Re: Crossroads and Crossroads Ritual: Questions and Answers

I feel silly that after posting this I found the Lucky Mojo article on the crossroads, with lots of helpful info. However, I would still welcome any additional info you feel is important or relevant.

Re: Crossroads and Crossroads Ritual: Questions and Answers

In my admittedly amateur studies of Hoodoo (and African-American folklore generally) I have come across the importance of the crossroads, and of a mysterious figure who can be encountered there, sometimes called "The Black Man," or "The Dark Man," or sometimes, bluntly, "The Devil." Of course, cross...

Re: Can anyone recommend some good scent incense?

I love the Abra Melin. It is very sweet and "mystical." I love to burn some of it when I'm prayng or meditating.

Re: Blending Two or More Lucky Mojo Oils: Questions and Answers

Since the Abra Melin oil is the same formula as the Holy Annointing Oil in the Hebrew Bible, I use it (and the incense or powder) anytime I want to just bless or express gratitude. I recently found that adding a touch of the oil or powder to other workings gave it a noticeable "boost." I like the id...

Abramelin Oil Questions and Answers

Just got an order of Abramelin in oil, incense, and powder. I was really drawn to this formula when I read that is based on the Jewish holy oil described in the Bible. I used already used the incense for trance work, and the effect was amazing! I'm writing for any suggestions of other ways I can use...

Re: Spell-Casting for Luck in Lottery Play

I've read the articles on these, but would love some personal a...

Seeing that La Sirene appeals to you, and you've seen the mermaid, the very least doing some formal work with Her may be in order.

Re: Dream Books and Work-Out Books for Lottery and Policy Betting

So I bought Aunt Sally's Policy Player Dream Book from LM, as well as the Aunt Sally's Lucky Dream oil. I mostly bought the book for fun, but can't help but try it out for real. I welcome recommendations on how best to use the book, especially with the oil. I read the LM article on Aunt Sally, but w...

Re: Deities, Angels, Spirits, Saints: Questions about Techniques

Thank you for the clarification. I can appreciate the difference between believing all things have a spirit, and personifieing those same spirits into "beings".

Re: Deities, Angels, Spirits, Saints: Questions about Techniques

I know that Hoodoo is primarily Christian in its overall theology, but I've been reading the various articles on LM about good luck Gods and Saints, and the spirits of the dead,so it got me wondering: is there within Hoodoo any recognition of nature spirits, such as the Faeries, Dryads, Gnomes, etc....

Re: Hoodoo and Religion: Voodoo Wicca Santeria Witchcraft Christianity Atheism

I'm only beginning my formal journey into Hoodoo, so I can't address that, but I do have some experience with Shiva, and that I would like to share. Shiva is said by some to be the God of destruction, who consumes what is dead at the end of time so that the new world may be born. If things are as ba...

A little bit of my own story, if it helps. I'm gay, and I have seen the young, teenage gays who have made really BAD sexual decisions, and the ones who learned to behave in a healthy way. The ones who went along with the crowd, screwed up in school, and were sexually irresponsible were ALWAYS the on...

Re: Goofer Dust Questions and Answers

Thank you everyone for the responses. Based on your advice, and further personal meditation, I am not going to use the Goofer Dust in the protective work I'm planning. There is some Goofer Dust coming in my LM order, but I'll save it for when its needed for the work it was designed for.
Blessings! :)

Re: Goofer Dust Questions and Answers

A question on Goofer Dust. I know that this is a substance with primarily harmful uses (hence its name, "Killing Dust"), but can it be used for protection or other benevolent purposes? I ask this because so many jinxing substances can also be used for protection or hex-breaking, including many of th...

I don't know all the details, so feel free to disregard this advice if it doesn't apply.

We grew up in a very closed-off and ultra-conservative West Virginia church, and were both kinda odd so we bonded. In fact, we ended up as b...
