Please call the shop and talk to Mother Katrina as I don't know what the requirements are with the Facebook criteria.

Wishing you the best

Okay, thank you Miss Aida.

Again, I understand that probably doesn't meet the requirement for Homework #2*, and I understand if that's not enough to meet enrollment either. I promise I will get a current black friend; it's only a matter of time. I mean, I was literally WTF'ing out loud and spluttering as I read about how non-black people simply refuse to do such a simple homework. It's bizarre and pathetic that someone would want to learn the magic of black Americans, which has given them hope and power, without being a friend to them. I'm not making up my feelings for my "image". It was as if I was entering bizarro world as I read their gibbering nonsense why they should be exempt from that requirement. It's even worse because it was originally just a person of another race, and yet the problems only really started when Miss Cat changed made just a simple change to the race in question being black American. WTFH?

Again, thank you for your prompt reply.

Thanks Miss Aida,

I knew I could not get the exactly information in the course, when I said information, I meant titles in general.
any way, I am happy with the respond I got from you. I will call the shop and discuss it to see if I can get enroll in the course in the future.

Greetings to everyone from 1208gypsy in North Carolina, USA. I'm excited to explore this fascinating study. So far, I've surfed around a bit in the discussions enough to see that many practical matters are resolved here. Yay that.

My elementary question is as follows: I have just purchased conjure oils and bath crystals (1 of each) for a) money drawing, and b) block busting. So that's four products in all (oil plus bath crystals for two conditions). Do these satisfy part of the purchase requirement that qualifies a seeker (in part) for eventual student status?

I thought maybe so. I figured money drawing is a basic attraction product, and block busting a basic riddance product. I see the required purchase list is kind of divided along those two important distinctions - attraction on one hand, removal on the other. However, I would benefit from guidance. Set me straight.

Greetings All!

Just wanted to get on here and introduce myself to other prospective students of Cat's Correspondence Course. I've been practicing magic since about 1999. It wasn't until I moved to West Virginia (originally a Jersey girl) that I discovered folk magic, Appalachian healing and traditions(a lot of it is Cherokee and pow wow), herbal remedies, etc.. Ever since then I've been wanting to learn all I can about these ways. So it's great that such a course exists. I know a couple of people who have taken this course and highly recommend it. So here I am, an eager student who is wanting to learn more. I have begun by ordering Cat's book and a few starter supplies and I will supply begin to build up what I need. I think it's a great idea that she is requiring to have materials already in place because that way you have your visuals and hands on experience which makes studying that much easier. I am one of those types who needs visuals to comprehand

Now, I also am familiar with her other requirement which is being aware and knowledgeable about African American culture( I'm white). Growing up in New Jersey where we had so many different types of cultures makes it easy for you know at least a little bit about different cultures. But my main exposure to the African American culture was that my baby sitter was African American. Her son and I were best friends and I was at their house every day for about 4 years.

I remember my mom telling me that Miss Judy (that's what I had to call her or I got in trouble) practiced what my mom called "that ju-ju stuff" but my mom was Ok with that and I was fascinated by it. I would sneak around the corner and watch her do her "ju-ju". She had a full curio cabinet of different herbs and candles and people would come to see her on a regular basis.

Whenever I would ask her questions about it she would just smile at me and say "All in time child"

I forgot about Miss Judy and her "ju-ju" until I moved here to West Virginia and discovered folk magic and learned that Miss Judy's "ju-ju" was actually called Hoodoo. I've read books and have worked with herbs in spells but I'm ready to expand my roots (no pun intended) and learn from who I here is a wonderful teacher!

So here I am! Hopefully a future student!

Trish

Hello gypsy1208!

To answer your question, yes and no. I believe money drawing bath crystals and block buster bath crystals fulfill Cat's requirement. She states that you need one for attracting money or love, (which money drawing bath crystals fulfills) and one for uncrossing (which I believe block buster would fulfill, since it can be compared to a more fiery/fast acting uncrossing product.) However, for the oils, she states she wants one of each for the following categories: love, money, protection, and negative work. Your choice of the money drawing oil fulfills the requirement for a "money" oil, but I don't believe the block buster oil fulfills any of these requirements. It isn't exactly a protection oil, again, its more similar to an uncrossing product. And it certainly isn't an oil for negative work.

I encourage you to take the required purchases list very literally since you are just starting out. If Cat requires you to get a product for protection, go with a "protection" or "fiery wall of protection" product. Have fun with it, but definitely do not overthink it, as it really is not that complicated.

