Scattering herbs and powders is a common way of invoking the influence of the herbs to achieve your magical intent. They are dusted around places of business to improve sales, scattered in bedrooms to light the spark of love, and sprinkled over people to bless or protect them. Powders are particularly common in traditional American folk magic and hoodoo where there are hundreds of them in common use. They are a relatively simple product to use.
Powders, by their nature spread easily, fly on the wind and get all over the place - allowing you to get the magical ingredients within all over the person you intend to affect.
Dressing Letters with Magical Sachet Powders
One of the best ways to hit a person with a magical spell, without them knowing it, is to lace a letter or card with magical powders then mail it to them. Once the intended person touches the letter or card, they are directly affected by the magical powder on their hands.
Sprinkling Powders in a Person's Tracks
One of the oldest and most reliable ways to hit someone - especially with enemy work - is by sprinkling powders in their tracks to afflict them through the feet. In order to do this without detection, mix the powder with equal parts of local dirt to hide its color. When they aren't looking, sprinkle your powder in a line somewhere where they'll walk through it: across the threshold to their house, around the passenger-side door of their car, under their desk at work, etc. Some folks even throw powders onto the tires of a person's car.
There is a proper way to sprinkle powders. Bend at the waist and sprinkle with one hand while taking an odd number of steps backward. Do this while calling out the intended target by name and pray for the intended effect to hit them. Then walk away, don't look back and wait for the spell to hit them.
Magical Powders in Candles and Other Spells
Magical powders have many uses. You can use them to dress candles by dusting a little on your hand and then running your hand over the candle. This works especially well if you oil the candle first with an appropriate condition oil.
For example, you could dress a pink candle with Attraction Oil, then dust it with Attraction Powder and burn it over a photo of the person you recently met and want to draw his attention. (Cell phones are wonderful to get a quick picture.)
Let your creativity in spell work soar with Magical Powders. They are the most misunderstood and yet one of the most powerful and effective ways to hit unsuspecting targets with your spells.
