Control and Domination with Skull Candles, Saint Martha and Filomena Lubana

Control and Domination with Skull Candles, Saint Martha and Filomena Lubana

January 26, 2022

Often, there will be times we come across situations whereby persuasion, control, and domination of others are required in order to achieve an outcome. Perhaps you hope the bank officer will retract his rejection of your loan application or, maybe you wish for a second chance with an ex. For such cases, an excellent approach to start off is by controlling the mind because the brain is the primary controller of the body. And don’t worry, the person won’t become a full-blown zombie at the beck of your call.

Skull Candles

The skull candle is a direct representation of the head and can be used to influence a decision or to put thoughts inside it. Choose the appropriate colours and herbs for the type of work.

Red: Meant for your target to think sexually and passionately of you

Pink: Used to make your target think lovingly of you

Black: Meant for enemy work by putting negative and depressing thoughts

Purple: Meant for changing a person’s mind or using in conjunction with Essence of Bend Over to bend the person to your will

Blue: Used to input tranquil thoughts

Controlling herbs include Calamus root, Licorice root, Cloves, Tobacco, Knotweed, etc. If you are doing a love work, you may mix in herbs such as Damiana and Catnip or, if you are doing a cursing work, you may mix in herbs such as Walnut Leaves and Vandal Root. If you want the person to say something specific to you, you may dress the mouth with Deer’s Tongue to encourage communication.

Dig a small hole underneath to load the herbs and personal links such as hair, fingernail, or a small photo. Cover the hole back with the wax that was dug out by warming and softening it. Inscribe the person’s name, date of birth, and your intention on the candle. Say, for example, I want John to ask me out, then I may write, “John David Cole 9 August 1980 ask Alurea out on a date”.  Then dress the candle with the oils, light the candle and pray over it.

Besides using skull candles, there are two spirits that most Hoodoo practitioners work with when dominating others, such as a lover, a boss, or someone of superiority. Both of them respond quickly to prayers and work fast too.

Saint Martha The Dominator of Bethany

Saint Martha is a Catholic saint, friend, and follower of Jesus. She is famous for her domination ability due to the legend of her taming and tying up a monstrous beast with her girdle in Tarascon, France. Hence, she is always depicted with a dragon or lizard-like creature at her feet. She is a wonderful spirit ally for women and often worked with to drag a straying husband back home.

Saint Martha Laminated Prayer Card

The saint is called upon using a red or green candle. You may dress it with Essence Of Bend Over Oil or Three Kings Oil. Get her prayer card and light the candle in front of her image. Offer her some nice flowers and a cup of water or coffee if you wish. Ask if she is willing to help you with your request.

She typically answers by showing signs of reptiles such as crocodiles, alligators, Komodo dragons, and geckos. For instance, I once saw news of a crocodile stuck in a car tire. A perfect representation of a beast being subdued and bounded. Another time, I had a cute gecko following me around. It was the funniest thing. Of course, not everyone has the same experiences with a spirit. She may send other signs as well, so watch out for them. If you don’t get a sign after some candles, then it is most likely she doesn’t want to work with you.

Filomena Lubana/Santa Marta La Dominadora

Many confuse Filomena Lubana with Saint Martha. Some call her a black saint whereas, the other is a white saint. The truth is, she is a different spirit — a Misterio of 21 Divisions Dominican Vodou. The Misterios are elevated spirits created by God to serve him and assist humanity.

Filomena Lubana is well known for her domination powers and sensual nature. Purple, red, and green are her sacred colours. She is depicted with a boy and a snake due to the folklore of her rescuing a child at a cemetery from a snake by charming it. Her offerings include black coffee, raw egg with honey, and coffee grounds. She is often served on the floor as she manifests in a snake form.

Santa Martha/Filomena Lubana

In the 21 Divisions religion, she mounts a priest who enters a trance and then slithers around the room. This means the spirit takes temporary possession of a selected human body to communicate and work through it. This is similar to a local Taoist Tangki, a spirit medium who tiao dang (translates to dancing god). She does not speak, however, because she is a snake.

Now you don’t need to be a priest to work with Filomena Lubana. That is provided she gives you the green light. If so, she can be called upon with prayers and candles. Her signs are typically big snakes such as anacondas, pythons, and cobras. She may even visit you in your dreams.

Likewise, she can bring back a husband who left for another woman and dominate your enemies, situations or lovers. This powerful spirit can also accept other petitions so, always check with her.

Simple Ways to Maintain Spiritual Hygiene

Simple Ways to Maintain Spiritual Hygiene

January 18, 2022

Evil Eye Glass Bead

Spiritual cleanliness is a subject that many people frequently pay little attention to. After all, why bother cleansing something that most of us are unable to see physically? Now, although we cannot see how much spiritual gunk we have accumulated on our bodies and in our homes, the effects they bring about do manifest in our real lives.

How you ever experienced a streak of bad luck? Do you feel like nothing ever goes your way? Do you encounter problems one after another in a certain aspect of your life? Do you feel like there is nothing but conflicts and disharmony in all your relationships? All these can be signs of poor spiritual hygiene. In worst scenarios, they may be the results of a crossed condition or a bad curse.

Regular spiritual cleansing helps us in keeping negativity, the evil eye, and jinxes at bay. A purified vibration also allows us to turn our luck around, drawing in blessings and manifestations quicker and easier. In my personal experience, every single time after a series of spiritual cleansing, I would win some lottery money on a consecutive basis (didn’t even have to do any gambling or fast luck work).

