Lucky Mojo has some wonderful bath crystal products. Cut and clear comes to mind immediately: http://www.luckymojo.com/bath-cut-and-clear.html

The Nine Herb Bath Mixture (http://www.herb-magic.com/9herb-bath-9.html) would also be good to help give you strength to put down the drug habit and give you resolve to move on with your life.

I personally like to make a mixture of agrimony (to send back a jinx), rue (to cleanse) and hyssop (to clear yourself of your own wrong-doings), make a strong "tea" of them in a little muslin bag and take a bath with that. Praying the 51st Psalm (Wash me with hyssop and I shall be whiter than snow) is very good for that. Lucky Mojo carries all of those herbs as well as the little muslin bags.

Best of luck for you on your new life. You're just coming out of your Saturn return, so use that energy to start your new life.

Best,

Alcoholism is a serious medical/genetic issue with life-long health and social consequences. If he is an alcoholic, his best shot at having a good life and a becoming a true love to someone is to join Alcoholics Anonymnous and embarking on the 12-Step Program.

[Devi Spring]

Those herbs are excellent suggestions!

I would also add that bathing with eucalyptus will help you break bad habits and patterns, and lemon will aid you in breaking the unhealthy emotional and spiritual bonds to your ex.

You could do a series of cleansing baths with the uncrossing herbs mentioned by Professor Ames, and then follow that with a series of baths aimed at leaving behind your habits and ex. Or alternate. Or combine!

But to make it easy, you could use Uncrossing bath crystals to rid yourself of all the built up negativity, and then mix Cast Off Evil with the Cut and Clear bath crystals to work at cuting away all the bad stuff.

Make sure to cleanse your house as well! Use some Chinese Wash to wash your floors, so that your living environment is conducive to your recovery. Or you can use a tea of the above herbs, or the bath crystals mixed into some mopwater for the same purpose.

Best of luck!

What about Devil's Shoestring? (To "tie down" certain behaviors/habits.) Or would that clash with the notion of "casting them off"?

[Papa Newt]

No, Devil's Shoe String is wonderful to use for this. It is one of the herb packets that is included with the Cast Off Evil Spell Kit.

[heartexalted]

Awesome...thanks!

[lulakalani]

I need to make a LOT of changes in my life and am very overwhelmed. First off, I'm in my mid-40s and am determined to quit smoking. In addition I need to be taking my meds consistently (I am ADHD), exercising, working on my art and writing etc. In general I feel like I'm stuck in molasses and need some help with getting and staying motivated to move forward. I'd love advice on a product(s) that will do this --road opener seems obvious enough but what else? Thanks!

[Mama Micki]

Cast Off Evil is used to get rid of bad habits and addictions.

[Mary Bee]

Crucible of Courage gives you more of a "backbone" to stand up to your temptations. Plus it smells great

[Joseph Magnuson]

I used Cast Off Evil Oil on 4" candles every day for a week to start myself getting into a routine of remembering (daily) just what I wanted to do and why i wanted to quit. It worked very well. Combining this with Crucible of Courage, as MaryBee suggested, would be a very good idea!

I'm in the same boat here. The man I'm with (coming up on 5 yrs now) is a good man, a protective man until he is around old influences and he is easily manipulated by other women that boohoo to him (giving them money, a shoulder, ect.) Most of the 5 years he has turned himself around and was sober of marijuana. He went to Culinary School in another state which I fully supported and finished with flying colors. He has finally returned home and the "old friends" who don't truly care for him and are more than willing to use him then throw him under the bus (why he cant see this I don't know) are back preying on his generosity (our money) and time spent with me.

So to the point, I truly want these particular people out of his life, thus getting them out of mine, and help him with the addiction. I understand the freezer spell (the tongue might be an issue)but have recently ordered a "Cast off evil" dressed sachet triple strength because it will be needed(thank you Lucky Mojo).

My question is: Can he carry the sachet? He knows what I do with magic so he would not really question why I'm having him carry a bag or stone. The bag is prepped but do I add anything else or would it be best to keep on my alter with his picture as recommended in the thread for other addiction?

I also ordered a reconciliation bottle spell to better our relations since his safe return home but I need to be sure I can get past his addiction. I love him and I know he loves me but it seems "maryjane" (marijuana), is stronger than I at the moment.

