Can Spells Back-Fire, Blow Back, Cancel One Another, Reverse On Me, or Harm Me?

If I crossed a woman, could I prevent her husband from having the effects spill onto him if I'm calling for specific conditions, such as her health, to be effected... but not finances specifically, since that would directly harm him. Would I want to do a specific kind of protection work for him so that he doesn't get caught in the cross hairs?

He's close enough to the work that he'll probably feel the fall-out candiijojo, therefore is you want him to come out unscathed, protection for him would definitely be a plan. Working a doll-baby of him (or white wax candle used as one) with blessing and protecting herbs combined with Protection candles burned on his name would be one way to do this.

I have a certain lady that I have a huge crush on . As a result I burn a pink candle anointed with love me oil. The next day I kind of looked to see if I saw the lady at her job but poof I never have seen her again at her job anymore. I would like to get an understanding of what could have happened & if it was a result of the candle spell? Do these types of things happen to others that cast a love spell?

What you are asking, Mrniceguy, is if spells for attracting love typically backfire or produce contrary results. The answer to that is no, not generally, but when working with an unknown person, you do not have much of a link to the person and you may not be able to influence her as much as you wished to.

Hi everyone,

I am just after a little advice.
I have been getting some advice from a forum mod about a freezer binding spell. I want to do one on an ex partner to freeze him out of mine and my sons life - I have very valid reasons for wanting to do so.

I asked the lady who was giving me advice if there would be any negative effects on myself or my son and she told me this was a good thread to read and ask any questions.
She said it would depend on 'what your own personal magical paradigm is' could anyone explain what this means ? Sorry if that is a stupid question.

Also, I am doing it with the intention to get him out of our lives and not to harm him & I know the intention plays a big part so does anyone think there will be any negative effects on myself or my child ??

Thank you all in advance,
Sarah

Hi Sarah,

Please do read this entire thread to begin with as it gives many answers to your question on negative effects - many versions and many beliefs. Another good reference is the following thread: ethics,-moral-justification-before-god, ... 55#p128798

When I refer to ''your own personal magical paradigm'' I am talking about your own set of magical beliefs and/or the magical system within which you work.

For example, many Wiccans ascribe to the 3-fold law (rule of three, law of return) which states that what you send out will be returned to you three-fold. There is no such belief in Hoodoo. Many people also believe in Karma and reincarnation: again concepts that are not a part of Hoodoo.

So from the point of view of a Conjure worker, no you shouldn't have any negative effects from your work if you are keeping yourself cleansed and if your target isn't protected (or reversing the work) or fighting back.

Now if you personally ascribe to other belief systems such as the onces briefly described above, then you could possibly run into some difficulties for yourself. Neither set of beliefs is ''right'' or ''better'' or ''true'' - they all co-exist and work for different individuals working within their own paradigms. What your own beliefs are or mileage is will vary and nobody can decide that for you.

Hopefully that clarifies the statement.
Blessings.

I've been doing a little work to help my daughter with stage fright. I ordered a candle to be burned for her, but have no idea if it has been yet, so I felt like I needed to do something myself since the event is next week

Any how, both times I did my own little candle spell, she ended up with a headache. The first time, she was at her father's house just relaxing. The second time, she was at school. I'm wondering if there is a connection? I won't do any more while she is at school, just in case. The headaches weren't too bad, thankfully. Also, the time she was at her dad's, she was super tired the whole day. Tired enough that her dad was wondering if she was coming down with something. She took a nap and woke up feeling fine.
Could my work be having this effect on her?

