May 15th – Special Day for Cousin Azacca and Saint Isidore 😉
May
15th is a special day – it is the feast day of our beloved Cousin
Azacca, as well as St Isidore the Farmer, who Cousin Azacca is syncretized with.You
can read the free Spellmaker.com newsletter about Cousin Azacca here :http://www.spellmaker.com/SpellmakerNewsletter/Issue2.htm
Isidore
the Farmer, (Spanish: San Isidro Labrador), (c. 1070 – May 15, 1130), was a Spanish day laborer.
Isidore was born to very poor yet very pious Catholic parents in Madrid, Spain.
His parents were unable to support him when he was a youth and sent him to work
for a wealthy landowner, John de Vergas (He ended up working for him for the
rest of his life). St. Isidore loved to attend the
Holy Mass before going to work in the morning. Because of this, he usually
arrived late at work. His fellow workers complained to their master Juan de
Vargas who investigated the matter by himself. He found out the truth that St.
Isidore went to mass daily and arrived at work late. Moreover, he discovered
something – that while St. Isidore was praying in the church, his angels plowed
the field for Him. He also discovered that while St. Isidore was plowing the
field, two angels plowed with him at his sides so that his work was equivalent
to the work of three farmers. From then on, they respected him. He was
known for his love of the poor, and there are accounts of Isidore’s supplying
them miraculously with food. here was also an
occasion when one snowy day, when going to the mill with corn to be ground
which his wife had gleaned, he passed a flock of wood-pigeons scratching vainly
for food on the hard surface of the frosty ground. Taking pity on the poor
animals, he poured half of his sack of precious corn upon the ground for the
birds, despite the mocking of witnesses. When he reached the mill, however, the
bag was full, and the corn, when it was ground, produced double the expected
amount of flour. He had a great concern for the proper treatment of
animals. He died May 15, 1130, and was declared a saint in 1622 with Ignatius
of Loyola, Francis Xavier, Teresa of Avila and Philip Neri. Together, the group
is known in Spain as “the five saints.”Patron
Saint of farmers, field hands, day laborers, ranchers, livestock, rural
communities and asking for rain.Saint
Isidore the Farmer is invoked for the concerns affecting livestock,
agriculture, and good weather and is even invoked for picnics.From the Spellmaker.com newsletter: No matter what you are trying to
grow in your life, May 15 is the perfect day to offer a feast to Azacca! Set up
a small altar using his colors and offerings: A piece of denim makes the
perfect altar cloth for him, yellow and green candles, a container of dirt,
small gardening tools, etc. Spend some time thinking of what plants need
nurturing in your life garden and ask Azacca to nourish them and help them
grow! Ask him to renew and rejuvenate any wilting plants and cut out all the
weeds!Have a great day and a wonderful weekend! Get out there and play in some dirt!

Free Chocolate Every Friday! Really!
At first, I thought it was a hoax – definately too good to be true. But it was on the news – more than one channel, even. As I was sitting in the waiting room while my car was being serviced, I kept flipping from cable news channel to cable news channel – Surely, they all couldn't be wrong……
So, when I got home later on, I checked out the website that was being mentioned, and it does seem to be TRUE!
The Mars Real Chocolate Relief Act is real! Every Friday at 9am ET thru September, Mars Candy Company will be giving away 250,000 coupons for a free candy bar every week!
Check it out! There may not be any such thing as a free lunch, but there are free candy bars!

The Divine Horsemen.
Hi Gang,
I often get emails asking me about what books folks can read to learn more about Voodoo. Mambo Sam has created a collection of recommended books on Amazon.com. One book that Mambo Sam recommends is called The Divine Horsemen, the Living Gods of Haiti by Maya Deren. This was the first book I ever read about Les Lois and it is one I find myself going back to again and again. There is even a movie/documentary of footage shot by Maya Deren filmed while she was doing her research. It is not as in depth as the book is, by any means, but it is an interesting film to watch. Recently a client sent me a link to The Divine Horsemen on Youtube! Go Figure 😉 So, I thought I would pass the link along as I thought some readers might be interested. If you find the footage interesting, I highly recommend ordering the book and giving it a read 😉

Full Moon Names
Even tho the phase of the moon has no bearing on our work with Les Lois, I have always found a full moon sooooo enchanting. When the weather permits, I try hard to find a few moments to sit outside under a full moon to just take a few deep breaths and clear my head. It has always been one of my favorite things to do. I have been writing about the history and stories associated with different full moons throughout the year. Just as an overview, every full moon throughout the year has its own name. Here’s what they’re called:
January: Old Moon, or Moon After Yule
February: Snow Moon, Hunger Moon, or Wolf Moon
March: Sap Moon, Crow Moon or Lenten Moon
April: Grass Moon, or Egg Moon
May: Planting Moon, or Milk Moon
June: Rose Moon, Flower Moon, or Strawberry Moon
July: Thunder Moon, or Hay Moon
August: Green Corn Moon, or Grain Moon
September: Fruit Moon, or Harvest Moon
October: Harvest Moon, or Hunter’s Moon
November: Hunter’s Moon, Frosty Moon, or Beaver Moon
December: Moon Before Yule, or Long Night Moon
See you in the moonlight!

