Send that Shit Back Where it Came From!
Someone done you wrong, baby?
Need to defend yourself by reflecting the wrongdoer’s evil intent back on him or herself? Want to ensure the target will not only fail to harm you any further but will actually suffer the consequences of what they have tried to send your way?
Gather up the following:
Acquire a hinged wooden box from a craft store. Affix mirrors inside with hot glue. During a Dark Moon, create a poppet of the person doing damage. Use any personal effect that you may have: photo, piece of clothing, hair, nail clippings, saliva, etc. Use a piece of fabric to create a small poppet of the person. Miss Sha’ has a great video on YouTube of how to make a quick no-sew poppet for use. Check it out!
If you have nothing that belongs to the target, use an Ace of Spades card in it’s place. Write their name and as much information about them as you can on the back of the card. Dress the card with reversing oil. Also dress a grey candle with reversing oil and light it. *Grey candles are the perfect color for letting go, releasing negative energies, as well as sending shit back where it originated!
If you work with Deities, choose a God or Goddess associated with vengeance and seeking revenge – such as Cailleach or Nemesis. You can call on the Norse God, Vidar, or even Erzuli Dantor who is best known for her protection from violence, but also her strength and vengeance. Explain to them, in detail, what you are seeking and why.
Hold the poppet tightly in your hands and visualize your target being overcome with suffering, difficulty and chaos if they send any additional energy your way. Place the poppet, any remaining items you have, and the photo or Ace card, in the mirror box. Forcefully close the box. Seal the box with wax from the grey candle.
You will want to bury this box in a cemetery. Depending upon what type of outcome you want, will determine where you choose to bury it within the cemetery. Bury it on the south end of the cemetery if you are seeking vindication. Opt for the east side if an apology is more what you seek. The west will cause remorse and ultimately, the north side works well if you don’t want to hear from this person ever again.
Once buried, walk away and do not look back.

Sending Healing Energies Across the Miles
For this spell, you will need:
One of the questions I am most often asked is about sending someone healing energies from a distance. While there is no perfect way of doing this, with proper and focused intent, it can be accomplished. One quick and easy way that I have used on many occasions is to write out a quick little petition or prayer on a piece of paper. Keep it short, sweet and to the point. Be as specific as possible. Sometimes I will write psalms that I have chosen down, as well. Psalm 121 (see below) is a good one to use when sending healing energies to someone in need.
You will then place the paper in a bowl and anoint it with a healing or protection oil. For something like this, I use Holy Blessing Conjure Oil. This oil is our version of Fiery Wall of Protection Oil, with some added oomph. At this time, also dress the white candle with the oil. Visualize the energies surrounding the person you will sending them to. If you want, you may carve the name of the target on the side of the candle. Light the candle and allow it to burn. Spend some time focused on the energies you are sending. Speak the psalms or prayer that you have chosen.
When the candle is spent, and you feel good about the working, remove the petition from the dish and allow it to dry. Once dry, there are several things you can do. You can bury it, you can burn it, or I like to add it to a small mojo or gris gris and send it to the person. Have them carry it with them for a time.
Dispose of the candle wax in a trash receptacle.
Psalm 121 – A song of ascents.
I lift up my eyes to the mountains –
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
The Maker of heaven and earth.
He does not let your foot stumble –
Your guard does not slumber.

Agate, Banish, Candle Spell, Cut & Clear, Depression, Empower, Harmony, Holiday Season, Joy, Pagan, Spell, Witch
This time of year – even the happiest and joyful of personalities can feel the weight of the world on their shoulders. The holiday season creates much chaos and depression.
The Goods:
White candle – taper or votive (not glass encased)
Blue Agate stone
Black Marker – wide tip
Lemon Balm – loose herb
Cut & Clear Oil
Small cloth pouch
Begin by completely coloring the white candle black with your marker. This symbolizes the depression that is presently encasing you.
Light the candle and say the following:
‘Flame cut through depression deep,
Melt it down and make it weep.
Grant me power to re-emerge,
From it’s grip, I leap and surge!’
Watch the candle burn until the white wax appears at the flame. Extinguish the candle if you need, or if you are able, add a drop of Cut and Clear oil near the flame. (Relight the candle if you extinguished it) Hold the Blue Agate stone in your hands and say:
‘Agate, stone of mellow hue, Dissolve this depression, I beg of you. Take its power and transform it’s strength, Into positive energy I can use at length.’
Lightly rub the stone against your temples, your third eye and then your heart. Place it in front of the candle and sprinkle lemon balm around it.
Let the candle burn completely.
When the candle is spent, place the stone, herbs and a piece of wax in a cloth pouch and carry it with you.
When your spirits need a lift, re-anoint the stone with Cut and Clear Oil and repeat it’s empowerment chant.
Side note: Agate, especially blue, helps one reach high spiritual places through peace, as well as patience and understanding. It’s associated with hope, cleansing, harmony, protection, positive thinking, joy, truth and promptness.

Simplistically easy…and yet quite effective!
Binding Chant
The Goods:
Begin slowly wrapping the object with the cord while saying:
“By Air and Earth –
By Water and Fire –
So you’ll be bound,
As I desire.
By the power of mind,
Your influence I bind.
By Moon and Sun
This working is done
By Sky and Sea
Keep all harm from me.
As cord goes round,
All your power is bound.
Light revealed
Now be sealed.”
Bury in the ground, face down.

