Origin & Lore

Go Away Evil belongs to the family of named banishing and protection oils in hoodoo and the spiritual-supply tradition. It is used to drive off evil spirits, ill-wishers and hostile energy from a person, home or object. It is often used after a cleansing to keep the space clear.

Protection in folk magick is not only a wall; it is a push.

Spiritual-supply catalogs paired banishing oils with powders and incenses for the same purpose, and practitioners used them in the house cleansings described throughout Southern folk practice. Go Away Evil is one of the plainest of these names: it says exactly what it does.
