Spells To Bind

A binding spell is the act of grasping the negative energy that is propelling a person or thing & stopping it. In a way, you are negating the unhealthy energy. The most important thing to remember when conducting a binding spell is that you must control your own violent emotions of hatred or fear. The binding spell is for protection only, not for harm. This is not easy. The Goddess to be employed is Aradia, Queen of Witches. Be sure you are honest in your intentions. Aradia's symbol is the red garter. If you desire justice call upon Maat, she who balances the scales. However, you must be sure that your own hands are free from violence & hatred, lest she weighs the scales for you as well! Her symbol is the pure white feather.
The binding itself is a very simple matter. A poppet can be sewn to represent the malicious person. Fill it with earth (grave dirt if you can find it), rosemary, sage, a piece of smokey quartz & a piece of amethyst. Also enclose a piece of the person's fingernails, a lock of hair, or another personal item. Handwriting can be inclosed if you have nothing else. Photos can be used also. If your intention at any time during the ritual is to harm that person, remember that you will only bring harm upon yourself - so be very, very careful. If you can't do the ritual right away, store the doll (with the head still open) in a white cloth. During the ritual, you will sew up the head while connecting a psychic link. Then you will proceed to sew arms & legs of the doll together. You will finish by wrapping the doll mummy-fashion with a black ribbon. Bury the doll when you have completed the ritual.
A person can also be bound using mental capabilities.
Placing a sample of a person's handwriting & copper tightly in an old bell jar is a way of stopping malicious gossip. When the danger is over, burn the handwriting.

The Bottle Spell

Used to neutralize the power of those who intend to do you physical harm, or hurt your reputation, or in any way pose a threat to your security. You Will need:

• 4 tbsps Frankincense or Myrrh
• 4 tbsps Black powdered Iron
• 4 tbsps Sea Salt
• 4 tbsps Orris-root Powder (or oak moss)
• 1 white candle
• 1 bottle with a cork or lid
• Mortar and pestle
• Parchment Paper
• Black Ink or black ballpointpen
• Black thread

Mix the sea salt, orris-root powder, and the iron in a bowl. Then cut a piece of parchment to fit inside your bottle and write on it with black ink:

I neutralize the power of (name of adversary) to do me any harm. I ask that this be correct and for the good of all. So mote it be!

Roll up the parchment, tie it with a black thread to bind it, and place it in the bottle. Fill the bottle with the dry ingredients. Then take the white candle and while turning the bottle counterclockwise, drip the wax over the cork to seal it. Last, secretly bury the bottle in a place where it will not be disturbed and no animals or people will dig it up. This spell is like a genie in a bottle. It should never be unleashed or the power of the spell is lost.

To Bind a Trouble Maker

BEST TIME: Waning Moon
Situate the cauldron between 2 black candles, with a third black candle opposite you on the far side of the altar. Burn a protection or binding incense. Have the names of your enemies writtenon a smallpeice of parchment. If the names are unknown, merely write all my enemies. Sprinkle basil and elder flowers into the cauldron. Say:

Bubble, bubble, cauldron bubble
Burn the evil, destroy the trouble.

Ignite the parchment from the central candle and drop into the cauldron. Take up the wand and stir the air above the cauldron while chanting:

Darkness ended, control is done. Light has come. My battle's won.

Take the ashes and herbs outside. Throw them up to the winds and the Moon.

Spells to Protect

Protective Chant

Visualize a triple circle of purplish light around your body while chanting:

I am protected by your might
O gracious Goddess day and night.

Another version of this spell says to chant:

Thrice around the circle's bound
Evil sink into the ground.

An Anti-Fire Charm To protect your home from the ravages of a devastating fire, place some mistletoein a blue drawstring bag, douse it thoroughly with cold, clear water, & then immediately hang it in the "heart" of the house - where you & your family spend most of your time.
Or, light a piece of wood & burn to ash. Wet the ashes, let them dry, & hang in a blue drawstring bag. It is done.

A Spell for Protection Sit or stand before any fire. Look into the flames (or flame, if using a candle). Visualize the fire bathing you with glowing, protective light. The fire creates a flaming, shimering sphere around you. If you wish, say the following or similar words:

"Craft the spell in the fire;
Craft it well; Weave it higher.
Weave it now of shining flame;
None shall come to hurt or maim.
None shall pass this fiery wall;
None shall pass No, none at all."

Repeat this simple yet effective ritual every day when in need.

To Protect an Object With the first and middle fingers, trace a pentagram over theobject to beprotected. Visualize electric-blue orpurple flamestreaming from your fingers to form the pentagram. Say this as you trace:

With this pentagram I lay Protection here both night and day.
And the one who should not touch Let his fingers burn and twitch.
I now invoke the law of three: This is my will, so mote it be!