Also, the point of these required purchases is for you to have hands on experience with a wide variety of different lines of product. Cat explicitly states that she does not want you to buy products all from the same line. It does you no good to buy multiple products from the same line, because you aren't getting the knowledge from other product lines that you should have by the time you try to sign up for the course. Try and branch out with your other purchases, and avoid getting products with the same name.

Hope this helps!

Thanks, brian_s -- i could not have said it better myself!

If you are interested in my course, then the next time you order any of the required materials, just add a note in the message area saying that you wish to be marked as a "prospective student." There is no obligation to become a student, but if you mention that, then any items you order from my shop will be check-marked as meeting the course requirements for materials.

On it it talks about the Yahoo group page. That is where I have always seen the grades posted for the assignments.

I seem to be having some trouble getting signed up for the Yahoo group. I signed up for a Yahoo account and applied for membership in the group the day I got my book: March 19th. I waited a little over a week to allow time for whatever behind the scenes processing might be necessary, and when I hadn’t heard anything about my application, I sent an email to nagasiva at forum@luckymojo.com a week ago - on March 29th. I haven’t heard anything back.
I’m assuming that you folks are super busy and I’m trying to be patient, but I also want to make sure that I didn’t do anything wrong when I initially tried to sign up. I'm sorry if this isn't the best place to ask about this, but I thought it would be easier for you than getting a phone call that might pull you away from something else you were doing.
Thanks for your help!

My question is is there a bundle package available? Im not speaking of the books, though I only have the Black Folder and I'm reading that now, but the other long list of products. A bundle package would be helpful.

My two cents...

catherineyronwode · Unread post by **catherineyronwode** » Sun May 10, 2015 7:49 pm

Nope, no bundle, because i want people to actually purchase and USE the materials for at least 4 months before we have our interview call. I don't want "drive-by" students who purchase everything in a bundle and then never finish the program. So easy does it. Buy some things, work with them. Read a couple of books. If you like that, buy some more, read some more, listen to the CD, buy a bit more.... The process is paced naturally to a 4 month duration.

Sophia Moon · Unread post by **Sophia Moon** » Mon May 11, 2015 5:10 am

I should have waited for your response. lol I purchased almost everything but most of it I can use in one way or another. It will take me about 3-4 to read the books because I'm in graduate school as well. Whether I get excepted or not, it's a great package and I'm looking forward to using the products. Thank you for the response.

Here are some general questions:

Where can I learn the foundation of magick?
Sometimes I just think that I am burning candles blindly.

How do I know if a magic is black or white?

Why do only experienced practitioner do spells on new moon?

Why can only dark red candles be used by experienced spellcasters?

JayDee · Unread post by **JayDee** » Thu May 21, 2015 4:59 pm

dppagc,

Learning the foundationg depends on the practice you wish to utilize. Many forms of magic exist and the foundations of them are different based on those traditions. Some commonality may exist or cross over, or a technique learned with one style may help or also be effective with another. LM sells many many books that outline how to do magic. From experience its a lot of trial and error. You need to read how its done, talk with people how its done then do it and adjust and see what does work, what does not and keep growing. their is no this is it step guide. black v white magic can differ based on the type of work you do and how you view magic. Example many Wiccans think any form of magic that influences the will of another is black.. which means virtually all magic is black. Some think only harm spells or spell to hurt or curse a person are black. In hoodoo the concept of karma does not exist, the work is only done if its justified so regardless if its considered black or white, it matters if God says I am justified in the working. I never was told experienced practitioners only work in a new moon, in fact every worker I know works with all moon cycles. I also have never been told only dark can be worked with certain workers. Seems you have some notions of the work based on what you read or were told by someone, thus it is best to ask them to explain and learn what method of work they use. If it is hoodoo, understand customes and tradtions can change based on region, though the basic concepts still exist. If you feel you are burning candles blindly then my guess is you are not connecting with the work. All work based on nature has spirits in them, spirit of the color, the candle, the herbs, the oil blend, the powders, the incense, the people involved, the ancestors, etc..connect with them in the work and you no longer will feel like you are blindly burning candles

Hello Ms. Cat!!!

I have an interview scheduled with you on the 7th of July. I don't have facebook because I want to avoid all the internet drama out there. I obviously won't be able to befriend you on facebook then. Is that ok? I have google plus and befriended you on there at least.

