  • Do You Really Love Him or….

    do you love the IDEA of him?  Now that could just as easily be a "her" instead of a "him" but since the majority of our clients here at Spellmaker are women who are doing love magick on men, I am going to stick with "him" for the purpose of this post.  🙂

    Every so often I work with a client who I feel really isn’t in love with the person that they are working on!  This is a hard subject to broach with a person simply because it brings up defensive talk from the client and we get no where!  The minute I start to question whether or not there is "true love" coming from the person doing the spell work, all their defenses go up!  However, when I am doing spell work on their behalf, I always see the truth and the truth is:  Sometimes you are in love with the idea of the man you want him to be, not the man himself. 

    Some of you are working on the man you think you can make him become; if he would just change a few things then he would be the ideal man for you!  Some of you are working on the man who you know is just plain old unobtainable.  Some of you are working on the man who has ripped your heart out, stomped on it, and fed it to you and yet you still think there is "something there." 

    Now admittedly, this group of clients makes up a very small percentage of clients!  Most of you are working on a valid case.  But if this post rings a bell with you and you wonder, "Is she talking about me?" then I would suggest that you take a closer look at who you are choosing to spend your precious time and money on. 

    If you are working on a man (or woman) that you feel you are going to change completely with spell work and THEN they will be great for you, you definitely need to reassess what you are doing.  Yes, spell work can effect great change in a person, but remember the changes that you are trying to make should be changes for the better for HIM not just for you.  For instance, if your intended is suffering from past emotional damage and you are trying to change the effects from that, then you are on the right track because it is good for him and then secondly good for you.  If you are doing spell work to try to make him a neatnik, wear his hair a certain way, and do a job he would probably hate because you want him to make more money, then you are on the wrong track.

    You need to be in love with the man he is and when you are trying to effect change, it has to be for his greater good first, and your benefit should be second. 

    Love, Mambo Sam

  • Can’t Wait to See You at the Convention!

    Greetings!  Well, I don’t know about where you live, but here in New Mexico we are experiencing a little bit of Fall weather.  It is much cooler in the evenings and in the mornings there is just something inexplicable that reminds me of the beginnings of Fall mornings. 

    Fall is definitely one of my favorite seasons, especially here in New Mexico, and although I have always loved Fall now I have another wonderful reason to love it:  It means our Albuquerque Voodoo Convention is getting near!  🙂 

    I am so very excited about the convention this year because it means the return of many old friends from last year and also the meeting of new friends, some coming from far across the world to be with us!  The Convention gives me a chance to teach everyone personally and gives our Voodoo family a chance to participate in giving blessings and consecrations to each person.  This is very rewarding for us as so much of our work is online and by email.  Certainly it is wonderful to meet everyone by email and get to know them, but it is just such an extra treat for us all to be together with you. 

    Of course, as most of you already know, we are very thrilled to be able to hold the Fet Ghede ritual with you this year!  I have also just finished putting together a magickal herbal workshop that I feel is going to benefit FOR LIFE all of those who are here to take part.  It is going to give participants a chance to learn and understand how herbal magick works, learn secret herbal combinations and how to use them, and learn how to properly prepare magickal herbs for the best possible result in using them.  I am truly excited to be able to teach this class.

    There will be much, much more to the Convention, obviously, and I will be blogging more about it in upcoming days.

    Love to all, Mambo SamGreenborder

  • Is Depression Ruining Your Case?

    Greetings everyone!  I wanted to talk to you all just a moment about depression.  For many of you who are either doing our love spells or are in the waiting period after having done love spells, depression can often set in.  Sometimes you might be depressed because you have even had to do love spells in the first place!  Sometimes you might be depressed because now that you have done them you aren’t sure when or even IF they will work for you.  Sometimes you might be depressed because the person you have been working your magick on isn’t responding just yet. 

    No matter what the reason, though, for sure depression can have a detrimental effect on your love spells!  Now I know for sure that we are all going to be sad sometimes, especially when we are not with the one person we want to be with.  However, too much of that sadness really sends out a negative energy.  I have people writing and telling me that they are "crying day and night" because they are not with the person they have done the love spells on.  While I do feel great compassion for this, I also know that crying day and night is in no way helping to bring the person closer to you. In fact, it may be doing quite the opposite.

    I would like to encourage each and every one of you to please try to do something to uplift your spirits.  And, yes, I know it isn’t easy.  I am not trying to sound cavalier or like everyone should have a Pollyanna mood.  However, I want you to get what you want from your love spell casting!  So I tell you this for your own good:  Too much crying and depression is not good for your case!  I know I have talked about it before, but I think it bears repeating.  If you feel depressed and sad over your case, try to compartmentalize those feelings. Promise yourself an hour a day to be sad, depressed, and even crying if you need to.  Then promise yourself that will be it for that day – you will always have that hour tomorrow to do it all over again.  Once that hour of sadness and crying has gone by, you must promise yourself that you will then do something productive and positive even if it is take a bath and fix your hair a different way!

