Skull Candle Questions and Answers

[crystalangel]

Hello LM family,

Iam planning of doing a skull candle spell. It concerns my husband, I want to make him think of hIs mother in an angry way and to have a huge fight with her. Preferably, to cause a big fight between them
I have already done See the shit for him from the book Destroying Relationships and moving candles.

One thought is to use a white skull for my husband, to make him angry towards her
So, I am going to use confusion oil, inflammatory confusion oil, inflammatory confusion incense. Petition and personal concerns are in plan too.
The other thought is to have a black skull for her and a white one for my husband
Any thoughts or suggestions?

Another question...What can I use to the mouth of the skull to make them speak bad to one another?

Also, I will baptize and talk to the skull some days prior to the spell...
First I load and anoit the candle, then I baptize it or the opposite?

[Mr Christopher]

Hi Crystalangel,

You would use dog shit in the mouth to speak shit toward one another. If you use Inflammatory Confusion on him, good chance he will become angry and confused at everyone. I would think if you put the two in a shoe box lined with foil it would reflect back, and help with the smell. You can also add pieces of broken glass, for your words cut deep. If you use Inflammatory Confusion I would use it on the mother candle.

Best of luck,
Mr. Christopher

Hello Mr. Christopher!

So you propose a black -white spell with dog shit and broken glass to their mouth.

What about the oils and herbs?
It is ok for the mother with inflammatory confusion...
It is ok for my husband's skull to use only confusion oil? Or may be oils such as commanding compelling? And herbs like licorice calamus etc?

About the shoe box...I figure out that I will use it through the days of preparation only...is that right?

Last question: what us the difference between pins and needles?

Hello crystalangel!

Not knowing the back-story to the situation and the reasons for the working, I wanted to offer some suggestions. I'm a big fan of keeping things simple - there's less that can go wrong - and try to take a 'less is more' stance as often as possible depending on the complexity of the situation.

If the intention is to simply cause a separation between them, a moving candle spell could be just as effective. Setting your lights (figurals, votives, skulls, whatever) back to back and moving them away from each other gradually over the course of seven days would do the trick. It'd also eliminate any stress you'd have to deal with from your husband being angry/upset/depressed/etc. and having to work through that as well.

Another thought...why work on your husband at all? You could just target the mother with the black skull candle, inflammatory confusion oil, and all the other things you'd want. The resulting "monster" created from this, no one would want to be around, and nature could take it's course and force the rift 'organically.' She'll be so ill-tempered and off-kilter she'd bring about her own removal from the situation.

If you don't already have a copy of it, you should definitely pick up Miss Cat's book Hoodoo Herb and Root Magic. Flip to the back and there are herb lists compiled for all the conditions you'll ever need to worry about!

And, to the best of my current knowledge, there's no traditional/magical difference between pins and needles. Pins are easier to use due to the fact that they have that little ball on the end so you can get a good grip on it and really push it in.

Blessings!

Reverend Art --

I guess you do not sew. There actually are major functional differences between pins and needles, and they lead to functional, metaphysical, and symbolic differences in their use in conjure spells. They are not interchangeable.

I wrote a long explanation of that here, but it became too broad and far-ranging to be buried in this thread on skull candles, so i took it off this post and i have actually expanded it even MORE, to also include the use of safety pins, hat pins, map pins, fish hooks, mixed needles and pins, scissors, knives, broken glass, broken mirrors, and more (!) in traditional conjure spells. I will be illustrating it with super-cool graphics and some great old-school spell examples, and then i will publish it for my Patrons next week (March 7th, 2023) in "A Hoodoo Hand," which is one of the information streams i offer weekly as part of my Patreon project, "It's All Ephemera with Catherine Yronwode."

Reverend Art,

Thanks a lot! I really appreciate your advice!

I have Catherine's book "Hoodoo Herb and Root magic" as well as other LM books.

