Abracadabra:
is a mystical word used to magically invoke benevolent spirits for protection against disease. This magical formula may be related to the word 'abraxas', which was found on many amulets during the last years of the Roman Empire and is thought to have originated with the Gnostics or the Egyptians. In any case, abracadabra is just as effective as abraxas or hocus-pocus.