If the work is intended to help then I dont see how it causes a head ake, but we also dont know what work you did.

green_ma · Unread post by **green_ma** » Sat May 17, 2014 4:08 am

The candle I ordered to be burned for her is the crucible of courage one, at the suggestion of someone on the forums. If I would have had time, I'd have ordered some other stuff to do myself, but the announcement of her solo was not soon enough.
I felt like I needed to do something while waiting (an honestly do not know if the candle has been burned yet), so I was just doing a simple candle spell. What I said is this : "You are relaxed and calm while playing your instrument in front of others. You are confident and steady before and during your solo." As simple as that is, I was very careful in choosing my words and I think it's okay.
I don't think what I said would cause her headache, but rather just the fact that work was being done on her. I didn't know if that is something that can happen. If, like j82 suggested, she is sensitive and if that can make her feel things more than others. She is a sensitive person in general. I'll do another and see what happens. I'll just have to do it at a time when she is home and can rest if it happens again.
Thanks for your replies!

Hi Green_ma:
I have a few cents to chip in

As I was reading this comment thread, a thought occurred to me. Do you protect your daughter from the evil eye? Children and babies are thought to be common targets of the eye and are especially vulnerable to it. If your daughter is talented, and has won a solo spot in a show (which I am sure lots of "momsters" would envy) it is likely that the evil eye is affecting her. And, guess what, it can cause headaches, even flu like symptoms like you mentioned she was having at her father's house. There are lots of ways to protect from the evil eye. First off, cleanse her of it. Then immediately follow up with an evil eye protection. Here is a link to lots of useful information on the LM site.

Best of luck to you and your daughter,

Hello, green_ma ,

And I still think that a headache is a warning sign.
My suggestion to you is to get a reading on this. Find out exactly what's going on.

Also, you may want to consider taking her to a physician to get a check up. There may be something medical going on that has nothing to do with the magic.

I wanted to give a little update on my situation since you took the time to give me advice. After reading about evil eye, I don't think that was what was going on. The headaches and tiredness didn't last long, and I believe with evil eye it is more of a constant thing. So I decided that she is super sensitive and took it to mean that my work was affecting her, but not in a bad way (I mean, what I was saying couldn't have hurt her). I did this again 3 more times. One of those times, she got a little headachey, and tired again. The other 2 times, she felt fine, but I sensed a small change in her confidence. Long story short, the concert was last night and she played amazingly well! She was only a little nervous right before her solo, but it didn't affect her playing, and she played the part better than ever before.
I still have no idea if the candle was burned for her by MISC, so I don't know if that mightve helped her as well. But either way, I'm going to assume this is how she reacts, until I can find out more through a reading.
Thanks again for taking the time to help me

Hello, theusurper2 ,

It's not wise to perform spell work while you're ill (unless it's a healing spell or a dire emergency). The spells are then weak.

If you suspect that the spellwok is making you ill, then try a 13 herb bath followed by a protection amulet on you while doing spellwork

In last March, I did a spell to cleanse and protect my house. It seemed to work for a little bit, and but then eventually the house went back to feeling like it usually does. But then in the past few months, it seems like the "vibes" in the house have gotten worse, or at least they have for me personally. I've read in the Hoodoo Herb and Root book that the fear of magic backfiring comes from a culture that fears magic, but I thought I might as well as ask. Or is it that the cleansing spell was just weak, needs to be done again, didn't work, etc.?

Hello, Luckbewithme876,

Never seen this type of magic backfire.

Did you maintain the protection? Cleansing everything without protection is going back into the rain without a raincoat.

The protection maintains the cleaning. Otherwise, thins can come back and you'll have to cleanse all over again.

Sorry!

Oh, that would definitely explain it. Thanks for the reply. What would you recommend for a house protection after a cleansing?

I'm not sure if this should go in this thread, but I couldn't find another thread that looked suitable for it. Is it true that you need to do a divination before every work, and not just negative ones, or is that another superstition that people believe in?

Thanks, Miss Aida.

Though I was actually talking about in general. I've heard people say that you have to make sure that a spell is "in the cards" before anything you do, except for protection.

Like, even if it's just a simple steady work spell then you'd still have to do a divination for it. Same goes for love spells, since technically those're manipulative.

Is that just another superstition that's sprouted up in the magical community?