I've been in the Navy for just under nine years now and have made great friends of all colors to include black people.Being in the Navy has exposed me to so much culturally. I went to my job school with one person who is black and he is from New Orleans and knows something as some people say. Him and I had a great conversation about the work with a black man we were working with one time and I gained a lot from it. I also have a friend from work who is from Georgia who is black and is aware at least of some things, too.

My point is that I'd hate to not be able to take your course and learn from you because of me not having facebook. If I can't, I'll be ok with that

Thank you for your time and all that you have done

Hello Miss Cat,

I have been interested in your correspondence course for quite some time. I have looked over the required ingredients and the orders I have placed in your shop, to see what matched the qualifications. Although, I'm having a hard time deciphering a few things.

I have purchased "Steady Work" Oil and Powder in the past, would that fall under the "Money" category of required oils/powders? Or will i have to purchase an oil specifically related to money?

Secondly, I have recently purchased a Fiery Wall of Protection Spellkit. I see that you do require a few "protection" items for the Course. This kit comes with Oil and Powder and I'm sure that I wont use it all in the completion of the Spell. Will I need to purchase other protection items for the course? Or will the oil from the kit count towards it?

Miss Athena · Unread post by **Miss Athena** » Mon Jun 22, 2015 11:18 pm

Hi lucky7clover,

The course is fantastic, you will love it!

As for your purchases, you may need another Money product to go with your Steady Work purchases, Also, I don't believe the individual components of a spell kit will qualify, but that is only a guess. Your best bet is to contact the shop, they will review your past purchases and advise you on what else you need to buy to qualify.

Good luck!

I have been slowly (as money allows) gathering the items required required for the correspondence course. Periodically I check the correspondence course page. I saw something that I hadn't noticed before. It requires us to be friends with Cat on Facebook. But I don't have a facebook. My husband and I decided a long time ago that our lives were a lot better without it, and we have found this to be true (for us anyway). Does not having Facebook mean I can't take the correspondence course?

That's great! Thank you for letting me know

the only non-oil/ etc things I need are the CDs and name paper book. I normally make my own oils and stuff, so I'll probably have to buy everything on the order list. The upside to that is it will definitely take a lot of the time out of working, not having to gather/make everything from scratch.

I just ordered some herbs/ etc for some work, I ended up having to send a cashier's check because the system wouldn't take my card for some reason. Hopefully the card thing we'll work itself out. It was very weird to mail a check to pay for something lol

Good evening,

I am working toward eventually taking Ms. Cat's correspondence course, though I feel it is not yet time. My first thought when I read the list of required purchases was $$$. ... money I don't have. At the same time, the requirements made sense to me. I recently posted a question in another section of the forum regarding eliminating blockages and the suggestions were appreciated and helpful. I feel as though I need to take the advice provided there before I pursue the course. There are some other workings I want to do as well. Those will fulfill some of the required purchases. In studying the list of oil, incense, powders and bath crystals, I notice that each product is in each category. This caused me to click on page after page searching for answers as to why. Is there a preferred method in Hoodoo for certain intents? For instance, I recently purchased Hot Foot powder because the powder made sense to me. Without the knowledge that I want to have of the traditions of Hoodoo, I would likely choose bath crystals for cleansing, purging myself and oils for candle work. Then I thought well but then you have this situation or that intent and where would that fit in that scenario? So more questions and more research, and the more I learn the less I know and the more I want to learn. So. In Hoodoo, are oils preferred (or incense or bath crystals or powders) for certain types of workings? Does Love me prefer to be used as an oil? Does Banishing prefer to be used as a powder? Or do these decisions tend to be made according to the individual circumstance, or combination of workings within a working? My research is far from complete and I am still reading and still exploring the pages and reading my recently acquired HHRM.

Hello, Sapphyre,

I have split, moved and merged your post to the appropriate subforum. Please be mindful of where you post your questions.

Miss cat has a list of what is required. So, if she asks for certain oils, then you buy those oils.

And the same for each category.

So, (as an example), she says t buy a negative oil, you can choose from the negative ones (hotfoot, crossing, etc). Then, a positive one would be for: love healing, etc.

She is very specific. Why? Because she wants you to have a well rounded experience with hoodoo practices. Each chapter will cover something that you can use and work with.

So, just follow her purchase guidelines. You cannot altar what she asks for. So, if she asks for oils, then you purchase the oils. If she asks for powders, then you purchase those powders. And so on.

Wishing you the best in your course.

You will love it !
