Curse and Hex Poppet
Primary Use
To send negative energy to a target using a Santa Muerte cursing and hexing poppet.
You Will Need
Background
Poppets - sometimes called "Vodou dolls" - are powerful magickal devices that can help you when you need to cast a Santa Muerte magick spell that involves another person. The poppet acts as the symbolic representation of the person you want to influence and gives you a visual focal point for directing the magickal energies you want to deliver.
Poppets come in all shapes and sizes but they're generally crude representations of the human body. Think something like the 3D representation of a human stick figure and you have a basic poppet. You can make poppets out of just about anything you can mold into the shape of a person.
Crafting Your Poppet
If possible, craft this poppet in the light of a black candle.
If using fabric, then cut out two human shaped pieces from a section of fabric, sew the two parts together, and stuff with a soft material like cotton balls or scraps of fabric. Don’t sew all the way shut! You will want an opening on the side of the poppet to complete the steps that follow.
If using black clay, then use the kind that won’t harden when exposed to air. Remember that your clay poppet doesn’t have to look like Michelangelo’s David, just a simple human shape will work.
Next, place into the small red bag the personal items of your target and your negativity activators. If you want to also include in the small red bag one or two of the herbs from the following list, in order to inflict a specific negative energy, then you are free to do so. As you add ingredients into your small red bag, remember that less is more - only a few pinches or drops of each ingredient are necessary to convey the intent you are trying to achieve.
Here is a list of optional herbs you can add into the small red bag in order to inflict a specific kind of negative energy. These optional herbs are to be placed into your poppet whole - DO NOT GRIND.
- Cayenne Pepper - for turning up the heat on your target. May be directed as a physical heat to cause your target fever or pain, a spiritual heat to invade your target's dreams with fire and anger, or as an emotional heat to make your target angry, suspicious, and feeling like the walls are closing in.
- Lemon Verbena - herb for causing strife and turmoil between two people (husband and wife, parent and child, boss and employee, etc.). Create a doll for each person and place the herb in each doll. Store the dolls near each other, perhaps back to back if possible, and each will begin to irritate the other more and more, and the pair will be seen to argue or disagree more and more.
- Mandrake Root - to cause physical pain, sickness, or disease. CAUTION - known to be poisonous, avoid skin contact and store in a secure place.
- Poppy Seeds - for causing mental confusion in your target, the kind of confusion that distracts and causes one to make poor decisions. Black Mustard Seeds have the same effect.
- Tansy - herb for causing nightmares. CAUTION - known to be poisonous, avoid skin contact and store in a secure place.
- Tobacco - for removing energy and vitality, for causing personal stagnation, for causing impotence, for removing power and authority.
- Wormwood - herb for causing an eviction, throwing out, or firing. CAUTION - known to be poisonous, avoid skin contact and store in a secure place.
When the small red bag includes the personal items of your target, plus the negativity activators, plus any optional herbs you decide to include, then shut the small red bag and incorporate into your poppet. Simply slide the red bag into the torso of a cloth poppet and sew the poppet shut, or press and mold the red bag into the torso of a clay poppet.
Breathing Life Into Your Poppet
Once your poppet has been constructed and incorporated with the above mentioned ingredients, then your poppet is ready to come to life. Holding your poppet close, whisper into the side of the poppet’s head the following prayer:
"[TARGET’S FULL NAME], you are this poppet, and this poppet is you.
What I do to this poppet, may you feel it, too.
What I whisper to this poppet, may you think it true.
What I command to this poppet, may you jump to do.
[TARGET’S FULL NAME], you are this poppet, and this poppet is you."
Using Your Poppet
What you decide to do next to your poppet is your decision.
If you want to inflict physical pain to the target, then you can insert pins or needles into the areas of the poppet where you want your target to suffer.
If you want to tie your target’s hands, so they cannot exert control over you or someone else, then you can tightly bind the poppet’s hands / arms.
If you want to keep your target from moving forward, or making progress toward a goal, then you can bind the legs / feet of the poppet together, so they cannot take any steps forward.
If you want to blind your target, so they may not see you or pay attention to you, then you can tie a small blindfold around where the eyes of the poppet would be.
If you want to silence your target, so they may not speak against you, then you can tie a cord or string around where the mouth of the poppet would be.
If you want to overwhelm your target, and inflict a sense of drowning or suffocation, then you can fashion a small noose around the poppet’s neck.
When it comes to inflicting your intent on your target by way of your magick poppet, you are really only limited by your imagination and creativity.
If you simply want to cause general pain and discomfort into the life of your target, then you can push a pin or needle into the heart or head of your poppet as you recite a simple statement of intent over the poppet. You could say, for example;
"Broke and unemployed" - to cause financial distress.
"Alone and unloved" - to cause emotional distress.
"Bruised and broken" - to cause physical distress.
As you insert the needles and recite the type of harm you want to inflict, visualize your victim experiencing the type of harm or discomfort you want to cause. Don't just say the words "broke and unemployed" - actually try to visualize your target standing in the unemployment line looking poor and unkempt. Don't just say "alone and unloved", actually visualize your target being yelled at by their significant other, or crying alone in the fetal position.
Final Thoughts
The poppet will remain linked to your target, and the negative energy you direct to your poppet will remain in force, for as long as the poppet remains whole, but you are free to inflict new negative energy into your poppet whenever you choose. You can hang the poppet from a noose one day, push pins into its heart the next day, bind its hands / arms after that, and so on and so on. You can also send renewed negative energy to your target by taking time to recite cursed prayers or simple statements of negative intent over the poppet.
While you are free to inflict different types of negative energy onto the poppet for as long as you choose, you should only use one curse or hex poppet for one single person.
To send negative energy to a target using a Santa Muerte cursing and hexing poppet.
You Will Need
- Black Fabric and Thread, or Black Clay - to create the form of your curse or hex poppet. If using fabric, then you will also need a soft stuffing material, like cotton balls, or scraps of fabric.
- Small Red Pouch - to form the “heart” of your poppet. Small enough to fit inside the torso of your poppet.
- Personal Items of Target - Hair or toenail clippings work well, but can be difficult to procure. A picture of your target will also work, as will a paper on which you write the personal details of your target, like their name, date of birth, address, and / or phone number. The more personal items or details that you can incorporate into the poppet, the stronger you will make the link between the poppet and your intended target.
- Negativity Activators - two or three things associated with negativity or known for being yucky, like cigarette butts, broken glass, piss, rusty nails, graveyard dirt, etc. These amplify the negative aspects of all other ingredients and help further pile on the pain and discomfort in the life of your target. When you add these negativity activators to your magick, it's the spiritual equivalent of flicking cigarette butts in someone's face or peeing on their property - it's a sign of great disrespect to ensure there is no misunderstanding about the intent you're putting into the magickal work. LESS IS MORE, just a few drops or pinches will do.
