I recently was making a playlist in ITunes of my favorite songs I often play when working with Ogoun. It got me to wondering what other songs might be out there – what songs are YOU listening to? Post your favorite song here in the comments section, and you could (or you all could) win a prize at the end of the week 😉

Hi All!
I am just back from spending a wonderful week with MaParents (aka Mambo Sam and Parran Matt) 😉 During my visit, we took a trip to El Santuario de Chimayo. I know Mambo Sam has mentioned Chimayo during chat class, so perhaps a few of you reading have heard of this beautiful church before. During Easter Week, many people (thousands of people) make a pilgrimage to Chimayo and throughout the week I was visiting, people could be seen headed north on foot. The church itself is visually beautiful, and very comfortable and inviting. A small room called el pocito (the little well) contains a round pit, the source of "holy dirt" (tierra bendita) that is believed to have healing powers. (I have a nice baggie full of healing dirt on hand now~!) In a room adjacent to the little well, is a prayer room, where there are pictures of people with prayer requests. Also in this room is a large collection of crutches and canes discarded by folks who felt they no longer needed them after visiting!
The trip to Chimayo was just one of the great experiences I had on my trip to NM. I have lots of photos to post and stories to relay 😉 Keep an eye out in the coming weeks!
Hope you all had a wonderful Easter!

Sister Bridget

Too often we under estimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a
listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which
have the potential to turn a life around.

Hey there!
Great News! Mambo Sam is now offering a solo casting option for The Ultimate Revenge spell! Previously, this spell was only available to do on your own, or as a dual casting. But as people lives become more demanding and time is at a premium for so many, Mambo Sam has decided to offer this spell with a solo casting option as well. Ordering a solo casting means that you get NINE HOURS of Mambo Sam's casting time for this (or any) spell! Remember, to work any revenge magick, you must still be justified. The justification for
revenge is that you were intentionally hurt through no fault of your own. The
measure for the level of revenge is that the other person be hurt as much, but
NOT more, than you were. For Mambo Sam to cast any spell for or with you, you do need to send in some material. Please see here.

Keep a spray bottle with some of Marie Laveau's House Blessing Cleaning Solution handy in your kitchen!
Why, you ask?
1. It smells great and leaves a lovely, clean scent whenever it is used : Countertops, Stovetops, Refrigerator, etc. It simply smells lovely! I have actually started using this solution when cleaning my cat box! I know, I know, but heck – it smells great! I will never use anything else again when scrubbing down the litter pan.
2. Had an unexpected visit from a nosy neighbor or cranky in-law? Spritz the area where they were sitting, and wipe down the door jamb they came and went thru for a quick, energetic clean up!
3. Have an disagreement with someone on the telephone? Take a paper towel damp with House Blessing Solution and wipe down the phone.
4. It is great for the car, too!
5. Keep a spray bottle at work to clean off your desk or work area. You will not believe how much better you feel being there and how lovely the scent! Coworkers will be asking to borrow your cleaning supplies!
Please let me know your experiences with this great energetic and physical cleanser! Leave a comment!

This poem goes right hand in hand with what is happenin' over on Mambo Sam's blog. I hope you enjoy it and are doing well with Mambo's exercises~
Take time to…. by Anon.
This has always been one of my most favorite poems. Life is a journey – spellwork is a journey – the theme of Journeying can be applied to our lives in many ways over and over again. I read this poem for the first time when I was at a very low point in my life, and found it very empowering. I hope some part of it strikes a cord with each of you as well.