As far as the back story of the situation...to make long short just to give an idea ...his mother lives 500km far away,,, always demanding from us to go there although she knows we hardly afford the trip, she is full of criticism of mostly everything, hostile, she came to our house once and for specific reason and not to visit us ...she wants us to feel guilty, she even wants to control what to do with our money...and lots more .
That's is why I want her out if our life .

I want my husband to he mad at her that's why I thought of double skulls.

Miss Catherine excellent post...I think I will subscribe to Patreons pretty soon!!!

crystalangel,

Your question to me comes across more as methodology, how and why do I do certain workings to get the desired result? You are asking should I do one or two skulls on this situation to cause this outcome. This is mostly a topic one would determine based on consultation with a reader and Root Worker. Why? Because advice and a reading are two different things. On the forum we give advice, we show you products related to the condition (need) or the product you are interested in, such as this thread on skull candles. We (Cat, Mods, Members) share with the community how to use the products or ways to work a specific condition need.

My advice to you is either
1. Go to an AIRR member and get a reading
AIRR:https://readersandrootworkers.org/wiki/ ... ootworkers
or
2. Go to Hoodoo Psychics which has members live 24/7
Hoodoo Psychics: https://www.hoodoopsychics.com/

When you plan work, think about the desire, what do you want to accomplish, then look at the products and see, which products best can meet this desire, which product lines support this work, then do that work. You may also want to think about different types of work, for example, you may use a skull to influence them, a break up jar to destroy a relationship, add sachet powders to a card you send her to cause trouble, etc.

In my opinion and experience, breaking up families is harder due to the natural order and relationship of people. Is it impossible of course not, but it does (my experience) take more time and effort, even more work. This is a type of work you will want to keep working regularly to keep the work going to get the goal done.

Some tips:
1. Get a reading and spell advice.
2. What is your goal? Write it out, then rewrite it until you can fit it in 1-2 sentences. This is now your petition.
3. List the work that can be done for this situation and aligned to the work based on the petition.
4. Plan the work and think about multiple perspectives, such as, a break up 7 day candle from MISC while you also do a break up jar, then a card sent to her dressed with Break up sachet powder, an influence jar on the husband to get him to favor your position.
5. After the work, reassess and see if more needs to be done, this is common with a reading and watching for signs, movement and manifestation of the work.

A long and illustrated page on needles and pins in hoodoo and conjure, which grew out of recent discussions in this thread about skull candles, is now online for my lovely Patrons:



Hoodoo in Theory and Practice: Needles, Pins, and Nails, Tier 1 March 7th, 2023

This week in "It's All Ephemera" the pile of electrons known as "A Hoodoo Hand" is shuffled and dealt -- and the winner is once more "Hoodoo in Theory and Practice in Progress," as i present "Needles, Pins, and Nails," another unwritten chapter of my free online book about African American folk magic. In this episode, the domestic side of conjure is revealed, with a long exegesis on why pins and needles are not the same and how that affects their uses in spell-work. This being an ephemera-centric page, the illustrations are many, varied, and, above all vintage. If you are not a Patron, you will just have to wait, because ...

Hello Everyone
Im going to do 2 skull candles each night for the 7 nights to make them fight and put thoughts of distrust into both there heads. Im using black walnut, lemon verbena, poppy along with inflammatory confusion powder and break up powder put into holes i drilled into the skulls in the proper lobes with petitions in each one to fight and not trust eachother. To break up with eachother. To have second thoughts about dating eachother. Then personal concerns of them both in the bottom of the skulls along with a nice chunk of onxy in each one to and each will also sit upon a picture anointed with break up and confusion oil. I will speak through influence incense each night for seven nights. My question is this. I want to do a skull candle spell at the same time for seven days on my exes partner to make him gain weight. I will put petitions in the skull about being hungry. I will drill a hole in the mouth and pack it with MSG powder and sit the skull after i go to bed infront of my laptop while a video plays in loop of cakes being made, and donuts getting glazed, and syrup being poured on icecream, bunch of short videos I put together to make a 2 hour video that will loop till I wake up while the skull sits in front of it watching it. Should I use the same skull im going to be talking to prior to this each night then put it in front of my laptop when i go to sleep or should I have a separate skull for this. So 2 skulls for my exs partner. I just feel the having the skull with breakup and confusion stuff to talk to along with my exes skull dressed the same way would be2 much to also make it have petitions for eating and hunger and msg in its mouth. Might be to confusing to work. Should I have 2 separate skulls baptized for each spell since it is 2 different spells with 2 different goals. Thank you. --AJoshua--

