The Uncrossing Tradition
Jinx Removing Oil is a ritual oil for uncrossing, a kind of work also documented in African American hoodoo. A “crossed condition” describes a state of persistent bad luck, blockage, or malevolent spiritual interference that accumulates through direct hexing, careless enemy action, or simple buildup of negative influence over time. Identifying and resolving a crossed condition is called uncrossing work.
Traditional uncrossing formulas draw on herbs with long histories as spiritual cleansers: rue for breaking evil, hyssop for biblical purification cited in Psalm 51, agrimony for returning hexes to their sender, and lemongrass for refreshing the aura after clearing work.
How Practitioners Apply Jinx Removing Oil
The most common application is candle work. A black or white reversing candle is dressed with jinx removing oil using downward strokes, pushing the crossed energy away, then burned on a petition paper bearing the practitioner’s name or the condition being dissolved. Some practitioners work a seven-night sequence, relighting the candle each night with fresh prayer, often drawing on Psalms 37, 51, or 109. The oil can also be added to a ritual bath, applied to the soles of the feet before entering a space suspected of carrying hostile energy, or used to anoint doorknobs and thresholds when clearing a home.
In a floor wash, a few drops of jinx removing oil added to the mop water along with sea salt and lemon juice makes a full-space clearing preparation. For practitioners who suspect enemy action rather than accumulated negative buildup, pairing jinx removing oil with a reversing or return-to-sender oil on separate candles addresses both the removal and the deflection in a coordinated working.
How to Use Jinx Removing Oil
Three methods for applying jinx removing oil in uncrossing, cleansing, and protection practice.
- Dress candles for an uncrossing working
Apply jinx removing oil to a black or white candle using downward strokes from wick to base, pushing the crossed condition away. Place the dressed candle over a petition bearing your name and light it across a seven-night uncrossing sequence.
- Prepare a spiritual cleansing bath
Add a small amount of jinx removing oil to a warm bath along with sea salt and a handful of hyssop if available. Soak for at least fifteen minutes while focusing on releasing the crossed condition, then air dry without toweling.
- Anoint thresholds and personal items
Apply jinx removing oil to the four corners of doorframes, the bottoms of shoes before leaving the house, and to any personal objects that feel spiritually compromised. For floor washes, dilute several drops in salted hot water.
The Tarot Fellow Standard
Jinx Removing Oil is a useful ritual oil for uncrossing work, and the 4-dram size is the right amount for a sustained uncrossing practice without waste. I stock it because crossed conditions are a common concern in ritual work, and having the right oil on hand matters for working with intention and precision. For sustained uncrossing candle work, browse my 7-day jar candles to pair with this oil, and explore my oils and diffusers for more ritual oils that support a complete uncrossing working.