Sorry to be long winded,
Domino

Hi Domonique and welcome to the Forum. Don't apologize for being long-winded, your situation calls for a certain amount of detail and thus it's only normal that you provide it. You're in a difficult situation indeed and addiction is a hard battle even for someone willing to let go and deal with it. It's also a problem that can be recurrent since one slip off the band-wagon is all it takes to have to begin the fight again anew. Having a strong support network is really important when recovering from addiction and if your partner is open to it, a community group dedicated to clean living or a local NA chapter can help immensely.

With regards to your quesetion, yes your partner can carry the mojo hand if it has been made for him (has his personal concerns in it), however at that point you should not touch it again - it becomes his work and it will be his responsibility to care for and dress the bag. Keep in mind that a mojo is also not usually the type of work that you do on another's behalf, it's something that they work themselves (the exception usually being a blessing mojo for a new-born). You can read more about working with mojo hands here: http://www.luckymojo.com/mojo.html.

If you want to work on his behalf, then you can make a doll-baby for him and do Cast Off Evil work on that dolly. An excellent forum thread on doll-baby work answers most questions on the subject: doll-baby,-voodoo-doll,-poppet-question ... t8946.html

Blessings and best of luck to you both.

I, too, have a special person in my life who I've come to realize has a powerful addiction to alcohol; he is a lovely person with a truly kind heart and in so many ways I could see us building a life together. We were long-distance dating for much of the past year+, I recently moved to his city so that we might move our relationship to the next step, and I see that although he is what AA would consider "high-functioning". Most of his life revolves around alcohol: morning "hair of the dog", drinks at lunch, happy hours, and drinks into the night. He drinks more in one day than many people I know drink in a week.

I feel such utter sadness about this, not only for my own dreams for us to someday have a happy life and family together, but also because it is so hard to see a good man destroy himself in such a way. His alcohol addiction is not only destructive to his health, but also is proving to be a tremendously expensive habit for him. It is difficult for me to broach the subject with him because I know that he will most likely never want to speak with me again, and I care for him deeply.

Although I will very likely explore some of the helpful spells posted above, I was wondering if you might also have one that you would suggest for me as the partner of an alcoholic? Perhaps something to help me say the right thing at the right time, or for the saints to help me see the right path? Or maybe for me to have the strength to figure out the right thing to do in this situation?

Thank you for your help and patience in reading my lengthy post. : ) Happy Holidays!!!

[aura]

Hi LadybugNW,

in addition to the Cast Off Evil spell for the remission of alcoholism here: http://www.luckymojo.com/castoffevil.html; in order to say the right words and have the strength for that difficult conversation, you may want to consider the following product combinations for yourself:

Baths:
1 part King Solomon Wisdom bath crystals
1/2 part Clarity bath crystals
1 part Crucible of Courage bath crystals
1/2 part Mercury bath crystals
1 tsp crumbled deer's tongue herb

Anointing oil:
1 part Crucible of Courage
1 part Mercury
1 part Sun
1/2 part Crown of Success
1/4 part Road Opener
-a piece of deer's tongue and some chips of angelica root in the bottle u combine the oils in.

Blessings and success in your work.

[Laila]

The herbs Saint John's Wort and Kudzu really do help with curbing the cravings. Google each herb + addiction for more information. A good Vitamin B complex and a general whole food multivitamin is also highly recommended. New Chapter has a whole food multivitamin called Calm that really does take the edge off. Acupuncture is also extremely helpful.

From Lucky Mojo, work with Cast Off Evil products. Good luck!

You don't specify any real problem, except that he drinks more than people you know and that you think he may eventually experience health and financial difficulties due to drinking. You do not say that he is violent, he blacks out, gets DUIs, is without an income, etc. It doesn't sound like he is "destroying himself," just not fitting into what you want. I suggest that you move on and find someone more compatible with your values and lifestyle.

[Lady Marie]

Great suggestions and I think that Blessed Matt Talbott might be a good spirit to work with. I smoked 25 years and quit 7 years ago using a mild sedative for the first 72 hrs while the nicotine receptors created by my brain died off from being deprived. After 72 hours it is habit not physical withdrawal. Why quit was a good resource for me. You have no idea how beautiful oils, baths, herbs will smell once your olfactories and taste buds are actually working. Best of luck you will make it if you avoid nicotine altogether otherwise it is a long torturous process. I had no idea how addictive nicodemon was but once free I find something amazing every day that I could not have appreciated had I still had my senses dulled by smoking. Cast off Evil, Crucible of Courage and online support at a cessation board will take you on the first steps. Wanting to quit is everything. If you want it you will make it happen. Best wishes and may you kick the nicotine beast.