Unread post by **JayDee** » Sat Jan 17, 2015 7:50 am

Luckbewithme876,

I dont think you need to do a full blown reading before everything you do..that would be rather cumbersome to say the least. It seems more like someone suggested getting a reading before work and you are looking at it in teh extreme case. Sure for work that is big I would get a reading. Like if you are doing love work to get a person I would get a reading and see if it is in the cards and how exactly to do it.. Or healing work I would look into a reading to see what is causing the illness and what workings would help. Daily work to bring money in I would just work like a money jar, but if I am about to sign a big contract or obligation sure I would check the cards to make sure I am not making a mistake or missing something. With practice and learning thetraditions comes wisdom and in time you will learn to read the signs of the work, IE candle how they burn, omens or signs outside of the work like hearing a name, conicidences etc. LIke if you are doing a money spell and find a $20 bill the next day, thats a good sign to the work.

I read for myself all the time. Of course there are some situations where I really can't objective and need someone else to read for me. I don't get a reading for every step I take, but I think readings (I use tarot) can be really helpful in just providing information you may not have access to. I often ask, "What do I need to know about this situation that is not yet known or hidden from me?" Or I ask what the results will be if I take such and such steps. Or how to best approach something. Yaddah yaddah. You get the idea. It gives me a glimpse of the bigger picture and everyone just likes to make the most informed decisions possible. I don't think readings are necessary for anything that doesn't require exercising judgment (unless you're just doing predictive readings or daily one card readings, the usual tarot practices, etc). For instance, if I just wanted the cute guy up the road to notice me, or I wanted to attract a new lover, I wouldn't bother with a reading. I'd just do the work and hope for the best. If I was trying to help my girlfriend bring her boyfriend closer to her, I would do a reading to see why her boyfriend is distancing himself. If it's fear of commitment, or another woman, or past hurts...those would all require different approaches. I hope this makes sense.

Sometimes, like recently, I go off half cocked and set off a bunch of spells in a fit of anger and then I make a mess for myself that I have to go back and clean up.

If I had actually done a reading first, I probably could have saved myself some time, effort, and new problems to solve.

Thanks j82 and luckycat13. That helps. I was told that you have to do a reading before any spell/potion/etc. you do, except for protection. Of course, he's a Neo-pagan, and I've noticed by now that people who do European magic seem to have more rules than conjurers do, such as the belief that potions/mojos/etc. have to have odd numbers of ingredients, or at least they do if everything I've read by Miss Cat is anything to go by.

I've always been taught NEVER start any spell work when menses (menstrual cycle), comes on because they will not work. I have stuck to this tradition since child hood, and just wanted to put it out there.

Wait until the cycle is gone off completely, then start spell work of any type. Even friends from Africa has told me this as well, from their tradition.

From Voodoo, Hoodoo, Witchcraft, etc. however; you can talk to the spirits or get readings, & of course continue to still work any spell already in place.

DO NOT START A NEW ONE!

Hi there,

I know this is my first time to the forum, but I had a load of trouble with my neighbours, and was given Black Salt by a way more experienced witch I really, usually trust for banishing the negative energy. So, I do the work, tossing it at their doorstep, and that night I have terrible dreams about my teeth crumbling out of my mouth (apparently this could also be a really common anxiety dream brought on by my situation, so I'm open-minded about the cause of that).

So, she gives me a call in the morning asking if I had done the work, because she'd given me Hot Foot powder instead. What.

Now I am terrified about what may have occurred, I have cleansed and protected the house, my loved ones and myself and spread Holy Water around the place and prayed for protection and forgiveness. The only thing I can think of that might help me is that when sprinkling I said that the work would be done 'only if this be just in the eyes of the Lord.' I can only hope that it will fail, but now I'm freaking out about the 'karmic' style backlash, if that's something common in Hoodoo.

Any thoughts gratefully received, apart from the 'you idiot' ones. Believe me, I already know I am. I'm not a big fan of my friend right now, either.

