Hex Breaker

Hex Breaker is one of my most *routinely* used materia - I anoint doors and windows with it as part of my new moon rites. It not only wards against outside dangers; its scent and energy permeates my home and purifies it. The lemon and rosemary fragrance is supremely uplifting, as well. I would wear it on its own if it weren't so intensely magical!

I've used hex breaker only twice and both times it was fast and smoothed the way greatly. It is gentle and I wasn't expecting that, the second time I used it was a ritual over many days with mantras chanted for hours and candles burned using the planetary hours of Jupiter and Saturn. Because there was so much focus, I noticed the fluctuations in energy on days when the star was being eclipsed and it was definitely more 'present' when it wasn't. I used a deity who I have a relationship spanning years with as a way of approaching and that relationship next levelled at the same time which was a powerful by-product of the time spent. It may sound odd but there is kindness and compassion here, there was a lot of reverence in my approach and I felt as though it was returned in kind.

This smells clean. That's the only way I can describe it. You FEEL clean when you sniff it. I'm not even sure that makes sense!

I've been feeling off for a WHILE. Like, I needed to do some heavy unjinxing/ hex removing / make all the bad stuff LEAVE. Some awful things went down over the past few months, so we ordered Hex Breaker.

Putting it on and anointing a candle, makes you feel like the gloom starts to lift. You feel it work.

The next thing that happened might seem odd to note as a "this worked." But, suddenly, I started realizing shit I needed to do to fix my circumstances.

Then found the energy to do it.

That's the important part. I was suddenly spurred to "I can do this" and also found my voice to speak up.

The speaking up has been bumpy. But worth it. I'm learning things! I'm fixing things. I recommend the heck out of this.

I wasn't intending to order from the Algol series. To be honest, it scared me, even with my Sun conjunct Algol conjunct the MC in the 10th.

It was not until my sixth or seventh order from S+S that I even allowed myself to look at the series.

That said, I found myself reading the Hex Breaker description and literally crying, therapeutically, and so I put on my big girl pants and ordered it.

It came today. One day early...

I put the Hex Breaker straight on my heart center as soon as I opened the box, which included other materia...

I have been going through a wild divorce since my ex attacked me with a rifle and held me at knifepoint on 2/17/20, and it's a civil and criminal matter. He had been holding up the divorce papers all these months in an attempt to get me to drop the aggravated assault charges, which I refuse to do...

NOT 10 MINUTES AFTER I APPLIED HEX BREAKER I RECEIVED THE SIGNED DIVORCE PAPERS FROM MY ATTORNEY.

Praise Algol, Kaitlin Coppock, and this potent magic. I am in awe

I have history with Mother Algol, although until receiving this perfume I did not realize it. While my sister and I were growing up, we were subjected to many different forms of abuse and the hands of our father. We would, at times, wake in the middle of the night to the light in our room flickering on and the ceiling fan turning at an insanely fast speed. Sometimes my sister would dream she was being suffocated or that she was levitating. I would wake to find the sheets of my bed pulled off of me or feel my feet being touched. At the time (being raised in a mid-west Christian household) my mother believed we had demons in our room. After she divorced our dad, she had a new boyfriend who was a Native shaman. He came and prayed over the house and afterward informed us that all of the chaotic and dark energy was emanating directly from our father. He gave us an herbal wash for a bath so we could cleanse our spirits. He also said something else, which was that there was a great being watching over us, but he couldn't tell who it was, only that it was extremely powerful and had actually kept our father from hurting us worse than he had. Again, at the time both my sister and I had a very limited view of spirituality and spirit beings, so it was not until years later that this has started to make sense for me. When I received Hex Breaker, I felt the extremely powerful energy coming from it even before I opened the package, but then I also felt that there was a familiarity there. It didn't feel as though I was encountering an entirely new energy, but rather that I was experiencing a potent concentration of an energy I have known for a very long time. After I sat with the perfume and tried to recall how I knew this energy, I kept thinking of the sound of the ceiling fan in my childhood room turning on in the middle of the night by itself and I realized Algol had been this protective energy I experienced. It seemed like any time I would wake with a start in the middle of the night, then the fan would turn on or the light would come on. So it would always be a negative experience like something touching my feet or yanking my sheets off of me that there would be an electric disturbance afterward. These disruptions, I realized, were not caused by the same things. It was Algol interceding on my behalf when my father's chaotic and abusive energy would try to harm me in the middle of the night. When I put all of this together, I cried. I am so grateful for this series because I now have direct offerings for the star that has watched over me since I was a young girl. The one time I used Hex Breaker was to ward off some very dark energy being directed at me from a distance and since the ritual, I have not been bothered by that person. This is incredibly potent and precious perfume, and if you encounter people who have the means to harm you on multiple levels then I highly recommend purchasing it. When approached respectfully and honorably, Mother Algol is the most fierce protector.

I want to preface this with a HUGE "Your Mileage May Vary", but for me I think this oil is actually relationship-building. Before purchasing, I pulled cards to see what would happen if I purchase it, which was 2 of cups (and a negative card if I didn't purchase it). So, you know, seemed like a pretty good sign.

When I first got the bottle and opened it up to sniff and acquaint myself, I actually cried (and let me tell you, this Libra did not want to cry and mess up her makeup). I was overwhelmed by acceptance, love, and I repeatedly heard the phrase "nobody will ever hurt you again" in my head. It was profound.

I usually think of myself as a 'solar' person, but I've been getting pinged by dark goddesses lately, or atleast their archetypes. The experience has actually been incredibly affirming and validating. It is my understanding that this oil is supposed to be solely a Hex Breaker, but for me I've been using it to dress candles when giving offerings, and I think it's deepening that relationship with these dark mothers, and with myself. It's been very healing and transformative. I'm looking forward to engaging with this for the rest of 2020.

And yes, by the way, it smells amazing.
