Mojo Seen, Touched, Dropped, Washed, Unfed, Lost, Torn, Open

Mojo hands can be "killed" or stop working for a number of reasons. Some believe that if the wrong person sees or Lord forbid, touches your hand it will no longer work for you, sometimes they just don't have the zing that they had once upon a time. Best practices include blessing, dressing, and charging your hand once a week and re-making your bag once a year. If you suspect your hand is no longer working do a divination to confirm that or get a reader to read the situation for you.
good luck,
Bri

I had one turn ice cold and it wouldn't warm up no matter what I did. It was dead and I buried it.

You are certainly correct that the mojo posses an intelligence of its own, however the point was that scientifically proven sentience is not something that you will find from a mojo bag. The intelligence is of a spiritual nature so you'll experience it spiritually.

A mojo can be killed, as Bri explained.

It should be re-worked or re-made once a year, as Bri also explained.

It is also the custom to attend to or feed your mojo hand once a week, as bri said. If you don't attend to it in this way, it may die by fading away.

I have never heard the term "burn out" used -- this would imply working so hard it overtaxed itself and dropped over. Never heard of that, and i don't think it is part of the tradition as i know it.

I also know people who have kept their mojos and worked them for years...but that was their preference.

Hi all,

quick question about mojos falling accidentally on the ground. I was told by one practitioner to never let my mojo touch the ground as this would kill it. I have never heard this or read this anywhere else. I know about other people touching it etc... but how about this touching the ground thing?

What do you think?

Thanks

I have never heard that simply lettig it touch the ground will kill it. I have heard so called "Neo-pagans" spout off that if herbs should ever touch the earth they would loses all of there power, a foolish idea in my mind. But perhaps that is where this worker got the idea.

Hitting the ground has never been an issue for me. It's the touching that zaps it in my experience.

*smile* My grandmother was not a Neo-Pagan - love the concept though.

I suspect that she was referring to the carelessness as much as the actual dropping - so many thing I wish I'd known to ask.....

yes carelessness will kill a mojo eventually...

I learned that the hard way last year when I accidentally left my mojo in my pants pocket. After a hard day with a spillage accident involved I got em off and into the wash and hit the shower as fast as I could and only after did I realize my mistake. One of the saddest days i've had recently and that was a particularly powerful mojo too

Live and learn and be careful with your hands.

Hi, I received my jack ball some time last year and started working on it. My wishes were specific, however, I didn't see any changes at all. Few months later, I have misplaced my jack ball for several months, and have just found it. I was just wondering if I could still use the same jack ball, or do I have to get a new one? I now have different wishes to make, can I just write a new petition paper? Should I make the wishes more general, rather than really specific?

Please help

Thank you

Hello!

I have a van van mojo bag (from lucky mojo) and my wonderful, lovely tornado of a toddler managed to dump an entire glass of water on to it. Whats worse is that I didnt notice it right away. Everything is sopping wet. And it is most obviously dead.

I realize I need to remake it, but am unsure on what I can reuse/salvage? The dime and pyrite are easy enough, but the roots and the rabbits foot is what i am most unsure on. The angelica root is abit spongy. HAving never really worked with roots before I was wondering if I can let it dry back out? Its discolored now from the rest of the wet herbs. The High John root seems okay... and the rabbits foot should dry back out but it is also discolored.

Im really hoping to not have to start completely over, Im out of the country and it takes a long time to get stuff over here.

Thanks in advance for any advice. I actually feel heart sick over this.
Dawn

Rabbit's feet are fairly durable, and separate from the larger collection it should still be a valuable charm on it's own. I live in Washington state and my personal rabbit's foot has seen more moisture than the rabbit probably did alive.

Well that is good to hear!

The angelica root seems hard again, discolored from the wet herbs and ink but not ruined.

I think I will need to wrap the next bag in plastic and bubble wrap.. :/

Thank you for the reply!!!!

You really shouldn't put it somewhere where the kids can get at it... mojos are supposed to be private, and letting somebody else see it can harm or kill it as well. If you carry a purse or a bag, put it in there tucked away and I'd think that would be much safer and just as good.

