The Powwow Guy

Powwow charms are all spoken in the name of the Holy Trinity as found within Christian tradition. 

In all of our early grimoires, we see this instruction as far back as the late medeival Catholic church in England. Cunning folk were unquestionably Christian according to the grimoires we have from the 1400's to the 1800's.

The three crosses were a universal understanding placed at the end of each charm or ritual to mean "in the name of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost."

This instruction still remains here in Pennsylvania within the Pennsylvania Dutch tradition of Powwow.