How often to do a spiritual cleansing will depend a lot on your environment. If you are always surrounded by negative people in chaotic situations, it is probably good to cleanse a few times a month. Otherwise, most can get by with just doing once quarterly. If, however, you have a spiritual enemy, it is necessary to cleanse as often as you can.

Common ways of spiritually cleansing the body

  • Taking a spiritual bath before dawn such that it completes by the time the sun rises.

Herbal bath: Steep a mixture of botanicals in hot water for a while. Herbs that cleanse our spiritual energies include Agrimony, Eucalyptus, Hyssop, Lemongrass, Nettle, Pine Needles, Rue, Verbena

OR

Bath crystals: Dissolve a packet of Uncrossing or Van Van bath crystals in hot water.

Make sure you are physically clean. If not, take a regular shower or bath first. Then, strain and mix the infused water in the bathwater. Pray as you pour cups of water over the head and wash/rub your body in a downward motion. Place a bowl at your feet to catch some of the “dirty” water (contains all the spiritual filth).

When you are done with the cleansing, air dry instead of using a towel. Wear clean and light-coloured clothes. After that, go to a crossroad, with the back facing east (rising sun), throw the water collected earlier over your shoulder. Use a little force such that it lands further. You do not want to wet yourself with it. Walk away without looking back.

  • Burning candles

Van Van Candle

A series of Uncrossing and Van Van candles should suffice when it comes to casting off negativity and the evil eye from our lives.

  • Raw eggs

Roll a raw egg all over your body, from top to bottom, letting it absorb any harmful energies. After you are done, you may either crack it open to check for any abnormality or throw it at a crossroad/tree.

Common ways of spiritually cleansing the home

  • Floor washes

Pour a little Chinese Wash into the mop water so that the house gets spiritually cleansed at the same time you clean the floors. Start from the back to the front of the house, all the while praying. Collect some left-over water for disposal at a crossroad or somewhere away from the house.

  • Incense/Smudging

When cleansing a huge area of space, burning a purification incense mixture of benzoin, camphor, and eucalyptus becomes extremely convenient and thorough since the smoke is able to reach every corner of the room. Keep the windows open so that the smoke carries the negative influences out of the house.

Sage and Palo Santo Sticks

Besides resins and herbs, sage bundles and palo santo sticks are also popular products that a lot of people love for their spiritual cleansing properties.

Hope you find the information useful.

Choosing a Spirit to Work With

Choosing a Spirit to Work With

January 9, 2022

Catholic Saints

Sometimes I get asked why do I not work with certain spirits such as deities and goddesses. To answer this question, I have to explain from their standpoint. But before doing so, I must clarify I am neither a Christian nor a part of any religion. I contact spirits directly to work with them.  So, therefore, I get a sense of what is happening over at the other side in actuality. For convenience’s sake, I am just going to classify all the spirits into three groups — Good, Amoral, Evil. This will allow me to describe the foreseeable interactions between us humans and them.

Good

There is a common assumption that benevolent spirits are expected to perform good deeds and help mankind whenever we are in need. Not really. A lot of them are not interested in our mortal affairs, and I totally get it. Some pass down their wisdom, teaching us the foundation and essence of spiritual cultivation, and proceed to another dimensional world. Adios.

Out of those still hanging around, many have little incentives to aid us too. Why should they be? They have already attained immortality, minding their own business with no cares. Even if they want to help, it is usually done in a passive manner in exchange for some form of long-term worship and devotion. Some spirits require their devotees to come from the same lineage, while others are accepting of those who are not. Even if you fit the bill, do not presume they will favourably answer your collaboration request as the ultimate decision lies with them.

Then, we have another group of spirits who truly wants to assist humans; they will go out of their way to guide us to our highest potential, protect us from dangers, and become our friends for life. Although we can pretty much work with any willing spirits, I would suggest approaching spirits that fall under this category for a start. The spirits include ancestors, spirit guides, saints, and angels.

Archangel Gabriel Laminated Prayer Card

Ancestors are generally obliged to watch after their descendants. However, you have to use your judgement because not all of our ancestors have our best interests when living and remain so when dead. Otherwise, they can be very helpful in taking care of our needs in this world.

Spirit guides are our loyal companions on our spiritual paths. They tend to stay with us for a long, long time until perhaps our souls return to the spirit realm. Most spiritual work can be done through them if you have a team.

The saints I am referring to are Catholic saints. A saint is a holy and honoured human who shares eternal life with God in Heaven after death. That said, you do not have to be a Catholic to work with them. They are nice to everyone. Each of them has their own patronage (expertise and interest in occupation and/or specific matters), although they can accept other types of requests as well (check with them). They will pray and intercede on our behalf since their prayers are generally more efficacious than ours.

Also, there are some saints who are not formally recognised by the Catholic Church. One such example is the Mexican folk saint Santa Muerte. Anyhow, that does not stop people from asking her for all kinds of assistance ranging from money to love to protection to justice, and so on.

Some popular saints people work with

Saint Anthony – finding lost things

Saint Cyprian – removing curses and helping in occult studies

Saint Dymphna – healing mental illness and anxiety

Saint Expedite – whatever matter you need it done speedily

Saint Gabriel The Archangel – conception, communication, and finding your purpose

Saint Joseph – finding a job or selling a real estate

Saint Jude – desperate causes

Saint Martha – dominating others such as a lover or a boss

Saint Martin Caballero – bringing customers to a business

Saint Michael The Archangel – protection and justice

Santa Muerte – marital fidelity, and others

Saint Peregrine – comfort for those suffering from cancer

Saint Peter – opening the roads and removing obstacles

Saint Raphael The Archangel – finding a life partner and healing of sickness

Saint Therese – can be called for most general matters (She lends her ears to anyone who goes to her. Yep, she is really sweet.)