Hello, Lizanne,

We realize that you are new, but please don't start new topics on old topics. I am trying to clean up the forum and decrease our number of topics so that Miss cat can add a new program. It's a long hard job for her and I. So, in the future, just go to the upper right hand corner of any page of the forum. In the dark green area, there's a white search box. Just add your key word and a bunch of topics will pop up for you to chose from. I'd appreciate it!

Now, I don't like your dream at all. These type of dreams are psychic warning signs. But I would encourage you to see a Physician and get a health check up also.

HotFoot is not anything dangerous. And I think she did a good thing by giving you hotfoot. There is no "backlash" or "backfire" with this work. And any work that is justified is not going to hurt you.

There's got to be something else going on and I would suggest 2 things:

I have received a number of questions about the perceived "danger" of one spell "conflicting" with one another.

Some of these conflicts are obviously the result of poor logic on the part of the practitioner -- performing a Return To Me and a Revenge spell at the same time on the same ex-lover, is common, for instance -- and it is easily avoided by thinking your work through before you begin.

Another kind of "conflict" is not actually a conflict at all. It arises in the minds of those who are new to folk magic and become fearful that one spell will "cancel out" another, negating both spells. A classic example of this fear is that performing a protection spell in a home or or office will prevent good spirits of love and luck from entering.

This misapprehension can be corrected by giving the new practitioner more insight into the methodology of hoodoo.

One unspoken key to the authentic practice of folk magic is to gain an understanding that the spirits, herbal and mineral allies, and even angels and archangels listen and heed. In other words, if you put up Camphor squares, they are not like mindless land mines that will blow up the spirit in your mojo hand. Instead, you give them instructions or relay instructions for their use and, if all goes well, they will carry out those instructions.

How people approach this varies based on the culture in which they were raised or the culture in which they were introduced to folk magic.

Some people address an herb or resin by name, as in "Camphor, Salt, and Silver Dime, i set you here to guard and protect my room against intrusive spirits and negative energies." In my experience, the majority of the people who speak this way are Neo-Pagan and/or New Age by training,

Some address a higher power and request assistance by means of the herb or resin, as in "Lord, may this Camphor, Salt, and Silver Dime be a guardian and a shield to me and protect my room against intrusive spirits and negative energies." In my experience, most of the people who speak this way are Christian and/or Jewish by training.

Your mileage may vary.

Hello, Moonlightdream,

Yes, it can happen for a few reasons, including performing the work at a spiritual level but undercutting it in the material world, or going up against another practitioner who opposes the work very strongly with a countering spell. There are several other possible reasons for spell failure in addition to these.

I am a seeker hoping to become a student in the near future. I have been interested in Hoodoo for a while, but never knew where to start. I was also working on a course in Italian Witchcraft and could not devote the time to try to find pit more about it. I wanted to ask what the concept is regarding curses or harmful root working and ethics in Hoodoo. I am in no way making a comparison between Stregheria and Hoodoo, but when harmful magic is used in Hoodoo is it in response to someone harming you or are there ethics involved? As a Stregheria practitioner we don't harm the innocent or other Witches; however harm me or mine and that person is no longer an innocent. Magic is not just done put of anger and frivolously as it is to be taken serious and utilized responsibly. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

The idea that one spell will "cancel out" another is definitely an idea being spread on the internet. I had never heard of it until then. Perhaps it comes from movies or television shows.

DATZZZ · Unread post by **DATZZZ** » Fri Oct 09, 2015 9:28 pm

Coastwitch,

The idea of spells canceling each other out comes in two flavors. Either two opposing witches or warlocks cast opposing and mutually canceling spells in a form of warfare, or an inept newbie trips himself by casting two incompatible spells that mutually cancel his magical plans.

I think the discussion here has been about the second form of problem, the inept newbie, but the first version is found in popular culture, as you mentioned. I recall the idea of opposing spells canceling each other out being a plot point in an old Dr.Strange comic book, for instance. The story of the warring Pennsylvania Dutch wizards in the movie "Apprentice to Murder" also comes to mind, and although it is a modern film, it is based on stories told in the 1920s.

