In all ages and in all countries many bizarre, strange, and unusual practices have been employed in the burial and funeral rites of the deceased. Death is truly the GREAT UNKNOWN and, therefore, both fascinates and frightens us all. It is the ultimate goal of the black magician or sorceror. The most common burial place the deceased in a coffin, from plain pine box to elaborate caskets covered and decorated with satin, velvet, or other flashy material. By natural association nails that have been taken from a coffin and then used in a magical evil spell are alleged to be more powerful than those using a new nail or pin. The concept is that whatever caused the death of the person from which the nail has been taken will transfer itself by contagious magic and will cause harm to another when struck into a symbolic image of ones enemy. Eg (DOLL SORCERY). Any black arts spell is said to gain potency when coffin nails are used in place of the pins generally prescribed. PLEASE NOTE: Before undertaking any spells of evil, think seriously of the fact that any result obtained from the use of any ritual related is the sole responsibility of the magician, and unless one is willing to accept this obligation, one should not attempt magical means for solving ones vexations. BLACK MAGIC SHOULD ALWAYS BE AVOIDED AND NOT BE PLAYED WITH FOR WHATEVER YOU SEND OUT WILL RETURN...
