Description
Hot Foot Powder is a traditional tool often associated with American hoodoo and rootwork. It is predominantly used as a means of driving away unwanted individuals or negative influences from one’s surroundings.
Traditionally, Hot Foot Powder is believed to work by metaphorically creating a “hot path” that compels its target to leave or stay away. Common uses in hoodoo practices involve discreetly sprinkling the powder where the person is likely to walk, such as near their doorstep or pathway, or even subtly applying it to their shoes. This act is thought to ensure that the individual feels an urgent need to relocate, breaking any detrimental connections they might have to the space or situation.