Our Lady of Charity (Oshun) – obtaining love and money

Their prayer cards are available here. Their statues are available here.

Archangel Michael Oil

Then we have the holy angels and the archangels who are messengers of God and are more powerful than the saints (hmm, except a few like Santa Muerte). They, too, cover a specific range of duties. Some people mistakenly think that angelic beings can only do good. Not true. We can certainly call on angels to mete out grave punishments and cast down our enemies. After all, they were the ones who destroyed sinful cities and sent plagues to punish King David.

And at last, I want to dedicate this section to Our Blessed Mother, Virgin Mary. I owe this to her, and as a matter of fact, most Singaporeans do, but they have no clue that she came to save us. This is what I call active support. She deserves our love, and I have got to write it down.

I have mentioned a part of the story in this post “What really happens when your spiritual vibration is high?” When the children here were under spiritual attacks last year, it was Our Blessed Mother who sent an angel to visit me in my dream, informing me so that I could ask for help. The angel was in a guise of a female detective in an impeccable suit, pursuing tracks of a demon. She did not identify herself although, I highly suspected she was Archangel Gabriel, and she referred Our Blessed Mother to Madonna. I am not going to describe the whole dream, but yes, I had a glimpse of the demon in it.

You see, Our Blessed Mother has so much unconditional love for us. In a time of crisis, nobody else turns up to help except her (not that I know of). If we consider the number of Marian apparitions there were in the past, I think it is crystal clear how diligent she is in helping humanity. It is no wonder she is very much favored by God. So do love her back too by saying the rosary or Hail Mary prayers regularly.

Rosary

Some guidelines to follow when working with a spirit

  • Always approach spirits with love and respect. They will treat you the same.
  • Do not attempt to use them for any derogatory purposes, such as to boast on TikTok in order to draw views and garner attention. They see right through our intentions.
  • If you have promised an offering after the work is done, make sure you follow through.
  • Use the coloured candles associated with the spirits.
  • You may use Angel oil to dress the candles for the angels. I also sell Archangel Michael Oil.
  • You may use Blessing oil for the saints and the spirit guides.
  • Useful herbs and resins to use when calling spirits include Althaea, Yerba Santa, Mugwort, Wormwood, Frankincense, Copal, Benzoin, and Myrrh.

Yerba Santa Smudge Wand

Amoral

This group of spirits is open to bribery and will only work for a paycheck. They will grant any of your requests so long you fulfill your end of the bargain. However, they have no loyalty and can potentially switch sides anytime. I do not recommend you find such volatile spirits to work with. It can be dangerous for those who are inexperienced in dealing with spirits.

Evil

And, of course, finally, we have many evil entities lurking in the dark around us. Please steer away from all of them, and beware of those witches or sorcerers who use these evil spirits. Although they may be able to give us what we seek, those tend to come with a huge price tag and heavy consequences awaiting to be played out in the future. Some evil spirits will promise you a lifetime of wealth and luxury in exchange for a soul of an unborn child. Believe me. There are grave repercussions.  It is not worthwhile to go down this path.

There are also some new-age witches who claim they work with demons to grant their clients blessings, health, creativity, etc. Seriously? I do not know what nonsense is this. I bet they are not even able to summon a demon, because let me set this straight, a demon’s main goal is to inflict maximum harm (meaning death, mostly) in a grisly and brutal way. If the person is still alive, that means the demon sees a chance in possessing the body to commit violent crimes. This is especially so for people who are weak-willed. Otherwise, it is planning to deceive the person to give up the soul.

As I have explained many times, evil spirits can attack anyone, regardless of our genders, ages, races, and religions. Many people (particularly what I have noticed in my country) barely have an ounce of spiritual protection on them, and this is largely due to a lack of understanding in spiritual matters. They do not think it is any of their concerns at all until a tragedy happens for real. But even then, they still do not have the slightest idea that it was something evil that did it.

Ok. For those who are, however, interested in identifying a demonic attack, these are the usual signs. A demon tends to target a single victim at a go. Sometimes it is a duo. Rarely it will attack more than two in a single incident. It will also try to choose a secluded place to strike when the victim(s) is away from the crowd. They will usually cause deaths through strange structural/mechanical (fault) accidents or shocking, violent murders. It will also have to do the act fast because if there comes another person, which is not according to its plan, it will abort the mission and try again the next round.

Therefore, spiritual protection is really very important for everyone. Burning a protection candle and reciting Psalm 91 regularly is better than nothing at all. Should you suffer an attempted spiritual attack, the protection measures can at least buy you some time until you figure out something is wrong and engage a spiritual doctor for further assistance. If the person is, unfortunately, possessed by a demon, enlist the help of an exorcist immediately.

How to Lay Down Hoodoo Tricks?

How to Lay Down Hoodoo Tricks?

January 7, 2022

Cayenne powder

In Hoodoo, a trick refers to a spell on an individual or a group of individuals that is effected by physical contact, and is often deployed in discreet.

Types of tricks

  • Foot-track

This is a very popular method whereby powders are sprinkled in the direct path of the target to step on. Just remember to focus, call out the target’s name, and pray the intentions. Doing so ensures the trick links to the specified person or group and not some other passerby.

