Chicken Foot & How There Really Used.
Chickens are often seen scraping, kicking, scratching at the ground which appear to be that their sweeping or cleaning. In the traditional magic a chicken is a powerful symbol of purification. In Vodou it is use to cleanse a person, and can be used to heal.
For centuries, dried chicken feet have been used as a charm for protection against evil. When hung in a doorway, to protect your home, or hung on the car mirror. Just seeing the foot hanging from a mirror of your car would stop someone from steeling it.
But the truth it's does not protect you from evil may that be malicious spirits or even demonic. It doesn't bring good luck either I mean was it good luck for the rabbit when we take it's foot. NO.. so why would it be good for the chicken. Chickens are gentle creature in nurture. They protect, they defend against those who try to hurt it, and that's what it would do for you protect.. it's a symbol of spirit work. It will help you fight back.
So what it does this mean, protection for you from negative energy, negative influences that a spirit my leave behind or send towards you.
It can also protect you from a hotfoot spell sent to you because hot foot is just bad energy right similar to the evil eye. Now I'm mentioning hexing also because the foot can be used with a doll to scratch back at your enemies. The chicken foot I use is this one.
It is purple and black with same colored feathers with the evil eye on it. Now you don't need to have a colored one or even a decorated one if you don't want to but there still cool to look at.
Start: once you have your foot you need to activate it. I use cigar smoke and sage to cleanse the negative energies from it a little Holy water and a prayer to St Michael. Then some holy oil or protection oil on it.
Use: To spiritually cleanse your body, take your chicken foot and make a scratching motion about one inch from your skin, starting at the top of your head, working your way down to your feet. Give your feet extra attention by working the chicken foot back and forth from heel to toe.
If you prefer to do or add you can also try the egg cleansing useing the same motion from top to bottom.. that's a old tradition that works.
When working with anything in nature like animals you must understand what it can do.