[Domonique]

Thank you so much. I was trying to stay focused and positive but when you are in the mix it's hard to not allow your anger, hurt and frustration lead you to places one should not go in an emotional state. I recognize that should I do something to keep these women and substances away it could back fire and come back 10 fold to me. I need to be sure I putting out positive and healing energies and not pride and anger.

As to him working in a group, one day he's game the next (usually after being around influences) he is I'm not ready to quit.
Christmas day was to me with me but he spent most with these people and hour with me, then home. I was hurt but oddly not truly angry. I have been wearing Citrine and placed crystals all over and it seems to help the thought process.

After I posted here, I was at work and while leaning against my car a Crow was squawking at me from a light post....I knew it was a message. When I acknowledged him(the crow) I sat with my car door open my legs out, the crow landed on my hood, squawked about 5 times at me (so close I could touch it), I said "ok I get it".. I have been careful as to what I am choosing to do for the moment. I thought it was a death message but I'm not sure what to think, anyone have an idea?

[LadybugNW]

Thank you, Aura! That is exactly what I am looking for.

Re: Mama Micki: Just came here for the kind of information that Aura gave me, not to divulge intimate details or to be judged for not doing so.

[Mama Micki]

Re: Mama Micki: Just came here for the kind of information that Aura gave me, not to divulge intimate details or to be judged for not doing so.

I merely gave my opinion based on what you posted. No one is "judging" you or asking you "to divulge intimate details." It appears that you got involved with this guy without knowing much about his day-to-day life, which includes more drinking than you like. The real question is: Do you want to try to change him or would you be better off finding someone else? You are not married and have no children together, so I think you should cut him loose and find someone else. You can use Cut and Clear if you decide to do this.

If you proceed with doing work on him, at least set a time limit, so weeks don't turn into months and months don't turn into years while you wait for him to become what you want.

[indian_conjure]

Situation is this my Father is a chronic alcoholic. He has been drinking ever since I can remember and recently for the past few years he has been drinking two times a day and creating nuisance in the family. He is not willing to give up drinking at any cost. So what can be done to make him stop drinking and return peace in my home.

[indian_conjure]

I have a gay friend who has recently admitted to me that even though he has a loving and caring boyfriend he just cant control these urges of having sex outside of their relationship and kind of addicted to it. Although my friend dearly loves his boyfriend but does sex more with others than his BF which is also creating problem in their relationships. He wants to stop this habit of having sex with others and wants to be faithful to his BF from his body and soul but just cant bring himself to control these urges. So what can be done with this situation.

[Mama Micki]

Cast Off Evil supplies are for getting rid of bad habits, addiction, and evil companions. He can light a Cast Off Evil vigil or a white candle (plain or figural) dressed with Cast Off Evil oil.

[Mama Micki]

Exactly how much is he drinking? Two drinks a day hardly qualifies someone as an alcoholic. If it's a lot more than that, Cast Off Evil can help.

[indian_conjure]

Well he drink maybe 2 or 3 shots in the morning and at night maybe more because be becomes a complete drunk and causes nuisances especially abusing my mother.Other than the drinking he is more or less sober.

[aura]

Hi Indian_conjure,

there are many techniques and approaches to the problem discussed in the thread I have merged your posts into. Hopefully some of these can help.

Blessings.

[catherineyronwode]

In addition, there is also a thread about love spells to be cast on alcoholic and drug addicted people. It's in the Lov Spells area of the forum, here:

Love Spell w/ Alcoholic Drug Addicted Violent Abusive Person
love-spell-w-alcoholic-drug-addicted-vi ... 16399.html

[Domonique]

It all started with Love, wanting to save a love, and wanting to be loved by him.......It has ended in silence.......
It has been a while since I have posted here. With no answer as to my last post. Some answers came to me( via spirit guide) before I could prepare.
1. The crows message. My father ended up in the ER with a massive heart attack 5 days later.
2. I ended up in the hospital 10 days later, and again on the 16 (my bday lol)
3. My love has now gone MIA sord of speaking. Just stopped communicating in all ways, phone text, visits. I have nothing of his to make a doll, I continue to pray and light candles for his health and welfare and hopes to stop the drugs and hurtful friends.
4. I emailed privately a question and never got a response. This was early on though.

