). Say out loud the words of the spell:

  By the power of my will,

  Make this person get very ill.

  Magick power, ace of spades,

  Many days until it fades

  Bury the whole charm where you had the cloth at the start. Leave it for 3 more days, then dig it up again. Burn it, and the spell is complete.

  Dark Money

  This spell brings bad financial luck to your target, which can appear as a problem at work as well. It’s about the money with this ritual.

  You need:

  - Small jar

  - Vinegar

  - Whole black peppercorns

  - A few coins (any denomination)

  Fill a jar with vinegar and at least 3 whole peppercorns. Drop in one coin at a time, saying dark money, lost money

  with each one.

  Seal up the jar and focus your energy on your target person.

  Hold the jar in your hands and say the words one more time.

  Leave it somewhere quiet and dark (basement is best) and financial woes will soon begin.

  Torn Asunder

  This is a dark love spell that is intended to break up another relationship. It doesn’t specifically make either party fall in love with you it just gets them to split up.

  Items:

  - Do As I Say oil or Bend Over oil

  - A piece of red yarn

  - A piece of black yarn

  - A dry chicken bone

  A larger bone (like from a drumstick) will work well, just let it dry out for a couple of weeks or it may not work.

  Rub a little oil on to either end of the bone. Tie the red yarn to one end and the black yarn to the other. Don’t tie the strings to each other, just to the bone. Grip either end in each hand and repeat

  Break is broken, spell is spoken

  Say their names out loud 3 times and snap the bone in half. If the bone isn’t dry enough, it will just bend. It has to snap cleanly for the spell to work. If it doesn’t break, don’t try again. Bury the bone and wait until you have a new one for another attempt.

  If it snaps as it should, keep the two pieces far away from each other. Their relationship will start to suffer soon.

  Curse

  First, write down on a piece of paper all the things you want to happen to your enemy. Burn this. Then take a picture of your enemy and drop it into a hole in the ground. Over it pour a mixture of the ashes, urine, feces, spit and blood. Bury it. Over the grave say,

  “You are my enemy! Your putrid stench sours many lives. I call upon the dead to torment you. I corrupt your life as you have corrupted the lives of others. I call upon the Gods of death to deliver this justice! As it is done – so be it.”

  Bad Luck Lock

  This is a pretty easy bad luck spell. All you’ll need is:

  - A solid padlock (keyed, not combination)

  - A sheet of paper

  - Something sharp like a pointed screwdriver

  - Black paint

  Write a person’s name on a piece of paper and fold it over once. Pierce the paper through the center to make a hole. Don’t use a hole punch, it has to be pierced with something pointed. Put the hasp of the lock through the hole and lock the lock.

  Brush a glob of black paint over the keyhole and on either side of the lock. Hold the lock by the hasp until it dries, while repeating the following:

  Blackest lock

  Blackest luck

  By this spell,

  You now are stuck.

  Now bury the lock somewhere in your yard, bury the key as close to your target’s home as possible. If you don’t know where they live, bury it your own yard, but not near the lock.

  Curse

  Prick a piece of leather 9 times. Lay it over a picture of your enemy and chant,

  “Damn thee to hell, to the pits of suffering! Corruption of your soul until death! So be it.”

  You can either bury these items in a shallow grave in a place where nothing will grow, or you can tie the leather cord around the picture and toss it into an earthenware pot and stow it away somewhere.

  In the Dark of Night

  This is a black magic spell to specifically to bring nightmares to another person. You should cast this spell after midnight but before dawn, and be aware that it will make a bit of smoke

  You need:

  - A black candle

  - Mugwort

  - Dragon’s blood resin

  - Charcoal tablet

  - Heat-proof dish

  - Large piece of white paper or cloth

  - Black ink (a marker will do)

  On the paper or cloth, drawn 3 concentric circles and an x in the center. Set up the dish and charcoal on the x, and the candle outside the circles. Light the charcoal and get it smoldering, put a pinch or two of mugwort on it along with a chunk of resin. When they are both smoking, light the candle.

  Watch the smoke rising from the dish and visualize it floating through space to your intended target. It brings nightmares and fear into their sleep, and picture that scene for several minutes and focus on the person.

  After a few minutes, put out the charcoal and switch the dish and candle so the candle is on the x.

  Leave it until it fully burns down. Your victim will have bad dreams starting the next night and it will last for 3 days.

  Pepper Pentacle

  This is a general spell to cause bad luck or misfortune to fall on someone.

  All you need is:

  - White piece of paper

  - Blac
k pepper

  - Pen

  - Black candle

  Draw a pentacle on the paper, fairly large. Write your target’s name in the center. Carefully sprinkle a fine line of pepper around the outline of the pentacle. Once done, light the candle and let it burn for a few minutes to get the wax dripping down until the name is covered. Let the candle burn for an hour, leave the pepper pentacle in its place so it wont be disturbed until the spell takes effect.

  Sickness Descends

  This is a spell to bring illness down on someone. You can use this kind of spell as a form of revenge, or to get someone out of the way when competing for something in your life (romance, a job, an actual competition).

  Items:

  - A rotten egg

  - A photo or drawing of the person

  - Wood ash

  - A rusted pin or nail

  Odds of having a rotten egg just sitting around are pretty slim, so you should plan on doing this spell in advance. Leave a whole uncracked raw egg out in the sun for several days until is starts to smell a little ripe. It can take a week or even more.

  When you are ready to do this spell (try for a Saturday), remember that it will smell bad and you might not want other people home when you do it.

  Set out the photo on a table, on a plate or tray. Puncture the egg with the rusted pin and crack it open over the photo.
