The mojo is dead, and perhaps your rootworker can try to revive it, but personally, I would consider it dead. I am not sure what your rootworker means by reworked, but that is something you need to discuss with them.

Transformer · Unread post by **Transformer** » Mon Dec 20, 2010 11:05 am

oh, yup, he and I agreed it's totally dead but he told me to send it back to him and that he would, in his words, "re-work it." I was so grateful to him that I didn't want to ask too many questions. I just took that to mean that he is going to bring it back to life, so to speak. Pray over it, smoke it, anoint it. Honestly, I'm not sure how it's done but he said he would take care of it.

So my question starts at the point after resurrection. After he does his thing, will it be as if this never happened? thanks

Stars, you wrote, "I am not sure what your rootworker means by reworked." Since you are a student of mine, i would like to point you to lesson 52, page 418 of your course book, where you will learn the procedure that a professional conjure doctor uses in renewing and reworking a mojo hand.

Babybio, to renew or rework a hand means that the practitioner will revive and refresh the hand and bring it back to life. It will then be "as good as new."

The Nation Sack is the only mojo that I am personally aware of that is killed just by others seeing it (and with the Nation Sack I'm pretty sure it's the TARGET seeing it that will kill it, I don't know about other people in general). Otherwise it's being TOUCHED by someone other than the owner or maker that kills it, not just being seen.

So...you're fine there. If you're very worried you can do a yes/no divination, or have an AIRR worker do that for you on the "health" of your mojo.

A hand is good as long as it is well-maintained, unless it was made for one very specific goal. If your mojo's work is done, then bury it respectfully in your yard.

I am moving this post into the mojo bag thread, which you may wish to read through as all these questions and many more are addressed within it.

I have a question regarding the touching of another's mojo bag. If you have a mojo bag made for you from another person that means you would be the second person touching the bag the person that made it for you is the first so my question is. If I touched my girlfriends bag or actually brushed up against it is it still working? I found that many say that one cannot touch anothers but the question came up above. Thanks again for any help.

starsinthesky7 · Unread post by **starsinthesky7** » Fri Jan 28, 2011 1:34 pm

You asked this question before, and it was responded to. You need to get some divination done, and see if it is still working. There may be a chance the mojo bag can be reworked.

The reason I had asked this question is that we went to the lady that made it and she said that my gf does not need to have another bag made. What I read on this forum and elswhere is that if touched that one would need a new bag made. Just alittle confusing. Thanks this forum is very good just would like to be sure.

ConjureMan Ali · Unread post by **ConjureMan Ali** » Fri Jan 28, 2011 10:22 pm

Your rootworker makes the bag for you yes, but if anyone other than you touches the bag then it usually kills the bag. The historical reason goes all the way back to slavery and hiding it from the master. The spiritual reason is because the mojo hand is more intimately tied to you than any other work.

Think about it, when you make a luck hand, it isn't just some talisman, it is a living spirit--it is your luck. Would you want someone touching your luck? When you make a love hand it isn't just a love talisman, it the spirit that embodies all you want in your love.

So the spirit of the mojo hand is so deeply tied to your own spirit and your desires that you keep it hidden and safe.

Miss Ida Lundin · Unread post by **Miss Ida Lundin** » Sat Jan 29, 2011 2:29 am

If the Rootworker who has made the mojo tells you that it is alive and doesn't need to be remade then I would trust their judgment if I were you. If you didn't trust their work you should see another worker. We don't know what traditions your worker works in. We don't know the situation in which it was touched, and you stated that you didn't actually handle the bag, but brushed up against it. We don't know that bag the way your rootworker does. I can tell if a bag is dead or not and she probably can too. Some might use a pendulum to check it. This has been described many times in the forum so just check around if you want to read about it. That way she can learn how to check for herself that the bag is alive. Or she can get a 10 minute reading from a reader at AIRR to check if the mojo is dead.

From what I've read on the forums, it's okay to have a mojo serve double purpose and I find that the roots and herbs for this are often used for both purposes. My partner has had a long streak of bad luck, some of it probably his own doing and I also feel like he's been had some tricks laid on him, just not sure by whom. Anyhow, I'm putting together a hand that's comprised of the following: Devil's Shoestring (9 pieces wrapped with white thread that has 9 knots in it), High John whole root, and a bluing ball. The herbs I'm adding are rue and agrimony for the uncrossing done by others and hyssop for his own sins. Do I need to add a personal concern? I also read of an old-time method where one took a bit of whiskey in their mouth, recited a Psalm (51st seems right in this case) and then spit that on or in the bag to fix it. And I'm also dressing it with LM 'Fiery Wall of Protection oil. Anything I'm forgetting? This is my first hand and I'd like for it to work out well. We need a serious change of luck here. I've just started doing rootwork and have had some great success so far with honey jars, a protection wash of the house, and using the Peaceful Home spell kit.

This sounds like a good mojo hand. A few comments, though:

You're right about the hyssop. Put some Eucalyptus in there, too, and some herbs for wisdom, courage, and clear thinking.

Do I need to add a personal concern?

That's always a good idea if you have the opportunity.

Thanks for the feedback, that does help - I can easily get the personal concerns. I added hyssop, rue and agrimony since I had them on hand. I'll add the personal concerns tonight and fix the hand with whiskey and Fiery Wall of Protection oil.

I'm working myself up to doing the coursework. I'm still trying to absorb as much as I can on the forums, HHRM, and actually do some of the work before I apply.

