Hello from Canada

[Hanami]

Hi!

I've been a lurker of this forum for many years. I finally decided to create an account. It only took me about 14 years to do it. I have purchased from LM once years back. I've done other practices but actually forgot about Hoodoo for years and now I'm back.

So most of the past info I've been able to find by searching on here.

But I have some questions about root work or vigils and I see some similar topics but it's not quite exactly the same. I'm unsure where to find the information.

One is my other half is on a temper tantrum. He sometimes is influenced by my no good BIL who constantly talks crap about me behind my back even though I have been nice in the past. I'm just civil towards him now because I can't waste my energy on him. I just want to break the "friendship" between brothers. It's a very toxic one and my other half knows it. He's just pushed to spend time with his brother because their mother thinks a broken family is no good. I understand that toxic family members are no good for health and your family is whom you make it to be with friends. I don't always think blood members are always the best. If it wasn't for blood, they would not really be friends. So I'd like to separate them if possible and shut him up. But my other half needs to stand up for me too! I've never done anything to the brother, but be nice and he trashes me a lot. I know. I've seen the text as he refers me as the biyatch.

The other one is, whenever he fights with me, he returns to his parents and stays with them. He's nearing 40 and his parents have spoken to him late last year about fully moving out. But they also enable this behaviour by allowing him to do so. I know he doesn't tell them the truth about what happens. This happens on a yearly basis where we don't talk for weeks. How can I get his parents to stop allowing this? So he can deal with arguments with me like an adult

Also with addictions. In the past he used to drink a lot and do coke. The coke stopped. The drinking is minimal, but when I'm out of town (which is quite often) he tries to see old acquaintances and I won't say friends because these people make no effort to talk him or invite him. He is the one who asks to get invited. And when I'm away, if it's not a weekend they he has off, the weekday he'll just hang out with his good for nothing brother. It's not that I don't want him to have friends. Of course I do. I just want him to choose people who are genuine. He just chooses the old bar friends who don't care for him, you know the nostalgia stuff. But when he is out drinking with these people or his brother. He can't control how much he drinks. He'll lie to me over the phone to say he's had 3-4 but I know it's a lie. He's mean to me and hangs up on me and won't answer my calls until the next day. When I talk to him about it, he doesn't remember. I've called him an alcoholic in the past.

So I'm sorry, I could not find the exact help under previous questions. They are similar.

Thank you.

Hanami,

Welcome to the forum and thank you for creating an account. Lurking is fine, but it's a lot more fun participating in my opinion. As for your situation there are several things you can do. Please read up on them and let us know if you have any questions afterwards.

You could do a freezer spell and include some alum to freeze the BIL out and shut him up.

Cast Off Evil can be used for addictions. However, the individual should want to change their habits. Counseling and therapy should be on the table as well.

We usually give a quick run down of rules and helpful links here. You may already be familiar with some of these but just to be on the safe side, I'll post them anyway.

These are links to general information on hoodoo to give you a jumping off point:

Here is some info on how the forums are set up. It is divided into four major parts:

1) News and Announcements about the Lucky Mojo Curio Company and this site.

2) Lucky Mojo Spiritual Supplies and how to use them, listed in threads by product type and product title.

3) Life Conditions and Situations, with recommended Lucky Mojo products, spells, and advice.

4) The Online Hoodoo Community, including sites, events, and outreach sponsored by Lucky Mojo.

When you post, it helps your moderators, who are recompensed volunteers, if you post in the area of the board that is best suited to the archival of your question or comment. That way moderators will not have to move your post or merge it into ongoing threads.

If you can't find a post you made, it may have been moved or merged. Go to your profile by clicking on your name and "search recent posts" -- you will find it.

Within each board section there are STICKY threads -- ones that always stay "stuck" to the top. These are popular discussion-threads that you can read and add to if your questions or comments fall into one of these oft-broached topics. If you don't see a "sticky" that relates to your question, feel free to start a new thread in the relevant section.

We do have a few "thou shalt not" rules here, and they can be found in the Forum Rules link at the top of each page.

Most important for newbies are these five common errors to avoid:

1) Please do not come here asking for our formulas for conjure oils or for instructions on how to use spiritual supplies that you bought at a grocery store or at a competitor of ours; this is the Lucky Mojo Forum and is financially supported by the Lucky Mojo Curio Co.

2) Please do not post illegal copies of material from other web sites or from books.

3) Please do not post put-downs of any group of people based on their religion, race, or national origin, including derogatory comments about religions to which you may have previously been an adherent or comments in which you seek to falsely conflate any religion with the practice of evil sorcery.

4) Please do not start new topics; we have thousands of topic-threads already in place.

5) Please do not quote people by using the copy-paste function; it wastes space.

Thank you Terra!

Yes, it's more fun than lurking. I'm still a little shy on asking for help. I worry about posting questions in the wrong thread

Thank you for pointing out some spells to do. I have some questions about the freezer spell. Does it have to go in a bottle? Can it be in a freezer bag to shut up my BIL? I'm just worried that I if I place a bottle in the freezer, other family members who drop by and use my freezer will find it.

Also with the stop gossip and slandering, I saw something that Conjureman Ali wrote, which I like the idea but it looks like a bottle one which I can hide as long as it doesn't go in the freezer. I also see there's a honey jar stop gossip. I understand that it's to sweeten the person up to stop the gossip and slandering. My gut instinct tells me My BIL will never sweeten up towards me. He's just a miserable loser and my other half has said it himself, yet he goes to hang out with him when I'm not around. Is there a way to break them up too? Better that way so they don't spend time with each other. I know my BIL held a grudge over my FIL and he didn't talk to his father in over a year. So I just need to keep them apart. I also need my other half to open his eyes to see, how these people including his brother is no good. I'm unsure if compelling is a good idea as well?

If I can break them apart that's great. I'm wondering I can do compelling to get my other half to leave the parents for good. When I'm not home, he stays with them. Or when he picks a fight and disappears on me he goes the same thing. The parents want him out for good, but they enable this behaviour as well. So king Solomon?

Also, can I cut and clear for my other half? Not for myself, but some reason when he fights with me, he tries to get the attention of an ex whom I despise (I won't get into it, someone is hotfooting vigil for me) but he also needs to stop reaching out to her.

I've had several readings done. It's all the same.

Also can you point me out to the right sub topics so I can ask accordingly?

Thank you!

Hanami,

I like to use aluminum foil for freezer spells. It has that reflecting power almost like a mirror to keep all the messes that person is doing to themselves. Plus, usually no one dares to open up a foil packet in the freezer. If you have a dog you could write "chicken livers" and say they are dog treats.

There is also a packet you can wear made out of slippery elm. The bark gets very slippery when wet and it is said it lets you slide past gossips with out any harm. Their words won't stick to you.

slippery-elm-bark-questions-and-answers-t24674.html

I wouldn't do a cut and clear on him even if it is for the ex. I would stick to Hot Foot if possible.

You have a lot of stuff going on. I would try to focus on the main things first and get those spells going for a few weeks before starting new ones. It's like juggling, you don't want to start off with 10 different things at once.

Best of luck!
