BINDING SOMEONE DANGEROUS (Author Unknown) Best performed on Saturday (Saturn's Day), To bind a criminal / one who intends to do harm, To bring someone to justice Collect your materials, including a poppet you made to represent the person in question. Cast a circle. Light a black candle and burn myrrh incense. Sprinkle the poppet with salt water, saying Blessed be, thou creature made of art. By art made, by art changed. Thou art not clothe (or wax, whatever) But flesh and blood I name thee ___________ (person being bound) Thou art s/he, between the worlds, in all the worlds, So mote it be Hold the poppet and imagine it enmeshed in silver net, binding the person in question. Tie the poppet up firmly with red ribbon, binding all parts of it that could possibly do harm. Charge it, saying, By air and earth, By water and fire, So be you bound, As I desire. By three and nine, Your power I bind. By moon and sun, My will be done. Sky and sea Keep harm from me. Cord go round, Power be bound, Light revealed, Now be sealed. Release the powers and open the circle. Bury the poppet at the time of the waning moon, far from your home, under a heavy rock. Go home and have some juice and do grounding. And clearing meditation.