If it is part of folklore at all, and not merely an artifact of popular culture, the tale of two sorcerers whose spells cancel one another out would be represented in folk TALES, not folk MAGIC.

Hi,

I am just wondering about "backfire" and I am confused...

1) As was going to ask , how I may know if I got "backfire" but if I good understood what I read you are saying it is not something like "backfire" because the spell will work or will not...

2) but isn't the jinx a "backfire"?

3) If is not "backfire" then why are spells to remove jinx?

4) I am lost in this matter... Is that possible to get jinx or not?

5) How to protect myself against it?

6) This is going to happen when I'm doing a spell or anytime after too?

7) What should I have with me when doing spell to protect myself against to get jinx?

Can someone help me?

Thanks.

Hello blossom

In my experiences, sometimes a spell of negative intention will affect the spellcaster, but the reasons for this are not called a "jinx."

You may want to use some protection oil before you cast a negative spell. http://www.luckymojo.com/products-protection.html

But, if you don't want any part of the effects, use the 13 herb bath: http://www.herb-magic.com/13herb-bath-13.html

blossom · Unread post by **blossom** » Thu Nov 19, 2015 6:10 pm

Thank you,

8) If the spell can affect the spell caster, does that mean the spell also will affect the person to whom it was addressed or the spell caster will absorb whole spell and the spell will not go to the addressed person?

9) As English is not my first language I will ask, is "13 day supply" it's mean that is for all 13 days? So, just one pack is for whole cleansing?

10) To take the bath in this herbs is enough or I should collect a some of that bath water and pour out on crossroad as I read it should be done in this way, but is this same with 13 herb bath from LM?

Take care.

1) Spells don't "backfire" but If you are doing negative spell work, we ask that for crossing work, to protect yourself: http://www.luckymojo.com/protectionspells.html

And to cleanse with either the 13 day bath (link given above) or to cleanse with hyssop: http://www.herb-magic.com/hyssop.html

11) But now I am wondering if my target will feel it in the way as me or it will be more powerful on him/her?

12) After the 13 herbs bath I have also collect some bathwater and throw it on the crossroad?

Take care.

Hi blossom,

11) There is no way to know how or even if your spell will affect your target. Only Spirit has that answer. You feeling the effects simply means your spell is out there but how it lands isn't anything we can predict here.

12) You would collect your cleansing bathwater and throw it at the crossroad at dawn.

Good luck.

Hello, blossom --

To answer your questions:

1) Spells don't backfire.

2) No, a jinx is not a "backfire."

3) There are spells to remove jinxes because jinxes are small curses or runs of bad luck ad people wish to remove them.

4) Yes, it possible to get jinxed.

5) There are many and varied protection spells. Look them up!

6) A jinx is not usually linked to your casting a spell -- unless you cast a spell against someone who reverses it back onto you.

7) Protection work is often undertaken after casting a negative spell, to protect against reversing work. If you feel that casting a negative spell may constitute a sin against God's law, you may also ask forgiveness of God.

8) The only time i see spells affecting the spell-caster is when the spell-caster calls upon an unclean or ungodly spirit for help to curse someone and the spirit messes with them. The Intranquil Spirit is a prime example of that. I also see blessings coming to those who bless others with spell-work. That is, if you work for someone to hae a happy marriage, your own marriage may improve. I believe this is just God's way of blessing you for your kindness. I have never seen anything such as you describe in which a spell partially affects someone but is partially absorbed by the spell-caster. I think you are trying to make magic obey some sort of energetic sceintif rules similar to those found with magnetism, electricity, or seismology. Magic does not work tat way.

9) One single pack of 13 Day Her Bath can be used for one day or for 2 or 3 days, depending on how much water you use. The boig bag simply contains he amount found in 13 single bags and is cheaper because it is bulk-packed.