[JayDee]

AJoshua,

I edited your post a bit, because a large part of it was not related to the topic of Skull candles. It was a description of all the work you are doing to break the lovers up. Please try and keep the post in specific threads related to that thread.

Some thoughts:
1. Black Walnut is used as a form of Cut and Clear, not often added to a break up spell.
2. I am not sure why you are adding a chuck of Onyx to the work.
3. Adding more does not always mean best or best outcome. Do not confuse the idea of more as better. It should make sense what you are adding and why, it should be traditional, it should be known to produce that outcome.
4. I would focus on one goal and one spell at a time and not split your energy. If you want to cause fighting focus on that.
5. Never mentioned if you are burning these are using them as an effigy.
6. You certainly can make a person fat by doing what you stated. I have a different spell I use to make a person fat it involves a figural candle and lard. You can ask that question about "how to make someone fat or ugly" in the other threads.
Forum to make a person unattractive: spells-to-make-someone-seem-ugly-unattr ... t3265.html
7. I do like however, how you are thinking of other angles of the work to influence them. Conjurman talks about this in his prior Hoodoo Heritage Festival, Conjuring by 3, I think it would be a great resource for you.

Maybe I am going overboard. With all the other spells I mean. I just wanted to attack from all different directions.

I know its not traditional hoodoo but I was including the onyx cause its good for banishing and separation. No, i wasn't going to burn the skulls, just use them as effigies after bedtime for about 20 mins then put a skull in front of my computer with the chunk food video I made to induce late night munchies. MSG in the mouth and maybe some pot in the skull along with petitions. Also as an effigy not burning. I don't usually burn my skulls actually.

What do you think of the MSG in the mouth of the skull? That's my idea. At least I never heard it before. Ive heard using pot for munchies. I think I will use both and put it in front of my computer while i sleep so he will get up in the middle of the night and stuff his face. That's the worst time to pig out cause you go back to bed and it settles instead of burns off.

Do you think its all to much, what with the other spells and all?

I liked my line up. I was proud of my whole plan of action. My Mom said its a mess and just all to much.

Well since this is about skull candles, do you think I should use 2 different ones for the fighting spellwork and the weight gain spell work?

And I think I will take Conjure Mans skull candle class. I like listening to him talk on the radio programs with Mrs Cat. He has creative spells and his voice is mysterious and cool sounding.

AJoshua ,

Using it as an effigy you would pray and speak over it, I would not have many skulls going at once, I would focus on one goal at a time. Attacking from different ways is strategic and smart, often we consult divination to determine what and how to do the work, what will be the outcome. Then we do the work, many people skip the divination part of work, despite its importance, it indicates the work and possible outcome.

Using MSG which is known to make people eat more and be addicted to more is an interesting method, you can also use Attraction powder to draw them to food, add sugar to make them crave sweets. You can take the skull and dip it in lard or fat each time you cook fat and curse the person. When I do this work, I stick it in a freezer to make the fat freeze to them. I like to use cooking oil or the fat off of food, to make it stick.

When individuals ask about spells and methods, I like to ask what is the goal, whats the outcome, and does this support that? The second question I ask is, did we give it time to manifest, did we do a reading, did we we see movement or manifestation? Let the work manifest. If you want to keep the pressure going, set votive candles on them such as Break Up, and Hot Foot to break them apart. The candles will also give divination.

Your mom is suggesting that you focus the work and not be scattered.

For this work, I would use a skull to influence as its know for that work, I would use a male figural candle baptized in his name and add personal concern or photo, then each week, dip it, or dress it in lard or other fats and put in the freezer to freeze the fat on them.
