THE GRIMOIRE / CURSES

The bitter cup of consequence

Set the bitter result of harmful choices before the person who made them.

What you’ll need

  • A cup
  • Used coffee grounds
  • A strip of paper
  • A spoon

The ritual

  1. Write the harmful choice on the paper and place it beneath the empty cup.
  2. Spoon the used grounds into the cup, naming the consequence that naturally follows.
  3. Turn the cup once counterclockwise and leave it covered overnight.
  4. Compost the grounds, wash the cup, and take one practical step that allows the consequence to stand.