...or carry it on your person physically. This isn't usually difficult unless one carries more than one, or wears a large amount of mundane jewelry, talismans, etc.

I was carrying on my physically. I would stuff it at the top of my bra. However, I am also breastfeeding my son. So it goes on the night stand if Im in the room or in a pocket. This is how the accident happened. It was on the night stand ( I kept it wrapped in silk as well for comfort and to keep it out of sight.)
Only the other night said baby was up a lot, I was tired the next day.. left the bag on the table.. ugh.

So far the roots are drying out nicely as is the foot. Though I could bend the toes earlier... heh. Im going to order new herbs and reuse the rest, and just start over. I figure I will bury the old herbs in the yard with my thanks and apologies. Chalk it up to experience and do better.

As an aside, I would like to say that while it was dry and working, it was really working.

I was very pleased with the results. On the third day I found something that had been lost of over 2 years and it was something that is very special to me. Lots of other stuff to, but that was the icing on the cake.

Hello All,

Let me first state that my mojo bag was not a LM product, but I am not asking for help with the actual bag, I would like to know if there is anything I can do to salvage my work.

The mojo bag was dressed with come to me oil and it contained a lodestone, along with other herbs and a petition. I lost the bag while traveling and I dont regret taking it with me, as I had been neglecting it due to being out of town a lot, I just wish I would have been more careful.

Im not sure if I should just purchase an all new come to me bag (LM of course

) or use another method (so as not to mess up the previous work) or just leave it alone. I am open to all suggestions, as I started this journey with limited knowledge and I chose a product that I believed would continuously work.

Please advise. If you need more information, let me know.

thanks!

I would just buy a new one, I don't think it would hurt the previous work as that's probably good and dead now and as you said, you had been neglecting it so I'd just get a new one and start fresh.

Oh boooo! Seems it got tangled up in my sheets and thrown in the wash machine. Remarkably, everything seems to be intact, but the photo and folded papers inside are all swollen and messed up. I can still feel the herbs inside but I'm sure my DNA is probably all washed up besides the hairs I added. Guess I better start over? I'm totally kicking myself! ARGH!!

It's kinda cute and fat now. Before it had bag paper petitions in it and was a bit stiff inside. Now it's all soft and chubby. lol

If I do have to redo the entire spell, what about the lodestones I have buried in a planter under my porch?

A couple of days ago I had taken off my Uncrossing Mojo Hand to take a bath. It was late and I was tired, so I forgot to put it back on. When I woke the next morning, I realized I had forgotten it. It was left in a dry bucket so I thought it was safe. But then I found out my mom had stuck two wet rags on it! It wasn't soaking wet, but it was still pretty damp. I stuck it in front of the window fan immediately, so it could dry. It dried within hours, but I need to know if it will still work, or if I need to buy another one.

Yes, once a mojo is fixed and tied, it is not meant to be reopened (except in the case of a nation sack which is ongoing - but that's really the only exception). There is no need to add sachet powder - just feed the mojo condition oil or whiskey weekly.

Mine came open, after I put a big (too big) piece of paper in it. I have been wanting to remove it, and the mercury dime and two dollar bill, because what I asked for was absurd. It was never tied though. Can I take out the petition and re dress? I have had it since November. Thanks in advance.

If you fixed it for a certain petition, and you no longer want that petition - then bury the bag respectfully and make a new one that reflects your new desire.

Its simply going to stop working, and unless some other person goes through it and decides to use your personal concerns that knows you (I highly doubt this), then that would be the only concern I would have. I understand being upset, but the only thing you can do at this point is either make or purchase another one.

i just received a triple strength attraction mojo hand yesterday and started working it last night, i felt really connected with the work i did and very positive about it. i wore it in my sports bra today during yoga class and accidentally forgot and very briefly rested my full weight on my chest while coming down on the ground, i felt a bit of a crunch and immediately lifted my weight off. i don't want to reopen the bag to check, but i cannot be sure that something inside such as the alligator foot or something else didn't break a tiny bit...i'm wondering if this would somehow impair the bag? i really hope not as this is the second bag i've ordered this month, the last one i had to throw out because it fell out of my shirt into a parking lot...do you guys think this is okay?

