Also known as Chewing John, Court Case Root, Thai Ginger, or simply Galangal, this root is a premier herbal remedy widely believed to help win court cases and remove jinxes.
Rootworkers advise their clients to chew a galangal root, retain it in the mouth while praying, swallow the juice, and then spit out the cud to break a jinx, turn the enemy away from harming you, or get a favorable result or verdict in court. This trick is actually an African-American derivation of the Kongo practice of chewing and spitting the root of a plant called "disisa" or "nsanga-lavu" to drive off enemies and evil entities. Interestingly, both disisa and galangal are members of the ginger family.
This protective trick was found in the narratives of former slaves Frederick Douglass of Maryland and author and abolitionist Henry Bibb of Kentucky, who said that he had spat galangal's juice toward his master to prevent punishment.
When doing this, I recommend boiling the root in sugar water first for an hour to soften it up while keeping a brown candle (for a court case) or white candle (for jinx removal) burning in the kitchen. Then, before chewing, dress the root with Court Case oil for a fair trial or Jinx Killer or Uncrossing oil for jinx removal.
Others brew Little John into tea to bathe themselves or rinse the clothes they will use in court hearings or proceedings.
This root is also one of the main ingredients for Q or 'Queer' oil since Little John to Chew is known to attract love and passion in gay men when combined with other John roots; High John the Conqueror and Dixie John.
Herbalists state that, like ginger, the root is a calmative for the digestive system; thus, it is believed to aid one's nervousness, anxiety, and stress and promote one's confidence. This medicinal use is responsible for the root's magical property, allowing one to stand and testify convincingly and authoritatively before the court. To use as a tea, pour 1 cup of boiling water over ½ to 1 teaspoonful of the root. Allow to steep for 4-7 minutes, then strain. Drink 1- 2 cups of tea daily. If desired, add honey and/or lemon to taste.
