Hoodoo Principle #2
You don’t need a whole apothecary unless you are selling to others.
Each rootworker usually has a good 5 or 6 things that they make use of for all their works.
The Magic of an Open Window
🌬Use it to cleans the air and space in your room. Been sick? Let the air sweep the sickness away. Just had a bad anxiety attack? Fill your lungs with fresh air.
🌬Cleanse tarot decks, crystals, spell jars and any other witchy items with fresh air.
🌬Got old stubborn energy or haven’t been sleeping well? Let the chilly air sweep that away. Leave your window open a crack to help blow bad dreams away while you sleep
🌬Let the window blow sunlight or moonlight into your room.
🌬Light a candle by an open window and whisper secrets or prayers of thanks to your home or your deities or the land around you. Let the wind carry your charged smoke to them.
🌬Give your plants a taste of outside again! Give them more things to suck up into their leaves and then put out later!
🌬It’s a nice way to clear out a stuffy room in all senses!
Happy Practicing!
girls the demons feed themselves on ur insecurities and tonight we let them starve
Hoodoo is..
Hoodoo isn’t voodoo. Hoodoo isn’t a racist stereotype. Hoodoo isn’t the commercialization of black culture.
Hoodoo is sweetening and souring, crossing and uncrossing,
drawing and banishing, domination, fixing,
conjuring, candle reading, casting candle spells, jar spells,
petition papers, hot foot tracks, war water, mojo bags,
and nkisi bottles, but the Hoodoo itself can’t be bottled up…
Hoodoo isn’t just a certain set of magical techniques.
Hoodoo is becoming a tree whisperer, speaking to the plants, the trees, the herbs, the dirt, the roots.
Hoodoo is remembering those little traditions your auntie or your pops taught you when you were a kid, and realizing they have so much power.
Hoodoo is making do with whatever ingredients you can afford between paychecks so that you can get more paychecks.
Hoodoo is our silence when we’re listening for the whispered guidance of ancestors, spirits, or deities to teach us our path.
Hoodoo is reclaiming agency by cursing those who seek to take our power, our pride, and our self-determination away.
Hoodoo is following in the footsteps of our enslaved ancestors, in awe of their strength and in remembrance of their pain.
Hoodoo is tuning into our DNA and channeling black magic of the diaspora.
The magic isn’t just how we do it,
The magic is us.

I made plantain oil! Almost anyone can make it, plantain is super common, at least in America. All I did was simmer plantain and coconut oil in a Mason jar for two hours, strained, and cooled! You can use it for bruises, burns, cuts, acne, or skin irritation! It’s pretty much a cure all plant that’s been used for hundreds of years. ❤🌼

Third Party Reading Protection. Yesterday something extremely unsettling happened to me which is the basis for this post. Being someone who was in a very abusive relationship, privacy and protection are of the utmost importance to me. Yesterday, I ran into my abusive ex-partner at the local Trader Joe’s. They smiled smugly and said that they were doing readings to check up on me and what a surprise it was to find me there. My ex is a fellow Tarot reader who used spiritual scare tactics and Tarot readings to control me in our relationship. I felt sick and quickly left the store. I went to go visit my parents crying, feeling so scared and violated. My mother created a protection charm to shield me and block third-party readings done without my consent even if the information that is being uncovered or asked about is public knowledge. I begged her to share what she did for me with all of you, but she refused at first. I began to explain that there are so many people like me online who are dealing with something similar, in which she obliged and left out a few things in the original charm, in which I will explain below. I believe everyone should have a right to their privacy, especially in readings. While I understand that not everyone feels this way about third party readings, and even I have my exceptions, I still feel strongly that when it concerns a case of someone protecting themselves from a volatile situation or person,their personal information should not be accessible without prior consent or be violated by a third party reading.
Items Needed:
A small vial - To contain the charm.
Candle Wax - To seal the vial.
Faux tag lock - A string that matches your hair color to create a fake link/representation of yourself.
Cascarilla (powdered eggshell) - To create a barrier of protection.
Coffee Grounds - To ground the protection to the physical world.
Cotton - To cloud the truth.
Broken Glass - To deflect intruding energies from third-party readings.
Seven Small Pins - To safeguard your own energies.
Black Salt - To ward off a physical and spiritual assault.
Brown Mustard Seeds - To create confusion and false truths in readings done without your consent.
Last Four Items - It is believed in my mother’s practices to never share a complete recipe of proactive protection, for doing so could give someone the ability to disarm it. Put four items of your choosing that relate to boundaries, protection, personal power, and warding.

