Lucky Mojo Forum

Hi everyone, I'm new.
I did post yesterday for some emergency help with a current situation I'm experiencing and promised I would introduce myself later. My name is Antony and I live in England. I'm a Christian and I first came to Hoodoo a couple of years ago after researching ways of focusing my prayers and getting better results. At first a lot of the advice I found was pray more, incorporate scripture and light candles. Then I found websites suggesting a special altar where I pray and praise. I dug deeper, clicked on suggested links and I found Hoodoo. This system of folk magic fits in with my beliefs quite well. I am learning Tarot as a way of receiving messages as well as to help me with personal problems. I also conduct informal (free) readings for friends if they ask me to in order to better hone my skills. I have practiced workings (with varying success) and I am eager to explore more and deepen my knowledge. I'm currently compiling a list of essential products from the shop (hopefully this will save on shipping costs to the UK) so if anyone has any "must have" oils, herbs, roots or powders then do let me know!
I am also fascinated by folk traditions from around the world, and studied religion at University, so I hope to one day enroll on the correspondence course and explore this side of Hoodoo further.
I hope that my introduction was detailed enough and I can't wait to meet everyone and make new friends.

Thanks!

Hello, Antonym88!

Welcome to the forum and to the Lucky Mojo family!

I am posting the most popular threads and some forum rules for you to look over.
And we are looking forward to seeing you on the forum.
If you ever have any questions, we are ALWAYS here for you.
Enjoy!!

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
