There were many spells and charms in Scotland to cure the effects of the evil eye. The formula was only effective if passed down from man to woman, and from woman to man. It was used in conjunction with water from a stream over which both the living and the dead passed.
I trample upon the evil eye As the horse upon the plain and the swan upon the water Power of wind I have over it Power of fire I have over it Power of thunder and lightning Power of storms I have over it Power of Moon I have over it Power of Sun and of stars A part of it upon the grey stones A part of it upon the steep hills And a portion of it upon the swift waterfalls A part of it upon the great, salt sea She herself is the best instrument to carry it The great, salt sea. In the name of the Sacred Three In the name of all the Secret Ones And of the powers all together. |
