Introduction - Skuttler

[Skuttler]

Hello!

After years I finally walked into Lucky Mojo yesterday and obviously our minds have met through written text many times.

I identify as a witch to make life easy.

I lived with a Buddhist monk in an intentional community (only a light dabble in Buddhist Occultism, always looking for souls who have barked down those interesting realms)

I am an apt astrologer and do astrological magick

I am a formally trained Astral Traveler

I am a trained Shamanic traveler from the Germanic traditions, I also can do soul retrieval (The mechanisms are similar to Astral traveling happy to talk more about this)

I can manage my way through a Tarot reading, it's not my most fluent language but those who have received readings from me were quite shook

I live in Oakland/Berkeley, and have been exposed to Hoodoo through my community. I myself am a descendant of the reindeer herders of the artic circle and while I am not fluent in Baltic Wizardry I am always looking for individuals who are.

Professionally, my background is in economics and I do non-profit funding strategizing, grant writing and fundraising.

May our collective system integrate into one that's healthier- always doing craft for that and to protect myself.

Also if anyone wants to talk about growing up- I'm quite educated in the family systems model, i played the role of a scapegoat for my mother's mental illness growing up.

Here is some info on how the forums are set up. The four major parts of the site are:

1) Free Stuff, News, and Announcements from the Lucky Mojo Curio Company.
free-stuff-news-and-announcements-f230.html

2) Lucky Mojo Spiritual Supplies and how to use them, listed in threads by product type and product title.

3) Ask Us For Help: Spells for Life Conditions and Situations, with recommended Lucky Mojo products and advice.
ask-us-for-help-with-hoodoo-conjure-and ... k-f34.html

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 five 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 post illegal copies of material from other web sites or from books.

3) 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.

4) Please do not start new topics; we have thousands of topic-threads already in place.

5) Please do not quote people by using the copy-paste function; it wastes space.

Thanks for coming to visit our shop. I enjoyed meeting with you. I have edited your post to remove some negative comments you made based on culture and genetics, and also the monetary ad for your services, both of which are against the terms of service of this forum. Please see our rules for details.

Hi Skuttler,

I am a frequent lucid dreamer and astral traveler. I would like to get better at leaving my body at will. Where/How were you formally trained?