The recitation with a mouthful of whiskey is from an old eye-witness account on Southern-Spirits.com - the actual story is about half-way down the page, where it says he was reciting an old Celtic-Scottish prayer...

Update - He left the mojo laying on the couch and the dog ate it, literally - chewed a hole in the flannel and ate everything but the bluing ball from what I can tell. i checked and the herbs seem relatively harmless though they got puked up rather rapidly. The High John root is listed as purgative and a laxative, but that didn't seem to be a major problem.

I didn't take this as a very good sign, but I buried the remnants of mojo hand #1 in the yard and set about making the new mojo which seems to be doing the job just fine.

Okay, I have an odd variation on the "don't touch the mojo" thing. I made a mojo for my partner and it seemed to be alive and doing its job just fine. Things were noticeably turning around. Then yesterday I happened to pick up a pair of his jeans and put my hand in the pocket to pull whatever was in there out. I immediately knew that I had touched the mojo with my fingertip. I didn't pull it out or anything, but my quandary is whether I am exempt from the no-touch rule since I created it, or if after the mojo hand was fixed and passed on to it's new owner I had to remain hands off... I made him feed it again to try to revive it and if that doesn't seem to work, then I'll have to do some divination on it to see if it's really still alive. Is pendulum best for that? Thanks for any feedback or reference to another post.

This topic is always interesting to me, as some mojos like nation sacks cat mentions via hyatt as being shared by women to women with no killing, and blues song of ppl seeing the mojo on em while playing , no killing. yet we try to figure out to what degree we must keep safe and prevent killing our own. Generally I keep mine hidden, their was a few close call sees but in general iv never had seeing one kill it then again most ppl around me are completely ignorant to it as well. touching it I prevent anyone.. one poster asked if another rubs on you, no its fine. above poster im not sure, you really touched it, I think you are on the write track to read it and find out.. generally when I killed a mojo I can tell, i just dont feel anything with it when I hold it anymore. If thats the case burry it properly and prepair another. as for ur case id ask the partner to spend some time with it and see if it feels right.

Way back I ordered a mojo hand or bag from LMC for luck. I did not read the instructions at all and just put it in my pocket. Now I realized that the intructions are so important after the damege has been done. The most stupid thing I ever done was to open my mojo bag and separate all the contends inside of it. My motive is to see everything inside and to experiment each individual items since I didn't have the patience and give it some time to manifest it's power. I even said that this was just bull- s%*#t at one point. Ever since I did that, I have been experiencing bad luck big time. Could the cause of my bad luck is by disrespecting my mojo bag? But of course I regret what I've done and entend to be carefull from now on. Now that I've grown up and have figure the consequenses of my stupidness, could I order another mojo bag from one of the reputable AIRR Roatworker? But of course be more careful from now on and askes a lot of questions plus read the instructions. I have learned so much in this forum.

The mojo bag didnt cause your bad luck either. If you already had bad luck to begin with then the mojo bag didnt work and/or you didnt work it properly.

So you need to do some uncrossing work as well as getting a reading to see what could be the cause of your bad luck.

Ask your rootworker if they can possibly revive your bag...if not you will have to get another one.

If it's been several years since they were fixed, then they are very likely dead and will need to be disposed of. Mojo bags need to be fed and worked regularly in order to keep working strongly. Since they are alive, if they are not fed, they will die.

You can do a divination on them to find out if there is any chance of saving them, but after several years I would say it is unlikely.

Hi I followed the directions on the bag with devil's shoe string in it, that came with my uncrossing kit.

1) The bag is a little too small (I finally found a red flannel one....not sure why that specific material and color is used.....) some of the twigs are sticking out. should I cut them or.....I suppose it has to be nine of them?

2) Also, is there anything else I can or should put in the bag?

3) Where should I carry it....should I have it on me somewhere or somewhere in my bag?

4) Finally....it says red flannel for protection and green for money. If it's in red will it bring protection only? I've never used this before.....thanks for any feedback. I need protection badly.

You might want to put the whole current bag into a new bag and sew it really well so that it doesn't tear any further. Your bag will probably appreciate being fed and dressed again in the new bag.

How old is this mojo, if I may ask? If it is new and working well, I'd advocate neatly mending the bag or putting the whole bag into a new flannel bag, then smoke and dress it well. If it has torn because it is old and worn out, you ought to consider having it remade, especially since you state you are in need of strong protection.

Good luck.

Some mojo bags are supposed to be worn or carried in a certain way -- a Jack Ball under the right armpit, for instance, or a Nation Sack under your skirt, near your lady parts.

For most mojo bags, though, there aren't such particular instructions. There are some general principles, though:

Wake it by smoking it with incense or warming it over a candle flame;
Feed it regularly with a smidgen of the appropriate oil;
DON'T open it!
DON'T let your pets play with it or let it go through the washing machine!

Many people believe you should not let anyone else see or touch your mojo; others aren't so cautious. I'm even more cautious than that -- I prefer not to let anyone know whether I own any mojo bags or not.

All this is prelude. I don't see a problem with snipping the ends off the twigs if they are too long for the bag. If you are trying to uncross your money luck or protect your money, Devil's Shoe String is a great thing to have in a mojo bag. It's used to attract good customers while keeping the bad ones away. By all means add other protective/prosperity herbs and roots -- patchouli and dragon's blood, for instance -- as well as things that are more restricted to prosperity work, such as lodestone and pyrite.

Hope this helps,

Miss Michaele
