Exorcism Ritual

Mel performing the ritual on the Harbinger

**The Exorcism Ritual** was a ritual that was created by Marisol Vera who had prophesized that her daughters (the Vera-Vaughn Charmed Ones) would need it in order to save the life of Angela Wu, an innocent who had been possessed by the Harbinger of Hell.

## Overview

Due to her power of prophecy, Marisol knew that her daughters would need this ritual to free Angela Wu from the Harbinger of Hell. Using Santería, which was unsanctioned by the Elders, Marisol crafted this ritual and hid it with an enchantment so it only would appear when the sisters were together.

## Trivia

* The Harbinger and the Charmed Ones are written in lowercase for some reason throughout the entry.
* As the Book of Shadows entry suggests, the enchanted vessel within which the Harbinger is trapped can only be opened by the person who put it there. Charity Callahan was the one seen to hold the tin-can when the Harbinger was exorcised, meaning that Charity was the only being who could open it, thus it is unknown how Hunter Caine managed to absorb the Harbinger when they were in Tartarus. However, it can be presumed that the Harbinger was placed in him by Charity and his father during or after his release from Tartarus.
* This is the first spell/ritual in the show that is chanted in Spanish. It also calls upon Babalú-Ayé, an Orisha (spirit and goddess) of the Yoruba religion.
* The beginning of the incantation has a Latin verse which Mel had used previously when casting the Calling of Lost Souls spell.
	+ This part was not cast on-screen. Perhaps, it was decided to be removed from the spell and added to the Calling of Lost Souls after the page in the Book of Shadows were already made.
