Poppet Magick for a Malicious Person

Poppet Magick for a Malicious Person

 

Items You Will Need:

Grave dirt or earth
Rosemary
Sage
Piece of smoky quartz
Piece of amethyst
Some item from the person

A poppet can be sewn to represent the malicious person.  Fill it with earth (grave dirt if you can find it), rosemary, sage, a piece of smoky quartz and  a piece of amethyst. Also enclose a piece of the person’s fingernails, a lock of hair, or  another personal item. Handwriting can be enclosed if you have nothing else.  Photos can be used also.

To Bind An Enemy Poppet

TO BIND AN ENEMY

You Will Need:

A poppet to represent the person you wish to bind

Patchouli leaves

Frankincense

Charcoal block

Black candle

Red ribbon

White cloth

 

Make a poppet to represent the person you wish to bind.  Burn patchouli leaves and frankincense on a charcoal block.  Light a black candle and pass the poppet through the incense smoke saying:

 

“Hecate, great Goddess of life and death, 
I ask you to acknowledge that this Creation
of cloth be known as Flesh and blood of.(name). 
 

Wrap the poppet tightly in red ribbon, paying close attention to the area you wish to bind,  i.e.: the genitals of a rapist, the mouth of a slanderer. As you wrap, say:

Between the worlds in Hecate’s eyes
you (name) are bound powerless.
In the eyes of this world, you are harmless. 
 

Imagine a heavy net made from a white light. Imagine the net clinging to the poppet.  Wrap it in a piece of white cloth and bury it close to the person’s house  (or by the ocean and bid the sea to bless it).

Naming Your Poppet Magick

Name Your Poppet Magick

 

First you will need to form a bond between the person and the doll.  Use this simple naming ritual:

“Little one, I made you and now
I give you life I name you (person’s name)
Her body is your body
Her breath is your breath
Her passion is your passion
Her blood is your blood
Though separate you were
Now you are one.” 

Make Your Own Worry Dolls

Here is how to make your own extra strength worry dolls using your poppet. Make some tiny little poppets as above – 7 would be good! – and find 7 different coloured pieces of string or thin ribbon (tip – you can pull a string from a piece of fabric). Assign one topic to each colour – let’s say:

Purple: Magic/Spiritual/Religious worries

Blue: Work/Study worries

Green: Money problems

Pink: Love problems

Red: Physical/health/self esteem body problems

Orange: Emotional Problems

Yellow: Thought/Intellect/memory worries.

Tie one of these around each moppet’s neck, line them all up and one at a time, give them your worries to worry about. They will not only worry for you, but also in real voodoo doll fashion set to work and go and resolve these worries for you. There’s one thing though. If you start worrying about a worry you have given over to a worry doll, you are taking the worry BACK to YOURSELF and the spell is broken.  Should this happen accidentally, go back to the doll and give it the problem afresh. When the problem is resolved, you can take the ribbon off the voodoo doll and it returns to a neutral waiting state until you want to use it again for something.

How to Make a Poppet

How to Make a Poppet

 

Example of poppets made of felt and fashioned from the gingerbread pattern. Poppets have been used for centuries as tools of magical intent and most often for healing purposes. When people hear of poppets they oftentimes associate them with voodoo dolls. In recent years, pagans have helped to refine the poppet’s tarnished reputation. For the purpose of this, we will work through the basic poppet construction for a healing purpose.

You’ll Need:

Green material

Natural filler (ie: cotton)–nothing synthetic

Spearmint

Needle

Thread (made of natural material)

Scissors

Straight pins

Simple human pattern (the generic “gingerbread man” form works well)

pen or pencil

marker(s)

Step 1

Before you begin, sit for a few minutes and relax. Take some deep breaths and focus on the purpose you envision for this poppet. The emotional energy you put forth will resonate from the poppet along with the magical intent. If you wish, ask Spirit (or whichever Power you feel most comfortable working with) to be with you and to guide you as you make this poppet and that your purpose be accomplished as you intend. Keep healing, positive thoughts as you start this working. Picture the person healthy, happy and energetic with no sign of the illness, or remnants thereof.

Step 2

Basic gingerbread pattern for a poppet. Cut material to the dimensions needed in order to make the size poppet you wish. Remember to cut the material large enough that you leave some material along the outer edge.

Step 3

Cut the gingerbread forms from the material. Line up the edges of both forms so that they are even. Use the straight pins to hold the forms in place.

Step 4

Stitch the two pieces of material together leaving a large enough opening to insert the filler and spearmint.

Step 5

Fill the poppet with the spearmint and filler (alternating one then the other until the doll is filled). Once you have filled the poppet, you can use the straight pins to hold the area together until you stitch it closed.

Step 6

Use a marker to write the person’s name, your intent or to even draw the person’s features. Get creative! But ALWAYS have positive intent and purpose while making the poppet. This goes for all poppets, not just those for healing.

Step 7

If you asked for the guidance of Spirit at the start, be sure to thank Spirit.

 

Tips & Warnings

Keep your intent in mind, and in focus, from the moment you start the poppet til you finish.

For the purpose of this, depending on the size of the poppet you are making, use your discretion as to the amount of filler and spearmint used.

Other possible herbs for healing: Eucalyptus, Rowan, Cinnamon, Sage, Peppermint, Hops and Sandalwood. (Use alone or in combination.)

Choose the color of the material and herbs used for future poppets based on your intent.

You can use one herb alone or in combination with others.

Feel free to include stones associated with your intent as well.

NEVER imbue a poppet with anger, spite or any other malignant intent. Remember, that which you send out will return to you in time.

NEVER conduct any workings that would impose your will onto another person. DO NOT become involved in that person’s life without their asking you to and giving their consent. Harm none.

Such workings as above should NEVER be used in place of seeking the help of a medical doctor. All diagnoses should come from a licensed professional.
