Greetings, Witchy Souls! Madame Verveine here, ready to demystify a potent and practical form of conjure work: the Freezer Spell. Originating from the rich traditions of the American South, these spells are a powerful form of binding, though depending on your intent, they can certainly carry a hex-like quality.
The core purpose of a freezer spell is to "freeze someone out" or "put them on ice." This means preventing them from speaking against you, halting their negative actions, or binding them away from your life entirely. Today, we're delving into the workings of freezer spells, how to cast one effectively, and how to adapt this versatile magic to suit your specific situation.
Understanding the Mechanics of a Freezer Spell
Before we ignite our magical intentions, it's crucial to grasp the mechanics of this spell, its symbolism, and when it's truly the right tool.
How a Freezer Spell Works:
When you cast a freezer spell, you work with a wet material – traditionally a wet paper packet, a cow's tongue, a lemon, or a cucumber – which you dress and then freeze solid. The crucial principle here is that as long as the spell remains frozen, it remains active.
This unique characteristic offers a few key insights:
Continuous Engagement: Unlike spells you cast and then discard, a freezer spell requires ongoing maintenance. If you want it to work, it must stay in your freezer.
Easy Reversibility: This makes freezer spells incredibly adaptable. When you're ready for the spell's effects to end, simply unfreeze the spell and dispose of it appropriately. The magic dissipates as it thaws.
Practical Considerations: Freezer space can be a limitation. Also, discreet storage is key if you share a living space and aren't open about your witchcraft. A frozen cow's tongue might raise more questions than a discreetly wrapped paper packet! Choose your components wisely based on your living situation.
Essential Rules for Freezer Spell Components:
Must Freeze: For the spell to be effective, all ingredients must be able to freeze solid. This means avoiding oils or alcohol in your liquid components, as they won't freeze effectively or can cause instability. Your primary "vessel" or packet must also be wet when it goes into the freezer for the binding action to solidify. A dry packet won't achieve the same effect.
Symbolism is Power: The choice of your primary vessel and supporting ingredients significantly alters the spell's outcome. For instance:
A wet paper packet is a relatively neutral container, acting as a general binding.
A frozen cow's tongue specifically targets someone's speech, halting gossip, rumors, or verbal attacks.
A lemon is used to "sour" someone's life, adding a hex-like quality.
A pickle or cucumber (for men) or a fig (for women) are traditionally used to affect someone's sexuality, often to bind or "freeze" their libido towards others.
You must be crystal clear about your intention and design your spell components accordingly.

Important Misconceptions to Avoid:
A major misconception about freezer spells is using them to keep a partner faithful. Do not use a freezer spell on anyone you want to keep in your life, especially romantic partners, friends, or family. This spell is not "friendly." If you freeze your boyfriend to stop him from cheating, you will effectively "freeze him out" of your life entirely, nullifying your relationship. If you target his sexuality with, say, a pickle, you will also freeze his ability to be sexual with you.
This spell is for people you wish to be rid of, or whose negative actions you need to halt.
When a Freezer Spell Works Best:
Freezer spells are ideal for temporarily binding someone or their actions. While theoretically permanent if kept frozen indefinitely (great for those with deep freezers!), many find this impractical. They are also excellent for temporary hexing or cursing that you want the ability to easily reverse should circumstances change.
Consider a freezer spell for situations like:
A toxic coworker spreading rumors (a temporary situation where you want to halt their speech).
Freezing out competition in a specific scenario.
Halting legal proceedings against you.
If you need a permanent solution or a long-term binding, you may want to explore other magical workings, as the ongoing commitment to keeping the spell frozen can be a challenge for some. Choose your spell to align perfectly with the results you desire.
How to Cast Your Freezer Spell: Madame Verveine's "Menu of Options"
Rather than a rigid formula, I'll provide you with a flexible framework, a "menu of options" to tailor this spell to your specific needs.
1. Secure Your Taglock/Link to the Target:
The stronger your link, the more potent your spell.
