I thought I would share this because it came in handy for me in October.  We live in what I call an interesting neighborhood.  And by interesting, I mean that we have neighbors who behave badly sometimes, which often involves police calls, screaming, etc.   To make a long story short, our neighbors directly across the street had about 13 people living in their one-family home.  It was full of drifters and “friends” and whatever else, and they would crash everywhere.  They also had two little kids in there.  They assumed my husband had called  Child Protective Services on them, as that agency had appeared at the home to investigate the wellbeing of the two children living in there.  My husband was not the one who called CPS, but you can’t reason with crazy people.    Nine or ten of the 13 inhabitants came outside screaming and yelling at my husband, threatening him for calling CPS, promising violence, while he’s carrying our little toddler in his arms and bringing his 9 year old home from school.  Not fricking cool.  A good portion of the 9 threatening persons were young and generally full of assorted controlled substances so they were at some risk to attempt to carry out their threats of “revenge” against my family.  Police couldn’t act because no one had done anything yet (we asked).  My husband can take care of himself but I didn’t want the children anywhere near that.  So I went to spiritual solutions and this is the resulting, very effective work that I did.

 Timing:   Saturday after dark but before midnight is best, but as a reasonable person, do the work when the work is needed if it can’t wait. 

On my front porch I placed my cauldron, incense censer with lit charcoal and a black crayon.  (Chalk would work but I didn’t have any.)  In the cauldron was a lit black candle.  I let it sit out there and burn for a few minutes while I went inside to get some other things together.

On my stove, I boiled hot water and made a tea of fumitory, mandrake root, vervain, white oak bark and wormwood.  (This is NOT for drinking!!  Do not drink this unless you are looking to get very very very very very sick and maybe die.  Seriously, mandrake and wormwood are both cumulative poisons.)  I cooled this tea, and added sea salt.

I brought the tea blend outside in a bowl.  I also took more of the same herbs (fumitory, mandrake root, vervain, white oak bark and wormwood) in their dried form out to the front porch and sprinkled them on the burning charcoal.  I found that for outdoor work like this, I like to lay it on thick.    I like to see smoke billowing out all around me if I’m outside.

I took the black crayon and drew the astrological sign of Saturn  (see picture to the right) on my front porch steps, on my back porch steps and at the curb in front of my house, between me and my crazy neighbors.  I work silently and don’t  say or chant things but my intentions are strong and repetetive in my thoughts.  In this case, my intention was that no one meaning harm to my family had better cross those symbols unless they want a spiritual beating like they have never had before.  Saturn is good for that.

After that, I went back and put more herbs on the charcoal and carried it around the perimeter of the property, leaving a nice smoke trail behind me.  I placed it back on the front porch and let it smoke.  Then I took the tea mixture and sprinkled it around the perimeter, then pouring it out in thirds across both porches and then the front curb where the symbols were drawn.

I let the herbs smoke out on the porch and let the candle burn down, locked up the house and  finished up with a good solid cleansing bath.  It’s always good to do that after protection work and I was really really smokey anyway, from my burning herbs.

No one bothered us after that.  They were still angry and would glare at us from across the street or make assorted obscene gestures at my husband for a couple more weeks.  No one stepped one foot across our curb; not one foot.  One of the younger males from across the street paced around his own side of the curb a couple times and came out to about the middle of the street but would turn back and not come onto our side.  Within about two months, they calmed down, and one of them even came over to see our new baby and borrow our phone book and chat away about their latest drama.  One of the more threatening young males has disappeared.  Not sure where he went, and don’t care.  Two or three of the others have been thrown out of the house.  The woman with the infant left her drug dealing boyfriend and moved her and the baby out.  Drug dealing boyfriend was tossed out on his ear by the home owners for other reasons.  One last guy was tossed out on his ear because it turns out (gosh, whaddya know?) has a history as a child sex offender, and this would never have become known unless CPS had investigated.  The truth will out.    They seem to have moved on to other things and are generally pleasant with us, and can come and go across the street as they please because they mean no harm at this point.  We can wave and say hi and briefly chat with some success.  The little boy over there comes over to play with our kids again like he used to.

This spell works and probably worked best because I had a lot of emotion and intensity behind it.  I love it and will use it again if I need to.
