Hitting the Target - Using Personal Concerns to Target Your Spell

Targeting a Spell is the Trick to Success

Magical spells are launched out into the spiritual world where they hit their intended targets like projectiles, manifesting what you desire into the physical world. In many ways, the degree of success you have with a spell is dependent on how good your targeting device is. Are you using a finely tuned scope to shoot your spell, or are you shooting blindly into a dark room hoping to hit something? The way we target magic is through the use of personal concerns.

What are Personal Concerns

Personal concerns are any object that is tied to a person's energy and physical body. The item can be something that person used, or with which they came into close contact, or it can be something from their actual physical body. The rule of thumb is that the closer the object is to the person, the more effectively the magic will hit them.

Here are some examples of personal concerns from the most powerful to the least powerful:

1. Blood, semen, vaginal fluids
2. Nail clippings, hair, foot scrapings
3. Sweat, feces, tears, mucus, urine
4. Soiled items of clothing
5. A person's foot track
6. A used item (cigarette butt, utensil, toothpick)
7. Signature
8. Writing sample
9. Photograph
10. Person's name

As you can see, many of these personal concerns are kind of gross to think of, because they are so very personal in nature. But it is the extremely personal nature of those items that ties them so closely to a person's energy and their physical body. For this reason, you want the most personal item you can get on a person that is appropriate for the spell.

The Importance of Personal Concerns in Magic

All too often, I have clients approach me for magic, and they are unable (or more frequently unwilling) to make the effort to get something very personally tied to their intended target. They are afraid of getting caught or they think they can just hit someone magically from the comfort of their living room. The simple truth is that the effort and sacrifice you make to try to get the most personally-connected item is part of the energy that goes into the magic, and you simply aren't going to get as fast or as good results only using a person's name, as you would if you had, say, their used bloody band-aid.

What is an Appropriate Type of Personal Concern for My Spell?

In many ways, the kind of personal concern you want to try to get should mirror the intended goal of your spell. If you want to shut up someone's gossiping mouth, then something that touched their mouth would be best - like a used napkin, a used fork or cigarette butt. If you want to tie up someone's nature, then getting a sample of their sexual fluids is what you should try to do. If you intend to hot foot someone out of your life, then you want to target the feet either by using their foot track, or a used sock or shoe. Use your imagination - you can get very clever with personal concerns and using them in magic.

Ideas for Collecting Personal Concerns

Invariably, the discussion around how to collect personal concerns comes up as part of any rootworking session. Here are some ideas for how you can collect the personal concerns of your target.

Sexual Fluids/Menstrual Blood: Have sex with the person until they climax, but do not bring yourself to orgasm - you don't want your nature tied up in theirs. If it is a man, you can simply collect his semen from a used condom, or you can get him to ejaculate on his stomach or yours, then wipe it up with a cloth or tissue and save the collected sample. For a woman, you can bring her climax through oral sex, and when she climaxes, just wipe her down with a cloth. As an alternative, you could always collect a used sanitary napkin or tampon if she deposits one in a trash can to capture her menstrual blood

Hair: One of the easiest things to do is find a used hairbrush and just pull a few strands out of it. If it is a man, he probably sheds some body hair in the shower or the tub - check the bar of soap or any body loofahs. You can easily collect hair on coworkers by taking a long piece of transparent tape and patting it on the back of their chair at their desk - make sure to hit the space between the back of the chair and the seat as it tends to collect there.

Used items: Stick around and see if you can grab a cigarette butt when they are done smoking. Or if you are having a meal with them, use paper napkins and collect it when you clear the table as a favor. People often spit out gum in trash cans where it is easily retrieved.

Handwriting samples: You can always ask someone to write down their number for you, or their email address. Make sure they sign their name on the paper as well so that you can remember whose information it is - thus also capturing their signature.

Photographs: Facebook and MySpace are excellent resources for getting a person's photograph. Some rootworkers don't think a digital image is as effective as an actual photograph, but if you understand the science behind both, you understand that the differences are negligible and for all intents and purposes they are both equally effective. Worst comes to worst, you can snap a picture of someone with a cell phone.

Name: Make sure to have a person's full name when doing work with a rootworker. You want their middle name as well as their first and last names.

Now that you are properly armed with the best ways to get personal concerns, you can get out their and snatch up everything you need to hit your intended targets and hit them HARD!

Reconciliation Spell + Cut out a Meddling Person

Often, a meddling party is interjecting themselves into a relationship that has fallen apart, or is starting to suffer. This "meddling party" syndrome can pose a real problem for people trying to work reconciliation spells to bring their partners back to them. Here's a great little spell I've done in the past to not only cut out that third interfering person, but also to reconcile the two lovers who have grown apart.

