Hi Lara Rivera,

I would cleanse them with Hoyt's cologne or Florida Water. Then bless them with protection oil or Saint Michael's oil

Dear Ms Melanie,

Are you suggesting that I dig them up, cleanse them and replace them?

I was more thinking in lines of "feeding them" with whiskey and prayers, or refreshing them with dirt from the grave of a rail road worker?

Hello, eponai,

You did the very best that you could.

They ought to be hidden but 3/4 of the way down sound like it's almost there.

See what happens. I suspect it will be alright because you did the very best that you can.

Take care

Hello, Lara Rivera ,

Yes, just pour the whiskey over them and then pray

Don't forget to urinate on them again to mark your territory also!

May I just ask do I have to urinate on the road spikes or could I urinate in a cup and they put it on the nails?

Thank you in advance

Hello, LA1985,

Please do not quote people. I have edited this out of 2 posts.

It is better to urinate directly on them

If you are a woman, just wear a skirt or dress. If you are a man, well, wait until dark to do it

I have an interesting quandary involving Railroad Spikes.

My property is curved at the front corner, it's a corner lot on a busy curved corner street. I lose a triangle of property about 12'x12'x24'. It's pretty big. So there 'technically' isn't four square corners on the property. I can either make it as close as possible by pushing out into the public grass sidewalk, where it still won't be four square corners but will be closer to a squarish shape, but will be off of the property lines into public property... Or would you recommend to make a nice square shape inside the property lines? It wouldn't encompass the entire property obviously, but would be square/rectangle shaped. Hmmm. Any other ideas?

I'm nailing it down to gain big-time favor with the landlord. Protection is an important secondary concern. I just got from Lucky Mojo:
http://www.herb-magic.com/railroad-spike.html -for the property
http://www.herb-magic.com/nails-square-cut.html -for outside the house
http://www.herb-magic.com/coffin-nails.html -for inside the house

I'm also anointing spikes and nails with several LM oils; Protection, Fiery Wall of Protection, Special Oil #20, Money House Blessing.

Any thoughts? Any additional Lucky Mojo product suggestions? I'll be going by the shop next week for a supply run, so this is my chance to get anything additional to help with my spikes and nails.
(I already have on my shopping list 4 of these http://www.luckymojo.com/silverdime.html to put on top of the spikes, and also re-reading this thread I think I'll pick up some http://www.luckymojo.com/oil-dragons-blood.html. Catherine recommended it.)

Hello Two Moons,

It sounds like you have or are getting the right products to use with you spikes. To your question about where to put the spikes I would place them at the edges of the property but not off your property. Make it as roughly sqaure as you can but keeping as much of the property inside the shape as you can.

Peace~

Hi! My mother has nailed down railroad spikes two moons ago. Last moon when feeding them with her urine, she could not find the one at the southwest (back right) corner. We came to the forum for advice and read that she should replace it. This moon, she could not find that spike that she replaced - in the same location. She is now wondering if she should nail down nails inside the home. Any ideas as to how to ensure that the spikes remain in place?

Hello, MsTiye

What the hell? That's weird!

How the heck are they missing? Are there kids around? Animals? Is she nailing them ALL THE WAY DOWN to the head of the spike?

She may have to do so inside.

Hi Miss Aida,
My daughter asked that question for me. I was busy at that time. Yes on the southwest corner of my property (back yard), that one spike seems to disappear. There are children but I've never noticed any on that area of my property. There are animals around. I've noticed a tunnel created perhaps by moles, I did a double check this morning and found a tunnel, Idk if a mole would carry a heavy spike so far but who knows. I also have bunny rabbits.

The first time I initiated the spikes, I think perhaps I did put it too far into the ground, the second time I made sure that the top of the spike was slightly above the ground and I placed the dime on top of it and so on as directed by the ritual. It's very puzzling and amazing that the other three are in place, dime and all, I can find them with ease, but the south side/southwest corner is an issue. You suggested that perhaps I can/should nail down inside my home. I have read on your site you have nails for apartments, it would be the square nails you have on your website? correct? If so my first question is I live in a two story home, will I need to nail down the lower level or should or should I nail down every room on the lower level? or nail down every room upper and lower level?

Unread post by **Miss Athena** » Sun Aug 06, 2017 7:56 am

Hi 99sarah,

That really is weird.

If you use them inside your home, then you would only need to nail down the first story. You are nailing your home into the ground, so visualize that as you work.

Hopefully no moles or rabbits will attempt to disturb them inside your home.

Really weird.

Good luck!

I was given coffin nails as a gift, and had them in the corners of my house.

When part of the floor was redone, the contractors I guess took one and threw it away because it’s gone. I know I can replace it but my question is do they need to be from the same source? Should I replace all of them or just the one?

