Hey Occulties,

As many of you have no doubt guessed, a great deal of my requests are love-related, and generally related to retrieving a lost loved one. While that's all fine and well, and to be expected, what happens when you realize your ex was/is a terrible human being? 

Now, I'd just like to say that I do not feel this way personally about most of my exes. Sure, they made mistakes (but so did I), and that made it so we just couldn't make things work, but in the case of maybe 2 people in my entire romantic life, those 2 guys were MONSTERS, whereas any one else I might call my ex is probably a pretty good guy, it just didn't work for us. 

So it is that more than one of my readers or clients have realized that their ex is also a complete monster. 😛 And when you've been free of a monster for a short while, you often get angry that you tolerated this person for any length of time, and you feel like getting a little bit of revenge for all of the rotten things this person put you through. No, I'm not saying this person gave you a bad birthday present once, or got drunk at your school reunion and blurted out that you have all of One Direction's albums and play them constantly – I mean this person did something like cleaned out your bank account to buy themselves a new wardrobe, and then ran off with your former best friend, using what was left of your money to take the ex best friend on a whirlwind tour of Europe, or something equally awful (that actually isn't even close to the worst monster-of-an-ex story I've ever heard,) and now that you're through with this jerk…you want your revenge. 

I'm sure many of you have heard of the traditional beef-heart spell to break the heart of someone who has broken yours. This is a wonderful spell, and if you've the mind to do it for revenge against this type, I would tell you it should work wonders for you. But the average joe/jane is not apt to even know where he or she would get a beef heart, and several people in this day and age would also not have the stomach to work on it. 😉 Heck, I know people who can't even pull the giblets out of a supermarket turkey without turning a little green around the gills, and those are wrapped up in paper. With that in mind, I present this revenge spell which should be a bit easier for the modern spellcaster to locate all ingredients (and do the spell without wanting to barf.) Just a note, this will work better when placed near where the target will walk or frequently travel.

You will need:
Devil's shoestring piece
Spanish Moss
A good sized VERY HOT pepper (fresh)
Heavy black thread
A sewing needle
A sharp knife, box-cutter, or X-acto knife
A black or red very-fine-point permanent marker (I use Sharpie brand)
A medium sized jar with lid
A cannister of salt (table salt is fine) 
Tin foil
A physical item from your target (blood, fingernail clippings, worn clothing, hair, etc.)*

The pepper can be any pepper of your choosing – scotch bonnet peppers, habenero, or heck, even a ghost pepper if you're up for it. 😉 The hotter the pepper, the better. 

What we're going to do here is make your ex basically have a rage fit (or several,) that then reflect onto this person (harming only the target and his/her reputation) so that everyone thinks they are a crazy angry jerk and they hate this person, whilst simultaneously protecting you from further damage by this person. :) 

Start by writing the target's full name on the devil's shoestring. This is possible, so don't write to tell me it isn't. 😉 As you write the intended target's name, keep an image of them in your mind's eye, preferably with an expression of anger and misery. For some people, it is easier to keep an image of the target nearby to remain focused. Now wrap your personal item (or place it next to) around the devil's shoestring – still keeping the mental image of your target in your mind's eye, – and then place the bit of spanish moss around this. Cut a slit in your pepper, and place the spanish moss/devil's shoestring/personal item into the pepper. Thread your needle, and stitch 9 black X's into the pepper to stitch it closed. As you make each X, and keeping the mental image of your target in your mind's eye, say: "(Target's name), your anger and your rage enflame with every breath, and your rage destroys you." Once you have stitched this closed with 9 X's, gently wrap the pepper in tinfoil, placing the "shiny" side against the pepper, and saying "(Name of target,) all that you do and all that you say to hurt another reflects back onto you," saying this a total of 9 times. Again (since I will be asked), do try to keep a mental image of your target in your mind's eye as you do this. Now open your jar, and fill this about 1/3 to 1/2 full with salt. Place your foil wrapped pepper into the jar, and then fill the remaining space in the jar with salt, then secure the lid on top tightly. 

This next part will involve you holding the jar, and shaking it a prescribed amount of times while saying a specific chant. The nice thing with this chant is that you will be counting off how many times you shake the jar, so you don't need to keep a mental tally. So, hold the jar in both hands, say the chant, and where you say you are giving it a shake, give it one good shake each time. Hopefully that makes sense. You need to keep the mental image of your target in your mind's eye as you do this, and I also envision flames and black smoke traveling from me into the jar as I do this. The chant is as follows, "(Name of target,) you who are a villain to me, your true self is now laid bare for all to see. Your anger grows, your temper blows, your true nature everyone knows. Any harm or anger directed at another or at me, just reflects back at you and only hits thee. As I give this jar its (first/second/third/etc) shake, on the 9th its power awakes!" After the 9th shake, say "This spell shall not reverse nor place upon me any curse – as is my will, so be it!" 

While I recommend hiding or burying the jar close to the target or a place where they frequently pass, if this isn't possible you can bury it at a crossroads, OR if even that is impossible, place it where it will remain undisturbed in your home (though if the target isn't living with you, this is the least effective place to put the jar.)

This should make your monster ex lose his or her temper frequently, and make them go on tirades around others, effectively making others hate them or distance themselves from this person. It may even land this person in a psychiatric hold if they act crazy enough. 🙂 It basically is twofold…it causes unreasonable anger AND makes everything harmful they do towards you or another just reflect on their character. 🙂

I'm sure there will be questions, so feel free to contact me. 🙂

*This needs to be a physical item, not a photograph, signature, or "something someone touched once." You want a STRONG bond, and an image, signature or "something someone touched once," is not going to provide that. This spell is designed for revenge against someone you had, at one time, had a very intimate relationship with, so you should have access to this. Presumably someone (or several someones) will come to me and argue that no, they don't have anything like this because they (or their target) is a neatfreak and anyhow this was ages ago that this person wronged them, and etc, etc, etc. For what it's worth, I certainly would not have a personal item from someone I broke things off with several years ago, either, and it's pretty unlikely I'd even have anything like that if a few months had passed since we broke things off. 😛 HOWEVER, there are myriad revenge spells which do not require a personal item. If you don't have a witness sample that comes directly from the body of your target, please try a different spell. Asking me for substitutions for the personal item, and then giving me your excuses as to why you do not have this is not going to change the fact that it is required for this spell, and there is not a substitution. If you're really sure you need to use this very spell, then you know how to get something from your ex that you can use in revenge workings. I've known people to ask that the person snail mail them something (spit to seal the envelope,), or to stop by the ex's place and use the bathroom, etc, etc. Be creative.

**As always, someone will decide that they don't want to hurt their ex and will become desirous of breaking the curse. Simply locate the jar, uncap it, spill the salt out (I'd put the salt in the toilet and flush it,) clip the stitches on the pepper and separate the items, and burn the personal item and devil's shoestring, saying "(Name of target) I release you from this curse, and all of its effects." Throw away the pepper, thread, spanish moss, and jar – even best if you do this on trash day so that the remains are off of your property.