Reconciliation Spell + Cutting Out a Third Person

This is primarily an elaborate candle spell with a few extra props added in for good measure. Here are the supplies you'll need:

• Scissors
• Hot Foot Powder
• Reconciliation Oil
• GTFO! Oil
• Fiery Wall of Protection Oil
• Van Van Oil
• Two pink figural candles of the appropriate genders for the two lovers
• One black figural candle (or a regular candle will work) for the third meddling person
• Two 4" square pieces of paper
• a pen
• a sharp pointed tool to carve the candles

Step 1 - Prepare the Name Papers

Take one of the pieces of paper and write one lover's name across it 7 times in a row. Turn the paper clockwise 1/4 turn and then cross that person's name with the second lover's name 7 times. Now draw a shield with two inter-locked hearts on it at each of the four corners of the paper (to protect their love). Dab the paper on all four corners and in the middle with Reconciliation Oil. Fold the paper toward you in half. Turn 1/4 turn clockwise and repeat. Do that one last time for a total of three folds. Set it aside.

Take the second piece of paper and write the interfering person's name on the paper 9 times. Turn the paper 1/4 turn counter-clockwise and write GO AWAY NOW! on it 9 times crossing their name. Next draw arrows point outward from the name matrix on all four corners of that paper. Dab the paper with GTFO! Oil on all four corners and in the center. Fold the paper in half away from you. Turn the paper 1/4 turn counter-clockwise and fold again. Repeat one more time for a total of three folds. Place this paper aside.

Step 2 - Carve and Dress the Candles

Carve one lover's name on the candle of the appropriate gender. On the back of the candle carve "Reconciled love, protected love". Do the same with the other candle, carving the second lover's name in it along with "Reconciled love, protected love". Dress the candles by putting a few drops of Reconciliation Oil on your fingers and stroking the oil onto the candle toward yourself (to draw your lover to you). Place both figural candles on top of the name paper, side by side (so the wax from the two candles will melt together) facing in the same direction.

Now take the black figural candle and carve the interfering person's name on it. On the back of the candle carve "GO AWAY NOW!" Dress this candle with GTFO! Oil by stroking the oil away from you (to drive the person out of their lives). Place this candle about a foot away back-to-back from the couple candles (they should be facing away from the black candle) on top of its appropriate name paper. Sprinkle Hot Foot Powder on the feet of the black figural candle saying "Just as this burns your feet so shall it light a fire under your ass to drive you out of their lives forever! AMEN!"

Protecting The Couple

To protect the reconciling love of the couple, put some Fiery Wall of Protection Oil on your hands and draw a circle of oil around the paired couple of candles. As you do this state "Surrounded in the fierce protection of God, and protected from all evil and interference, walk on to your new lives together, protected in love and protected in life! AMEN!"

Cutting the Person Out!

Take the pair of scissors and dress the cutting edges of the blade with Van Van Oil. Hold the scissors up to heaven and say "By the mighty blade of God the Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit I CUT YOU OUT OF THEIR LIVES FOREVER! AMEN!" Set the scissors in an open position with the cutting blades facing the black candle.

Light the couple candles, then the black candles and allow them to burn. When the black candle is half burned, powerfully exclaim "Walk away from this situation as it involves you NOT! Run away from this couple as you serve them NOT! GET AWAY from this relationship, for it includes you NOT! In the highest power of God the Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit, I banish you from the Eden of their love forever and cast you out into the shadows with your kind, where you shall gnash your teeth and wail in solitude forever! AMEN!" Then sprinkle some Hot Foot Powder into the flame of the black candle. Allow it to burn itself all the way down.

Planting the Various Parts of the Spell

Take the remnants of the black candle (any wax, and the name paper). Wrap it up in tin foil, go to the nearest river that runs out of town and toss it over your left shoulder into the water. As you do so, state "Run out of town, Run out of the state, Run out of their lives forever! AMEN!" The meddler will now go away, moving into another town, or just as simple as getting out of the couple's lives by whatever means.

Take the remains of the couple candles (the wax should have melted together into one puddle) as well as the name paper. Wrap it in pink cloth and bury it under the front doorstep of the person who is trying to draw back their lover. The work is complete.

For an extra good measure, you could take a Spiritual Purification Herb Bath after the working to remove any negativity that might be around from the hot footing part of the spell.

