When the evidence becomes overwhelming, When author Rich Newman first arrives at the battered doublewide trailer deep in the Mississippi Delta, it’s clear that this is no ordinary haunting. Called from Memphis to assist a local ghost hunting team, long-buried memories from Newman’s own past come back to haunt him—memories he’d rather forget. Collecting physical evidence, researching the violent history of the property, Newman’s investigation of the Martin house has become his most terrifying and mysterious case. What starts out as a malicious assault manifesting as deep rumbling sounds quickly spirals into a story of obsession, and sorting through the spiritual implications of demons

changes form. This is understood in both the scientific
and spiritual communities. Magically speaking, we have
the ability to summon, focus, “program”, project, and/or
banish (send away) energy, but no one has the ability to
destroy it. Energy is timeless and eternal.
Since we can “program” or “color” energy, either pur-
posely with our intent or accidentally through strong
blasts of emotion, we have the ability to extract that “coloring” from the energy though we cannot (nor should we
want to) destroy the energy itself. This is how we remove
negativity; we consciously focus our intent to transform
the energy in the area from negative to positive. This ac-
tion, in actuality, extracts the negative color of the energy and replaces it with positivity through the projection of
our will. This is the basic truth behind any method of en-
ergy work; the energy itself is a constant, the intent it carries is all that has changed. Thus, I use the term negativity as opposed to “negative energy” since we aren’t removing
the energy just the negative programming it carries.
Don’t get me wrong; we can send the energy itself
away if we choose to, but I personally feel that it is far more responsible (in most cases) to strip it of its vibe (coloring, charge, intent, program; so many words that mean
the same thing) and reprogram it rather than cast it away
as is; filled with negativity only to land somewhere else
and create turmoil wherever it winds up. Remember: for
the good of all and with harm to none!
Clearning and Cleansing 63
There are several different methods to magically clear
a space of negativity that you can perform using only in-
gredients from a supermarket. You can sprinkle powders,
use floor washes, anoint with magical oils, burn candles,
and even make magical charms that will absorb the nega-
tivity from the energy. We will examine all of these meth-
ods. First, I will give the recipes and then, I will follow with the spells. All of these clearing and cleansing spells are best performed during the time of the waning moon.
Brews
There are many things we can brew together in order to
cleanse and drive away negativity; some can be drunk but,
others cannot and I will definitely note which is which.
The brews that are created with the intention of drink-
ing them are known as potions and will be listed as such
in this book. The first magical brew I will present is the famous Four Thieves’ Vinegar whose origins can be traced
back to the Middle Ages. This vinegar is used for a vari-
ety of purposes from driving away illness to banishing (or even cursing) other people. There are many recipe variations; some including inedible ingredients such as worm-
wood, but this is my favorite recipe and it contains only
easily found and edible ingredients.
Four Thieves’ Vinegar
• 2 cups apple cider vinegar
• 9 cloves of garlic
64 Chapter 4
• 1 tablespoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
• 1 tablespoon sage
• 1 tablespoon thyme
Prepare the vinegar by dicing the garlic and adding
it and the herbs into your vinegar. Warm it in a pot (ide-
ally, a glass or enamel pot; no cast iron! ) according to the basic directions given at the beginning of Section 3 and
then, cool and bottle for four days; keeping it in a cool, dark place. On the fourth day, strain the herbs and garlic out of the liquid and rebottle the liquid for use. Since it is vinegar based, it should keep for ages. This vinegar is not meant to be in food, but since it is made with only edible ingredients it could be used in cooking though I couldn’t
comment on the taste or any recipe ideas. It could be
added in minute amounts to foods as an illness banisher
I suppose, if you wish to do so. I was told that if you swap out the black pepper and cayenne pepper with herbs
