Banishing Spell

The following is the Binding Spell from Yasmine Galenorn's book Embracing the Moon.  The spell has been altered slightly.  You may also use a different oil if necessary.

Materials:

• 1 black taper or image candle (gender depends on who you are  trying to bind) 
• nail
• black cloth
• a large piece of black cloth
• red ribbon
• cotton
• needle and thread
• Banishing oil (see below)
• loose tabacco
• a small mirror that can stand by itself
• If you can obtain hair or nail clippings from the person or a  picture, you can  use it in this spell.

Sew the pieces of the poppet together, leaving a hole through which you can stuff the poppet.  Fill it with cotton and tobacco, and if you  have the hair or nail clippings fo the person, add those to it.  Once it is  filled, sew the  opening closed.  If you have a picture of the person, staple or sew it to the  front of the poppet.

Next, care the name of the person onto the black candle with  the nail and add  these runes:  Thuraz, Isa, Eihwas, a dark filled in circle to represent the dark moon, bars like you will see in a jail, and a widdershins  spiral.

Anoint the candle and the poppet with the oil.

Cast a circle, invoke the elements, God or Goddess you are working with.
Light the alter candles.
Light the black candle and adjust the mirror so that flame is  reflected in  the glass.

Hold the poppet out in front of you and say: 

"Creature of cloth thou art,
Creature of flesh and blood you be.
 I name you (name of the person you are binding).
No more shall you do me harm.
No more shall you repeat false tales.
No more shall you interfere in my life, nor in the lives of my loved ones.
By the power of the Gods and by my will,
So mote it be!"

Now take the ribbon and begin to wrap the poppet like a mummy, leaving no  space unwrapped. 
Say:

I bind your feet from bringing you harm to me.
I bind your hands from reaching out to harm me.
I bind your mouth from spreading false tales to harm me.
I bind your mind from sending energy to harm me.
If you do so continue, let all negative energy  be cast and reflected directly at you!

Wrap the poppet in the black cloth and tie with another length of ribbon.
Say:

Great Mother, I have bound this person
from harming me and my loved ones.
 By the powers of three times three
By Earth and Fire, Air and Sea
I fix this spell, then set it free
Twill give no harm to return to me
As I will, So mote it be!
