-How were you first introduced to Hoodoo, and who taught you?

I walked into a hoodoo candle shop and came back to learn more over the course of weeks, months, and years. The owner and good customers, older women mostly, gave me tips.

-What role did family, community, or region play in shaping ...

Making friends in the Black community!

Hello, Lucius, and welcome to the Lucky Mojo Forum.

I see that we have many interests in common, particularly history. My specialty seems to have become post-Civil-War American hoodoo, with particular reference to popular culture, perfumery, folk magic, and graphic design of the 20th century. I am ...

I’ve had a recent reading on HP that confirmed some suspicions I’ve had about my husband. The reader mentioned that my husband has a secret that’s likely tied to talking sexually to other women. Our call ended before we got to go any further ...

Hi -- We moved your question to the Free Reading Extravaganza and will be replying there LIVE ONLINE.

Thanks to my Patrons, who contribute as little as $8.00 per month for an exclusive one-year sneak-peek behind the scenes, i am able to write a new web page every week on the history of folk magic and divination. In this installment of "Where the Southern Cross the Yellow Dog," we gain wisdom from a ...

LovelyM4ry,

1. No. Disposal, deployment, and dispersal are all reasons to take something to a crossroads, a railroad, a river, or a graveyard.

2. Yes. Positive and negative works alike can be taken for disposal, deployment, and dispersal to a crossroads, a railroad, a river, or a graveyard.

Hi, Aquariusgirl87 --

I admire your desire for evidentiary proof before taking further action. That is wise. There are herbs and spells for clarity of both sight and insight.

Hi, The Mango Witch --

I'm not JayDee, but i will reply to part of what you mentioned -- "using Q to 'queer up' other love formulas."

In past times, most queer people "adapted" rather than expecting a special formula for queer love, For instance, there were perfumes associated with gay men, such ...

LovelyM4ry,

Wrapping the spell remains in paper or cloth and leaving the bundle at a crossroads is a traditional way to end the work by dispersal. Dropping it into a river washes it away, placing it on a railroad track gets it gone, and burying it in a cemetery ends the matter for all time.

The ...

Because if they are family members, the bonds may be strong and it may take time to loosen them without causing a fuss that involves you.

LovelyM4ry --

Messing up the order of actions in a spell is not the worst thing you can do -- but it does show a lack of focus. whether you choose to start over or proceed ahead, just take a lesson from the mishap -- and prepare yourself bettwer next time.

As for the signs you saw with the wax ...

That;s a great idea, The Red Queen. I will talk with ConjureMan about it. He says he will be using Geomancy in his free readings on next week's show.

Double_Evening_2439 --

Thanks for confirming the luck of the Badger Tooth from Austrian and Irish sources. I now wonder if the note i copied out -- "See Pow Wows" -- was perhaps a more general reference to Braucherei -- a word not commonly used in English, and which Anglophone Americans generally ...

You're welcome, DeborahHarris!

Over in the thread on "Spells for Protection From Spiritual Attacks, Demons, Evil Eye, Black Magic Spells" , DeborahHarris asked:

I found the post you mentioned. it was written by Mama Micki, a former mod here in the forum. She did not say it was "a big No No" to combine Reversal with I Can, You Can't, but she cautioned against it, writing:

Dear EdgarFlores --

Florida Water is not my favourite substitution for Hoyt's Cologne. I far prefer 4711 Cologne.

In my opinion, Van Van is not in the same fragrance group -- although this more about traditional usage than it is about fragrance.

Hi, EdgarFlores --

If you are a Catholic, as many in Mexico are, you would probably prefer a Catholic Bible. Because most African-Americans are Protestants, and because the King James Version is the most often cited Protestant Bible, and because it is written in very grand and poetic language, it ...

Yes you can. "The form is not as important as the formula." (That is, is the formula is compounded traditionally.)

A Cat is associated with the Moon and with women. As it was a magical attack, this signifies a woman instigated the magical work against you. The tarot card i would use for protection is the Queen of Wands -- wear gold in the day and silver at night, a lion by day and a black cat by ...
