Coconuts are the drupe or fruit of the Coconut Palm tree. In hoodoo/rootwork/conjure, coconuts are used in domination work and in work where the practitioner wishes to influence or control the mind of the person being worked on. Whole coconuts are used in these works as they represent the head of the target person.
Coconut oil also has domination properties and is excellent to use as a base for domination-type condition oils.
Unfortunately about ten years or so ago I noticed that most grocery stores were selling smaller and smaller coconuts. These smaller coconuts are usually light tan and do not possess much, if any, coconut hair. I was recently at a grocery store and the coconuts offered for sale were literally the size of a softball. I'm not sure what is going on but this trend is upsetting to me. I much prefer the larger coconuts, the ones covered in coconut hair, as they more aptly resemble a human head in size and characteristics.
Note: When workers use coconuts in their practice they are not working with Papa Legba, Eshu, Ellegua, or with any other Loa, Orisha, or spirit from any African Traditional Religion. Instead, the coconut is used to represent the head and mind of the person being worked on.

Often associated with the month of February, Primroses attract fairies to the garden. To invite the fairy folk to visit and to get fairy blessings hang a spray of primroses on your door. Eating primroses is said to help you see fairies. In Ireland and Wales primroses were thought to be fairy flowers that could give the power of invisibility.Celtic lore says rubbing primrose flowers over your eyelids can give you a way into the fairy world.
If you grow primroses in your garden, take very good care of them. Unhealthy primroses upset the fairies and it is not recommended to have cross fairies. If kept indoors, Primroses are said to bring sickness and sorrow, perhaps this is because they generally do not grow well indoors and upset the fairies.
Primrose is used magically as a symbol to meditate upon to draw protection and love, Oil of primrose has been used to cleanse and purify in the Druidic tradition. This wildflower is also used to symbolize the beloved guest.
The pendant flowers of the cowslip, "Primula veris", were sometimes called "Key Flower" in England because they were thought to resemble a hanging bunch of keys. The association with keys may also have led to another common name, "Herb Peter," because the symbol of St. Peter is a bunch of keys.
According to this "language," primrose symbolize youth or young love, or mean "I can't live without you." Lilac-tinted primroses signify confidence and red primroses symbolize unappreciated merit.
The flowers of some primroses, especially "Primula vulgaris", are edible. They can be eaten raw in salads or as an edible garnish, and can also be made into conserves (preserves). "P. vulgaris" flowers can be combined with yeast and sugar and fermented into wine.
In traditional herbal medicine, cowslip wine, made from "P. veris", was used as a sedative. When the flowers were boiled with sugar to make a syrup, the concoction was used to treat palsy as well as nervousness. The juice of the flowers, either used alone or combined with other ingredients into an ointment, was supposed to be effective at treating facial spots and wrinkles.
