  • How Do You Get Along with You?

    Greetings everyone!   Every day I am blessed to communicate with my clients, friends, and family from Spellmaker!  Many times I am privileged to do a consultation with you or in some other way hear your story and offer you guidance and advice.

    More and more lately I find that so many of you have lost sight of who you are.  There are those of you who seem to question your choices so much that you end up not making a choice.  There are others of you who seem to have fallen into self-hate, self-criticism, and general self-loathing.  🙁   It makes me so sad to see this happening!

    So that brings up the question that is the title of this post:  How Do You Get Along with You?  Something that I believe happens, especially when you have been working on something such as a relationship case for a long time, is that you tend to lose sight of yourself!  We get so focused on working on the person we wish to have as our love that we forget that we, too, have the role of "self" to play in our own lives!

    I find this especially true of my female clients – you end up having such an earnest desire to be loved, that you forget to love the most important person – YOU!  I cannot help but think sometimes that if you put as much effort into loving yourself as you do to your love spell work then that work would come to fruition a heck of a lot faster.

    So remember, just take some time today to remember who you are, love yourself, and try to get along with YOU!

    Love, Mambo Sam

  • Ogoun’s Special Oil

    Hello everyone!  As many of you know, we are planning to resume our chat classes on April 23, 2008, with a special ritual to honor one of our favorite lwa, Ogoun Feraille.    He is syncretized with St. George and April 23 is St. George’s feast day.  So we will honor both Ogoun Feraille and St. George on this day.

    Many of you have responded to the idea that we are offering a special ritual pack to be used either together with us when we are doing the ritual online or at any other time that you desire.  I am really happy to see such a great response to honoring Ogoun!

    In this ritual pack is a special voodoo oil that Parran Matt and I have formulated especially for Ogoun.  This is actually partially a formulation that I came up with several years ago for Ogoun.  However, with some special input from Paran Matt, this oil feels even more powerful than it did to start with!  There is a "Fire and Iron" concept to this oil, representing some of the most venerated aspects of Ogoun.  If it turns out that you all like it as much as we think you will, we will certainly start to carry it on a regular basis.

    I cannot wait until you all try it out!

    Love, Mambo SamMonarchogoun

  • Chat Class Resumes Wednesday, April 23!

    Greetings everyone!  Happy Sunday to you.  I hope you are enjoying a peaceful and relaxing day.

    I am thrilled to announce that we will be resuming our online chat classes on Wednesday, April 23, 2008 at 7:00 p.m. Mountain Time!  If you are not registered for chat may I ask, WHY NOT?  😉   If you are a Spellmaker client, past or present, you are entitled to attend these teaching sessions absolutely free.  Please write to us at office@spellmaker.com for information on how to register for class if you are not already signed up!

    April 23 will mark a very special class for us.  This is the traditional day for the feast of St. George.  St. George is often syncretized with one of our favorite lwa – Ogoun!  To that end, we will be starting back to class with a bang by doing a special ritual for Ogoun and St. George to call upon them for strength, power, health, "slaying of dragons," and much, much more.  If there is something/someone that you need to power over to help your spell casting case along, then you don’t want to miss doing this ritual.

    We have put together a  special Ogoun/St. George ritual pack  that you can use in conjunction with the online ritual.  You can join in the ritual without using this pack, but obviously it certainly will be greatly enhanced if you can use it. 

    I look forward to seeing you all in chat class again!

    Love, Mambo Sam

  • Moving Forward vs. Moving On

    Happy Saturday everyone.  I hope it is Spring weather where you are and you are enjoying some sunshine and warm breezes! 

    I wanted to discuss a little bit with you about hearing that dreaded statement, "It's time to move on."  You often hear these words in reference to a lost relationship, loss of someone or something important in your life, job loss, etc.  Some well-meaning friend, relative, or counselor may tell you that it is time to "move on."

    The trouble with that statement in general is that no one wants to hear it!  It sounds trite, cliche', and meaningless!  Move on???  I don't want to "move on."  I have an unresolved, unrequited situation.  I have no way to move on!  And that is exactly the problem with being told to move on:  The person telling you that really does have your best interest at heart; they are tired of seeing you unhappy.  Unfortunately, telling you to move on isn't helping because it seems that no one can tell you exactly where it is you are moving on to!

    Without resolution of the situation, you cannot move on from it.  For most of us the translation of "move on" is "give up."  Admit failure.  You have been defeated.  You cannot win.  Everything about those two little words screams of a negative impact on your life.  Leave behind what you love.  None of us wants to do that and as human beings most of us will fight and struggle against moving on.  That's because most of the time we should not be moving on, we should be moving forward.

