Hey there occulties,
Have you ever dealt with a situation where you knew someone was talking badly, but you just couldn't quite pinpoint who? A few years have passed since this experiment, but needless to say, it worked, - and quite quickly.
A little background is needed... I was acquainted with a person who would always tell me I did this or that thing, or said this or that thing (always a hurtful action, and nothing I was guilty of,) and that they had proof because someone they refused to name had told them as much. As I'm not one to deny doing something controversial or upsetting IF I did such a thing (because I won't admit to doing something I did not do, but if I did it, I'll own up,) nor am I one to say something bad and not admit I had said it if I am confronted, this was a puzzle. I was doing nothing hurtful and not saying any thing hurtful. Was this a problem where the acquaintance as imagining the wrong-doing on my part and blaming the accusations of said wrong-doing on a non-existent witness against me...or was there really someone saying all of this. I mean, I had to get to the source, because either situation was not really acceptable. Clearly either my friend was making up stories about me, or someone else was, and without knowing which was the case, I would have to uncover the antagonist using magic.
I procured the skull of a rat (you can actually get this item at a place like Skulls Unlimited,) and, removed the wax from the head area of a figural candle (I used a male candle in this case, as I was 99.9% I was dealing with a man,) placing the skull which I'd stuffed with a special blend of herbs to make someone talk and a small slip of paper with a command inside on top of the "headless" figural to act as the head of the candle. I wrote "expose yourself to me" on the skull of the candle with a sharpie as well. I placed this item into a tray filled with sand and surrounded it with 9 candles, each with the command "expose yourself" inscribed up (base to wick,) and anointed up in commanding oil. I did a chant to specify what I wanted to happen (I made it up on the fly, so I can't recall the exact chant now,) and allowed the candles surrounding the "Rat man" to burn out.
About a week or two later, I was at a bar that myself and many friends would frequent, and, as happens in a bar, I had to use the restroom because I'd had about 3 drinks. ;) As it so happens, I open the door to the bathroom, and I got a full view of a particular male patron who was a friend of mine. He actually turned a bit, which clearly exposed his man parts. I apologized and closed the door. As is common enough in more than one place in Portland, there was one toilet for ladies, and one for gents, but there is literally ONE TOILET (no stall,) for each, so basically if yours is taken, you just lock the door even if in the "wrong gendered" bathroom, and no one gives a hoot. This is a common enough thing to happen, so I thought nothing at all of it - someone just forgot to lock the bathroom door. Then it happened a second time. Then it happened a third. In the same night. Mind you, I'm not watching this person for when they go to the bathroom, and the second time, I had tried the gentleman's bathroom, so it's not like he's running into the ladies' bathroom to expose himself to women.
As I sit down at the bar after this third exposure, the person who I'd walked in on goes up to me and says "Look, if you're trying to see if I'm texting (friend,) I'm not. I figured (friend) would tell you what I said, and that I said it. I was really drunk both times. I'm sorry, I know that I went overboard." Aha! The rat has now been exposed FIGURATIVELY as well as 3 times quite literally!
So, I got to not only confront my accuser, but see his man bits (to which I had not ever desired to see said parts in my life.) The spell was a success, however, I clearly needed to adjust the working if I tried it again, if not just to spare myself from undesirable nudity. ;)
I hope that gave you all a smile,
~Cat
