Grand Bewitchment

The Grand Bewitchment

The Grand Bewitchment is one of the darkest and most adverse of magical ceremonies. This rite should be saved as a last resort only, and is definately not to be undertaken lightly. This complex ritual should ideally never be used, but it is the example of how to preform complex adverse rituals.

This information is presented for educational purposes only. I do not endorse the preformance of this ritual in any way. I take no responsibilty for what harm may be caused by preforming this rite.

At midnight on a Tuesday before the new moon, tape a triangle around your alter pointing north. Inside this triangle should be your paten pentacle with your chosen modeling material (caly or wax) and your usual Cernunnos paraphernalia. Outside the triangle you will need:
Your incense of wrath and chastisement (burning)
Your chalice of bitter wine (rue or myrrh)
Your wand
Your cord
Your Athame
An unlit candle of bewitchment (red)
Lamps of art
Phial of Sabbat oil
Your Square of Mars
Object links
Baneful hers and graveyard dust
Your Dagydes or exorcised needles of art

Being by performing a meditative numerical progression on the Square of Mars to attune your deep mind. Have altered your deep mind to the correct level, return your square to the alter, and concescrate the floor triangle with your wine and invoke Cernunnos. Once you have brought the Horned One's presence to you then turn to your pestle and mortar.
In them place the herbs of bane and graveyard dust; grind this to a powder and softly chant your intention to yourself rhythmically. "I work to the destruction of (victim's name)!"
Mix the powder with the clay or beeswax and knead it in well while chanting your intention.
Next start to mold your puppet (usually anywhere from five to eight inches long is good) slowly chanting the name of your victim. Model the figure to the best of your ability, you want the victim to be reconisable to YOU. Some witches find it helpful to place a photograph of the victim's face into the puppet's face. Be sure the puppet has the correct sex and concentrating on detailing the parts of the body you intend to focus your attack helps also.
When the puppet is completed to your satisfaction, then insert the nail or hair clippings in the approppriate places. Should you have a liquid link, such as saliva, blood, etc., incorporte it into the base before you being to mold it. Next engrave the vitim's name and "Cabye. Aaaze. Hit. Fel. Meltat." underneath the name with the point of your athame.
Then consecrate the puppet with a little wine, chanting your inteintion while projecting the victim's image onto in your mind's eye: "In the name of Cernunnos, the Horned One Creature of wax (or earth if you are using clay) I name thee (victim's name)! Thou art (victim's name)!"
Take the puppet in your RIGHT hand and take your wand in your LEFT hand and infuse "life" into the image by tracing over it with the victim's name written in witch fire. To complete the identification show the puppet ot the north, west, south, and east, chanting the victim's name at each quarter. When you are finished with that place the puppet in the altar triangle with its head pointing north.
After all that the first part of the ritual has been completed.
Next you will need to take your scarlet candle of bewitchment and rhythmically anoint it in the correct way with Sabbat oil softly chanting a litany of hate and destruction directed at your victim. As you do specifiy the exact affliction you wish to cause and let yourself see the affliction you invoke. Do this for the previously decided number of times, until the message in in your mind clearly.
Once the anoiniting is finished, put the candle at the northermost tip of the alter triangle beyong the puppet's head and light it. Next move to the north of the triangle yourself and while facing south across the alter, cross your ams upon your breast in the traditional "god of death" pose. Chant the words of identification "It is not my hand which does this deed, but that of Cernunnos, the Horned One!"
Feel the Horned God standing behind you. Feel him guide your left hand to the enchanted needles of art (the Dagydes). Feel him burning within you. Once again forcibly mentally project your victim's face onto the image before you. Let the Horned One take a Dagyde in your left hand and hear him chant the dog-Latin words of the medieval grand envoutement through your lips. See the "devil" sparks flit around the needlepoint as moths around a lamp.
Allow the God of Wrath to stab the dagyde into the part of the poppet designated for torment with the words "so mote it be!" To affect the head, or hair loss, stab the pin into the crow of the head; for the stomach or heart stab the central body; for rheumatism in limbs place a dagyde in each extremity, etc.
If the desired effect is wasting away then the traditional way of doing this is transfixing a single dagyde into the heart and slowly dissovling the image in the fire it the poppet is wax, or water if the poppet be clay.
When the immolation is finished, let the candle of bewitchment burn itself out.
