Agni Purana (Jyotisha Selections) · by Vyasa
Chapter 3 · Name Letters and Chakras
युद्धजयार्णवः (चक्राणि)
पिच्छिकां तु प्रवक्ष्यामि मन्त्रसाधनजां क्रियाम् ॥ २६ ॥
In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 133, verse 26.
I will tell about the pichchhika (feather whisk), a rite that comes from practising a spell.
Simple meaning: Now comes a rite with a feather whisk, done with a spell.
अमुं(स्य) चन्द्रग्रहणे तु जपं कृत्वा तु पिच्छिकाम् ।
At a lunar eclipse, chant over the feather whisk. It makes the enemy army reel in fear.
ध्यानाद्रवान्मर्दयेच्च सिंहारूढो मृगाविकान् ।
Meditate as a lion-rider who crushes weak foes. Next comes breaking an army by sound from afar.
मातॄणां चरुकं दद्यात्कालरात्र्या विशेषतः ।
Offer cooked food to the Mothers, mainly Kalaratri, mixed with ash, jasmine and cotton root.
