Not really. It is the dirt from the graves of people now in spirit form. There is no real substitute for that.

Hello all. I am planning on visiting a very famous woman who had ties to the underground railroad and was an abolistionist. Any advice on offerings I can leave for her? Best days to collect? I am aomewhat nervous because in 2025 alot of graves have security I don't want to cause suspicion or alert anyone especially since she is high profile. I've collect dirt before but not from anyone famous. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

[JayDee]

BodyGlitz ,

I would research the person to determine what they liked, such as smokes, coffee, liquor? If you are unable to determine such items, a few items are generally safe such as flowers, water, a piece of bread or baked good, coins, even candles.

How to without being noticed? I suggest bringing flowers and tools to clean the tomb if any one questions you state your cleaning a tomb. Stick your thumb into the dirt and pull out to take a sample, drop the coins in and cover it again. Lay the flowers over the spot to conceal the work.

JayDee

Thank you Jaydee Blessings

One thought that occurs to me is an offering of a U.S. cent with Abraham Lincoln on it, as he was an abolitionist too, or a coin with the word Liberty on it. Just make sure it is a real copper Lincoln Cent or a real silver coin, like a Walking Liberty Half Dollar, not one of those awful clad zinc coins that decay so quickly. You can find old coins on eBay. We also sell Lincoln Wheat-back cents and Indian Head Cents, for magical purposes.

Perfect ! Thank you

Have you ever tried contacting the spirit embodied in the graveyard dirt you work with?

Seriously, does that spirit have a message for you, a tip or trick, a warning or a caution?

This is one way to connect with the spirit of graveyard dirt:

Place a small offering bowl of the dirt on an altar of table. Light a white candle dressed with a blend of Spirit Guide Oil, Indian Spirit Guide Oil, Psychic Vision Oil, and Clarity Oil, and use a Ouija board or spirit board to ask questions of the spirit.

This special podcast will tell you how:

Hi, everyone!

I've just listened to the hoodoo rootwork hour radioshow presented by Miss Cat, Conjureman and Jaydee!

It can be found here!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGtKakv155A&t=1356s

What an amazing show!

However, and I sincerely apologize, English is not my first language and for some reason I cannot fully comprehend, when Miss Cat mentions the story of a woman who uses graveyard dirt from the botanica, did she mention that the woman continued to supplement her graveyard dirt by adding less than a half of local dirt? Therefore, is graveyard dirt "multiplied" similar to Holy Water in Catholic and Orthodox Christian branches?

[catherineyronwode]

Balkan Diviner --

Yes, this woman increased the graveyard dirt in the same way that Holy Water is increased by practitioners of the Catholic religion.

Greetings everyone. A question, traditionally before our Internet era, were the 'rules' of collecting and paying for graveyard dirt more regionally varied or flexible, or was the tradition across the board pretty much like what people discuss today.

Are there historical variations on greeting the guardian spirit, leaving offerings, finding the right grave, and so on? And are there any cases where general dirt from graveyard or cemetery, not from a specific tomb but from anywhere in the yard that's not an actual grave, have been used?

Also, traditionally what would one do if one couldn't divine the answer of whether it was okay to take dirt from a specific grave? Like if one didn't feel an answer or sign?

Thanks for an amazing forum and amazing episode !

[JayDee]

kamals,

You will notice variations across the United States coastal locations and the rules or procedures. None of them are written in stone but ways given by practitioners.

Harry Hyatt did extensive research on this topic.

Informant 1383 discussed paying for dirt with a silver dime.

Another source (undocumented) stated: Take the dirt from the seventh grave from the gates, they said, or from the third grave on the left, or from any grave. (This is counting graves).

Informant 1348- But chew gotta go to someone’s grave that chew knows well … go to the head of this grave … pay the dead man or that dead woman … three cents. And then take some of the dirt.

The point is many methods exist. Lucky Mojo has wrote a lot of information on this topic and purchasing dirt. As a personal practice I like to learn about the spirit, and offer items they liked or would like. Such as coffee, liquor, tobacco, coins, candles, water, etc. Always ask and listen for a response.