Spells to make a lover return….
*sigh*
this should always be accompanied with the ‘You sure you REALLY want this lover back’ spells… LOL
Lover return work is messy… at best.
It is important to remember that once a relationship is over – it can never be again. That’s not to say that you can’t have another, different, relationship with the same person…but what you had…is gone.
I hear it all the time – ‘I just want her back. Like the way it was. The good times.’
I’m sorry honey… but it’s impossible – on a metaphysical plane, in reality. It simply cannot be. And once returned – the person is never the same. They are often very different – and sadly…
I have performed countless Lover Return and Lover Reconciliation spells for clients, over the years. Most… are indeed successful…. at some point. But I have also lost count of the number of times a client has contacted me asking if I can reverse the Return Lover spells –
Have you not seen movies like Pumpkin Head and Pet Semetery?
Be careful (and mindful) of what you wish for!
But, with all that being said, here is a little spell you can try on your own.
Voodoo Spell To Bring Back An Ex
The Goods:
• Pink candle
• Lover Return / Reconciliation Oil
• Pink or Red Construction paper/cardboard
• Scissors
• A Plate
• 2 Cups sugar (I prefer brown sugar when working conjure)
• 3 Dried Rose Buds
• A Tablespoon or so of cinnamon / cinnamon sticks
Anoint your candle –
Mix the Sugar with the Rose Buds and cinnamon.
Cut a paper voodoo doll out of the pink or red paper.
As you light the candle, be aware that fire has an affinity to the spiritual realm. Be conscious.
Write your petition (be specific – wishes, desires and goals) on the back of the doll.
Write your lovers name on the front of your voodoo doll 13 times.
Cross over each name with your own.
Place the Voodoo doll on the plate and cover it with the sugar and herbs.
Place the candle in the center of the sugar/herb mix. Say your wishes aloud, with as much energy as you can.
Allow the candle to burn for 13 minutes a day, for 13 days.
After the 13th day burning, place the doll in a safe place and keep it until the wishes and desires have begun to manifest themselves.
When all is complete – return the doll to spirits – by burning or burying it.
Just remember… Miss Sha’ warned ya, chere!

Let’s face it – most of us have been hurt in some form or fashion by someone we really cared about.
That’s life – it happens to the best of us. But occasionally, we are unfortunate enough to care about a drama queen (or king). I’m not talking typical drama either – I mean the kind that will rip your heart out because you wound up caring for them and they finally tired of playing with you and tossed you aside like a worn out teddy bear. The kind of person that dawns a perfect window dressing to hide the counterfeit that they really are.
Oh, these pretentious, two-faced bastards will act soft and innocent around you – but get them in a crowd where they are the center of attention – and honey, you would swear they could win an Oscar for their performance.
Yeah you right, Chere – you got somebody in mind, don’t ya?
So what do you do when they really need a taste of their own medicine? When you want, no need, to show their little horde of unsuspecting minions who they really are?
I can tell you what a Swamp Witch does – she turns ’em into Roadkill!
Yes, darlin’ – Roadkill! That stinking, rotting mess that we see on the side of the road!
This Swamp Witch don’t mess around! I will use what the swamp and the bayou provide to get the job done! Any roadkill will do. It’s nasty work – but the benefits you reap afterward are more than worth it!
I will baptize the roadkill as your specified target – and then wrap it in brightly colored yarns and ribbons and pretty things! You know… to make the target feel like we are buying into their sham.
Some energy work, a little altar and candle magick are done, as well as a few other things to complete the process.
Petitions are written to the spirits, offerings are made.
The bright colored bundle is placed on a silver platter and paraded around – treated like the royalty they THINK they are.
It’s a party, boys and girls!
But guess what?
That beautiful bright colored bundle of stink is about to get what it has coming to them –
I set that baby on fire! Oh yeah – we talkin’ bonfire!
As it is consumed by flames – all those brightly colored fragile ribbons and yarns begin to melt away – the pseudo identity falling to the wayside leaving behind their true ‘colors’.
Just wait… the best is yet to come.
If you are patient, and observant, you will get to see their entourage of minions leave them… very reminiscent of rats abandoning a sinking ship!
Why would they want to hang around a big piece of rotting, festering chaos? They usually don’t want to have much to do with the target after something like this. It creates havoc and chaos in the target’s life. Everything they touch stinks to high heaven! By the time the conjure wears off – they are usually left all alone. With little to no successes, no friends, a shell of their former know-it-all Queen (or King) Bee selves.
This is actually a very effective, and generally pretty long-lasting bayou conjure that I am becoming known for! So, reach out to me if you are still thinking of that person you were earlier. Yeah, Chere, I could see those wheels a-turnin’!
As I’ve said before – I don’t mess around!
I don’t do nice! And I don’t do passive aggressive!
You come to me with your problem and I’ll fix you right up.
At the very least – I will make you feel better and put a satisfied smile on your face!
I have a lot of experience working swamp conjures. I have seen the results with my own eyes. I use a great deal of energy for my workings and tricks – but I always give proper abundance of thanks to the Bayou and the spirits!
