To Protect Your House

You need:

• A whole head of Garlic
• 3 large 'iron' nails


• 9 pieces of White Thread (7 inches long each)


• 6 pieces each of Black Thread and Red Thread (7 inches long each)


• Wax


• One White Egg


• Water


• Wine

1. Twist or braid 3 white, 2 red and 2 black threads together, melt a little wax and dip the threads so that it forms a stiff twine/wick like feel.


2. Do this two more times so you have 3 waxed braids.


3. Place the nails in a fire until they are red hot, while still hot (you can let them cool a little bit) wrap each nail with a garlic leaf.


4. Then wind one of the waxed threads around each leave covered nail.


5. In a dish or bowl make a triangle with the nails and place it in a safe place (or your altar).


6. Place the egg in the triangle so it stands up, sprinkle with wine and water everyday.
