  • Love doll advice!

    Morning!

    I came across this post early  this morning in one of my files. It is by my dearly departed friend and mentor Orleanna, the original Spellmaker Caseworker and first ever Khouzhan of our House of the Nine Mysteries. The post talks about a method Orleanna developed to use her Voodoo Love Doll (www.spellmaker.com/doll.htm)  while communicating with her fella via AIM or some form of online messenger. After rereading the post, I can see how this method can also be used while texting! I hope some of you find the information helpful! If you have any questions about using it, or anything else for that matter, please feel free to email me at bridget@spellmaker.com

    Have a wondeful day!

    Love

    ************************************************************************

    Begin Post:

    Now, here's another little trick I liked to use when I'd use our
    #VDK1 Voodoo Love Doll(tm).
     
    Most of us have computers - that's how you're reading this forum,
    that's how you write email, etc.
     
    Most of you also use some type of instant message service like
    AOL's Instant Messenger (AIM).
     
    My love would usually be on online around 10:00 p.m. and we'd
    always (and still do) chat via AIM then if he wasn't with me that
    night.
     
    I'd set up the doll in front of my computer. I'd place the doll in front
    of the monitor, a candle to each side of the monitor and then the
    incense to the very left of the left side candle.
     
    I also made up a "buddy" to represent the intruder as well as all
    other lovers - something like "Her&AllOthersButMe"
     
    Take some of the leftover banishing oil from the #5 Leave My
    Man Alone Spell(tm) and make a cross over the buddy's name to
    represent the intruder and all others. Then take any leftover love
    oil and make a cross over your lover's buddy name. Later, wipe
    your monitor clean with glass cleaner like Windex.
     
    Now, per the instructions with the doll kit, light the candles and
    incense, sprinkle the herbs over the doll (I kept it in a shoe box
    for that) and say the chant that comes with the doll kit. I'd do that
    just before 10:00 p.m. and then I'd log on when I knew he'd be
    online.
     
    Voila, I'm now actively working magick on him WHILE in contact
    with him but he has no idea!
     
    Note: The instructions talk about 13 minutes but you can have a
    longer session with a doll - the 13 minutes are more of a
    suggested guideline.
     
    So, after I'd get the doll all set up and done the opening ritual,
    then I'd log on and while typing to him via AIM, I'd also say aloud,
    "While we type, the doll work is affecting you right now. You're
    thinking of the last time we were together and you want me even
    more. Your desire for (intruder) is totally leaving and if she's
    online now, I'm banishing her from you - anything she types,
    you'll hardly pay attention. Your attention is focused on me, solely
    on me. You find your thoughts of love for me are getting stronger
    and stronger right now as we type."
     
    Then, I'd go into whatever detail for anything specific on my mind
    aloud with the doll. For example, suppose I wanted to see him
    on a Wednesday night, I'd say aloud with the doll set-up and
    candles still burning, "You'll find a way to see me Wednesday.
    You'll WANT to see me Wednesday. You miss me and can
    hardly wait to see me - you'll find yourself making plans to get in
    your car and come over on Wednesday evening." Then I'd type
    an IM to him, something like "I look forward to seeing you next
    time." And you'd be surprised how often I'd get an IM reply like
    "Wednesday night looks good." (Or whatever night I'd have
    petitioned for with the doll while I was online then.)
     
    The whole time, he and I are exchanging IM's - and I'm actively
    using magick on him WHILE in contact with him - but he has no
    idea!
     
    That's a great way to use a doll, folks :) I know most of my clients
    use some type of online messenger service to chat via typing
    with the person they love - try setting up the doll for when you do
    that!
     
    I also found beeswax candles to last a long time. I bought red
    beeswax candles and used them for my "AIM-doll sessions."
    (You can use either purple or red candles with the doll.)
     
    Light and love,

  • New video with Mambo Sam.

     Hello!

    Many clients ask us what happens during the spell casting process. What happens before, during and after? Well, we can not show *everything* but there are some things we can share! In this video by Mambo Sam, Mambo explains about the end of the casting process – what is involved, where it takes place, what offerings are made, what some of the closing prayers are. It may seem strange to begin at the end, BUT endings really are not endings, are they? Especially where spellwork is concerned!

    Hope you enjoy!

    Love

    Sister Bridget

     

  • See Mambo Sam working on Spellmaker’s Valentine’s Ritual to Erzulie Freda!

     

    Hello!

    Every year, Spellmaker puts on a free ritual for all who wish to participate to the Lwa of Love, Erzulie Freda. This year, we had the benefit of taping some parts of the ritual (the parts we can share with the public) and have made the video available to view. I was lucky enough to be the one recording Mambo Sam (you will hear my voice as I join her with the Hail Mary).  Be sure to watch it till the end, as Mambo Sam includes a special blessing for all of you. Mambo Sam, Parran Matt and myself feel very privledged to have each of you in our lives, and hope that you enjoy seeing this look into some of the things we do here at Spellmaker!

    Love

  • At the Crossroads…..

