Zawba PowderThe hell! Vanilla has long been used for love; thyme to keep money in your house and bring peace of mind; almond - well, I was taught to use the oil as the base for magical oils because of its mild fragrance and long shelf life. It stands for God's vigilance and swift response, according to Wikipedia. Wintergreen's magical attributes add zap to your love, money and sexual life. Yeah, I can see the dissension now:
Brown [That's the color you are supposed to add]
Vanilla powder
Thyme
Wintergreen
Almond
A special blend which is used to create dissension between lovers and very close friends. Sprinkle on those individuals you wish to cast a spell upon. This is a black magick blend.
"Dammit, I love you more than you love me." "No, I love you more!"Yeah, that's gonna work really well.
"B*tch! What part of 'buy municipal bonds' don't you understand?"
Let's try one more:
Shoe String Root PowderWell, the latter might be true: Some people use vetiver for love; patchouli works for love, money and protection. But how the hell can he call it "Shoe String Powder" and not include any Devil's Shoe String? That's one of the best protective herbs I know.
Vetivert
Patchouli
Sprinkle around the home to protect the inhabitants against death. Also brings extreme good luck to those who play cards as it invokes lucky spiritual forces.

LOL that's so funny, but yeah Slater has a poor poor reputation among anyone who has read his book and his "formulas" just don't hold water.

I know. cat yronwode hosts a much more instructive article here. The thing is, I found the formulary in the files section of a Yahoo group I joined recently -- so I guess Slater still gets some play.
Gidday,
Just wondering what you would include in "Zawba" powder to create dissension between lovers?
I actually own and have used Slaters formulary book with great success, but I did scrap the ingredients of his Zawba in the spell I was working and substituted it for my own blend. As with any magikal text these days one must use thier own knowledge and intuition when reading and applying anothers magikal ideas.

Magikal Hermit, I wouldn't bother trying to reformulate "Zawba" powder -- I'd just be reinventing the wheel. I'd use Break Up, Separation, or Inflammatory Confusion powder for this purpose -- or all three together. They've been available from reputable spiritual suppliers for decades. Lucky Mojo, for instance, has them all.
By the way, my blog is now at http://www.hoodoofoundry.com.