I feel as if maybe that was my sign that no help was needed, 15 days later I had another crow incident, I ended up in a ditch and my pop back in the hospital. That time I was more prepared when the bird came to me.

I want to get angry and lash back at what is haunting me, stalking me (in a sense), then I hear through others this person dabbles. I think it best to remind others that what they do can come back 10 fold to them. Sometimes what we want for others is not what is always best for them. Sometimes when we dabble there are emotions that come into play that can affect a spell. Know that to practice you must clear your mind and heart, and be careful who you attack. I will do more to protect myself. I'm sure it is nothing I have casted as I have not sent anything out...yet.

Please note the "5's" I did.....

Think you for the time some spent addressing my post and I will continue to enjoy reading and learning from all of you.
May the good spirits guide you and keep you safe. My Love, faith and guidance help those loved ones from the destructive paths of drugs. I have lost mine, don't give up on them ladies and gentle men. People here are wise and knowledgeable but as it has been said by many, magic is not always the remedy for drug addiction but it can help if you get a move on it
Good luck to all....
Domino

Hi LM Family,

I hope everyone is doing well. I had a question regarding a spell which Ms. Cat had shared on her Radio Show quite a while ago. Maybe in 2011 or so. The spell was to get someone (in my case my husband) to stop drinking. She had mentioned to take some of the alochol he drinks (e.g beer or wine, or whatever the case maybe) and red pepper, vandall root, sulpher powder, cast off evil and to take it to the graveyard with his hair and dig a whole and put it in there. She had also mentioned to ask for permission at the grave before hand.

Now I need some clarification:
i) My husband drinks beer, wine, black lable, gin (everything) so which one would I take to the graveyard? Could it be anything which he has at home? & how much?
ii) Does it matter what time I take it to the graveyard? Could it be during the daytime?
iii) How do I ask for permission at the grave? and do I offer anything?
iv) Also, do I mix all the ingredients in the alcohol and then pour it in the hole?

I appreciate the help. I have already ordered the items from Lucky Mojo and will perform this once I get them.

Love,
Sweetnshort

[Mary Bee]

Now I need some clarification:
i) My husband drinks beer, wine, black lable, gin (everything) so which one would I take to the graveyard? Could it be anything which he has at home? & how much?

I'd mix a little of each liquor that's in the home and put it in one bottle. Use a regular sized liquor or wine bottle.



ii) Does it matter what time I take it ... e daytime?

I'd take a spell like this to a graveyard at midnight.
iii) How do I ask for permission at th ... anything?

There are several ways people use to pick a grave at which to work. Some people just pick a random grave. Some count 7 graves in from the gate and use that one. Some people take a dime (used as payment) and, standing at the gate, throw it as far as they can inside and whatever grave it lands on is the one you go to.

Bring an odd number of silver dimes to pay the spirit of the grave. You can just say prayers and ask politely if the spirit will help you. Then pay attention to how you feel. You'll get a feeling of "yes I will help you" or "no, please go away". If the spirit agrees, you can use that grave. If not, you need to find another one.

iv) Also, do I mix all the ingredients in the alcohol and then pour it in the hole?

I believe you bury the whole bottle at the grave.


Good luck with your work,
Mary Bee

[sweetnshort767]

Thank you Ms Mary Bee. I appreciate the clarification

Hi

I really need your help and advice. I have been together with a wonderful man for almost 2 year now. I really love him, and I know he loves me too.

He is a alcoholic, and he knows it, he want to stop drinking, but he is stubborn and afraid. The last 6 months have been very hard and painful.

His drinking has been worse, and his behavier too. He can be very mean to me, agressive. He can call me lots of hurtful things. And then after he regrets it. But now he starting to lose control over himself everytime he drinks. He is like two people. A good and a bad guy.

Last week I told him that im very worried about him, I see how he changes. Im afraid of him when he gets agressive and mean. He started to

pick on me, Iam the one who need help, Im a bitch, he also started to lie to me, he told me that his mother thinks Im stupid and sick.

And his friends too. I can not talk to him anymore. And everything is on his conditions.

He dont want to see me right now, he is very selfish. I run in to him today, he was drunk. But I saw in his eyes,a lots of love and sadness.

I am also an alcholic, but I have been in AA for 20 years. I could be a wonderful support for him. ( not save him). I have been very honest to him from the start. I can talk about my feelings and show them. And I am the first women in his life, that he have love. He is very afraid of love and comittment.

