It’s never a good idea to give bad people a head start in their nefarious activities, so here are a few basic things you can do to make the work of a black magician harder. Just as determined criminals are never deterred, the dilettante maybe put off for a while. I mentioned blood in a previous article, and it is unlikely you gave a syringe for their safe-keeping, but a few drops from a cut is enough (amazing number of magical rituals require the magician to cut themselves).
Blood in Black Magic
Blood is probably number one, but sexual fluids from a man or a woman, or preferably mixed together are particularly potent, and it is likely that one of the partners is in cahoots with a black magician, which can make things rather interesting. You may also want to take a little bit more care when kissing a black magician, for saliva is also very useful
Nails and hair in Black Magic
In more formal and less intimate settings hair or nail clippings are very useful, ensure you properly dispose of them. A hairbrush in a handbag is very inviting at a social event.
Next, and not necessarily less potent in the right (should that be wrong?) hands, are personal items, particularly jewellery or clothes, preferably underwear that has not been washed.
Hopefully the above has not made you too paranoid. Its like waving around the latest and most expensive mobile phone in a public place – you are practically inviting thieves to steal it. With some care and consideration, you can look after yourself, so the baddies work harder.
Finally, if you do mix it with Black Magicians (they can be fun), always buy your own drink, and keep it with you at all times, even going to the loo.