    Hi there-

    I found this lovely poem the otherday by happenstance (um….NOT!) and read it during a ritual to Papa Legba.  It felt really good when I read it, and I believe I will be using it again. I wanted to share it with you, incase it appeals to you as well. To me, this poem really grabs the heart of what Lebga is about- showing us the way to success and happiness 😉
    Love,

    Sister Bridget

    At the Crossroads  ~~by Sadie Tiller Crawley

    He stood at the crossroads all alone,
    The sunlight in his face;
    He had no thought for an evil course,
    He was set for a manly race.
    But the road stretched east and the
    road stretched west,
    And he did not know which road
    was the best;
    So he took the wrong road and it lead
    him down,
    And he lost the race and the
    victor's crown.
    He was caught at last in an
    angry snare
    Because no one stood at the
    crossroads there
    To show him the better road.
    Another day at the self-same place
    A boy with high hopes stood;
    He, too, was set for a manly race
    He was seeking the things that
    were good.
    And one was there who the roads
    did know,
    And that one showed him the
    way to go;
    So he turned away from the road
    leading down,
    And he won the race and the
    victor's crown;
    He walks today on the highways fair
    Because one stood at the
    crossroads there
    To show him a better road.

  • Songs for Sobo! What is your favorite?

    With our Spellmaker Family's Annual Sobo Prosperity Ritual approaching, naturally our favorite little Sobo song pops in our heads 🙂 What other songs might we play during this ritual? Remember, Sobo is considered one of the lwa of the sky and is said to control lightning, thunder, and rain. Bade is considered to control the wind. Together, they have control of the elements of nature. Due to their elemental powers, they are often called upon to help us feel secure! Think of terms such as "raining money," "pennies from heaven," etc.

    Here are a few to start us off…..

    Money for Nothing- Dire Straights

    Pay Me My Money Down- Springsteen

    Then, one of my all time favorites, the Money Song by Monty Python 🙂

    Do you have a favorite song about money? Post yours here and you may win a prize!

    The Money Song by Monty Python

    I've got ninety thousand pounds in my pyjamas.
    I've got forty thousand French francs in my fridge.
    I've got lots of lovely lire.
    Now the Deutschmark's getting dearer,
    And my dollar bills would buy the Brooklyn Bridge.

    There is nothing quite as wonderful as money.
    There is nothing quite as beautiful as cash.
    Some people say it's folly,
    But I'd rather have the lolly.
    With money you can make a splash.

    There is nothing like a newly minted pound.

    Money, money, money, money.

    Everyone must hanker
    For the butchness of a banker.
    It's accountancy that makes the world go 'round.

    You can keep your Marxist ways,
    For it's only just a phase,
    For it's money, money, money makes the world go 'round.

    …Money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, moneeeeey!

  • What Happens Tomorrow?

    …..this is such a common question I hear from clients. It is so easy in the process of magick to get caught up in the minutia of day to day events, and lose our sight of the long term goal.

    "S/he un-friended me on FB"

    "S/he has a new friend on FB"

    "S/he saw me online but did not chat with me"

    "S/he drove past me but did not wave"

    etc etc etc

    the list could go on, but you get the idea (PS these are REALLY very common things I hear from folks, I am in no way singleling anyone out at all – please dont think that). While in the moment, and with the emotional state we can be in with casting and processing (Yup – the spell CASTER does some processing as well) I can see how these events listed above, and others, can make one thing the world is falling apart…..but if we just take a beat, and a few deep breaths, and set our sights on the long term goal again, things will resume there proper perspective – I promise! Waiting is hard – I often think it is the hardest part of things – but it is also the extremely important! The calmer and more centered and more positive you can stay in the waiting peroid, the better shape you will be in physically, emotionally, and spiritually when your results begin to manifest 😉 That is NOT to be underrated. You cant give from an empty cup, and there arent any awards for handwringing, either. Make the best of the waiting period, keep your eye on the GOAL LINE, not on the ant on the blade of grass at your feet right now, and you will get to the finish line a healthier, fuller YOU.

    Hmmmm – not sure where that rant came from, but I feel better now 😉

    Anyway, here is a song I found (its a goodie) to help you keep your eye on the goal, and let go of the stress of today.

    What Happens Tomorrow by Duran Duran

    Child, don't you worry
    It's enough you're growing up in such a hurry
    Brings you down the news they sell you
    To put in your mind that all mankind is a failure

    But nobody knows what's gonna happen tomorrow
    We try not to show how frightened we are
    If you let me I'll protect you however I can

    You've got to believe
    it'll be alright in the end

    Fighting, because we're so close
    There are times we punish those who we need the most
    No, we can't wait for a saviour
    Only got ourselves to blame for this behaviour

    And nobody knows what's gonna happen tomorrow
    We try not to show how frightened we are
    It would seem lonely, if you were the only star in the night

    You've got to believe
    it'll be alright in the end

    You've got to believe
    it'll be alright again

    time is a river
    a silent icy river
    pulls us all
    running deep
    deep and fast enough to get lost down in the flow
    thrashing around me
    tiny lives mean everything

    And nobody knows what's gonna happen tomorrow
    So don't let go, now we've come this far
    Hope I have peace
    Understand me
    you're never alone

    We've got to believe
    it'll be alright in the end

    nobody knows

    You've got to believe
    it'll be alright my friend

    So don't let go

    Unless we believe
    it'll be alright again

    Nobody knows