Hoodoo Mirror Box Spell to Reverse a Curse Back At Your Enemy

Sometimes you need to pull out the big guns to deal with a powerful enemy that is throwing evil curses using the harshest of methods. This hoodoo spell pulls together the power of doll baby magic with candles, magical sachet powders, herb magic and graveyard spell work all in one. This spell - often referred to as a Mirror Box Reversing spell - reverses all evil jinxes and curses back at the originator and then ups the ante by burying them in the graveyard for the spirits of the dead to take them out of this world for their wrong doing. Dr. E. performs this ritual in very special circumstances as part of a Private Rootworking Session, when an innocent person has been attacked with curses and suffered greatly because of it.

Do a Reading Prior to the Spell

First things first: get a psychic reading to determine the source of the curses, and verify this with a secondary reading using a different method. It is of the utmost importance with work of this gravity, to verify who the enemy is and make sure that the work is justified in the eyes of God to proceed. Once you determine who the enemy is, attempt to obtain some of their personal concerns - the more personal the link object is, the better.

A Mirror Box Spell to Reflect Curses Back at Your Enemy

The first thing you need to do is construct the mirror box. This is made by purchasing a mirror that has never captured your reflection, as well as a chipboard box large enough to hold the doll baby that represents your enemy. Crack the mirror with a hammer into small pieces and as you do so, state that the bad luck from the mirror breaking is directed at your enemy - the source of the curses. Next, glue all of the pieces inside of the chipboard box without ever capturing your reflection in any of the pieces - that's the most challenging part.

Making a Doll Baby To Target Your Spell

Next, create a small fabric dolly out of black flannel. Make sure it will fit inside the mirror box. Stuff it with spanish moss to cross your enemy with misfortune, ill health and misery. Place the personal concern of your enemy inside the doll baby. Blindfold the doll baby so that your enemy cannot see you - to protect your identity from being discovered. With a bit of whisky, baptize the doll baby and name it after your enemy. I like to say something akin to "you are no longer cloth and herbs, you are now flesh and blood, and I hold your fate and well-being in my hands!"

Now, punish the doll baby in a manner that is retribution for their evil deeds. Pins can be placed in various parts of the body, or the doll baby can be tied up to prevent it from being able to act. Powders can be laced over the doll baby to afflict your target (Goofer Dust was used in this case, along with blackberry leaf to trip up the enemy, gunpowder to explosively reflect their evil deeds back at them, and crab shell powder to reverse any magic back at the target.)

Funeral Ritual For Your Enemy

Next, close the lid of the box (I decorate the box to look like a coffin), and set it up in a mock funeral ceremony. I prepare a Reversing Candle (red on the inside and black on the outside) by cutting the tip off of the candle, turning it upside-down and carving a new tip in the butt of the candle. I then carve the target's name in mirror writing on one side of the candle and "All your Evil Returns to you 10x" on the other side of the candle. I dress it with Reversing Oil, place it in a holder and set it above the Mirror Box. I placed the entire thing on a mirror for good measure and then dressed it with more crab shell powder. The serpents are a touch I add in for style and effect. Once the Reversing Candle has burned all the way out, I take the box, the candle drippings and any powder remnants to the graveyard to bury the enemy.

Selling Your Enemy to the Souls of the Dead

Finally, I take a bottle of whiskey, a silver dime, a garden trowel, a black candle, a lighter and the mirror box and candle remnants with me to the graveyard. When I arrive, I start in the middle of the cemetery, announce myself by name and ask "Which of you is willing to work for me? Who is willing to take this wretched, evil person out of this world for the sins they have committed? Who is willing to do this work in exchange for whiskey and a silver dime?" I then silence my mind and listen to the spirits and let them guide me to the live grave that is calling. Once I arrive there, I verify that the spirit is willing to do the work for me using divination.

I then dig a hole in the ground and place the mirror box coffin inside along with the bits of candle wax that were left from that spell, saying "In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost, I turn your body and soul over to the spirit of this grave to take you out of this world for your wicked ways, once and for all. AMEN!" I then stand over the grave and perform a mock burial, "We are gathered here today to mourn the passing of (so-and-so) from this world and into the next. They were taken by the righteous hand of God out of this world for the evil sins they committed. They suffered death as a result of their own curses toward an innocent person and their soul rots in hell forever!" I then put the silver dime in the hole, cover it with earth and replace the sod, and finish by pouring a bottle of whiskey over the grave in payment to the spirit that contracted with me to do the work.