Authentic Voodoo Lamps by Sister Bridget
Sister Bridget, as an initiated Priestess of Ogoun, is now offering services to create, consecrate, and burn a voodoo lamp to Ogoun on your behalf! We realize that most people do not know a lot about Voodoo lamps, but these particular types of lamps are considered a very meaningful and important type of service to offer to the lwa.
Voodoo oil lamps are steeped in rich history and ritual originating in Africa, traveling to the United States, Haiti, and other countries. It is considered a great honor and an extraordinary offering to the lwa (Voodoo spirits) to burn a lamp on their behalf and ask for their favor on a particular matter in return. These lamps are not your every day “oil lamps.” These are lamps that are ritually composed and burned on your behalf. Do you feel like a matter in your life is “steeped in darkness?” Is there something you cannot see the solution to or feel like you are in the dark about? Is the answer to your happiness hidden from you? The Voodoo Ritual Lamp is meant to shine the light on your goal and light the path for you to obtain that which you desire. Sister Bridget’s Voodoo Lamps are a very unique combination of a ritual to Ogoun and a fire offering to Ogoun. Ogoun then takes this fire and applies it to whatever you have requested through Sister Bridget. This is truly an amazing thing because you are literally feeding fire to Ogoun and asking him to take that energy into your goal!
Voodoo Priestesses and Priests are trained in the art and ritual of the Voodoo Lamp. This is something that only an initiate can truly do properly and effectively, though, of course, anyone could burn an oil lamp in honor of a lwa! But if you want the true and authentic lamp of a Priestess done for you, this is Sister Bridget’s speciality.
Also, Sister Bridget is proud to offer a unique Lamp Ritual to the Power Couple Ogoun and Erzulie Freda! Harness the powerful love between these two great spirits, and infuse it into your situation.Each ritual is customized just for you and the lamps are burned for each individual for any request that you desire. When Sister Bridget has completed your lamp ritual and burning, she will then send you a complete report on your ritual as well as a picture of your lamp ritual, some of the oil and herbs used in your lamp, and instructions on how to use them to further empower the ritual on your end. In this way, although you are not required to build and burn a ritual lamp, you still are able to put some of your own energy into your goal.
Once you order your personal lamp ritual, Sister Bridget will contact you to discuss what your goals are for the burning of the lamp. All petitions can be made for personal empowerment, love, luck, money, banishing, or other custom needs you might have.
For an extra special value, you may also order a 15 minute tarot reading to be done for you while your lamp is burning during your ritual. Ordering the lamp and reading combined offers you an excellent value! For even more value, you may choose to get a total service package of a 15 minute tarot reading, lamp burning ritual, and a Pendulum of Ogoun reading. Please check out Sister Bridget’s Page for complete information and ordering instructions.
Best of luck to all of you – may the Light of Ogoun shine for each and every one of you!

Mohawk Indian Prayer
Hey All-
I think that thinking its finally spring yet its 20 degrees outside is getting to my head! Cabin fever of the worst kind. The calender says its Spring, and it is light much later already, but its still cold and snowy. Blech! I love this prayer below, and have been saying it every day hoping it will hurry the grass to green up soon! ( I know, but a girl can dream, cant she?)
Light and Love
Sister BridgetMohawk Indian Prayer
Oh Great Spirit, Creator of all things;
Human Beings, trees, grass, berries.
Help us, be kind to us.
Let us be happy on earth.
Let us lead our children
To a good life and old age.
These our people; give them good minds
To love one another.
Oh Great Spirit,
Be kind to us
Give these people the favor
To see green trees,
Green grass, flowers, and berries
This next spring;
So we all meet again
Oh Great Spirit,
We ask of you. -
Feedback on the Sobo Ritual 😉
Hey there!
I have had many emails from clients with positive feedback and results from the Spellmaker Family's most recent Sobo Wealth and Security Ritual done on St. Patrick's Day.
Please, anyone who would like to share their experiences, please do post them in the comments here!
Also, I have received some emails asking what can be done to keep that good prosperity energy flowing. For sure, following up the Sobo ritual with either a Lots of Luck or Big Money Spell casting would be a great way to do that. If you arent up to a full nine day casting at this time, any of the Green candle magick kits would be helpful . Another greatly underutilized product that is just wonderful for wealth and money issues is the LaSiren Aquamarine Shoals Bath kit!
Check them out!
Blessings to you all.
Light and Love
Sister Bridget
