E.A. <strong>Koetting</strong>/<strong>Baron</strong> <strong>DePrince</strong><br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Spider</strong> <strong>and</strong> the <strong>Green</strong> <strong>Butterfly</strong><br />
Unwrap the paper charm with the victim's name on<br />
it <strong>and</strong> the anise seeds within, <strong>and</strong> place the seeds in the<br />
mortar bowl. <strong>The</strong> paper can also be burned, lit on the red<br />
c<strong>and</strong>le at the top of the Veve, <strong>and</strong> the ashes mixed into the<br />
mortar.<br />
Allow the c<strong>and</strong>les to burn themselves out as they<br />
will, the essence of Diablesse growing as they burn, the<br />
power of the enchantment thickening in the Temple every<br />
moment that the c<strong>and</strong>les remain afire.<br />
Once the c<strong>and</strong>les have extinguished themselves,<br />
usually the following day, place the Veve, the dove's<br />
carcass, <strong>and</strong> three coins in a brown paper bag. If you live<br />
near the woods, walk past six trees, <strong>and</strong> leave the bag at the<br />
base of the seventh tree that you find. If you live in the<br />
city, walk straight past six city blocks or corners, <strong>and</strong> leave<br />
the bag at the seventh corner. Once the bag is placed,<br />
return to your temple, not looking back at the bag nor<br />
concerning yourself with what happens to it. <strong>The</strong> bag is a<br />
gift <strong>and</strong> a sacrifice to Diablesse, <strong>and</strong> she will do with it as<br />
she pleases.<br />
Returning to your altar, take the mortar containing<br />
ashes, anise seeds, <strong>and</strong> either menstrual blood or<br />
ejaculatory fluids which should be dried by this time, <strong>and</strong><br />
grind them together with a pestle, creating a fine powder of<br />
the substances. Once you have this powder, fold it into a<br />
piece of red paper until you are ready to use it.<br />
This powder as well must be blown into the face of<br />
your victim, although it can be inhaled through sprinkling it<br />
on top of flowers that he or she will smell as well.<br />
Sexual obsession will follow in the same day, all of<br />
his or her thoughts turning to possessing you sexually.<br />
Remember at all times that this enchantment will not create<br />
love, but lust. Diablesse does not favor love, but incites<br />
violent desire.<br />
Again, you are admonished against actually using<br />
this enchantment, as it will create in your victim a sexual<br />
urge that can never be tamed or calmed, <strong>and</strong> once Diablesse<br />
takes hold of her victim, she will never release until<br />
through sex <strong>and</strong> obsession, the victim's life is taken. Of all<br />
the Loa, Diablesse is perhaps the most wicked.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Mambo must observe, however, that the evil<br />
Loa do indeed feed off of the essence of blood, <strong>and</strong> that the<br />
menstrual blood is extraordinarily potent. For this reason,<br />
calling down Loa during the menstrual period is to be<br />
avoided at all costs, unless working with Lilithian Loas,<br />
Diablessa included.<br />
Sprinkling Powders -<br />
Most of the powders used in Vodoun, Voodoo, <strong>and</strong><br />
Hoodoo are "sprinkling powders" rather than "blowing<br />
powders." <strong>The</strong>se are sprinkled on the bed of the victim, in<br />
his or her undergarments, in a home for protection, at the<br />
doorstep of an enemy, or upon food that will be eaten by<br />
the recipient of your Magick.<br />
Many such powders are sold in botanicas <strong>and</strong> occult<br />
supply shops, <strong>and</strong> although this may seem to be an easy<br />
way to get your h<strong>and</strong>s on the "real thing," it is indeed, not.<br />
Most of these powders contain more talcum than anything<br />
else, <strong>and</strong> are simply dressed up with cayenne, chili pepper,<br />
or fragrant incense powders, while some of these may be<br />
manufactured <strong>and</strong> consecrated by the shop owner, unless he<br />
or she has personally created the powder for you <strong>and</strong> your<br />
particular desires, it is a generic powder that will rely more<br />
on your belief in it than in its own Magickal properties,<br />
both inherent <strong>and</strong> imbued. Further, most powders found in<br />
such stores are the creations of Hoodoo, <strong>and</strong> have nothing<br />
whatsoever to do with Haitian Vodoun, nor have they been<br />
created under the guidance of the spirits <strong>and</strong> the Loa, but<br />
have simply been thrown together from whatever sources