Trying to learn more as I grow.

Thanks.

UndercoverMystic --

There is no "rule" about the nails having to come from the same source, but when a spell is messed with, i always do it over. Someone broke youe spell. Do it over.

Pick up all the remaining nails and either (1) bury them all and get a new set or (2) simply replace the missing one. Re-anoint them all with an oil such as Protection, House Blessing, Fiery Wall of Protection, or whatever best expresses you desire and pray over them as you did the first time. Then lay them all down again.

I haven't been through underwriting yet and want to make sure I get my home. I have given earnest money and signed the contract. Can I use the spikes to nail down my new home? Also to help make underwriting go smoothly? Thanks for your time and help.

Dimplez -

I must confess I've never had to deal with the inner workings of building a house. However I believe I can shed a little light here.

I assume that you own the property, and are having a company or contract-person to build your house. If this is the case, you should have no problem nailing down your property, and the house being built on it. If this is not the case or what you mean, perhaps someone with a little bit more experience with your particular situation can chime in soon.

Hope this answered your question and good luck!

Unread post by **catherineyronwode** » Sun Feb 03, 2019 12:03 pm

Dimplez --

You can indeed nail down the house (and the property) before building is complete. Drive your nails or spikes into the dirt at the corners of the building and the corners of the property. Each should be prayed over and anointed before being placed. Many find that the use of unusual or old-fashioned nails has value, for it distinguishes their intentional nails from those perhaps accidentally dropped by the carpenters.

Hi All!

Last year I put down 4 RR spikes around my property to prevent the landlord from causing trouble. I have regularly redressed them Fiery Wall of Protection, RDR, and Protection oils + chamber lye. Earlier today, my landlady was walking past and noticed one of the spikes (I was not home at the time). She had her handyman remove it. When I got home, needless to say I was not pleased to see it was gone. I spoke to the handyman, who brought it back. I will have to change the position of the spike to a pot so the landlady doesn't mess with it again. Can I re use the same RR spike after cleansing and blessing it, or should I use a new spike? The other 3 are still happily in place and unmoved. Thank you!!!

Bright blessings,

Andi

EndlessSky79,

You can cleanse and dress it then reuse it, however, I would read this as a sign of something to come up with the landlord since it was removed by him. Try nailing it down in the same spot, nail it down deeper, then cover it with dirt, the idea is you are nailing the property down, nails in pots are not very nailed down.

Hi! Wondering if I could trouble you to answer this question about railroad spikes. So I put them in all four corners of the property after I bought them from Lucky Mojo (as well as nails I bought from the store as well and put them in the four corners of my actual apartment). Has been over a year and has worked so very well. But now I would like to make a smooth transition to a newer much more beautiful building where the team is a lot more respectful. Could you tell me what best timing is to take up the spikes and nails? Also what is the best tool to use to get them out??!! And what to do if one of them is covered over my so many layers of woodchips the maintenance guys surprised me by putting down one night that there is no way to find one of the four that is outside? So curious about this. Also, any suggestions on what to do that might help ensure being approved by the new apartment? Thank you so much!!!!!

Unread post by **Miss Athena** » Wed Aug 14, 2019 7:59 pm

Hello NYStarchild,

Welcome to the Lucky Mojo forum! We are happy to have you here.

You can dig up the spikes using whatever tools you feel are most appropriate given how you drove them into the ground in the first place. A claw end of a hammer may work, as might a small hand shovel. It matters less spiritually than it does from a practical perspective.

Do try and dig up the fourth one, as you would want to cut all ties to that property. A metal detector may help you to locate it.

As for getting a new apartment, please see the posts in this thread (where you will find advice on getting a specific new home):
spells-to-find-rental-property-apartmen ... 19832.html

We ask that you keep each post to a single topic, to prevent moderators from having to split and merge each question in your post into the correct area on the forum.

I hope this helps. Good luck.

NYStarchild · Unread post by **NYStarchild** » Fri Sep 06, 2019 5:57 am

Oh wait, just noticed. No answer on timing as to when best to dig up the spikes as you do work to move to a new apartment. Apprehensive here. Don't want to mess up.

Still a bit precarious where I am so need to know that I have secure place until I say I'm ready to move. Not the management company of the building. Yet don't want to block my own work. Would love direction on how best to handle. Thank you!!!!

NYStarchild,

Timing is important in some spells but not all. This one doesn't have a required time to remove the nails or place them.

