I have said this until I am blue in
the face and I will continue to say it until folks STOP mix matching
Conjure. Hoodoo/Conjure IS NOT Voodoo,
Palo, Santeria, or any other religion; those practices are religions and should
be respected as such. They have their own way of working. They have their own beliefs
why muddy them up by mixing in Conjure and vice a verse? All this does is SHOW
WHAT YOU DON”T KNOW!
If you want to do Conjure work then
keep it separate from your other works. There is NO SUCH THING AS A Orisha
MOJO BAG. That is B.S.; that is something someone made up. The Orisha have
packets that belong to them; they don’t need a Mojo Bag. Not only is this an
insult to the Orisha it is also an insult to the ancestors that suffered to make
conjure what it is. If you make things through the Iwa and call it Conjure you
are insulting them! They did all the work but you give the credit to the POWER
of Conjure work!
Conjure is NOT a religion but folks
are mixing it with powerful religions which takes away from the work of the
religion. Voodoo, Palo, Santeria, they all have their own works, why mess with
them by taking something else and mixing it. It is insulting and I am sure that
the folks who belong to these religions also find it insulting. Not only
because it is being watered down by adding outside work; but because it is
disrespectful!
If you have to pick apart something
to make it work for you then you just might not be in the right place. Momma

What really bothers me is that this nonsense of mixing up all these things will only serve to destroy the tradition. I honestly don't care what people do, but these people who keep bringing the loa, the Orisha, or even Buddha into the practice will start to teach this stuff they made-up to new people and with time the traditional ways will be lost. I know tons of people who do this. They see nothing wrong with mixing Wicca, Santeria, Voodoo, etc., with the work. And the work gets slowly watered-down and changed to being nothing like real, old-school conjure.
ReplyDeleteI agree Doc 100%. If the work is left pure it will work as it always has with mega power! Momma Starr
DeleteWhich is why I'm glad that Mama Starr, Doc Conjure and Dr lovebug are putting this stuff out there!! Thanks so much guys.
