Help needed! Disposing of 'Corpse Water'.

[pollymere]

So I found an old drinks bottle in my DC room labelled "Corpse Water". Apparently they filled it from a puddle in the local cemetery. It is likely that it HAS been through graves, both consecrated and unconsecrated.

They don't live at home anymore and I want to dispose of it because whether it's genuine or not, I want to be rid of it and destroy it.

I know it can be used in black magic and I genuinely don't know whether DC was attempting anything. I don't feel comfortable just binning it because I feel that would be dabbling with things beyond my understanding.

If anyone has advice on the correct way to dispose of it, please advise. I am able the visit the Cemetery it came from and have access to crucifix, Bible and Holy Water. I also have certain "gifts".

Water falling on a hillside will be absorbed by the soil: it won’t flow “through” graves then out again into a puddle at the bottom. Puddles at the bottom of a hill will be surface water run-off — just ordinary rain.

OP just pour it back into the cemetery grass if you are really worried about it, then rinse and dispose of the bottle the usual way.

Faking respect for Delusional thinking is actually detrimental to mental health. Mental health is firmly tethered to the material world. Being lightly roasted on mumsnet is an invitation to keep sane and grounded, despite reading goodness knows what stuff on the internet. Hth.

I also have certain "gifts". 😂

Do those ‘gifts’ extend to common sense? No wonder your child has similar nonsense going on. Tip it down the sink and stop being a twit.

@Tiredofwhataboutery Children are delightfully bonkers.

I love delightfully bonkers. 😃

This. Rain doesn’t fall on a hill, sink into it at least 6 feet and run out the bottom as a puddle.

FFS.

Springs emerge from the ground at the foot of hills and higher ground, and the water from them becomes small streams.

Rivers are filled with the run-off from the land on which rain has fallen, and collected by ditches, streams and so on (including from springs as above), which join up and get bigger as they travel towards the sea. They all flow downhill, funnily enough.

Cemeteries and burial grounds are sited in such a way that any - er - seepage does not make its way up to ground level or into water courses.

Water does not flow uphill.

hth

Just imagining what my priest friends would say if I presented them with that!!

Any priest I know would be primarily concerned for the MH of the adult who showed up at their door with a bottle of puddle water that they believed was too dangerous to pour down the drain because it would 'be dabbling with things beyond my understanding'.

Not all rivers are formed like that. Other rives rise through the ground. Chalk streams, for instance. Every river does not depend on rainfall to exist!

And yes, sometimes seepage happens in cemeteries.

Anyway, OP, as PPs have said, the water we use has been through many manifestations. Just pour it into a gutter and chuch the bottle out.

@HungryWaterYes I think so. Although with one of them, it would only be after he stopped laughing.

1. All water on Earth has been through more than several bodies, human included, dead and alive.
2. What are these "properties"?
3. If you only wanted 'great advice', why did you seek it out on MN, of all places. This site has many issues, but it is full of logical, intelligent, funny women, capable of critical thinking and occasional ridicule, which is sometimes called for so long as it's done without malice.

If you want to be pandered to, don't turn to MN.

Poor onto gardens. This is what we do with excess consecrated wine if nobody willing to finish and not suitable for storing, returning to the earth

Most open water courses will have been through a rotting dead sheep or two and a thousand dead frogs, fish, rat and duck corpses.

My gran used to delight in telling us kids that - “your the 10th person to drink that” as we filled our glass at the sink😂

There's lots of things used in necromancy. People for starters...

Just flush it down the bloody toilet.

And I opened this thread thinking it was going to be about water cremation, not puddle water🙄

Because water molecules just basically hang around on Earth evaporating, raining back down and being drunk by things; any glass of water you drink will contain actual molecules that were once drunk by a dinosaur. Kind of mind blowing!

I hope this is a wind up.
If it's not, get some help urgently and I don't mean regarding the disposal of the "corpse water". That can be tipped down the sink.

It's really weird because that's EXACTLY what you should see... The Catholic woman who found a bottle filled with water from a local Cemetery.

Sort of, yes.
If I have something important coming up, I might do something based around confidence, or visualise a positive outcome. It just gets me in the right headspace.

I have to confess that I do worry about the crossover between the natural spring water we get in our taps and the run off from the Cemetery...

A Spa town once famously started seeing people getting sick because it turned out the spring had diverted and was running through the graveyard. The same people built this cemetery...

...and the blackberries and damsons look amazing...

Even if it was proven to be filled with the fetid juices from a thousand corpses (unlikely), I’d have no compunction about pouring it down the sink 😂

Just tip it down the drain.

Like all the “potions” mine ever made.

Get some holy water from the font in the church, add it to the "corpse water" and sprinkle it out in the consecrated church grounds. Bless you.

I dabble in the black arts.

You must wait until there is a full moon and at five past midnight you must go outside naked and carry feathers, a feather duster will do and with one hand waving the feather duster and the other hand gently pouring the corpse water onto the ground as you spin round three times anti clockwise uttering these words -

‘Oh dead! Oh dead! Oh dead! Stay in your realm and never show thy self!’

Leave the bottle in the circle and go back home.

In the morning after sunrise you can collect the empty bottle and dispose of it but you must leave an offering in its place such as a Kit Kat or a Penguin. Do this for 12 days and then stop and your debt to the underworld has been paid.
