Traditional Uses

Abre Camino is called upon for strength, power, protection, and domination work. It is used to remove hexes and curses, break the Evil Eye, drive out evil spirits, and clear crossed conditions. It is also worked for good luck, money drawing, attracting clients, winning court cases, and breaking through obstacles that stand in the way of forward movement.

How to Prepare a Spiritual Bath or Floor Wash

• Bring a pot of water to a boil and pray over it — call your ancestors, Esu, or Eleguá to purify the water and assist in the work. Ask for cleansing of the home and body, removal of negative energy, hexes, and evil, and the opening of doors to opportunity, love, and prosperity.
• Remove from heat and allow to cool for 10 minutes, then add the herbs. Light a white candle. Work the herbs through the water with your fingers while continuing to pray — speak plainly to your ancestors and guides about what you need. Once cooled, strain out the herbs. Add Florida Water, cascarilla, or a splash of rum if desired; you may also blow tobacco smoke into the mixture as you pray.
• For a floor wash, mix the strained liquid into a bucket of water and cleanse your home from back to front, ending at the front door. You can divide the mixture into three portions and work it over three days for a deeper cleanse during periods of spiritual warfare.
• Mark the door frame with a cascarilla cross after cleansing to prevent negative energy from returning. Discard all used water toward the street when finished.
• For a spiritual bath, add the strained liquid to your bathwater. After bathing and once the water drains, stomp the drain three times and declare: Evil be gone! It is done!