What can I do, to help him to find the courage to get help? He really need help. What can I do, so he let me in his heart? He is so afraid of love.

I miss him so much, and I dont want to lose him. I have some of LM products here at home. Cast of evil herbs, love products, follow me boy, loadstones,

Right now, Im burning a candle with love me oil. But I feel it needs some more powerful work here.

Its urgent, he has stop eating, he just drinks. He is going to kill himself. He have not work for 5 years. He is vey sensiitve and afraid.

And its break my heart when he rejects me like this. I could be a wonderful support.

Please help me! Please forgive my poor english

[aura]

Hi Luna,

You know from your own long and hard-won experience in AA that until he wants help or hits bottom, he won't go and get the help he needs. Nothing you do or say can change that. Therefore, rather than Love Me work right now, concentrate on the Crucible of Courage and Cast Off Evil along with some Healing Miracle and perhaps a bit of Road Opener.

You may also, if you work with Saints, consider petitionning Saint Martin (of Tours), patron Saint of alcoholics (amongst many other things as well). A standard prayer to him is the following:

''Blessed Saint, you were born under pagan ways but since your childhood you were chosen to be a prince of the Church and, as Bishop of Tours, many souls were redeemed and liberated from the satanic forces through your prayers, austerities and blessings.
We humbly ask for your intercession before Our Lord Jesus Christ because we want to be worthy of the Holy Spirit that lead us from darkness to light into the eternal kingdom, forever and ever.''

For your sake, I hope that with such work your man will come around. But that said, give yourself a firm time limit on how long you'll work on this because after working so hard to keep yourself on the straight and narrow, you deserve to be loved and cared for in return - not giving energy without getting anything back.

Many Blessings,
Aura

[Mama Micki]

I posted earlier in this thread about two saints, Venerable Matt Talbot and Father Mychal Judge, who were recovered alcoholics. Please read about them and petition them if they appeal to you. You can use Holy Oil, All Saints products, and/or Cast Off Evil if you do.

[Luna]

Thank you for your support and help, I wonder how I can best work the cast of evil products in this matter? Any tips? Also about the courage matter?
I also want him to come closer to me, let me in his heart. So he can feel trust and love to me. to help him in this situation-
Sometimes he so close to me, he can talk about his problem, then he just reject me, make me to the problem....

I really love him, and Im willing to give it time, about a year. Please, any advice? About the magical work

[Olivialeigh]

I am recently broken up from a bad news relationship with an emotionally unavailable man. I realize this is a pattern for me and I am seeking therapy to recognize the red flags and treat myself with more self love and respect. My goal is to separate myself from this man once and for all (he keeps trying to worm his way back into my life and sadly I love him and find myself tempted to speak with him). Its been a struggle to ignore his please to take him back and I am trying to make a positive change.

Devi Spring mentioned some great suggestions.

Are there any other recommendations one might suggest that may aid in my healing process and help me get the most from my therapy and actually apply it in my life and choices?

[Olivialeigh]

Thanks Apollo. I dont know if the black walnut spell is absolutely necessary because I dont think Ill ever see my ex again we live 2.5 hours away from each other and dont really have mutual friends. Im not really tempted to facebook stalk him, Ive blocked him from my life on every avenue. We have No contact which to me is a good way to get rid of a toxic person in your life. I definitely think that the king solomon wisdom kit is a perfect idea. My goal really isnt just getting over him, but making smarter choices and having more self love and respect and trusting my intuition and gut enough to know when to fold and run away or totally avoid a bad relationship.

Id really like to start surrounding myself with positivity , because I believe that like attracts like. King solomons wisdom - great choice thanks!

[Apollo Dark]

Olivialeigh,

Glad to help. It sounds like you know what direction you want to go. Have you had a reading? That might give you some ideas on your present situation and what you might expect for the road ahead.

Best of Luck to You!

[more rainbows]

Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right place.
I'm separated from my husband. He moved out in November and finally got his own place on Saturday. He comes around Tuesday, Thurs, Fri, Sat and Sun. He takes us to eat, buys groceries, pays bills, takes us to the park, sometimes I make dinner. He paid for the cat the see the vet.
Still, he is very self-centered and does things that hurt me. He is alcoholic, smokes and tends to feel sorry for himself.
He gained even more weight over eating and now his feet hurt him. He's been to the foot doc 2x for treatment.
Last week, it was like he really wanted to tell me all about it, and the new ugly athelteic shoes he bought.
And he knows I like the new Pope so starts conversations with me about him, even sent me another link to news about the Pope today.