Example: You want to drive Jane Doe out of your workplace and could only lay the sneaky trick at a common area such as the aisle when nobody is around. Sprinkle Hot Foot Powder on the floor by briskly rubbing your fingertips so that it looks inconspicuous while walking backward and calling Jane Doe to get lost immediately.

Besides powders, we can also use spell bottles (small bottles filled with herbs, oils, curios, and petition papers) and bury them into the earth under the doorstep or front pavement. This may not be feasible for city dwellers as most have concrete doorsteps. If so, we can also use water mixed with bath crystals to do the tricks.

  • Tricks on objects

Any object that the target comes into contact with can be used to lay a trick. It can be a book, gift, pen, clothing, paper, doorknob, cash, cup, key, and so on. Choose the appropriate medium to deploy the trick based on the material of the object. Again, you call out the target’s name and pray the intentions.

Sachet powders instead of oils is a better option to deploy on paper since the latter tend to leave behind stains.

Oils are typically good for metallic and leathery surfaces. Use in moderation. Otherwise, the object ends up greasy and easily noticeable. A little oil is sufficient.

Bath crystals are suitable for fixing clothes, among others. If the object is of a large surface area, such as a table, dissolve the bath crystals with warm water inside a mist bottle, and spray it all over.

Incense can be used to smoke most objects. I do not sell self-lighting incense as its main ingredient, potassium nitrate, is a restricted substance here Nevertheless, it is still possible to use incense to put a trick on an object. Just burn the relevant herbs on a charcoal disc, pass the object through the smoke, and state the intent.

Example: You want more luck in winning lotteries. Dust your cash with Fast Luck and Money Drawing Powder, and dab your coins with oils of the same formulas. Pray Psalm 23 over the money, and use them to buy the lottery tickets.

Example: Your family members are at odds with one another, and you want to bring harmony to the family. Mix in some Peaceful Home Bath Crystals while doing the laundry.

  • Tricks in food/drink

This method is used either for love or enemy work. If it is for love, the tricks come in the form of edible herbs or body fluids like menstrual blood, sweat, etc.

Example: You want more passion with your lover. Including herbs such as ginger, cardamom, and juniper berries in food recipes will help to intensify the sexual attraction.

Juniper Berries

Personally, I’m not a big fan of putting anything inedible in food/drink. This is especially so for enemy work which causes the target to breed living insects or animals internally in the body. The work is hardcore and cruel, so please avoid that. I’m not even going to write down on how to do.

Crossing or reversing is usually sufficient to get back at someone. Worse come to worse, there are death spells to deal with the enemy but save that for people like dangerous outlaws. There is no need to go to such extend, torturing another with living things inside the body. It is unjustifiable.

Tricks are easy to do, and they are equally effective as burning candles. Sometimes a single application is not enough. Then keep doing until you see some results. If not, incorporate more comprehensive work like candles or get a personal reading to gain more information.

Listen to Your Soul

Listen to Your Soul

January 5, 2022

Andean Condor flying in the Colca Canyon Arequipa Peru

In this blog post, I will share a little of how my soul found its way home.

Whenever we feel an unexplainable intense gravitation pull towards a different cultural environment, it is our soul longing to relive some of its pleasant experiences in our past lives. It keeps wanting to trace its footsteps back to familiarity. Bear in mind the keyword is unexplainable because nowadays, many people idolise other cultures due to pop stars or whatever trending influences.

This does not happen to everyone naturally. People with younger souls tend not to have enough incarnations in a similar cultural background to leave a strong impression on their souls. But for those with many incarnations on earth, their souls are always in search of their roots.

If the soul is trying to tell you something, take a moment to listen carefully, and reflect upon it. Doing so establishes a connection to our spirit, which gives way to uncovering insights regarding our authenticities which in turn elevate us spiritually. This is, in fact, the first guiding principle in my article Spirituality, The World of Spirits.

I hope my short story below on how my soul guided me to its origins will help others gain a broader perspective so they too can learn to retrieve their past.

In my mid-twenties, I found myself obsessed with Taiwanese indigenous singers, especially those with beautiful voices. Therefore, the immediate thing I did on my first trip to Taiwan was to visit its Aboriginal cultural heritage site, an itinerary that I enthusiastically anticipated. However, when I was there, observing all the artifacts and structures, it felt like home but not quite. I could even feel a sense of letdown, which at that point, I did not understand why.

Until many years later, during an overseas tour, I stumbled across a public performance of a Native South American musician group. Their music was breathtaking, and most importantly, I felt my soul danced alive so much so that I turned teary. Needless to say, I bought all their CDs. But still, I did not come to the realisation of what exactly was happening. My only thought was that either I was eccentric or hippie.

It was only after a few years into my spiritual practice that I gradually began to link everything up. I started searching for Native South American songs to listen to again until I finally found the correct indigenous language (Quechua) that my soul resonated with. The more I tuned in to the music, the higher the consciousness grew, and the more I knew who I was in the past, sort of similar to meditation which I will touch on later.

I was able to comprehend that I had lived several past lives as a shaman in the Andes region. This is why I am an inbred shaman and have the same claircognizance ability as most shamans do have. Of course, not all my incarnations were shamans. I was also once a Victorian woman. But perhaps, I gained the most profound spiritual wisdom and enlightenment during those incarnations as a shaman that the experiences imprinted on my soul deeply.

Goat in the Central Andes

And actually, I discovered my shamanic ability quite by accident. I must explain that most Quechua tunes are shamanic in nature with all the rhythmic drumming, high-pitched quena (flute) sounds, and whistles to imitate animal calls.