Cleaning Up

The finishing touch is a black candle lit and placed on the headstone of the grave to offer that spirit light for its assistance in the working. I then walk away and don't look back. The work is done, the curses are neutralized and the enemy is buried in the ground for the spirits of the dead to take care of. Head home and take an uncrossing bath to cleanse yourself, cleanse your altar with Uncrossing Herb Bath or Chinese floor wash, and dress in white for the rest of the day.

How to Use Magical Powders

Magical Powders For Sneaky Spells

Sachet Powders (Magical Powders) are a powerful and effective way to directly affect an intended target by affecting their physical body. Powders, by their nature spread easily, fly on the wind and get all over the place - allowing you to get the magical ingredients within all over the person you intend to affect.

I make my sachet powders using a cornstarch base for a finer powdery consistency, and also in light of recent health concerns around the traditional use of talcum powder as a base. I prefer to use natural substances whenever possible.

Dressing Letters with Magical Sachet Powders

One of the best ways to hit a person with a magical spell, without them knowing it, is to lace a letter or card with magical powders then mail it to them. Once the intended person touches the letter or card, they are directly affected by the magical powder on their hands.

To dress a letter with magical powders: Write out your letter or card, then place it face down on a table. Sprinkle a bit of your selected magical powder on the letter while praying in your own words for the desired effect. You could use Love me NOW! Powder on a love poem you wrote to the object of your affections to make them fall in love with you. You could lace the back of an invoice sent to a customer with Money Draw Powder to make sure they pay their bills quickly. The possibilities are endless.

With the powder in place, run your four fingers across the surface of the letter from top to bottom in wavy lines like serpent trails, biting your intended target and affecting them with your magical power. Then shake the rest of the powder off of the letter and give it a flick with your fingers to snap the excess off. Place the letter in an envelope, seal it and send it off to your intended target. Little to they know what will hit them when they open it up, but you can be assured your magical trick will hit them the moment they touch the paper.

Sprinkling Powders in a Person's Tracks

One of the oldest and most reliable ways to hit someone - especially with enemy work - is by sprinkling powders in their tracks to afflict them through the feet. In order to do this without detection, mix the powder with equal parts of local dirt to hide its color. When they aren't looking, sprinkle your powder in a line somewhere where they'll walk through it: across the threshold to their house, around the passenger-side door of their car, under their desk at work, etc. Some folks even throw powders onto the tires of a person's car.

There is a proper way to sprinkle powders. Bend at the waist and sprinkle with one hand while taking an odd number of steps backward. Do this while calling out the intended target by name and pray for the intended effect to hit them. Then walk away, don't look back and wait for the spell to hit them.

For example, you could take the granddaddy of all magical powders - Hot Foot Powder - and mix it with equal parts of your local dirt to hide it. Then when your annoying neighbor isn't home, you can head over to his place and sprinkle a line of the Hot Foot Powder across the steps leading up to his front door. As you sprinkle you can say something like, "Ernest Jones (or whatever his name is), just as this Hot Foot Powderburns your feet, so shall it light a fire under you to make you move out of this house, out of this neighborhood, and out of my life forever! You can be happy anywhere, but you can't be happy here any longer. Get out, I command you, in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. AMEN!" Then walk home, clean yourself off, and watch the magic happen.

Magical Powders in Candles and Other Spells

Magical powders have many uses. You can use them to dress candles by dusting a little on your hand and then running your hand over the candle. This works especially well if you oil the candle first with an appropriate condition oil.

For example, you could dress a pink candle with Attraction Oil, then dust it with Attraction Powder and burn it over a photo of the man you fancy to draw his attention.

You can also use Magical Powders to dress name papers, amulets, or anything else that needs to be imbued with powerful magical effects. The possibilities are limitless! Evil BEGONE! Powder is even formulated to directly combat powders you might find sprinkled in your track - to undo their magic before it affects you and before you track through it.

Let your creativity in spell work soar with Magical Powders. They are the most misunderstood and yet one of the most powerful and effective ways to hit unsuspecting targets with your spells.

Spells to Bring Sex Into Your Life

Love is a wonderful thing, but let's be practical - we all need some physical loving too. After a long amount of time together, relationships start to get less physical and more about emotions and companionship. Sometimes, relationships don't progress to the sexual level as quickly as we'd like them to. But, that doesn't mean we need to accept that fate - we can fire up a relationship and make it hot and sexy using the following techniques.

