Magically speaking, certain items carry significant power and symbolism. One such item, the silver Mercury dime, has gained a reputation for its potent magical properties. This small coin, bearing the image of the Roman god Mercury, is more than just currency; it’s a key ingredient in various spells, charms, and rituals designed to attract luck, protect against malice, and draw wealth.
The Origin and Significance of Mercury Dimes
Mercury dimes were minted in the United States between 1916 and 1945. They are named after the Roman deity Mercury, the messenger of the gods. Mercury was the god of commerce, communication, travelers, and games of chance. The association between the deity and the dimes makes them particularly potent in magical wealth, protection, and luck practices.
Uses in Money-Drawing Spells and Charms
Both the African-American hoodoo tradition and German folk magic involve the use of silver coins, such as the Mercury dime, to attract wealth. By combining these dimes with two-dollar bills, lodestones, sugar, and roots like John the Conqueror or lucky hand root in mojo bags or money jars, you can enhance your intentions and increase your chances of drawing financial prosperity and good luck in gambling.
Protection Against Curses and Malice
Mercury dimes are believed to have protective powers. For instance, wearing a silver Mercury dime as an anklet is said to bring good luck in games of chance and protect the wearer from curses. These dimes can also warn against harmful powders or poison when carried on one’s person.
For those who wish to counteract curses directly, boiling a Mercury dime in water or milk and then drinking the liquid is an old hoodoo remedy believed to cleanse oneself of harmful spells and energies.
What You Need to Know About My Services and Working With Me
I often find that people who want spells cast for them don’t always understand the dynamics of how magick actually works. This can be a real problem if they expect miraculous results every time they light a candle. I’ve created this guide to help provide answers about the work I do, what magick and spells are, and what you can expect from magical work. – Papa Gee.
Are spells guaranteed to work?
first, spells often DO work in ways you wouldn’t expect. True, they don’t always turn out exactly as we expect but they can often lead to more success and a life filled with a lot more luck. But spells, like prayers, don’t always work, and no one can promise guaranteed results. This is because magic and spiritual practices involve lots of different factors we can’t control. Just like with prayers, a spell’s outcome depends on things like how clear your intentions are, the energy you put in, external circumstances, and the will of the universe.
One reason spells might not work every time is that it’s tough to get everything perfectly aligned. The universe follows its own rules, and sometimes what we want doesn’t fit with the bigger picture. So, even if you create the perfect spell, sometimes the answer is “no” or “not now.”
Many times, the person asking for a spell to be performed is the main reason it fails. Every choice you make, everything you say, and every move you make every minute of the day can affect whether or not a spell will work. If you cast a spell to pass a test, you still must study hard. A spell for a job doesn’t mean you get a free pass for a bad interview or lack the skills needed. Casting a spell of communication won’t work if you argue with your target when they finally call. A spell to force an ex to return will fail if they don’t love you, and if they do return and the past problems are not corrected, it could lead to a repeat breakup.
Self-sabotage is the main reason why a spell might fail. If you’re doing spellwork to have an ex-love return to you desperately, but you’re actively seeing other people, you’re sending the Universe a mixed message. Are you there ready to receive them back or not? If you are only applying for jobs you aren’t qualified for, your job spell is probably going to fail. If you are pining for someone and want to be with them, but you don’t have the guts to actually TELL that person you are interested in them – you’re not putting in the necessary work. Or, you want your love to return but everytime you speak to them you are negative, bring up old wrongs, or start an argument, you are working against your spell to bring them home. You want that special person to notice you but you don’t bother grooming yourself to make yourself attractive? Once again, you’re working against yourself. So, your active PARTICIPATION in how you conduct your life has everything to do with how well a spell performs.
When it comes to love spells, being honest with yourself is a MAJOR factor. Everyone seems to want to blame the other woman he left you for with, “she’s used black magic to get him away from me!” Possible. But most of the time, it is unlikely. I’ve seen clients use this as a cop-out so they don’t have to take responsibility for their part in why the relationship didn’t work in the first place. If you had a part to play in the demise of the relationship, be honest about it and apologize for it. An apology will go much further than a pink love candle. Now, an apology PLUS a pink love candle might be a pretty good combination! But if he has blocked you on all his social media, hangs up when you call, and has a restraining order on you, (don’t think I haven’t seen this scenario) then you need to face facts, put the candels down and leave that man alone. I always say, the best ingredient in a love spell is a healthy dose of self-respect.
It’s also good to remember that spells, like prayers, often work in subtle ways. You might not see immediate results. Instead, they could show up slowly or in unexpected forms. For instance, a spell for career growth might not get you a promotion right away, but it could lead to networking opportunities or skill development that help you grow professionally over time.
In both magic and spirituality, patience and perseverance are crucial. Be open to the idea that your desired outcome might take time or come in a different form than you expected. Sometimes, you have to do continuous spellwork to get results. This openness helps you align better with the natural flow of energy and the universe’s dynamics.
Spells are complex, ever-changing processes influenced by many internal and external factors. If anyone says their spell is guaranteed to work, run away—you’re about to get scammed.
What I DO guarantee is that, when I perform candle and spellwork for you, the work will be performed for you to the best of my ability using all my knowledge and energy. Why can’t I absolutely guarantee your end result? Because no one can — a doctor cannot guarantee he can cure you; a lawyer cannot guarantee they will win your court case. But, a good doctor or lawyer will do their best work on your behalf. I can tell you that if you adjust your behavior, attitude, and choices to align with what you seek, together, we have a greater chance of achieving your goal.