There was once I kept playing them aloud for long hours and days while lighting blessing candles for myself, and as a result of the music and partly due to my high spiritual vibration, it had drawn two spirits to me. It was purely unintentional since I did not call for them.

Both were from the South American region. One was Yara, a water nymph, who paid a visit in my dream. The other was the spirit of a Native chief whom I had a fast glimpse in the mirror, and he disappeared. It is not a lot of times a human is able to come into range with the frequencies of these spirits, and hence, it makes them very curious when it does. Usually, they just would like to drop by and say hi.

When shamanic music is played, the sacred sounds interconnect the spirit of the plant (wooden drum), the spirit of the animal (their calls), the soul of another (musician), and our soul, embodying the splendour of Mother Nature Spirit and Native Spirit, creating a pathway to the spirit world.

Therefore, meditation is not the only method you can use to gain spiritual enlightenment. There are plenty of others, so find one that suits you. I do not meditate at all, ever. A lot of people do not know what they are meditating for, and that, to me, is a complete waste of time.

True story. There is someone I know of, who meditates, and at the same time, is a dishonorable person who lies. Now, if we cannot go inwards and reflect our treatment towards another soul while meditating, what is the point of doing?

Andean flutes

However, I must say, not all shamanic music is made equal. I mean no offense to some of the YouTube content creators, but many of the videos, especially those with high viewerships, rarely make the mark.

I am neither a musician nor a trained shaman (at least not in this lifetime), but I can certainly recognise spiritual music when I hear one. Most of them fall short due to incorrect drumming rhythm (too fast/slow), and volume of the drum beats (too soft), and pitch of the flute sounds (not sharp enough). If you would like to use Native American shamanic music to aid you in your spiritual quest, I would recommend using those created traditionally by the Natives themselves.

And if you know me personally, I had stopped listening to pop or any other music genres many years ago. Quechua music is the only one I listen to daily, and it is always that same eight to ten music/songs on a rotational basis. This is what my soul loves, and so I keep it happy this way. It is like a kid who wants his candy.

My soul is right where it belongs.

What really happens when your spiritual vibration is high?

What really happens when your spiritual vibration is high?

January 2, 2022

I feel this is going to be the most important article I will ever write since the sole purpose of my existence is to disseminate the below message to all. 

First, let me correct one big misconception. Many times, whenever I mention to someone that I am highly spiritual, he/she will think that I am susceptible to ghostly encounters. This is so wrong. I am very close to the pure spirits in terms of frequency rather than spirits of the dead, which is partly the reason I do not work with ancestors in my spiritual practice.

Now think, if a person is low vibrational living, is also low vibrational dead. The soul does not turn evolved by dying, just so you know. Especially when nowadays most people are obsessed over material riches, but their souls remain poor. They waste one incarnation after another without learning the life lessons that allow expansion of consciousness and spiritual growth.

In case you have missed out, I have a prior article Spirituality, The World of Spirits on the guiding principles on raising our spiritual vibrations. Please have a read too. It typically takes many incarnations for our souls to finally reach a certain level of spiritual vibration whereby we do not have to incarnate anymore.

If I were to provide an analogy, it is like a video game. We either fail or proceed to the next level until the game is eventually over. Trials and tribulations are predestined events along our soul’s journey to give us a chance to propel upwards. They are like the power-ups.

It is a long process. Unlike Buddha, who adopted an ascetic lifestyle and experienced intentional sufferings in order to gain enlightenment, the huge majority of us are going to take the organic route.

Therefore, if we understand all these, it should dawn on us that it is meaningless to keep comparing ourselves with others and be envious of their successes and material possessions. All these are short-lived. Our stories will change again in the next life, better or worse. The only permanence is the soul’s experiences.

But let me get back to the main focus of this article. When we vibrate at a very high spiritual frequency that is within the range of pure spirits, we appear on their radar. This means we gain the attention of angels, ascended masters, spirit guides, and yes demons, rather easily.

Ever since I started walking a spiritual path, I could not watch any horror movies about evil and demons, such as The Conjuring and The Exorcist. It is the same for reading such books. The moment I did that, it was like a catalyst. I became a target on the evil entities’ radar, and they would come and attempt to harm me.

Years ago, a few days after I had finished reading a book on exorcism, a demon came and tried to cause a freak accident in the car I was driving by making the gearbox malfunction. It was later driven off by Archangel Michael, and since then, I stopped engaging in such activities.

Until last year, with the pandemic, I was really bored and so decided to watch a horror movie. I was watching it on my iPhone when suddenly the phone grew hotter and hotter and eventually went dead. I thought it was going to explode. I could not charge it up either and had to buy a new phone.

Fine. I am shunning all these horror books and movies for good. In case you are curious, the movie is Doctor Sleep.

This leads me to my next point. Occasionally, angels and spirit guides will request us to help. Yes, you read it right. And no, it is not to help them. It is to help save other human beings from massive spiritual attacks, just like the spree of assaults on children that happened here (Singapore) last July. Sadly, some children had died as a result.

You have to know that the spirits cannot intervene until a mortal being ask them so. The remote thought of nobody else recognizing those were spiritual attacks, or even did but not rendering aid or incapable of doing so, is seriously worrying. I’m talking about an entire country’s population here. If you are wondering, the attacks ceased after a plea to August Queen of Heaven was made.

I am very certain there are other such attacks elsewhere, and unfortunately, I am still in a human form, bounded by space and time, and could only cover the local grounds. There are plenty of high vibrational souls elsewhere who are meant to assist humanity, and the spirits ask that you awaken to your mission.

