Lucky Mojo Forum

Hi there!

My name is Leesa, but I answer to my screen name also (in real life sometimes...). I converted to Wicca around 25 years ago, wandered through some paths and have settled on being a druid. I've led our local congregation, and been active in leadership in our international order, where I am enrolled in an initiatory path of course work.

I've always been enthralled with various forms of folk magic (as opposed to ceremonial magic, although that's cool too....). I'd define myself as a kitchen witch; I'm particular drawn to candle magic (hence the nickname).

In mundane land, I teach sociology, criminology, and the odd anthropology course at a liberal arts college. I'm married and my husband runs a metaphysical shop. We have two cats (Spooky and Stormy), and we are working through the process of adoption.

I'm uh...not sure what else Ask away if you're curious

Hello, FireWoman!

And we are looking forward to seeing you on the forum.
If you ever have any questions, we are ALWAYS here for you.
Enjoy!!

Conditions and how we can address them:

Here is some info on how the forums are set up. It is divided into four parts:

1) News and Announcements about the Lucky Mojo Curio Company and this site.

2) Lucky Mojo Spiritual Supplies and how to use them, listed in threads by product type and product title.

3) Life Conditions and Situations, with recommended Lucky Mojo products, spells, and advice.

4) The Online Hoodoo Community, including sites, events, and outreach sponsored by Lucky Mojo.

When you post, it helps your moderators, who are recompensed volunteers, if you post in the area of the board that is best suited to the archival of your question or comment. That way moderators will not have to move your post or merge it into ongoing threads.

If you can't find a post you made, it may have been moved or merged. Go to your profile by clicking on your name and "search recent posts" -- you will find it.

Within each board section there are STICKY threads -- ones that always stay "stuck" to the top. These are popular discussion-threads that you can read and add to if your questions or comments fall into one of these oft-broached topics. If you don't see a "sticky" that relates to your question, feel free to start a new thread in the relevant section.

We do have a few "thou shalt not" rules here, and they can be found in the Forum Rules link at the top of each page. Most important for newbies are these four common errors to avoid:

1) Please do not come here asking for our formulas for conjure oils or for instructions on how to use spiritual supplies that you bought at a grocery store or at a competitor of ours; this is the Lucky Mojo Forum and is financially supported by the Lucky Mojo Curio Co.

2) Please do not spam the moderators by sending multiple duplicated private messages asking for personal help outside the board; many of our moderators do perform readings and rootwork spell-casting for clients, but they are professionals and you should approach them as you would any other professional.

3) Please do not post illegal copies of material from other web sites or from books.

4) Please do not post put-downs of any group of people based on their religion, race, or national origin, including derogatory comments

5) Please do not start new topics

6) Please do not quote people.

Hello, I am back. Soon after I posted I became seriously ill and had a very long recovery. I'm just now getting back interested to getting back into my studies in spirituality. I had prioritized getting tenure/promotion first (done!) and now my plan is to turn back to my spiritual life and learning.

Hi firewoman,

Welcome back! I'm sorry to hear you were ill but very glad to know you have recovered.

Enjoy the forum, which offers a wealth of information and advice on conjure practice in the hoodoo tradition. If you have any questions in the topics you are interested in, please don't hesitate to ask us.

We look forward to seeing you out in the discussions!

Thank you so much!