Still he bolts as soon as are daughter goes to bed, unless he has to tell he needs to do something.
Like last month, he was throwing a bachelor party in Pismo so he wasn't going to be visiting. I didn't really believe him, so he sent me his email confirmation for the campsite "It's something I can't get out of. The other guy has baby born prematurely."
(But our 14 year old daughter was born prematurely and has special needs, so volunteers for bachelor party???")
Then he texted me if he could take us to dinner when he was coming back?? We had at an Italian place with him.

Or, like last night, he packed more stuff, all he could carry, but sends me a link about the Pope today??

Sunday night he was really self-centered and after I made dinner, sat and ignored me afterward and chatted with our daughter when I told her it was bath time. I had put effort in to making things smooth Sunday, (our daughters needs for education and exercise, dinner etc) and I told him I felt punished, and de-motivated. There was still her laundry to put away and the kitchen was a mess, and he was just sitting basking until he had to jump up and check the score of a game. I told him when he was here I expected him to be concerned about what was going on here. I said I wasn't going to be chiming alarm.

So last night at dinner, he gets me another soda when he sees mine is empty. Later at home, he helps and tells our daughter she needs to not be sneaky when we play UNO, play by the rules. He points out he is concerned about what is going on around here, then he packs more stuff when she goes to bed.
I'm still hurt and confused. I feel like making an effort at anything, being a mother to his child or a partner to him, gets me punished.
A local reader say we could be happy together if he stops drinking.
I have my daughter with me all day due to the spring break and I couldn't sleep last night. I asked for prayer on the Crystal prayer site and listened to mediation music.

I keep getting hurt by him in some way.
I want to feel better and I want him to stop hurting me right now.
Healing candle/oil?
I'm all distracted with these hurts and need to be there for my daughter.

Later for long term will be some other work. I did other work on him before.

[Susan Barnes]

Hi More Rainbows,

In the last line of your post you write; "I did other work on him before." What other work exactly?

My heart goes out to you, it is difficult to please another person when you aren't certain of what they want and how to meet their needs when they aren't being upfront with you or themselves. It is easier to figure it out when you know what it is you want and need from them. Sounds like he is unable to meet your needs or a part of him doesn't want to meet your needs. But he still hangs on to you. I see your dilemma. And I feel your angst
I've was in a similar position in the past. But after the same B.S. from the person I knew I decided to become informed and read, prayed, joined a church even though I wasn't born in the church I joined, I joined because they had a strong healing ministry. I also broke off some friendships that fed into the same depressive/ bad man/poor me mentality and finally left the relationship.

Like an addiction, who you hang out with can drag you down to the sewer. Be mindful of who you are conversing with, confiding to, trusting, and who your child hangs out with.

Anything can be an addiction. Hoarding, smoking, drinking, being a victim, fame, sex, success, failure, thieving;( not just items or lovers, but ideas as well), money, working, food. We're mammals, we get addicted. But as humans, we can become whole and leave addiction behind in the past. It's your choice, you're a smart person, you have a good heart, you know you can do what is best for you or not.

Probably the first thing would be to get some solid grounding here. If it were me, I'd get a reading before starting anything. You can get an excellent reading from a reputable reader to asses the basic situation and a map to figure out how to get to where you need to be in this situation in order for you to achieve your ultimate goal and to solidify what your ultimate goal is in the first place. For a list of skilled workers go to;
http://www.readersandrootworkers.org

In the meantime, Use some cleansing and blessing spells for yourself and for your daughter.Him to if he keeps coming back and is in the home.


Hold this man up in prayer. Hold your daughter up in prayer, hold you up in prayer. Ask the Lord for strength. No matter what has happened or what has been said or unsaid. Forgive him if you feel it in your heart to forgive, and after your prayer, give this problem up to God. Ask God if this man may continue to be in your life as a mate. Ask yourself if he deserves you and if so, why and how? As a husband, lover, friend, ex?
Be certain in your mind how you want this game to be played because you're allowing him to dictate the rules of this game and I say game because it looks like it's being played out as a game on his part even if he's conscious or not of what he's doing, he's hurting you.
Give it a time limit. A time limit puts you back in the driver's seat.