Even if you are not, anyone who is reading this article, I ask that you help to share it around, so that it can (1) reach the right people and (2) teach everyone how to raise their spiritual frequencies in order to reduce such tragedies. Because then, we will be more equipped to discern good and evil.

It is up to you whether you want to do it, but I just want to tell everyone is that the spirits see and record all our choices.

Lastly, if you are wondering what happens next when a high vibrational person dies, the soul can choose either to reincarnate and go over the same thing again (embarks on a spiritual journey, ascends and awakens at a certain timing, spreads the awareness, and performs the mission) or to become someone’s spirit guide.

(Taking a mental note to choose the latter. That sounds easier lol.)

Edited: The spiritual attacks in Singapore were in July not September. The spiritual enemy’s targets were young girls and teenager boys.

Rootwork for Beginners

Rootwork for Beginners

January 1, 2022

For those who have never done rootwork (Hoodoo) or any type of spiritual work before, wish to get started, but do not have a mentor, this can be a little daunting. Therefore, it’s best to take small steps at first.

I’d suggest getting:

  •  a few condition oils in the areas that you intend to manifest changes
  • white or coloured candles
  • a few appropriate herbs to dress

OR

  • fixed candles that are already dressed with oils and appropriate herbs

If money is not an issue, I’d also recommend buying some protection and cleansing products as well because there is a possibility the work may attract some stray spirits.

Although there is usually no cause for alarm as most of them are harmless (helpful even), but a few can be hostile. Still, remember, there is no reason to fear them. Always stand in your spiritual power.

Protection Candle

Beginners typically do not have any natural spiritual protection (spirit guides/allies) at the initial stage. Hence, the usage of protection products will shield you from any potential spiritual and physical harm. When you advance further down the spiritual path, your guides will start coming around.

Cleansing products such as Chinese Wash, Uncrossing, and Van Van come in handy too. They keep the energies clean, which helps in improving our overall luck. Anytime we are feeling down on luck, it simply calls for a good spiritual cleanse of our space and ourselves.

As for an altar, there is no requirement for one. You just need an area to light the candles, preferably in private, as this will allow you to focus and pray the intentions in peace.

This is important. Like I have mentioned in an earlier post, our energy makes up a portion of the work. Otherwise, you can pretty much do the spells anywhere. I used to do mine on the floor in the beginning, and they worked fine.

Also, try to break down the petition into simpler requests. For example, ask for a hundred dollars to manifest instead of wealth and riches. It will be more likely to happen, and that way, you will not feel discouraged as a beginner.

It is not necessary to call upon any spirits as the oils and herbs contain spiritual elements in them. That (calling spirits) can take place much later when you gain more experience and confidence.

After you have witnessed some success in your work, feeling convinced this is not a sheer bunk, then you can determine whether you want to continue on with this spiritual practice and path. From there, you can advance to other types of work such as laying tricks, mojo bags, moving candle spells, specific spirits, etc.

Now, all these suggestions are for those who are interested in learning rootwork. However, if you have a pressing problem to resolve, and especially so for life and death matters, it is better to hire a spiritual doctor to do the work on your behalf.

A professional would already have the spiritual skills and tools at hand and know which spirits to approach for help, making it easier to obtain a favourable outcome than newbies.

However, please do not fall prey to scammers who guarantee a 100% success rate. There is no such thing. Anyone who tells you that is lying. No human can speak for the spirits.

I will never ever promise my clients that. What I pledge is using my very best spiritual abilities to gain the desired results, if not alleviation or headway. I will also be checking in with my spirits for their guidance every now and then.

On the other hand, if the issue does not require immediate attention, and you would like to try and fix it on your own, then by all means, get whatever essential spiritual products and tools for the work to be performed.

There are no strict rules on what you can or cannot do. If you have an enemy to be dealt with, and it’s for a justifiable reason, go ahead and perform the dark work (Crossing). You are entitled to justice.

After that, cleanse yourself with a hyssop bath and pray the entire Psalm 51. If you are unsure if it is ok to send a curse, consult a spiritual doctor or reader.

Hyssop Bath Crystals

Some people do have a talent for rootwork, particularly those who are inherently spiritually aware. More likely, they will be able to pick up Hoodoo effortlessly.

Even if you are lacking in that department, it does not matter. Keep practicing and following the guidelines I had written on how to increase spiritual vibration in the article Spirituality, The World of Spirits.

Do understand my teachings will always incorporate the true essence of spirituality as the underlying aim. If one is solely seeking tangible benefits from the spirits through rootwork without cultivating the inner and outer qualities that make all our spiritual connections (with self, impure, pure, divine) flourish, there is a limit to how far he or she can expand the consciousness.

That means a person does not simply become highly spiritual just by practicing thirty years of Hoodoo or knowing the strongest Witchcraft spells.

If the motivations are strictly earthbound, that’s where the level of spirituality stays too. In the next article, I will write about what happens when our spiritual frequencies raise.

Signs from Spirit

Signs from Spirit

December 29, 2021

“Is this a sign?”

I get this question a lot from beginners in spiritual work, and I hope I’ll be able to explain this topic well. It may not be that straightforward since certain signs are rather personal, so you will have to exercise your own judgement as well. Otherwise, if you are still unsure, please get a personal reading from a reputable reader to find out more.

So, what’s the definition of a sign? In the context of spirituality, a sign is simply a message from the spirit world.

The types of signs

  • Acknowledgement

After a rootwork spell is performed, we may sometimes receive one or several signs of this nature within 1 to 2 weeks. There are other practitioners who may suggest a longer timeframe, but in my personal experiences, I seldom have such signs happening beyond a week.