    Obviously this isn’t always going to work.  Each of us has days that we just can’t seem to shake the blues away from.  But I do urge you to try and see how much better you start to feel after a few days. 

    Love to you all!  Mambo Sam

  • The Weight of Words.

    I believe in the weight of words. I believe that form follows words which follow thought and intent. Words carry a power and energy that can change the world. If the flapping of a butterflies wings somewhere across the world can effect the weather in Texas, then imagine the effect the breath that carries our daily words has on our lives and the lives of others?

    “Watch
    your thoughts, for they become words.
    Watch your words, for they become actions.
    Watch your actions, for they become habits.
    Watch your habits, for they become character.
    Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.”

                                                    ~~~~ Unknown

    Think of your words as a pebble in a pond, their effects rippling out to those around you. Written words can be erased. Spoken words can not.Think of your words as an arrow, that cant be stopped or retrieved. What you say matters, and matters greatly to the Universe.

    Light and Love

  • Focused Meditation

    Hello everyone!  Very often clients tell me that they have trouble focusing when doing the "reflection" part of their love spell work.  They find that their mind wanders and they don’t feel that they are focused enough on what they are trying to do. 

    The article below by Kathy Glass, M.S. instructs on how to do focused meditation. I have added some notes here and there to illustrate how one might use this to focus on their petitions for spell work.  Additionally, using this exercise just to learn to focus, without involving your spell work at all, will help you when you DO go back to your spell work. 

    FOCUSED MEDITATION

    This type of meditation involves focusing on something intently as a way of staying in the present moment and turning off your internal dialogue. Many people find this type of meditation easier to practice than classic meditation where you focus on nothing to quiet your mind. With focused meditation, you can choose to focus on almost anything that involves the senses, including sounds, visual pieces, tactile sensations, tastes and smells, and even the your own breathing! Here’s how:

    Here’s How:

    Choose a target for your focus. The sound of a metronome, the smell of incense, or a pleasing picture are all popular choices.  Get into a comfortable position, and relax your body. Turn your attention to your chosen target, and take in the sensation it provides. Focus on the sound, smell, sight, etc. and simply experience what it has to offer. The idea is not to think about it, but simply to experience it, being fully present in the moment.   Mambo’s Note:  If you are doing spell work and using this exercise to focus on your petition or goal for the spell work, you could use either a picture that represents the successful outcome of your spell work to you.  You could also use the product you are using as the focal point – candle, doll, talisman, etc.  In this way you can allow yourself to relax into the meditation and simply focus on the outcome.  This is not to say that this replaces the rest of what you do in the spell work, but is a way to help you focus on the outcome.

    1. If your internal voice starts to analyze it, or begins to rehash stressful situations of the day, worry about the future, make a list for grocery shopping, or anything else, gently turn your attention back to your chosen target and the sensation it provides. Let your mind stay quiet and clear.
    2. If you find your mind engaging you and realize that you’re not being fully present with the sensations of your chosen target, don’t let your inner perfectionist beat you up for ‘doing it wrong’; simply congratulate yourself for noticing, and return back to the present moment and the sensations it has to offer.
    3. That’s it. It may sound a little strange or difficult to understand as you’re reading this, but as you practice this type of meditation, it will become easier and make more sense. The more you practice, the more benefits you will experience. Enjoy!

    Tips:

    1. Give it time. Meditation often takes practice. If you’re expecting to do it ‘perfectly’, you may actually create more stress for yourself than you relieve, and you won’t want to stick with it.
    2. Start with shorter sessions—like five minutes—and work your way up to longer sessions—like 30. With practice, this type of meditation becomes easier and more effective.
    3. If the experience is frustrating for you and you don’t really want to continue, you may find more success with other types of meditation.

    What You Need:

    • Some quiet, private time.
    • Comfortable clothes.
    • A willing attitude and an open mind.

    End of Article

    Focusing on a goal, petition, or reflection during spell work is often the biggest challenge that my clients have to overcome.  Doing this exercise will definitely help you if lack of focus is a challenge that you have.

    Love, Mambo

  • Are You in Love and Angry?

    Greetings everyone!  As you all know, of course, working with clients who are doing our love spells gives me a great opportunity to be privileged enough to see the inner workings of many, many relationships. One thing that I see a LOT of are people who are actually very angry with the person upon whom they are doing love spell work!!  🙂

    Now believe me I am not saying that their anger is unwarranted!  Quite often they have been dumped in a very unceremonious way, getting hurt, remaining hurt, feeling no resolution for their hurt.  Of course they are angry!  Many times they are in contact with this person and still get hurt by them and thus the anger grows.  But here they are trying to do love spell work which by its very nature requires that you approach it from a standpoint of unconditional and pure love!   How on earth does one resolve that?