NYStarchild · Unread post by **NYStarchild** » Sun Sep 08, 2019 3:20 pm

Really, but the other practitioner said to even get a metal detector to be sure I wasn't still connected to the property so if I'm doing, say, a Road Opener for the new building I want, with railroad ties in the old one as I make this transition, there's really no push-pull effect? (and not sure I can get that new one, so want to keep current one until I sign). Hmmm... maybe this is just a case of opening up and believing and just taking those ties out and trusting right one will come at right moment for smooth transition?

Unread post by **Terra Rising** » Sun Sep 08, 2019 8:14 pm

NYStarchild,

Oh, I see! I was under the impression you were about to use the detector to dig the spike up. I thought you were asking about the timing as in, the best days of the week, moon phase, day/night timing. My apologies!
You could certainly work the Road Opener but unless you remove that last spike, you could face difficulties with the actual move. Fees, movers, and delays could hold you up. I would perform the Road Opener for the building you desire while trying to find that last spike.

NYStarchild · Unread post by **NYStarchild** » Tue Sep 10, 2019 5:09 am

Actually, that should be my apologies! I wasn't clear.

Yes, on the time of day, etc, I am good. Ok so will do! I just wish I could be sure the road was open and set before letting go of this one by taking up ALL the spikes 'cause then you're kinda like, in limbo. Or at least it feels that way, and that makes me a bit uncomfortable, but I guess there is no other way. So sorry to go on a bit about this, but stability in home has been a HUGE issue for me over the last several years and just now transitioning to a new life and mindset but still getting my legs a bit, if you know what I mean. So I'm maybe overly cautious and concerned.

So funny that you ask that Alice771 because I was just about to ask the same, but with a bit of a different twist. So all the nails have BEEN up from inside my apartment as well as the railroad spikes outside the apartment. EXCEPT one I just can't seem to find. I did buy a good metal detector as suggested above. Spent so much time out there. Could not find. I actually think the maintenance men may have taken it up when they did massive clearing of brush there months ago. Now a whole bunch of squash of all things is growing there. But I was undaunted. Went under each leaf and all. Nothing. So I'm assuming it is up. However, each time I try and find a new place something odd happens where it disappears out of my hands. Now I'm down to the wire in just days to move. Just found a place and this just HAS to work. Might anyone have any suggestions for me super fast that would lock in this or whatever the right place is for me by the 31st??? Definitely so appreciated! Thank you.

Well, I can sound a bit dumb, but, I haven't understood much the procedure of this ritual, maybe because of language. (English is not my first language)

When you're speaking about "nailing a home down" with these railroad spikes, do you mean to nail them down in the floor? Or do you mean to nail down them in any part of the corner of the House? For example, a wall in the corner. Am I right?. I'm a so confused!

I'm planning to move and I'm going to be in an appartment, which floor is made of cement, let's say t's "paved", so I find it a bit difficult to nail that in the floor without making a catastrophe in a house which is not mine. That could be more easy for those who live in houses with a backyard.

Thanks for clarifying.

RisenRaven · Unread post by **RisenRaven** » Mon Oct 12, 2020 6:54 pm

Hi Alice Kyteler,

I believe you are supposed to hammer the spikes into the dirt at the corners of the land/property, so outdoors. If for whatever reason you can’t do that, but you also can’t hammer them inside your rental house, I wonder if someone could propose an alternate solution, such as hammering them into potted plants which you then place indoors in the outer corners of your apartment. (More experienced folks, would this work?)

Unread post by **Miss Athena** » Tue Oct 13, 2020 7:38 pm

Hello Alice Kyteler,

RisenRaven is correct, hammer them in the outside corners of the property. If that is not an option, and hammering into concrete floors won't work either, you will want to explore other spells.

You could certainly try hammering them into potted plants but that is less symbolic of the home than nailing into the property itself.

Good luck.

Angel Eyes · Unread post by **Angel Eyes** » Wed Oct 14, 2020 11:38 pm

Hi Risen Raven and Miss Athena,

Thanks very much for clarifying. Maybe others who have performed the potted plants ritual can tell if that works.
I might explore other spells as well, because I have no option to choose a house and a house with a backyard is impossible to me. I'm going to live in an appartment.

Thanks!

RisenRaven · Unread post by **RisenRaven** » Sat Oct 17, 2020 12:14 am

I just had a thought... if you do go the potted plant route, perhaps you can use at least a bit of the dirt from the property in the plants. Just bend down, tie your shoe, and scoop up a bit of dirt. At that point though you might just be able to go to the corners and slip those spikes/nails down into the land just as easily. Might want to hurry before the ground freezes, if you’re in an area where that will happen soon!

Biscaine --

You just wrote that one was at "the Southwest corner of my property" and that on another occasion, one was "at the Northwest corner of my property" -- butt that "both were out of place." On the contrary, if, as you say, they were at the CORNERS of the property, they were perfectly in place, according to tradition.