When we do get one, this signifies our request is heard and acknowledged by the spirits. It is a good thing, although it does not necessarily mean the results will manifest. But at least we know the spell has managed to reach the other side, and the spirits are working on the task. That—to me, is already half the battle won.

This type of sign is often brief and completely random. If the work involves a specific spirit, we will get the signs associated with him or her.

Examples of a sign:

Seeing a car decal with Archangel Michael’s image after petitioning the archangel

Seeing a pile of messy knotted rope after calling upon Our Lady Undoer of Knots
(Yes—this happened to me the moment I stepped out of my house after praying to her)

Dreaming of an affectionate target after doing a love spell

Being told a distinct detail of the spiritual work by someone who has no knowledge of it
(I once laid a spiritual trick on a red pen and placed it on my target’s table at my workplace when nobody was around. A few days later, I went over to my sister’s house, and my six-year-old niece walked up to me, pointed to the table, and told me that her mommy had placed a pen there. I asked her what color that was. She said red. Speaking of random.)

Children and animals are common messengers because they are easier to “manipulate”, so to speak. There are many other signs that I cannot possibly list all. The spirits can choose varied means to express a message, but you get the drift.

  • Outcome

Sometimes, a sign pops up later to convey the result of the spiritual work that we have done, and this is more commonly for failures. Because, if the work is going to be successful, we would already have seen the progress in reality, and there is no need for spirits to send us a sign to tell us that.

  • Omen

People with higher spiritual vibrations tend to get this a lot. An omen is unconnected to any of the spiritual work. It is a message from the spirits telling us about some impending event. It can be personal or universally related. I normally receive this kind of message in my dreams.

  • Guidance

This can come in numerous forms. A very popular one is angel number. The spirits will typically show us a number repeatedly to guide us on the things we should focus on at the moment. Once we have achieved a milestone as per their advice, they may change to another number. Angel numbers act like mini signposts on our spiritual journey.

As for what exactly the spirits want us to do, the clues lie in the numbers. It will also depend on our current life situation. There was a period of time I kept seeing the number 34 while I was writing a couple of children’s books.

The number 3 represents creativity, and 4 represents practicality, telling me to continue bringing my creative writing to fruition. When I was finally done writing the books, I stopped seeing that number. In fact, the number 7 (3+4) kept appearing for a short period of time thereafter, signifying my accomplishment.

What is not considered a sign?

Many beginners tend to obsess over signs so as to validate their work that they start overthinking and believing regular incidents are messages from the spirits.

Examples of not a sign:

Listening to happy love songs being played continuously on the radio after performing a break-up spell to remove a third party. If this is a sign, for goodness sake, then it is a rather negative one in this situation.

Seeing an ad for Saint Joseph’s chaplet appearing on some online platform after googling his prayers and petitioning him. Nope, this is just Google using your prior search data, and you need to clear the cache (erm, does it help?).

If you are uncertain, just remember signs are both random and specific. Lastly, even if you do not get a sign after a spell, there is no need to despair. I’ve had full manifestations without seeing any sign and also failures with seemingly positive ones. At the end of the day, it’s all up to the spirits.

Spirituality, The World of Spirits

Spirituality, The World of Spirits

December 28, 2021

“What’s spirituality, exactly? Is it got to do with the mind?” a friend once asked me.

My reply was quick. “What do you mean? Of course it’s got to do with the spirits,” I said with a deep furrow forming on my forehead.

At that moment, I realised what seemed pretty obvious to me was not so apparent to others, and everyone had their own set of opinions on what spirituality was all about. Now, if you are unconvinced by my answer, take a look at the word, and you’ll see the first six letters have already spelled it out.

Spirituality is the overarching connection between spiritual beings, encompassing the recognition of our human souls (spiritual selves) and otherworldly realms. When we strengthen the relationships, the more spiritual we evolve, and to do so, we have to nurture ALL these connections:

Self and Other Human Souls – The Impure Spirit

Humans are spiritual beings with a temporary physical form attached to material qualities. We come from the spirit world when we are born and return when our time on earth has ended. The majority of us do not recall the origins of our souls.

Connection to spiritual self is a continuous inward reflection: examining the kind of person we truly are, discovering a sense of meaning in our soul’s journey, and learning the current life lessons put in our way while exhibiting integrity, compassion, and resolute.

Connection to other human souls is a continuous outward contribution: tending to the needs of others around us and treating everyone fair and just while discerning good and evil.

Angels, Ascended Masters, Higher Beings/Guides – The Pure Spirit

I find there are many people choosing to neglect this class of spiritual beings. Another friend even reminded me angels are merely God’s servants, and I will be better fulfilled through connecting to God alone. Then, there are also others who will only attempt to reach out to these spirits when in need of help in their mortal issues.

But for those who do make a sincere effort to build a relationship with some of these spirits, I’m sure, just like me, you will find the experiences to be rather enlightening. If I were to write down all of them, it is going to be a long list, and I don’t even know where to begin with.

However, I will always remember how they helped to heal a loved one from a serious illness, revealed someone’s deceit to me, showed me I have the gift for writing, and most importantly, how they came to support me during my spiritual ascension.

This happened roughly a year and a half ago. At that point, I knew I was about to undergo my final ascension (for this life), but I never had the slightest idea where it was leading me to. It was not an easy period as I faced multiple life-changing situations all at once. In the physical realm, I was pretty much alone without anyone to turn to, but not on the other side. I could sense a lot of spirit guides swarming around me on a daily basis.

