Hello from Mississippi!

[macdagreat]

Hello to everyone on this forum, my name is Tavaris, I'm from Mississippi, and I'm pretty new to this Hoodoo, Rootwork, & Conjure. I'm 23 years old, and I'm very eager to learn and hopefully become a practitioner on this. I have a lot of questions, and the first question is where do I start?

[Miss Aida]

Hello, Macdagreat!
Welcome to the Lucky Mojo family!
Love Mississippi! Good people there!!
We are here for your questions and concerns. Anytime you want to ask something, don't be afraid to ask!
And, if you're seriously considering becoming a practitioner, Miss cat does offer a course.
Where to start? (<---you asked...).
Here are the most popular threads and some forum rules
Enjoy and see you on the forum!!

These are links to general information on Hoodoo and to give you a jumping off point.

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 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.

@Miss Aida Thanks for the information, I've read your forum rules, and I'm alrealdy browsing the forum and I will also take the course. My name is Lavaris, due to typing error on the introduction. I am an African American with a lot of elders here in the south and on the east coast, I'm looking forward to gaining a lot of knowledge here, because I'm really trying to know myself(historical wise and spiritual wise). My family is mostly Baptist, but I'm very eager to dedicate myself to learning about hoodoo/conjure.

I alrealdy have a High John The Conqueror Root(I didn't order from this website), but I will be ordering Catherine's book "Hoodoo Herb and Root Magic", and a few other products so that I may be added into the database to be considered into the course.

Hi there Macthagreat! I'm also new here, and Mississippi is my birth state and home to most of my family. I love it down there and look forward to moving back sometime in the near future.

The links Miss Aida posted are wonderful, and a good compliment to miss cat's book Hoodoo Herb and Root Magic. If you don't have it already, get it, you're going to treasure it. Good luck to you!

macdagreat, consider learning more by listening to The Lucky Mojo Rootwork Hour

[macdagreat]

Thanks @jwmcclin for the radio show info, I will check that out. I'll look for the archives of the shows, if they have any. I will be ordering the Hoodoo Herb and Root Magic book, and a few supplies from this website in a couple of days.
