	As with many curses this ritual often involves a recitation.of the grievances against the target; sometimes flames are lit at the start of the ritual and extinguished, one by one, to represent the weakening of the target's spirit and body.

The rune [[Kyrop]] is often evoked, symbolising the weakness of old age that the curse will bring, and the runes [[Irremais]] or [[Verys]] may be defaced or destroyed to represent the loss of wisdom and strength. The constellation of [[the Drowned Man]] may also be invoked; after all this ritual represents a harsh reminder of the inevitability of death for many ritualists.
