Apparently my nephew can see spirits too. He claims to see a "Brown Man" coming after him whenever he was at my mom's apartment. In distress she called me up (me somehow being the go-to person for fixing magical problems) to ask what she should do.
I tell her not to bother with a house blessing because the man was after Roo and that she needed to teach him to get rid of the problem. She seemed surprised by this and I dont know why. I gave Melissa the same instructions when her brother was being bullied at school. She taught him to do a spell to 'freeze' bullies and it worked like a charm! - till she moved out and he forgot to refresh it.
I instructed my mom to make him goofer dust! It's an old Voodoo thing that was possibly used to fight other Witches at first, but then became about fighting evil spirits as internal-wars are frowned upon in the Pagan community now.
Goofer (or Gopher's Dus)
Brimstone (sulpher) Cayenne
Salt Black Pepper
Rattlesnake Skin or Rattle
Chief weapon in Hoodoo arsenal. Protects property and can be used to blow bad intentions towards intruders with melitious plans. This dust brings together earth and air elements. Can also be used to dispell evil spirits and intentions.
It boiled down to salt and pepper (cause no one is crazy enough to give a 4 year old cayenne to wave around!) and when Roo tried it, it worked like a charm. The Brown Man has gone away and left him alone. A note, however, that my mother did re-do her housebelssing after all, preventing anymore oogies from sneaking up on Roo while he sleeps.
That's THREE for me and ZERO for the oogie-boogies!
Salutations,
Sesh
