Hello from SC
Posted: Sun Oct 11, 2015 10:41 am
I've been taking advantage of all the great info on these forums for so long that I figured it was about time I made an account.
I live in lovely Charleston SC and like a lot of you have been meddling with some form of magic most of my life. My father's side are Italian Catholics and my mother's are Scottish Freemasons. As a kid I collected bones and stones and read fortunes with playing cards, and had a general inclination toward the occult. Over the years I went through the gauntlet of topics, picking up tech here and there, but I don't claim any specific affiliation. I use what works, and I've had a ton of success doing so. In my experience simple and heartfelt is best, which is probably why I enjoy Hoodoo and Conjure so much.
When I first moved to the South I took up with a roommate. This forced me to strip down my magical practice to the bare bones. Maybe it was the flavor of my surroundings, but when the dust settled I realized that what I was doing, was Conjure. Small candles, simple ingredients, oils and bathing practices, prayer, and a new found affinity for Saints. It was simple, powerful, and reminded me of how magic felt when I was a kid.
My hardcore patron is Mercury/Hermes and that's not going to change. Nothing beats having a direct line to the guy with the direct line. I love him. In addition, I've been working with Saint Expedite and having lots of success. He's fast and so spot on, usually coming through in three days and with scary accuracy. (Praise!) And most recently I erected a small altar to Saint Martha which I am very hopeful about having always been drawn to her image(s) without realizing who she was.
Anyways, that's me. Thanks for being such an amazing source of information! Hoping to become a helpful contributor in time.
