Witches survivors of sexual assault hexed Stanford Rapist
Quote:
On Tuesday night, women around the world cast spells against the Stanford swimmer who raped an unconscious woman on a sidewalk.
The event was organized by Melanie Elizabeth Hexen, a midwife and belly-dance instructor who lives near Wilton, Iowa. She said she and her local coven, made up of 13 women, were inspired to create the event after feeling "outraged and helpless" over Turner's short sentence. Hexen made a Facebook event to allow others who wanted to take action to join in on the mass hex, and within 12 hours more than 600 people had RSVPed.
Hexen said many of the witches who participated on Tuesday were survivors of sexual assault themselves. They posted their own experiences in the Facebook event, sharing support for one another and making their hexes more potent.
At 10 PM Central Time, the virtual event officially began, with witches around the world hexing Turner in their own homes and sharing photos of altars and descriptions of their ceremonies on the Facebook page. Most hexes focused on impotence and causing Turner physical pain.
A sample ritual Hexen posted to the group suggested using a black candle and a photo or representation of Turner, wrapping it with a string, and chanting the following hex: "In the most holy name of Hecate, the Goddess of Life and Death, She who holds the key to the underworld, let this rapist meet justice. Let him be destroyed."
Hexen then suggests repeating this three times:
"Brock Allen Turner we hex you.
You will be impotent
You will know constant pain of pine needles in your guts
Food will bring you no sustenance
In water, your lungs will fail you
Sleep will only bring nightmares
Shame will be your mantle.
You will meet justice.
My witchcraft is strong. Our witchcraft is powerful. The spell will work. So Mote it be."
Witches participated from various regions of the US as well as internationally, hexing in from countries such as Peru and Uruguay, and the ceremonies varied widely by person and practice. Some women anointed their candles in urine or menstrual blood, and many incorporated sulphur or salt circles. While most targeted Turner directly, others included the judge who sentenced him as well as his father for defending his son's actions. Others tackled broader issues like the "destruction of rape culture," as one witch described her spell.
