This was and remainsespecially true in the Kongo, from whence most African-American slavescame, and in West Africa, where most Afro-Caribbean slaves came. In African-derived magic such as hoodoo and Obeah, graveyard dirt is an important "magical link" (in the Crowleyan sense ofthat term), because of the powerful cultural beliefs centered around therole of the dead in rituals of invocation. There are basically three ways that Graveyard Dirt is employed in hoodoo:ĭespite its inclusion in such harmful formulas, graveyard dirt is not evil per se, and it has uses allits own that reflect its venerable stature in the African religious practice ofancestor veneration. Iwouldspeak to the spirit, *listen* deeply to what was offered or denied, andthen iwould comply with the wishes of the deceased, which may differ fromgrave siteto grave site. I would place a small offering of flowersfirst,keeping other offerings, such as coins, in reserve for possible use. If you wish to learn more about the spirits in a particular graveyard, i suggest that you go to each grave site in turn,individually and respectfully. I recommend that after you enter a cemetery, if you have no particular grave in mind to visit, that you let yourself be spirit-led to the grave that attracts you. There is a huge difference between capturing a person / spirit (which isunlawful enslavement) and offering to pay for the person's / spirit'sservices(which is an honest transaction of employment). I believe that you will learn more and do more effective spiritual workif you do not think of what you plan as "capturing" graveyard dirt but think ofit by the term that it generally called, namely, "buying" graveyard dirt. Beyondthat there are numerous details - whose grave, the kind of death theydied, where the grave is located with respect to the cemetery gates,whether you dig from the head, the heart, or the feet, whether you leavedimes or pennies or whiskey or a combination, and how you place the withrespect to the grave.īecause i collect graveyard dirt quite often, ihave had the opportunity to try each of the different forms of theritual that i have been taught - and i have found them to be equivalentin practice, with one exception: i have come to appreciate the advice toget dirt from the grave of a soldier, because such dirt is from thegrave of one who was unusually strong and obedient. You have to get in touch with theancestral spirit and make a respectful application and payment. Methods by which one pays for graveyard dirt vary from worker to worker,but the principle is always the same.