The enslavement of captured Africans resulted in the most historic and horrific mass movement of people against their will.
African spirituality traveled with its captured passengers. Many held firm to their devotion to their ancestors, as well as incorporating African spirituality due to the interactions between tribes and forced to follow the religions of their Slave owners.
Today, throughout the Americas and Caribbean our ancestors are still revered and honored, along with our methods of worship to our Gods and Goddesses.
i know a lot of things are going on atm but please take a minute to read this especially if you’re from the US (this country wouldn’t be this messed up if it wasn’t for american imperialism)
My dashboard has become dishearteningly non-witchy. Please reblog if you are PRIMARILY a witch blog so that I can follow you!

you wear an ancestor's face. you look like a woman you'll never meet. in that mirror, there's thousands of you. and in the bath, when you look down, she looks back, shaking and deforming in the ripples as she lies beneath the surface.
looking back at my corrupt education, it angers me how I know absolutely nothing about my own ancestry because the asshats who omitted it from our textbooks. but somehow i can tell you the genealogy of the people that wiped my ancestors off the face of the planet.
Voodoo Mama's Spellbook: Laying Tricks (Where the fuck do I put my charms/spells/etc?)
*My information can be used in any witchcraft practice or used as a reference. You do not have to be a believer of voodoo to understand this information. Just note that my knowledge is heavy in voodoo and hoodoo so a lot of what I am going to say comes from this so please give proper respect and credit when using these practices.*
What is a laying trick? Well it is simply where to place a spell or charm to either gain power or cross paths with the person. It is where you put things to “seal the deal.” And trust me, it is important. So I am going to give you so many options that your spells should work every time.
Outside the Home: This is usually used when you want to bind something to who lives in the house. Good luck charms or protection charms can be placed in your own yard in order to give you good luck and protection. Simple bad luck charms can be places in the target’s yard to hex them. This is the most common laying trick used as it is usually the easiest. Live somewhere without a yard? Put it under a rug or carpet!
Crossroads: Usually when I finish a ritual, I leave all of the remains at a crossroads so that cars will destroy it. This is very normal for a lot of rural magic users. Bad luck charms can also be left at crossroads to be destroyed by oncoming cars. Leave a coin at a crossroad for good luck. You can also make your own crossroad by marking somewhere with an X inside your house and placing it there.
Inside of an object or sewn into clothing: Love charms and good luck charms are oftentimes amazing when sewn into clothing or other items. Good dream charms, nightmare hexes, etc can be sewn into the mattress or pillow. This keeps the spell tied to a specific location so it can work its magic.
Construction site: It is very common and useful to place charms at construction sites as they tend to last forever or at least a very long time. Businesses or resturaunts are good if you want to attract business, banks are good for money, churches work well for protection, neighborhoods are good for family matters and friendship, courthouses are good to keep the law away, theaters for fame, and the list goes on and on.
In food or drink: I must warn that you should not put anything poisonous into someone’s food and please think of allergies. Food and drinks spells are usually good for gaining control over someone. You are controlling what goes into the person’s body and therefore you are in control of them. Use this if you wish to make someone do something you want. Love spells, hexes, etc.
A graveyard: Burying things in graveyards is usually used in extreme magic. Black magic, serious curses, etc, call upon the dead and old energy stored there to push the energy into the right direction.
Thrown off of somewhere; Wind: Now we get to the elemental stuff! Using the air, throw the charm off of a large building, mountain, etc for so that the air will slowly take the spell where it needs to be. This is for spells that you want to work slowly or at a nice pace. Love spells and small hexes work well with this as it allows things to start slow and gradually become stronger. I usually only use small charms as throwing a bag of odd things off of a building may alarm people. Use a dandelion, sand, oil infused herbs, or bubbles as your charm and blow.
Into the fire: Burning a charm can get rid of its effects or power them up, depending on what you are going for. The smoke that comes from burning the charm can either neutralize it or activate it.
Water: If you would like to be rid of something or banish anything, send your charm into the ocean or down a stream.
Plants: Bury the charm and a seed at the same time or use the seed as the charm by blessing it. As the seed grows, so will your spell.