10) It is always recommended to dispose of bathwater. Read this page on disposing of ritual items: http://layingtricks.html

11) There are so many variables in a case like this that we cannot predict the outcome. Since

12) It need not be at a crossroads. Read this page on disposing of ritual items: http://luckymojo.com/layingtricks.html

The spell I did it was back to me/come to me with break-up and sending the woman away who the man I want back is seeing right now. But as I don't want to hurt that woman I sent her to meet her true love, soul mate and happiness which she will find with the other man but not the one I love. As I am not experienced maybe I used some not right words and somehow I put myself into it.

Thank you everyone for an answer and help.

Take care.

Blossom, i find it interesting that when something went wrong after your spell, you immediately thought that the spell itself backfired.

If it were me, i would immediately think that the OTHER WOMAN did a whammy on me.

You are trying to undo this lady's love life. You can say that you don't want to hurt her -- but think about it -- she worked to get where she is with that man. You think she's gonna go nicely? Well, some do and some do not.

What you are experiencing is not some kind of "back fire" or "blow back" -- it is an outright reversing of your cursing!

That's a different topic for a different thread.

Thank you for such a detailed explanation!

I understand catherineyronwode what are you saying about that other woman, but it made smile on my face

as the situation is opposite..., I was working about 10 months "on this man", but not with spells but with my pure love and a lot of patient to heal his from the bad experiences from the past to make him be able to live a life in full again and then when the things was seems getting better the other woman came along and took benefit of my work, she "took" him like a jack pot on lottery! But this time I ma not going to give up that quickly.

So I did a spell to jinx someone's car. What happened then was that our car got in an accident.

Then, I did a spell for them to have financial ruin and then that day my bank account was hacked and tons taken out. The bank fixed it of course.

Is it safe to assume that this person has protections up, or that they are reversing my work back to me?

How can I break through their barriers?

Dear foxesstone,

Yes, I would assume that your enemy is well protected and may have mirror spells or reversing spells in place to return curses.

Reversing is not the same as a spell backfiring on you because of some sort of cosmic justice. It is the result of carefully considered actions on the part of your enemy or someone like a parent or paid root doctor who is protecting the enemy.

It is possible to break through such defensive reversal spells, but you don't know what may lay behind them. I suggest that you get a reading before proceeding with counter-measures, and also be sure to pray on the matter and ask if pursuing a curse is justified in God's eyes.

Hello everyone! I am confused about a few things I'm fairly new to casting spells so I need some assistance. I have never been jinxed or what ever this girl put on me is called. My situation I will try to make short.

I had a reading done because my intuition was screaming for months. It was confirmed voodoo was done. It was more cards on my ex than me. The reader said she broke us up. An he still loves me an wants me back but what she has done to him is also what's been affecting me. It's been 2 weeks since this happened. My life has fallen totally apart. Lost my job today as a cause of all the confusion, depression, massive weight loss ect. I feel like she tormented me slowly over these last 7 months like so I would deteriorate!! I did question God like why am I here? Is this my life? I was suppose to marry that man! After 2 1/2 yrs!!

Fast fw: So two weeks later after cleansing myself and I barely was able to do that.

Now I'm not angry as I was because I am Christian an prayed for ways not to hurt her. HOWEVER this Madness has to stop!! I pray im Justified!!

My questions are

1. I would like to stop her one good time from ever laying anything on me again. Would the mirror box and sending it to Paris work just as good as the graveyard?