    Many people have chosen to do white candle magick kits and the Milk of Damballah(tm) white bath to help them release and remove the anger so that they may continue on with their love spell work feeling cleansed of that anger.  But what about that underlying, I-have-tried-and-I-just-can’t-get-rid-of-this anger? You probably know and feel deep down inside that the anger your are feeling towards the person you are doing love spell work on is somehow degrading that very work!  In fact, sometimes it gets so bad in people that they get on an endless cycle of being angry with their HD (Heart’s Desire) and then being angry with themselves for being angry with their HD and then being angry that they are angry! 

    Sometimes this can just go on and on especially if they are in contact with the HD who continues to needle them with either a new relationship, or continued criticism, or other negative behaviors.  Just because you love them doesn’t mean you are not affected by their negative behaviors!  Your resentment of these behaviors can have a definite negative effect on your love spell work!

    If you feel you are in this situation then I do encourage you to acknowledge what is happening and then take as many measures as necessary to help alleviate as much of the anger as you can.  Look, we are human, and most of us are not Mother Teresa, so you can only do the best you can!  The abovementioned white candle magick and Milk of Damballah white bath are definitely the standard tools for removing negativity and certainly do work for quite a number of people.  The Pink Bubble Meditation is helpful to use to release that anger and send it away from you!

    Another choice is doing the Baron’s Purple Bath. One of the many uses of the Baron’s Purple Bath is to take negative things away and bury them!  Along with that, you can ask that your own love for this person be resurrected to its full feeling once that anger is taken and buried away. In this way, you will again have the FULL POWER of your love to put into your spell work.  Remember, the great and powerful Baron Samedi is not just the lwa of death, but of life – burying and resurrecting are his forte’.  Asking him to bury your anger, hurt, and resentment and replace them with fresh and invigorated love, forgiveness, and positivity is sure to not only make you feel better, but to strengthen the power of your love spell work!

    Love, Mambo Sam

  • The Za Za Zsu – In the Pink!

    Hello everyone!  Well, with the new Sex and the City movie in the theatres now, I am reminded of how many letters I used to receive referencing different themes and characters on the television show.  Whether you loved, hated, or could have cared less about the show, many of our clients often saw themselves or their relationships correlated in the episodes of the show.  I definitely had a love-hate relationship with the show as I wearied of otherwise intelligent women telling me that they were "so Carrie."  😉

    At any rate, there was an episode talking about the "za za zsu" in a successful relationship; that crazy, romantic, fabulous time period when intimacy between a couple was warm, exciting, and extremely close and loving.  🙂   In other words, romantic sex appeal – not just the instinct and desire to have sex with someone, but the desire to have that sex with the person who was special to you.

    I started thinking about this the other day when I was preparing candle magick kits for shipping.  Red male candle magick kits were flying out the door!   Passionate love!  And believe me there is nothing wrong with that.  But it got me to thinking, what about the romance?

    What about those pink male candle magick kits?  😉  I wanted to share with you part of a letter I received a couple of months ago from a client.  Here it is:

    "…and even though Teddy and I have been doing okay after I finished my spell kits, I really felt like we were missing romance in our life.  He is a scientist and spends his day proving and disproving scientific theory for a lab.  He can sometimes be very unromantic simply because he is someone who is very practical.  Anyway, I went ahead and got the BMS pink male candle magick kits.  When I was doing them I put some Abre Camino oil on the candle too and paid some special attention to the genital area (sorry for being so graphic).  I petitioned that the next time we were making love that he would feel warm and romantic.  I pictured us melting into each other just like the candle was melting.  About a week after I finished up the trio we were being intimate when he suddenly looked at me and said, "I feel like I am melting into you."  I was so shocked that I almost started laughing and crying at the same time.  Luckily we were so busy that he didn’t notice…"

    I thought that was a pretty amazing letter!  Just the idea of even using the petition to be melting into each other just like the candle was melting was pretty innovative, I thought.  Sometimes we get so wrapped up in trying to bring someone’s love to us, we forget that most of us want something warm and fuzzy in that love, too.   Although this particular client was already with her HD, I don’t see any reason that a person couldn’t do the pink candle magick kits in this way even if you aren’t already with them.   Bringing up romantic images of you in your HD’s mind can only help your case! 

    There is a pretty fine distinction when we are talking about love and romance.  Of course we want our partner to love us!  But I am sure plenty of you know both men and women who may love quite well, but have missed the mark in the romance department.  If you are a person who also wants to make sure that romance stays alive in the relationship you are working on, I would suggest throwing a little pink candle magick into it!  Maybe soon you will be melting in his arms, too, and feeling that za za zsu!  😉

    Love, Mambo Sam