Hello, i am new to the forum and i need a possible definite answer. I have a new mojo bag and i play street numbers. Yesterday evening when i went to put mu numbers in no one else was there except me and the old man who run the place and he always try to get fresh with me and say slick stuff but i pay him no attention he's pretty close to 85 yrs old. He wanted to touch me yesterday and i did not want him to and he went straight to my left side where i wear my mojo bag i tried to hold my arm down but i think he may have still touched it and after that he laughed and went back to where he sits. I know that if someone touch your bag beside you it it dead and i think he was really trying to find my mojo aside from being a dirty old man. Do you think my mojo is dead? and my number fell last night i missed it cause i played the wrong way. I am going to try feeding it. i just bought it and i cant afford another one right now and y suggsetions?

HailsDiscordia is correct, however, did he touch it directly, it seems from your post that he felt you where you keep your mojo, in your bra or pocket. But if he touched the pocket that the mojo is in or your bra where the mojo is hidden, that's a different thing.

I won't personally touch a mojo that I've made for someone else after that mojo has been given to them and spent time on their person. After that it is THEIR's. In the case of refreshing a mojo after a year or so of use, I consider it a re-making since most ingredients are being replaced and others are being refreshed.

Use a pendulum, or other form of divination to determine if it's still working. That will solve the issue decisively.

Unread post by **CopperFox** » Thu Jul 29, 2010 7:08 am

It's probably okay -- check to see if you are still feeling connected to the bag. It's normal for the contents of the bag to experience wear and tear as you carry and work with the mojo. That's why it's advised that you have the mojo remade about once per year.

Bear in mind that even if you crushed or broke some of the items within the bag, they are still present in the mojo and working for you. Continue to work with and feed the mojo. Only if you notice that the hand is no longer generating the same type of feelings or energy would you need to be concerned that it is "broken."

Good luck!

Hi
Ive been doing two LM mojo hands, one im carrying on my body as the instructions say, but the other erquires leaving on my alter with the candle. My friend called round unexpectadly today and walked into my bedroom where i had my candle, paper, personal concerns and 'love me' mojo hand on my alter as they are still in progress, Will this have harmed the mojo? I dont think she paid much attention to it and i went straight to it and put it away when i realized, i know she didnt touch it. Also yesterday when i passed it through the candle smoke i realised that it had slightly blackened the bag (not much at all) even though the flame didn't touch the bag itself, would this have harmed it in any way?
I have dowsed with my pendulum which says the mojo is fine and alive and i also feel that its alive and ok, but any feedback would be apprieciated.
Thanks

If you have done divination with a pendulum and you know that your divination is usually accurate and your hand "feels" fine then I think you should go with that. The big issue with mojo hands is other people touching them and if you are working certain kinds of love drawing hands the issue is your target seeing them, but if it was just a friend coming over she probably didn't even know what she was looking at!
good luck,

Hello ladies and gents,

I did a mojo bag a few weeks ago for 'financial progress'. I'm already seeing movement, and I'm so grateful for that! Anyhow, I went to the bank to withdraw some cash for my bus fair and I accidentally took the mojo bag out with other stuff that was inside my purse. Noone was paying attention and the bank was almost empty. I quickly put it back into my purse. Now, I'm a bit paranoid since the mojo bag isn't supposed to be seen by anybody but me. I'm not sure if anyone got a glimpse of it but it came out in the open for a few seconds lol.

Should I do a new one or just see what happens? I don't want to do damage by doing a new one or not doing it at all...

Please, someone more experienced advise me. Thank you!

That mojo would only be killed if someone touched it. You're fine. If you're really worried about it, pass it through some incense to cleanse it and give it a boost.

It''s probably fine. Usually the mojo being touched by someone else is what kills it. Feed it some oil, whiskey, or Hoyt's and put it in some incense smoke.
