Good Day to All.. From Brooklyn!!!

My name is Dawn and I am from the Bay Area. I live in Bedstuy in Brooklyn NY for the last 9 yrs. I am yayi in Palo Mayombe and also follow the Lucumi tradition. I was baptized at 13 yrs old. in my mother's mother church, Spiritual Baptist. My grandmother never shared much about hoodoo with me besides that her mother called a rootworker to put mud on her ankle when she broke it off the porch.
I am second generation Californian, my mother's family is from East Texas and Louisiana. My father's family is from Mississippi. My father's mother was heavily involved in the church and was known to prophesize through her dreams.
I have always loved making concoctions with dirt, rock and plants. I would also cut tapeworms in half & put salt on slugs because my spirits guided me to do so ... to add power to my healing packs.
I am a medium and have always been interested helping others help themselves. I use to get a knowing about stuff that I could contribute to anyone... like not to let your feet be swept on by a broom or you are curse to be barren.
Or always keep your bathroom clean from any hair, nail clippings and used blood items they can be used against you. I even keep a bag with me when its that time of month when I travel to dispose of my used tolieteries when I get home.
I love birds and cats. I want to join the hoodoo forum because most of the members in my family who practiced hoodoo are passed. I want to learn and retain this knowledge for my future children.
