Synopsis

Conjure, also known as Hoodoo or Rootwork, is an old, powerful, and increasingly popular system of North American folk magic. Conjure's roots derive primarily from West and Central African spiritual traditions, but it has also been influenced by Christianity, Jewish mysticism, and Native American practices.

Hoodoo Sen Moise has been studying this tradition and working with Conjure for over thirty-five years. Here in Working Conjure, he explores Conjure's history, principles, fundamentals, and ethics, while simultaneously providing a practical how-to guide to actually "working" Conjure and making Conjure work for you.

This book:

● Explores the primary materials of Conjure

● Features spells, rituals, and workings for various purposes

● Guides listeners to learn how to bring this profound school of magic to life

About Hoodoo Sen Moise

Hoodoo Sen Moise was raised in Southern Conjure and Hoodoo. As a child, he was taught by his grandfather to speak with the ancestors and, by the age of four, was able to see the spirits and had learned to open the door to power, wisdom, and service. He is now among the foremost authorities on the topic and an initiated practitioner of several African Diaspora traditions. Hoodoo Sen Moise resides in New Orleans, where he is co-owner of the shop Conjure New Orleans with author Starr Casas. He teaches in New Orleans, Salem, and elsewhere in the United States.

"Working Conjure" by Hoodoo Sen Moise deals heavily with the spiritual aspects of hoodoo. This book goes into how to contact the spirits within plants in order to gain their help in casting spells, what kind of spirits to seek out at a graveyard for certain workings, how to get in touch with ancesto......more

Goodreads review by Stacy on January 12, 2019

Conjure is not something to dabble in, and this book makes it clear that it’s an every day practice filled with working with your ancestors, the herbs, and crafting rel......more