Ideal: Hair, fingernail clippings, bodily fluids, or a personal item (e.g., a discarded receipt, a small piece of fabric from their clothing).
Alternative: A photograph of the target (with their full name and ideally their address on the back).
If all else fails: A small piece of paper with their full name, home address, birthday, and any other identifying information you can gather.
Petition Paper: You can also add a petition paper detailing your precise intent for the spell.
2. Choose Your Vessel (Container):
Many modern sources suggest glass jars, but glass can crack or shatter in the freezer. Freezer-safe jars are better, but they still don't add symbolic power.
Neutral/Benign Start: For a straightforward binding, I recommend a paper packet. This can be a wet piece of a brown paper bag or even a damp paper towel, folded to contain your components. Paper is neutral and doesn't add its own specific symbolism.
Symbolic Powerhouses: For more targeted effects, choose a vessel that embodies your intention:
Cow's Tongue: To silence gossip, slander, or negative speech.
Lemon: To sour an adversary's life or their reputation.
Pickle/Cucumber: To freeze a man's sexuality or ability to act against you.
Fig: To freeze a woman's sexuality or ability to act against you.
3. Select Your Liquids (Water-Based Only!):
If you're using a paper packet, liquids are essential for freezing. You can also soak items like lemons or tongues in liquids before freezing. Remember: no oils or alcohol!
Plain Water: For a straightforward binding without additional hexing effects.
Vinegar: To sour their lives, sour others against them, or cause discord.
War Water: For cursing or aggressive counter-magic.
Alum Water: To enhance silencing effects.
4. Procure Your Materia (Supporting Ingredients):
These roots, herbs, and other items amplify and refine your spell's effects. Choose based on your desired outcome:
Alum: To specifically silence them and "freeze" their words.
Black Pepper: To instigate fighting, irritation, or drive them away.
Poppy Seeds: To cause confusion, mistakes, or make them "sleep" on a situation.
Red Pepper: To heat up the spell, make lies "burn," and cause discomfort or anger.
Ash: To cause their life or plans to fall into ruin.
5. Assemble and Cast the Spell:
This is simpler than it seems!
Combine: Place your taglock, materia, and petition paper (if using) into your chosen container. If using a lemon or cow's tongue, cut it open, stuff everything inside, and then securely close it (you might sew it shut or use pins). For paper packets, simply fold everything inside.
Awaken & Petition: As you add each component, focus your intent. Awaken and petition the spirits within each item to assist you in your spellwork.
Soak & Seal: Soak your prepared spell in your chosen liquid (if using a paper packet or soaking other vessels). Once soaked, wrap the finished spell tightly in aluminum foil or brown paper to keep it contained and discreet.
Freeze It: Place your wrapped spell in the freezer.
Optional Candle Magic: Before freezing, you can burn a black or blue candle over the wrapped spell. Allow the wax to drip onto the container as you pray, meditate, or petition for your desired outcome. This adds an extra layer of focused energy.
6. Maintain and Dispose:
Keep It Frozen: Your spell must remain in the freezer for as long as you need its effects to be active. Do not remove it, do not thaw it, and do not dispose of it until you are ready for the spell to break.
Breaking the Spell: When you are completely finished and ready to end the spell, carefully remove any pins or sharp objects you may have included. Then, simply dispose of the spell. You can throw it in a dumpster (ensuring no sharp objects remain). Some practitioners choose to leave biodegradable components (like cow's tongue, once free of pins) out for animals, but this depends on your location and comfort level with local wildlife. Regardless of disposal method, ensure all sharp objects are removed! As the item thaws, the spell will break and its effects will dissipate.
Freezer spells are incredibly versatile tools in your magical toolkit, applicable to situations ranging from silencing gossip and handling court cases to freezing out competition or temporary hexing. They vary in aggression based on your chosen ingredients and intent. Hopefully, you now have a clearer understanding of how to wield this potent magic in your own craft should the need arise.
Do you feel ready to put some troublesome situations "on ice" with this powerful technique?
