HOODOO • CONJURE • ROOT WORK

THE HOODOO MAGIC COLLECTION

WHAT IS HOODOO?

Merlina sketched by Severina.

The word Hoodoo is used to describe magico-spiritual work consisting of magic spells and the use of talismans, mojos and/or potions by a person to bring certain benefits to him/herself. It is synonymous with Conjure, or Rootwork.

HOODOO is not to be confused with Voodoo which is a religion whereas Hoodoo is a form of African-influenced traditional folk magic, prevalent mostly in the deep South. Many separate folk magic traditions have influenced Hoodoo and its practices derive not only from West African folk magic but also from the Native American and European magical records (Gallic / Celtic etc).

In the traditional African belief system the goal of a successful life is to achieve balance and harmony while striving for success and abundance. Since the creation all around us is bountiful in all things and all things have divine creative and magical powers within themselves, their inherent 'ally" (Spirit) can be called upon to help us bring success in our path.

In the Voodoo religion a priest or priestess calls upon the Orisha or Loa to intercede on their behalf through offerings made to Them at an established and consecrated altar. Voodoo priests and priestesses keep a temple room in their homes and build a relationship with "their Spirits" (Loa and/or Orisha) over many many years of service at the Altars.

A Hoodoo or Root Doctor practices folk magic by reaching for, speaking to and working with the allies in all of nature while remaining conscious of the role of the Divine in all of life. Hoodoo works!! Both Voodoo and Hoodoo are practiced in accordance with the will of Heaven. Therefore neither Voodoo or Hoodoo is satanic or heathen. Both are based on a belief in God. Hoodoo consists mostly of working time honored magic formulas passed on from person to person.

Many years ago, I completed a long apprenticeship and became initiated as a Priestess of Voodoo. However my very first teachers were Hoodoo or Roots people (often called Hoodoo Doctors). My first teacher was a Root Doctor Obeah) from the Bahamas. Another of my Hoodoo teachers was a wonderful root worker in rural western Louisiana. Merlina StarHorse, (Star Horse was the name given to her by her Native American guides) was both a root worker and a "traiteuse" (healer) in the tradition of French Acadiana. She came from a long line of French Creoles of Color, Native Americans and Cajun roots people. Merlina and I stayed friends throughout the years. In 2012 through the intercession of a mutual friend she blessed me with her magical records, her "cahie• magiq" and asked me to continue her work by producing the highest quality line of Hoodoo 'fixins" as she would have herself crafted them. In absolute fidelity to her instructions and in her honor, I proudly present:

THE HOODOO MAGIC COLLECTION: HOODOO SPELLS - MOJOS - HOODOO JARS
