Lucky Mojo Forum

Hello, fine folk of the forum!

I'm Paige Zaferiou, a New Englander living in San Francisco and a proud Lucky Mojo customer. Up until now I've been very solitary, studying and practicing magic on my own since I was young. I was introduced to Hoodoo several years ago when I moved to the Bay Area. The practical nature and energetic vibe of Hoodoo resonates well with me and I'm very excited to keep learning here on the forum!

I had the extreme pleasure of attending the Hoodoo Heritage Festival for the first time this year, and was utterly uplifted by that gathering of folks and the generosity of knowledge shared - and not to mention delighted by the new model railroad.

In particular I was affected by Michele Jackson's workshop on contemporary methods of throwing the bones, and just today performed my very first bone reading with the set I've been building since the workshop. Thank you, thank you to Michele for that lovely class and for reminding me of the powerful connection available to us through our ancestors.

Miss cat's wonderfully active workshop on wildcrafting herbs was also a major blessing. I have since used many of the herbs I gathered there in a mojo bag for protection and can happily report that it is the most potent I've ever made! I look forward to many years of wildcrafting with my Felco clippers and field guide.

I'm so very excited to be here. Many blessings to you sweet chickadees!

Hello, paige_zaferiou
Welcome to the forum and the Lucky Mojo family!!!
So very happy that you enjoyed the festival and met some very fine people!
Michele Jackson is WONDERFUL! I agree COMPLETELY.
And I can't say enough about Miss cat. Just an absolutely AMAZING woman!!
Anyway, welcome!
Here are the most popular threads and some forum rules.
Enjoy and see you on the forum!

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 about religions to which you may have previously been an adherent or comments in which you seek to falsely conflate any religion with the practice of evil sorcery.

Thank you, Miss Aida!

It will be wonderful to revisit many of those pages, which I first read long ago. So much good stuff, so much to absorb.

Reading glasses, activate!

Hi there, fellow California transplant! My name is Nate and I'm originally from Kentucky! Very nice to meet you! We seem to share a lot of the same interests! I'm bummed that I didn't make it up to the Hoodoo Heritage Festival this year, but looking forward to driving up next year!
