Fiery Wall of Protection

As a rite, the Fiery Wall of Protection spell uses full panoply of spiritual supplies, but in a pinch, you can get by with only the candles and Dressing Oils, and you may substitute other ingredients as you see fit. Substitutions are explained below, after the basic form of the spell, under the headings of "Variations."

PREPARATION:
In addition to the items here, you'll need a clean white handkerchief, a small square of tin foil,and a photo of the perpetrator; if no photo is available, write his or her full name 9 times on a small piece of clean paper; if his or her name is unknown to you, write "The Evil One" 9 times on the paper.

DOING THE JOB:
Now you are ready to begin. Make the Fiery Wall of Protection incense powders into cones on an incense burner. Place the Graveyard Dirt in a china-ware saucer. Next, prepare the White Cross Candle for the Protectee. With a nail, carve the words "Saint Michael Archangel Protect Me or the name of whomever you are working for." Dress the Candle with Fiery Wall of Protection Dressing Oil. Dress the Angelica Root with the same Dressing Oil and place it at the base of the Candle. Around the central Candle and Angelica Root, lay out a circle of Fiery Wall of Protection Sachet Powder.

Now prepare the 7 Purple Guardian Candles by carving upon them the names of 7 protectors. These may be 7 Saints, 7 people such as family members or co-workers, or 7 officials such as the Police, Fire Department, Child Protective Services, etc. -- or a combination of names from any of these three groups of entities. Dress the 7 Purple Guardian Candles with Fiery Wall of Protection Dressing Oil. Place them in a circle right on the circle of Sachet Powder that goes around the cross Candle. Sprinkle them with a little of the powder, too. Place the Saint Michael Archangel Holy Card among them.

Finally, prepare the Black Perpetrator's Candle. With a nail, carve his or her full name (or the
"The Evil One") on it on one side and the words "Keep Away" or "Get Away" on the other side. Do not dress this Candle. Place it off to one side, outside the circle of Candles, on top of his photo or name on the paper. Place the saucer of Graveyard Dirt next to his Candle.

Light the Candles in this order: The Purple Guardians first, then the White Protectee within the circle, then the Black Perpetrator's Candle far outside the circle. Light the incense. While it burns, say out loud your prayer or wish for protection and call upon Heaven for aid. Ask for the intercession of Saint Michael Archangel, who guards Heaven with a sharp, cutting sword, and enjoin him to protect the one who needs protection with Seven Guardians, whether they be Guardian Angels or Human Guardians (including the Police, if you think this will be necessary).

Let the Candles and incense burn until the black Candle is half-burned. Then pick that Candle up and hold it in your hand. Take the perpetrator's photo or name-paper and lay it on the saucer of Graveyard Dirt . Set it on fire with the perpetrator's own black Candle and say, "Let your evil self be your own undoing!" When the paper has burned, turn the perpetrator's Candle upside down and extinguish it in the Graveyard Dirt and say, "Let your evil works be your ending!"

Allow the rest of the Candles to burn until they go out. Gather up the Angelica Root , some Sachet Powder, and the Saint Michael Archangel holy card and wrap them tightly in the tin foil, making a small packet. Tie the packet up in the white handkerchief with four knots. Dress it lightly with Fiery Wall of Protection Oil. To protect yourself, carry the packet on you; to protect your home, place it by your front door, to protect someone you love, give it to them to carry.

CLEANING UP:
Take the left-over materials (melted wax, nail, and so forth) and the saucer of Graveyard Dirt containing the perpetrator's ashes and his extinguished Candle and carry them to a graveyard and throw them against a grave stone, being sure to break the saucer as you throw this mess. Don't say a word; just turn and walk away home and don't look back.

When you get home and everything is all put away and cleaned up, dissolve the Fiery Wall of Protection Crystals in water as a floor wash and wash down your home, while you recite the 37th Psalm ("Fret Not Thyself With Evil-doers...") 37 times. You may also use them in your bath.