A Candle Spell to Bring Passion Back into a Relationship

This easy candle spell will help fire up your lover's passions, and get you rolling in the sack in no time. You'll need:

• a red genital candle to match the gender of your lover
• your lover's pubic hair
• a bottle of Love's Fire Oil
• A packet of Attraction Powder
• A 4"x4" piece of paper
• a red pen
• a small saucer or plate
• a small piece of red flannel to bundle everything up after the spell is done

Perform this spell on a Friday during the waxing moon. Carve your lover's name on the genital candle. On the other side of the candle carve "Lots Of Passionate Sex". Dress the candle with some Love's Fire Oil stroking the candle as if you were making love to your partner, drawing the oil over the candle toward you to draw the passion into your relationship

. As you do so, pray in your own words for the passion to ignite in your relationship, for your sexual fire to consume one another and for you to be sexually irresistible toward one another. Get as graphic as you need to. As an alternative, you can also pray from the Song of Solomon 4:16:

Awake, O North Wind

and come thou south!

Blow into my garden

that the spices my flow out.

Let my beloved come into his garden

and it its pleasant fruits!

When you're done praying, set the candle aside.

Now prepare a name paper by getting a 4"x4" square of paper and writing your lover's name in red ink on it three times. Now, turn the paper 1/4 turn and write your name across your lover's name 3 times. Now, in one continuous line without lifting your pen, write "Passionate Sex" over and over in a circle around the matrix of your crossed names. Dab a little Love's Fire Oil on the four corners of the paper and the middle in a "5-spot" pattern. Put your lover's pubic hair in the center of the paper and fold it in half toward you. Turn the paper 1/4 turn clockwise and fold it in half toward you again. Repeat that one more time for a total of 3 folds.

Place the name paper on your working surface. Set the saucer upside down, on top of the name paper. Place the genital candle on top of the saucer. Now, sprinkle Attraction Powder in the shape of a heart around the candle. Light the candle and let it burn all the way down. Interpret the effects of the spell by observing the candle's behavior, the pattern of t

he dripping wax, etc.

Finally, gather up the remaining bits of wax and powder and place them inside the bit of red flannel you have. Tie it off and dress it with a bit of Love's Fire Oil. Hide the packet under your bed to draw your lover to it and have lots of fiery sex!

Southern John Bed Sheet Wash

One of the oldest tricks in the book is to use the power of roots to trick your actual bed sheets so that your lover will want to make passionate love to you regularly. Simply tie up a whole Southern John Root in a muslin bag and add it to the washer when you clean your bed sheets. You'll be having lots of fun in no time!

Make Yourself Hotter - with Condition Oils

Another easy trick is to wear any of the sexy blends that ConjureDoctor.com offers as a personal fragrance to enhance your sex appeal. This is great for people looking for sexual partners or for when you are starting to date and want to take it to the next level. Adjust the following spell with the appropriate oil depending on your intent. Perform this spell before going on a date or heading out to a club. Supplies you'll need:

• Attraction Herb Bath
• Attraction Oil (to attract someone) OR Hot Fucker Oil (for sex appeal) OR Love me NOW! Oil (to compel someone to love you) OR Love's Fire Oil (to rekindle romance)
• A red candle

Bring some water to a boil and add it to a coffee cup. Add in half a packet of Attraction Herb Bath to the cup and allow it to sit for 5 minutes. Strain out the herbs. This strong infusion is what you'll add to a bath.

Draw a nice warm bath before going on your date. Add the cup of your strong herb infusion to the bath. Now, take your red candle and carve "Sex Appeal" or "I'm the Sexiest Around!" on the candle. Dress your candle with your oil of choice by stroking the oil toward you. Set it in a candle holder and place it beside the tub where you'll be bathing. Light the candle, and slip into your bath.

As your sit in your bath, feel the herbs soaking their power into your skin, making you irresistible and sexy to your intended target. Pray for your intended result with power and emotional intensity. When you are done taking your bath, towel off but leave a bit of the herb blend on you so that it will dry on your skin. Pick up a bit of your used bath water in a cup, and let the rest drain away. Pinch out your candle and save it for future use.

Now, dress your body with one of the oils mentioned above (Attraction Oil, Hot Fucker Oil, Love me NOW! Oil or Love's Fire Oil) by putting a dab behind each ear, on each wrist, in the crook of each elbow, over your heart, behind each knee, and on the bottom of each foot. (Warning: Always test the oil for reactions to any of the ingredients, by dabbing a small drop on a patch of skin and waiting a day before applying it on your body.) As you dress your body, pray for your sex appeal to be radiant, for you to be the hottest person in your lover's eyes, and for you to be irresistible to them.

Put on your outfit that you're going to wear out. Get your cup of used bath water and head out of your house. Toss the cup of bath water over your left shoulder, toward the east, and don't look back. Now go on your date and watch the change in your lover's behavior.
