Stop Gossip Spell (Tapa Boca Spell)

Use Cloves, Chia, Alum Powder and Slippery Elm to stop gossip. Grind equal parts into a powder to dress a tapa boca or a black candle.  Write the person's name on the candle and put a big X on their name. Burn devil's shoestring to help stop gossip.

Light the candle and say the following three times:
 
Rumors, slander, standing stout,
With this 'x' I cross you out.
I toss their words into the fire
All these lies no longer hire
All bad things done and said,
Leave my life;  be gone, be dead
All the evil that they say,
Make it all go away
Rumors carry me no more
Be gone, be dead, be no more.
