Beauty and Glamour Spells

A while ago I had a prospective client asking about a spell to transform her to look like a certain celebrity; she was convinced that she herself was very ugly, and that for some reason she could only succeed in the world if she happened to look exactly like this famous actress. Now, there are certainly spells designed for beauty enhancements, but there is some debate, even amongst magic practitioners, as to if or how far they can physically transform anyone -- notably, spells for changing eye color are popular requests, yet one of the most popular comes with the caveat that "Your parents may see past it, and often spouses or very close friends, because they know you too well."

As for the would-be client, ultimately I turned down the request, as her requirements were beyond my skill in any case. To me, any plausible permanent physical transformation spell would require some kind of highly-targeted change in body chemicals that would cause things like bone-loss or growth, but only in desired places -- and I frankly don't want to risk turning someone into the next Elephant Man if the spell went wrong, assuming I even could succeed at producing so tricky an effect.

However, for the curious, I have recently designed this general glamour spell for the purpose of creating an aura of beauty that one might normally lack. As my favorite designer Erté once said, "A resourceful woman who is plain, can achieve the reputation of a beauty simply by announcing to everybody she meets, that she is one."

For our little action, we'll need:

A figural candle (male or female depending on what you are) in yellow or pink
A beautification oil such as Glamour, Bewitching, Glow of Attraction, or Look Me Over
1st Pentacle of Mercury

Take the candle, and bore a small hole into the bottom of it at the feet. Fill it with a little bit of your hair or nail clippings or some other DNA source. Seal the sample in place with a bit of melted wax from another (utility) candle.

Next, dress the candle with your selected oil by smearing it onto the candle in an upward direction, till the whole piece is well acoat. Dot the 4 corners of your seal with the same oil.

Finally, set your candle on top of the seal.

Whenever you need a boost to your degree of beauty and allurement, light the candle and let it burn for 30 minutes, then snuff (don't blow) the flame out.

The Intranquil Spirit

(EDIT: Up to date information about the Intranquil Sprit can be found in my book The Intranquil Spirit , available on Amazon. This post has some incomplete information which is clarified in the book.) The Intranquility spell is, unfortunately, the first resort of many a rejected lover. In some ways it makes sense -- the more unhappy and forlorn one is about a breakup, the better this idea of making the other partner feel just as much so starts to sound. Unfortunately, this spell is often not well suited to a case. The purpose of the standard Intranquility spell is to have the person be tormented by the spirit until they make contact with you, or whomever the spell is being cast for. This means that if a person is already in good contact with their ex OR if they're one of those people who cannot restrain themselves from initiating contact, then this already is probably not the right spell for that case. If you've had an Intranquility spell cast and you make contac...

Perfume, Cologne, and Its Use In Hoodoo

The original recipe for cologne was reputedly given to St. Elizabeth of Hungary by an angel -- the concoction was known as "Hungary Water" and was used primarily as a medicine, rather than just a mere fragrance. Charles Godfrey Leland remarked that it therefore was appropriate hoodoo practitioners would use such a substance for feeding their conjure bags and other talismans. The term cologne actually comes from a later preparation, Cologne Water (named for the German city.) The original Cologne Water is a spirit-citrus perfume launched in 1709 by Giovanni Maria Farina (1685–1766), an Italian perfume maker from Santa Maria Maggiore Valle Vigezzo, Italy. In 1708, Farina wrote to his brother Jean Baptiste: "I have found a fragrance that reminds me of an Italian spring morning, of mountain daffodils and orange blossoms after the rain". He named his fragrance Cologne Water, in honour of his new hometown. The Original Cologne Water composed by Farina was used on...

Paper-in-Shoe Spells

A popular and very traditional hoodoo spell, often used for any situation where you need to control someone with magic , is the namepaper-in-shoe spell. It's very easy: you write the target's name 3, 7, or 9 times on a paper (depending on intent and who's giving instruction) then fold it up, sometimes after dressing it with oils or powders, then put it in your shoe. This "keeps the person underfoot" or "stomps out the trouble" or "puts pressure on them" or any other number of metaphors. I have had this work several times over the years. In one instance, I was working for a very unpleasant boss, on a short-term job. It was the last day, and I only had about 3 hours of work left on the project; and I wanted him to up my pay for the day since it almost wasn't worth the trip across town for the amount he was paying me, for only 3 hours. He was very reluctant. So I wrote his name 3 times on a 5-dollar bill he'd given me, and dusted it...

Magical Colors in Hoodoo Witchcraft Tradition

Color is one of the most powerful symbolic tools in magic, allowing practitioners to communicate intent and manipulate energies in a way that feels both natural and intuitive. In hoodoo, color symbolism is often utilized in spells of candle magic , mojo bags , and powders and oils . But hoodoo is far from the only tradition where color matters. Many magical systems, such as European folk magic, ceremonial magic, and even pop-culture new age witchcraft — draw on color associations to shape their workings. In old spells, colored objects were difficult to produce; recipes for making the colored cloths, candles etc. were frequently included as part of the magical instruction. Once artificial dyes became commonplace in the 19th century, the magical practice really brightened up and colors became common additions to spellwork. Red In the oldest African-derived American hoodoo spells, the only commonly mentioned color of importance is red ; it was used to add power to any spell, ...

Other herbs like hyssop, pine needles, juniper leaves, boldo, eucalyptus leaves, mullein, basil, lavender, or marshmallow leaves would be good to use too.