For helping him cut and clear his addiction to alcohol, cleanse yourself with a cleansing bath, believe he is well, visualize him well and not drinking, and there are spell kits on the lucky mojo curio co site that address these situations. Cast Off Evil is a good one.

In the book Hoodoo Rootwork Correspondence Course by Catherine Yronwode on page 281, the second paragraph addresses this. The title of the section of the book I'm referring to is, "How can I help someone addicted to alcohol and drugs?"

You can also go to http://www.luckymojo.com/spells.html for a list of free spells that include blessing spells and other information that pertains to your case.

Cleansing baths are wonderful for you and also your daughter to cleanse you both from these types of negative energies he's got swirling around him right now.

I'm not a fan of the things he says to her when ya'll are playing card games, it's not cool and I hope you tell her she's playing just fine. Sometime people accuse others of what they themselves are up to.

I'm also really curious to know what work you did on him before.


Respectfully,
Miss Olivia

In the beginning I did come to me, hummingbird, road opener and red skull, candles. Even added a little honey to some of them. Even did some Intranquil Spirit.
Sine things were stalled I did some red and black love cleaning candles and some baths with Rue oil from a local shop.
Later my mother became ill so I did a healing candle for her. I haven't redone Hummingbird or skull or
He knows to to drink around us anymore. He knows I won't allow it. He knows now to show up on time when on the days he says he is. Once he was almost an hour late and said it was fine because a football went into over time. Another time he was going to be late since he was looking at apartments. That time I told him he couldn't come in. Later he had had to put the visit on pause one Saturday to go look sign rental papers. But this last time of moving he did everything early so as not to impact the visit time.
I have been doing a prayer daily. Reciting traditional ones. I asked the St. Dympha group to put a candle for us and joined them for a small donation.
I had told him to leave in the summer if he wasn't going to be about anything for us, he packed, but than asked to work it out. He had yelled out our daughter the night before and they sounded like brother and sister calling names. I hated it. He hasn't done that since.

Dear More Rainbows,

Do you drink?

[Susan Barnes]

Ok.
Let's go with a muli-disciplinary approach.

1. Allow no alcoholic beverages in the home. If you have some, get rid of it asap.
2. Your daughter and husband aren't brother and sister, it may appear to you they fight like brother and sister but to a young female, doing battle with a grown man who may have alcohol issues is very scary. She's gone back bone and I like that but she shouldn't have to be in the position of being your protector. She's too young and it could affect her future outlook with men.
3. Put the Uno game up or give it to a charity. Uno means one, this is symbolic of the # 1, me, me, me. Let's get them working together not against one another.
4. Get him in A.A. and you and her to an Al Anon meeting. They have them for adults and for teenagers. In your first post you used the term daughter in the plural form, if there is another daughter, she needs to be in Al Anon for young people with her sister. If you drink, even just socially, try an AA meeting for yourself, if it doesn't apply stick with the Al Anon meetings, plus you'll meet other people who are in the same boat as you and you can share. compare and learn.
5. Stop being inconsistant. One time you won't let him in for drinking or whatever, and the next time you let him in and he misbehaves. You're rewarding the bad behavior and making a not very example for your daughter because to him, she's fair game and he knows it. She a strong young female, but the strength could be misdirected as she gets older.
I like her strength, she's the one in the house who stands up to him. But she shouldn't be placed in that position.
6. You mention you used Intranquil spirit and did other work as well. He's acting like someone who's had some intranquil spirit work done on them. He's angry, quarrelsome, and a bully.
There is a thread here on the forum on Intranquil spirit, look it up and read every post on the topic. He's going to need Blessing, tranquility, healing and sugar jar work.
7. Get a reading by an approved, experienced rootworker. I'll list the link again: http://www.readersandrootworkers.org so you can see the core of the issue and receive directions on what to do or undo. You can check out the customer testimonials if you need help deciding at: http://www.customer-testimonials-(22.html)
8. Read about alcoholism here: alcoholism-+8119/#p45538
9. cleanse your home. I like Chinease wash, go to : http://www.luckymojo.com/chineasewash.html
10. use baths. Protection for your daughter and for you. Also for you use Clairity and King Solomon for wisdom.
11. recite Ephesians chap. 6 for protection for yourself and your progeny.

If you don't get out much, take a walk everyday. Fresh air does wonders to calm and clear the mind.
Take Care!
Happy Easter, Passover and Spring!

Please forgive me if this a dumb question. I have never ever petitioned to a Saint.