I was directed one step at a time. And up until March this year, I thought I was going to become a children’s author. But no, that was just part of the training. Finally, a couple of months later, I came to the epiphany, and the spirits confirmed this was not a dream.

Well, it looks like I have passed all the tests, and now I am ready to take on the role of a spiritual messenger, spreading spiritual awareness, teaching others to use spirituality to enhance their lives, and using my spiritual abilities to assist those in need.

God – The Divine Spirit

Establishing the connections that I have mentioned above helps us in raising our spiritual vibration. When that happens, we get closer to God, with that being the eventual goal. We’ll learn to cherish and love all His Creations.

The spiritual journey is often a very lonely one (in material sense). Along the way, there is a possibility of us forsaking several earthy desires/attachments, and if we are lucky, we may be able to catch a glimpse or two of our soul’s previous stories.

If my blog post resonates with you, then perhaps you are meant to find and walk a spiritual path too. In that case, I wish you great success and joy.

The Basics of Candle Magic

The Basics of Candle Magic

December 23, 2021

Candles are an integral part of any spiritual or religious practice.  When lighted, the candle flame pierces the veil that separates the material and spirit worlds, carrying our messages, intentions, and prayers to the other end.

Types of candles commonly used for spiritual work

These free-standing candles are really convenient and relatively cheaper than the others. However, I’ve seen some shops selling them at exorbitant prices while claiming they were “charged” candles. I’m pretty sure they mean overcharged. Depending on the sizes, chimes and tapers typically burn down within two to five hours.

The visual symbolism in these candles enhances the focus, and they are usually meant for more elaborate work. For example, human figurine candles can be used in moving love spells to bring someone closer or breakup spells to move someone away. Such candles tend to burn messy due to their irregular shapes and leave behind piles of wax (which can be used for divination).

Red female figurine candles

Traditionally, they are vigil or novena lights meant to burn continuously for several days. The candles are already blessed and dressed with oils and herbs, so you just have to place the petition/picture/personal concern beneath the candle, pray your intention, and light it.

I personally prefer to use a shorter glass candle like the ones I’m selling in my shop because a jar candle is so much easier to relight (when I have to snuff it out when leaving it unattended) or tend to the flame.

Colour symbolism

  • Green: money, finances, attraction, gambling luck, abundance, prosperous business, job
  • Red: passion, strength, sexuality
  • Pink: romance, love, friendship
  • Orange: opening the roads to new opportunities, promote changes
  • Blue: healing, peace, psychic visions, protection
  • Yellow: success, happiness, devotion, employment
  • Brown: court case, finding things
  • Purple: mastery, influence, control, power, spiritual abilities
  • Black: curse, banish, illness
  • White: blessing, purification, spirituality

In fact, all kinds of spiritual work can be performed using white candles. The colours are meant to add an extra layer of representation. It is somewhat like putting a love letter into a pink rose-scented envelope or sending a formal document in a Kraft paper envelope, when in fact, a plain white envelope will do.

Coloured chime candles

How to prepare a free-standing candle for use

  • Inscribe the name/date of birth/petition/sigil/symbol
  • Poke a hole underneath and insert a strand of hair or some other personal concerns
  • Dress with appropriate oils, upwards to attract and downwards to repel
  • Roll in appropriate herbs, or lightly sprinkle some sachet powder on it

Above are just some suggested methods. There are a few others, so find one that is suitable for the type of candle and the work to be performed.

Signs and Meanings

There are many online articles on the topic of candle flame divination. Some suggest a flickering flame indicates a spirit presence. Others say a popping candle represents someone sending ill will. However, I do not find these interpretations to be entirely true.

Honestly, I’d not pay too much attention to how the flame behaves, except when it burns too low or sooty. A candle flame that burns bright and high is generally better than a dim one. It shows the work is stronger. And soot indicates resistances. If the flame goes out repeatedly or simply will not light up, the spirits do not want you to continue the work anymore. You may have to ask them why.

The only time you need to take special heed is when it behaves erratically. Otherwise, mostly, it is going to burn like a normal candle. What do I mean by that? I can only quote one example because this only happened to me once throughout my years of burning candles for spiritual work.

It was during my first time calling upon Archangel Raphael when a section of his green chime candle started peeling downwards, followed by another next to it, and the next, until it finished circling the whole candle, resembling a flower dropping its petal one by one.

When the candle eventually burned down, its wax remains looked exactly like a fish, complete with its eye. That—was a sign from Archangel Raphael, who is often depicted holding a fish, a symbol of his healing of Tobit with the fish’s gall in the scriptural story.

Therefore, there may be times when signs show up in the wax remains. Do make the observations, but do not read too much into it. Signs are always good as they signify the requests are heard by the spirits. However, it does not necessarily mean the work will manifest. On the flip side, even if you don’t get any signs, it does not mean the spell will fail.

A simple spell to attract a sweet new love

Get a white chime candle and use a rose thorn from a white rose to carve the words “may all my love come to me” on it. Then dress it with come to me oil, damiana, jasmine flowers, catnip, cubeb berries, lemon balm, and lovage. Pluck out the rose petals and scatter them around the base of the candle.

Light the candle and keep your gaze on it until it burns down completely, all the while visualising your new love coming to you full of sweetness and affection. Keep the remaining wax in a safe place. Do this spell every Friday until the person appears.

Lastly, please observe fire safety when burning candles. Always place them on a heat-resistance surface and never leave them unattended.

Hope you find the information useful.
