Coffin nails are a necessary component in many forms of magick, including Hoodoo, Voodoo, Wicca, Witchcraft, Obeah, and Santeria.
Coffin nails are used to break curses, reverse spells, break addictions, rid oneself from evil, to stop fights, general protection, or to nail down something such as a goal or specific objective.
You can hammer the nails into the four corners of the home, or on either side of door jams, or window sills, to keep your money in your house.
Coffin nails can also be used in binding spells.
They can be used to add power to other spells, sealing them or anchoring them down.
They are often included in nation sacks, mojo (gris gris) bags or amulets of protection.
They are also used for negative spells or charms.
Place at the four corners of your property for protection, carry in a red mojo, place in a curse bottle, or use in all manner of protection, warding, reversing, and hexing spells!
You can take a strip of white cotton cloth, lay it head to toe on a sick person, command the illness to go into the cloth (SEE the illness), then fold the cloth at least 3 times from head to toe, pierce it with three coffin nails, place it in a bag with salt, then throw the contents into a river to cleanse the illness. This could also be done to remove jinxes/curses/hexes from a person, or evil entities.