My husband just lost his father and is deeply depressed and has now turned n to drugs and alcohol to numb his pain.

I have purchased a candle of St. Dymphna to try n ease his depression. My question is would it be ok to add LM Cast off evil oils n herbs to this candle since im trying to rid him of both??? Again sorry if this is a dumb question

[catherineyronwode]

Smiley,

Saint Dymphna is petitioned in cases of mental illness more than additions. For addictions, people who work with Catholic saints are more likely to petition Venerable Matt Talbot.

[Mama Micki]

Another saint you can work with for addiction is Father Mychal Judge. He was a recovered alcoholic and one of the first victims of 9-11. I mentioned him in the thread about helping an alcoholic friend or relative.

Thank you both!:-)

Hi dear all,

I am very new & I was wondering does having alcohol in your system HOURS BEFORE you do work or drinking THE NIGHT BEFORE, affect your work?
I don't drink much, I drink occasionally but I do work EVERY DAY and i want to make sure if alcohol affects it or not.

many many thanks

[Mama Micki]

As long as you are not hung over and feel good, you're probably OK. Alcohol affects everyone differently. It does not sound like it is causing a problem for you. Make sure you are taking care of your health by sleeping enough and eating right.

Great! Thank you for your answer : -)

[stelz]

I suspect it's like anything else. Total sobriety is sound policy. A little bit of alcohol can also be good, and can actually enhance things. Too much just makes a mess.

[Apollo Dark]

Using Alcohol in Conjure is a longstanding tradition. I have heard of some Rootdoctors imbibing for a better connection to spirit, and also Alcohol is commonly used for paying spirits as an offering.

Use in moderation though, as Alcohol can help in lucid thinking and spiritual experiences, but over using it can cause complete loss of ability to properly function.

Be responsible with the Alcohol and know what is a good amount to aid and what is too much.


Best of Luck to You!

[Joseph Magnuson]

I second everything Apollo said. I have had amazing results stone sober....as well as under the influence. Never overdone though, of course.

[MissMichaele]

Hoodoo also draws from folk medicine, of course -- which used to be standard medicine, centuries ago. And the use of alcohol tinctures of herbs is ancient, and has lasted into the 21st century. There are many recipes for herb-dosed whiskey or brandy that have magical uses, of which you take a teaspoonful every day.

Unfortunately I can't call any specific examples to mind just now. I know one of them was to mantain male nature -- and no, it did NOT have John the Conquer in it!

The other major junction of alcohol and hoodoo is folk cures for alcoholism.

Miss Michaele

[Caulbearer]

WOW thank you ALL for the wonderful answers!
I honestly needed it

[Joseph Magnuson]

You are very welcome. That's what we are all here for. I love when the different voices of the forum come together to help answer a question. Very nice indeed.

[KhonsuMes]

Hi Miss Michaele -
One Male Nature alcohol preparation is Juniper Berries in Whiskey..

[catherineyronwode]

Khonsu Mes is correct! A female nature version is Angelica Root in WHiskey.

A protection tincture i was taught in Oakland in the 1960s is Devil's Shoe String Roots in Whiskey.

There are others.

Whiskey is the alcoholic vehicle in hoodoo, and the use of whiskey serves to distinguish down-home African American practices from those of other cultures, for the simple reason that the distillation of spirits in the USA has always centered on grain alcohol from locally-grown grain species such as corn, barley, and wheat. The distillation of fermented grain mash produces whiskey, which has a long history of use as a tincturing vehicle in American, English, and Scots-Irish folk-medicine and magic.

Hoodoo practitioners do not make use of distilled spirits of fermented sugarcane byproducts (e.g. rum, used in Afro-Cuban folk-medicine and folk-magic, or distilled spirits of fermented potatoes (e.g. vodka, used in Eastern European folk-medicine and folk-magic), or distilled spirits of fermented agaves (e.g. tequila, used in Mexican folk-medicine and folk-magic), for the simple reason that these regional forms of distilled alcohol are not part of the cultural inheritance of hoodoo.

The use of distilled spirits of fermented wine-grapes (e.g. brandy, used in central European folk-medicine and folk-magic) is found very rarely in hoodoo, but it did gain some traction due to the popularity of brandy as a sort of "nicer-tasting" substitute for whiskey in medicinal tinctures to be ingested by those who do not ordinarily consume alcohol.

[Joseph Magnuson]

The list of things I have soaked in alcohol for magical reasons/results is never-ending!