    Moving forward is a positive action.  It does not mean that we are giving up, admitting defeat, or accepting failure.  What it does mean is that we are not going to let the situation that we have not yet conquered stop us from moving forward to new and exciting challenges! 

    Don't get me wrong, I am not saying that moving forward is easy.  But it is easier than "moving on" because it doesn't mean leaving anything behind! Just because you have not achieved the results you want in a situation doesn't mean that you have to move on and leave that situation behind!  However, I do encourage you to always move forward.  Accept new challenges, new people, and new projects into your life.  Don't allow a not-yet-conquered situation to rule your life in such a way that you miss out on the new and wonderful things that can happen to you.  Sometimes we need to compartmentalize our lives in such a way to remember that we still have a particular goal that is long term, but we also want to enjoy the success we can achieve in other goals, too!

    If you just wallow in your seeming defeat or if you try to put those unresolved things behind you without resolution, you will find yourself stuck in the same old unhappiness day after day.  As human beings we should always be moving forward.  This does not mean to leave our old hopes and dreams behind.  Take them along for the ride!!  You may even find that you discover new ways to conquer even the most difficult of situations! 

    Love, light, and peace,
    Mambo Samantha Corfield

  • Quick Communication Spell

    Hello everyone!  Many times throughout the course of spell work we are not in communication with the person we are working on.  This might be temporary due to circumstances or it might be due to the fact that you have lost all communication with the person.  It is so difficult sometimes NOT to be in contact with that special person.  I completely understand that and am offering you this "Quick Communication Spell" that you can use to try to help foster a contact with your intended!

    Now please understand, there are some periods of time in spell work when it may actually be better NOT to be in communication with the object of your desire.  For instance, sometimes things are too rocky between you and the communication will degenerate into an argument or harsh words.   As you all know, that is not good for your spell work.  🙂 But no worries with the little "quick spell" outlined below:  If you are not supposed to be in communication with your HD, it simply won’t work for you. 

    Here’s what you need:

    • Two gender-specific figure candles (one to represent you, one to represent the person you want to contact you).  You can use ones from candle magick kits from us – white, pink, or red will work fine and you can even do this spell with candles you are using right now as long as it is for the same person.
    • Some kind of picture that represents the form of communication you want to use (a picture of a phone, computer, etc.).

    Here’s what you do:

    • One candle represents you and one candle represents the person you want to communicate with you.  (If using our candle magick kits, you still will do all the "regular" instructions of the candle kit.)
    • Face the candles towards each other, so that they are "looking" at each other, about six inches apart.
    • On the picture of the communication form write:  "Johnny (insert the name of your HD), I want to hear from you.  Please call (or email, or whatever you have chosen) me.  I promise this will be a good communication for both of us."    (And you have to really mean that – don’t use this spell if you are angry and are going to be upset or petulant when the person calls! You will be defeating your own purpose.)
    • Place the picture on the table (or other surface you are using) with the writing facing upwards.
    • Do the normal ritual for the candle magick kits (if that is what you are using), this time meditating only on communicating with this person, how well the conversation will go, what nice things you will talk about, etc. (If you are using these candles for another purpose, you can return to that purpose next session.)
    • When you are finished with the ritual and have extinguished the candles, pour a little bit of the candle wax from both candles (at the same time) on the paper.  Concentrate on you and the person "melding" together in conversation.  It just takes a small amount. Be careful not to burn yourself!
    • When the candle wax is cooled and hardened, fold the paper in on itself (over the candle wax). If the paper doesn’t stay together, you can tie it with string or ribbon so that it makes a nice, neat little package.
    • Keep the paper somewhere safe until you hear from the person you are wanting to contact you OR seven days has passed.  (If you are doing spell work, you can keep the paper on your altar.  If you working with a love doll you can keep the paper with the doll.  You can keep the paper with any of our magickal work that you might be doing.)  Once you have heard from them OR seven days have passed, you can just throw the paper away – that spell is done. It either works within seven days or it doesn’t work (for whatever reason).  If it didn’t work in seven days, try it again!  🙂  It really does work quite often.  However, as I said, sometimes there is a REASON you are not in communication with a person. On the other hand, it doesn’t hurt to try and this is relatively easy to do.  🙂 

    General Info:  This spell would be categorized as a "one time" spell – it doesn’t mean the person will keep communicating with you necessarily.  So you may need to do it again.   For some people with whom communication is sparse or difficult, it might be a good idea to keep a set of candles around to work with just for this spell.

    Have fun!

    Love,  Mambo Sam
