Spell-Casting for Gambling Luck Lottery Races Poker Bingo Slots Dice Raffles

On the topic of lottery and gambling analysis and prediction: I once
bought a computer program that analyzed past lotto results in detail.
Not just numbers that came up more often, but numbers that tended to
occur together, etc. I made a little money (profit over what I spent)
using that system ...

Re: Hoodoo Bibliography and Book Suggestions for African American Folk Magic

Re Malbrough's insistnece on using an iron pot:

Using a cast iron pot - that reminds me of several decidedly non-hoodoo
concepts. The idea that a little bit of metal gets into fluids - might
he be trying to make a fluid condenser? But then, why iron? Gold would
be more like it. Or just the idea ...

Spell-Casting for Job Promotion Pay Raise Back Pay Transfer

Let's say someone gets a job solving a tough problem in a tough place,
and does splendidly in it. So splendidly that there is no one else who
could or even wants to try taking their place. The job incumbent has
become indispensable - which means unpromotable, because they're
critical where they are ...

Re: Hoodoo Bibliography and Book Suggestions for African American Folk Magic

I'll let people know what I've got when I sort out more after next
week's yard sale. I also wound up re-buying a book I gave out once: Dale
Morgan's The Great Salt Lake. Him and Stegner are non-occult faves of
mine.

'ancient tobacco" Nicotiana rustica L. and how they would 'remake'
tobacco by a special process of cultivation and curing. There are also
many poetic spells and ...

The Silver Ravenwolf Question

I went to the site

http://www.silverravenwolf.com

and saw this: "Hoodoo and Hexerie Practitioner" -- was this claim always made by her? And whose picture is that woman on the site on several pages? -- it's not her.
