CORD BINDING SPELL This spell is adapted from one by DJ Conway in the 1996 Llewellyn Magickal Almanac. It is intended to be used to prevent someone from causing you harm, and I have also used it to batten down anger (my own and another's). In order to work properly it requires full concentration. Take a short length of black thread. Tie a knot in one end, saying: 'One to seek him/her/it.' (choose whichever pronoun is appropriate) Tie a knot in the middle, saying: 'One to find him/her/it,' Tie a knot in the other end, saying: 'One to bring him/her/it,' Tie the two ends together, saying: 'One to bind him/her/it.' Bury the knotted thread far away from your property or drop it on a road or waste ground far from where you live. And that's right, the rhyme is adapted straight out of Tolkien! However, I do NOT recommend that you finish off this spell with 'In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie'!