2. Can that reverse?

3. I'm not sure if the reversal on her is needed as well and if so which one goes first?

4. I would like to do more but I think I'm boiling

to bad now! I have read multipul protection furums but because i will eventually be working on him I feel i need help choosing the right one to protect me from backlash from him or her. I'm waiting on my book (The art of hoodoo candle magic an rootwork) though i haven't started his cleaning by proxy (black male candle for now)

5. Do I wait till I'm done with her first?

Sorry for going left! I also forgot to mention his sister is a spiritual reader as well, however she wasn't able to pick up the spirit until the day I had my reading. She is the one who removed what was cast on me and was able to tell me the girl put it in me. (Slip up with him sexually). Now she did tell me to forget about her brother and take care of me. I don't know if she is protecting him. My questions if she is,

6. Would it have backlash if she is doing work for him?

7. Upon seeing her again how high a possibility she could read I'm working her brother to get him back?

8. How long should I wait to do anything pertaining him and spells? Such as lm scull head and lm clarity oils.

Hi NyGo,

We can't speak to readings you got from unknown sources, so whether or not his sister can pick up on what is happening with you isn't anything we can answer here.

As to your questions on deployment, yes you can mail her to Paris or bury her in a graveyard. Mailing her away can send her packing, whereas a helpful graveyard spirit can hold her down and immobilize her. The choice is yours.

I would work on her first then turn your attention to your target for cleansing and clarity. You can start that work as soon as you are done working her.

Hope this helps.

Good luck.

Hi Miss Athena

I do understand what you are saying about the readings. Or maybe I'm asking the question wrong. Like for instance I can feel certain things sometimes even before it happens. I've cast small spells in the past. haven't tapped into that side of myself for some yrs now. Probably scared of what ill find! I would burn my white candles from time to time. This whole situation has me reevaluating and also wanting to go further with learning hoodoo. NO ONE WILL EVER HURT ME AGAIN OVER A MAN!!

So my question is about spiritual Feeling. Because I never worked her brother so I never questioned this. It seamed like she couldn't read anything off the gf either. Until I called the demon to reveal itself I knew something was wrong with me.

As a spiritual reader would she (or anyone spirituality connected) be able to pick up that I'm doing work on the target? As far as like making a doll by proxy for the uncrossing and protection and later the honey jar ect?.

Nothing hurtful they know I love him an vise versa I just need to know do i keep my distance or keep being myself I live really close to the family.

Hi NyGo,

Got it. The best way to keep your work secret is to put some bay leaves in your shoes while you are performing the work. This will keep other spiritual prying eyes away from you.

Read this forum thread on how to keep your work invisible, as it has ideas and advice that could further help you.

Good luck.

Good luck.

NyGo,

1. Either spell is traditional.

2. Please read this thread; it can be opposed, and the opposing spell could indeed be a spell to reverse the curse, but there is no reason it should reverse.

3. Start by protecting yourself. If you choose the mirror spell, that is a reversal. If you chose sending to Paris, that is a hot foot type spell. Neither comes "first," just choose one or the other.

4. A simple protection spell and a spell of cleansing should be sufficient.

5. Perform your spells and then cleanse yourself. Cleanse after each curse if you do them on different days. Cleanse once if you do them on the same day.

6. You are using the word "backlash" incorrectly. You are actually asking about a counter-spell, and i already answered that. If you ask for UNJUSTIFIED work to be done, there may be repercussions, because an UNJUSTIFIED spell of harm is an act of evil.

7. That would depend on her inherent or trained psychic abilities.

8. I would wait at least three weeks for a sign and for some movement before beginning a second round of spells.

Good luck.

Hello,

Apologies if this post is in the wrong place.

I'm having some major family drama. What's worse is things were going so great!

I did a lot of enemy work on a couple of family members across some years. The work mostly centered around getting rid of them.

Eventually, I stopped doing this enemy work after I was told by an AIRR member that I should not do bad work on family.

So I stopped and just proceeded with doing LOTS of blessing work and healing work to heal all of the mess I caused.

Now, those family members have asked another family member if I did enemy work on them because they are sure of it because bad things have started happening to them.

So now the entire family is all in an uproar.

I wanted to know:

1) How can I hide and protect myself and the old work I've done? A family member has threatened to go to a witch and I don't want to get into a witch war or be cursed when I tried to fix everything and make us a happy family.

2) How in the world do I go about fixing all of this mess? It seems like the trust has been lost and all reconciliation work has been damaged.

Blessings
