Greek Necromantic Spell (1)

For the ancient Greeks, a fire made from privet [Ligustrum vulgare] opened the gates to the afterlife. To summon and speak with ghosts, burn wormwood on a bed of privet fire.

Here’s the spell to summon Death. If Prue really did write it, it’s interesting that she refers to Death as an angel. She asked Leo if there was such thing as “the angel of Death’, but to put it in a spell?

I’m also assuming it should be “air, earth and sea”, but my headcanon is Prue changed it to be sand because she associates the beach so deeply with the death of her mother. Surely, by making it more personal, the spell would be more powerful.

Which is cool.

Mugwort Ghost Spell

Desires may be complex. Although you may wish to consult with a ghost, you don’t necessarily want that desire to be misinterpreted as an invitation to follow you home. Mugwort both facilitates communication with the dead and protects you from them.

Burn an offering of mugwort: this enhances your psychic senses, enhancing your powers powers of reception with other realms.

Keep the mugwort burning following the ghost’s apparent departure.

When you depart, step over the burning mugwort; this allegedly stops a ghost from following you.

Dumb Supper Spells

Do you wish to dine with Dr. Dee, Madame Blavatsky, and Mamzelle Marie Laveau? Invite them! Perhaps you’d rather share a meal with your late great-grandmother. Invite her, too! Dumb Suppers are ritual meals enacted between living and the dead. “Dumb” indicates not a lack of intelligence but that these meals (and any communication) are conducted in silence. While the dead are formally invited to attend, all cooking and serving is done by the living. Although a dumb supper may be served at any time, traditionally they are scheduled to coincide with Halloween, the time of year when the veil between realms is thinnest. Extend specific invitations, or allow yourself to be surprised by who shows up.

Seance Incense

Grind frankincense resin and sandalwood powder together and burn. The fragrance lets ghosts know they’re welcome, while simultaneously beckoning angelic and other protective powers.

Dumb Supper Extravaganza

Set a table for a banquet.

Invite a number of people, both living and otherwise.

Dress for dinner. Set the table beautifully. Make sure there are sufficient chairs and place settings for the unseen guests.

Do not speak at all. Do not serve yourself. Everyone must serve others, living or otherwise. Allow yourself to become sensitive to the desires of others. (You may also designate specific people to serve as waiters.)

When the meal is over, dishes cleared away, and everyone has left the table (and the dead have presumably departed), discuss experiences, perceptions, and insights.
