Shut Up Spells

[SunKat]

Shut Up Spells, a.k.a. Anti-Gossip, Stop Gossip, Stop Backbiting, etc., is a category of spells in the practice of Hoodoo/Rootwork and occult magic that act to silence a person from gossiping about one, spreading vicious lies, back-talking, and rumor-mongering. Shut Up Spells range can be either examples of white magic or black magic. White magic Shut Up Spells use ingredients to sweeten a person or make a person friendlier. Black magic Shut Up Spells can be either justified or unjustified in nature. Those that are justified involve the use of *hot*, *sour*, *bitter*, or *puckering* ingredients to magically cause pain and may even employ actual animal tongues, such as a beef tongue, in order to make someone "hold their tongue" or prevent them from speaking ill of one. Examples of unjustified black magic Shut Up Spells would be to use such against people who are testifying against one in a court of law when one is indeed guilty.

The Infamous Beef Tongue Spell To Make Someone Hold Their Tongue

Items Needed:

- 1 Beef Tongue (From The Butcher Or Supermarket/Grocery Store) 
- 1 Name-Paper With The Persons' Name 
- 9 Coffin Nails 
- Hair From The Person (Optional) 
- Red Pepper 
- Black Pepper 
- Salt 
- Lemon 
- Alum (Optional) 
- Knife

Procedure:

Fix a name-paper with the name of the person written 9 times right under each other. Turn the paper counter-clockwise and write a phrase similar to "Hold Your Tongue" or "Shut The Fuck Up!", written 9 times as well, right over the names which you just wrote. This is called 'crossing and covering'. Fold the paper away from you. Take the knife and make a slit in the tongue. Sprinkle the red pepper, black pepper, salt, and the juice of freshly-squeezed lemon into the slit. Place the hair and name-paper into the slit as well. Use the coffin nails to close up the slit in the tongue by piercing them through each side. Now what you do next is up to you. You can do any of the following;

1.) Cook the tongue by boiling it in water. When the tongue is thoroughly cooked, eat it. (Remove the nails before eating. As far as the name-paper goes, some people say that you have to eat it too, but it's really up to you.) Note: If you are going to cook the tongue do not use alum.

2.) Place the tongue in the freezer to "freeze" the person's tongue. Keep it in the freezer until the threat has passed.

3.) If you are bold enough, take the tongue and place it on the front porch of the person.

4.) Take the tongue to the crossroads and then walk away and not look back.
