Love Potion #9 Update!

Hello everyone!  Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, that was a lot of potion that I made yesterday!  LOL.  It was so much fun to do it that way, though.  I really felt so much energy and good vibrations from doing those big old pots of love potion!!

Even though I made quite a bit of it, I am going to only leave it up for sale another 24 hours.  When all the orders are filled that already came in, if I have any left over, I will put those jars up for sale again.  Right at this minute, I know that I have quite a few "extra" jars left, but I obviously want to make sure that everyone who ordered gets their order!  So, this is only going to be available another 24 hours, but, as I said, if there is extra, I will put it back up for sale. 

For those of you who made your own potion, and those of  you who are getting the potion I made, remember there are a lot of ways to use this potion.  I believe Sister Bridget is going to post some ideas on how to use the potion.  Remember, a little bit of this potion goes a long way!  You only need to add in a few drops of it to something else - not necessarily to get your intended to drink a whole glass of it!  :-) Have fun with it!

Happy 09/09/09 to you!

Hello all you magickal creatures!  :-)  Parran Matt and I are preparing all the ingredients to make our Love Potion #9 for those of you who ordered it!  We have all the big pots in the house filling up with wine.  I picked the basil and roses right out of our own garden and we harvested the apple seeds last night (I am going to be making a lot of apple pie filling later on!). 

Don't forget, though, this is a great day to do ANY magick, say prayers, light a candle, do whatever spiritual endeavors you like.  The power of the triple 3's in the 09/09/09 day is sure to give a huge boost to whatever magick you are doing!

Even if you can't do any magick today, try to allow the energy and power of this day wash over you.  Make it a lucky day for you!  Do something wonderful for yourself and someone else - remember that magick needs a carrier!  Be the magickal carrier today - spread joy and luck from your heart to the heart of others.

Love, Mambo Sam

The New Charms are Ready!!!!

Hello everyone!  Just a quick note to let you all know that the first batch of new charms are ready!  I cannot even tell you how excited we are to offer these.  They are so nice and such a good quality... all shiny stainless steel on black leather cords with stainless steel clasps.  Nice!

Also, we are doing things a bit differently this time with charms:  Each charm is dedicated to a specific lwa and you will know who that lwa is. Our old charms were dedicated a little bit differently and worked great, but we are feeling these are going to be even better.  Now this doesn't mean throw your old charms away!  NO way!  However, you can use these with them or alone.

One thing that was a little disappointing about the old charms was that over the years the manufacturing of them had degenerated quite a bit.  When we first started carrying them almost 15 years ago, they were much better.  But as time passed, we noticed that we were getting a more inferior quality.  Now, that would not affect the overall efficacy of the charm, but still, we want to be giving you something nice for your money, too.  I mean I could consecrate a paper clip and it would have some power, but no one particularly wants to wear that... hmmm, wait, I think I saw a girl wearing a paper clip earring the other day so nevermind!  LOL.

Anyway, go check them out!!  We are excited!  Can you tell?  ;-)

Love Potion Number 9 - 09/09/09

Hello everyone,
Happy Monday! While I am still working on the comparative religion project (and thank you all for your suggestions), I did want to mention that the time to make your Love Potion #9 is fast upon us!

This year will be a particularly wonderful year for making this potion because it will be made on 09/09/09 this year! :-) Of course that gives us the triple threat, right? ;-)

For some reason, there always seem to be some confusion on when the "ninth hour" of the day is - even though I have it printed on the instructions that the ninth hour of ANY day is 9:00 a.m., not 9:00 p.m. - so the potion is supposed to be made at 9:00 a.m.

Because this is such a special year for making the potion, if there is enough interest, we will make a big batch here at Spellmaker and make it available for purchase, if folks wnat it. Obviously, 09/09/09 isn't going to be around again, so we are in a position to make a very strong batch of this potion! Usually we do not make here for sale at the Spellmaker office, but because of the special date, we will make it this time if people are interested.

If there is enough interest and we do make the batch, we will make a big batch and then consecrate the bottles individually for those who want to purchase it. We would probably make it available in about an 8 ounce container - so that would be more than enough for personal usage.

So, if you think you might interested in purchasing a container from us and/or you cannot make your own for any reason, please email us at customerservice@spellmaker.com and let us know. If there is enough interest, we will definitely do it!

In the meantime, check out the Spellmaker Forum for the recipe or click the link above for the recipe for making your own Love Potion #9!

Love, light, and peace,

Meditation and Focus Exercise Day 4: What do I have?

Hello, welcome to Day Four of our exercise.

Instructions:  Take a few deep breaths and relax yourself. Stare at the picture below with the thought in mind:  "What do I have?"   Spend about 3-5 minutes staring at the picture and asking yourself the same question, "What do I have?" After about 3-5 minutes, write down some of your impressions.  When you are done writing, stare at the picture again and ask yourself the same question, "What do I have?" After about 3-5 minutes, write down your impressions. Repeat the process one more time.  After your final writing down of your impressions (you should have written something down three separate times), close your notebook and do not go back and read your impressions. Get up and get away from your computer for a few minutes, drink some water, or take a short walk.  Come back tomorrow and do Day Five. :-)

Papa Legba Oil and the Red Mummy!

Happy Wednesday, everyone!
We have started Papa Alegba month! :-) As most of you know by now, of course, we are dedicating the whole month to Papa here at www.spellmaker.com! If you haven't checked out his page and the information on how to get in on the free rituals, please do so at www.spellmaker.com/legba.htm.

As I have mentioned in many posts and teachings, Papa is a great communicator with the ability to speak and translate all languages and dialects. He can open many doors, including those doors of communication that are so important to all of us in all of our relationships.

Of course, we also have the Famous Red Mummy candle magick kit that we use for communication. ;-) Now while it, naturally, comes with its own special bottle of oil, you can certainly also use some of the Papa's Gatekey™ Oil on those red mummies, too! What better way to boost that communication than with Papa's oil. It isn't called "Gatekey" for NO reason! ;-) And since communication is the "key" to all relationships, certainly you can see the correlation there!

So for those of you who have asked about putting this oil on your Red Mummy candles, the answer is absolutely yes! Oil that mummy up! It also certainly would not hurt to burn some of Papa's Open Door™ incense with it, either!

Love, light, and peace,

The Poor, Misunderstood 7-Knob Candle!

Greetings everyone! I hope your week is going great!

A very traditional magickal candle is the 7-knob candle. This candle, in one form or another, has been around for maybe thousands of years! I once saw a documentary about the Egyptian pyramids (well I have seen probably thousands of those LOL), and they found remnants of a "knobby" candle in a burial chamber!

However, I do find that many people get confused on exactly how to use a 7-knob candle and wonder exactly what you can accomplish with it! ;-)

Now, technically, this candle is called a "7-knob Wishing Candle" and traditionally has been used to make 7 different wishes towards the same situation. You make the wish, burn that knob. When that knob burns down, you can then make a different wish (or perhaps even the same wish again).

You can also use this candle to work on different aspects of a situation. For instance, let's say that you are doing love spell work and you have a somewhat complicated situation. You could use the 7-knob candle, using each knob of the candle to ask for relief or change in one part of the situation. Let's say you have an intruder to deal with, fear of commitment, the HD has financial problems, his children don't like you, he works too many long hours, etc., etc. Maybe these aren't all huge problems. Maybe some of them are just annoyances. However, you could use, for instance, a red 7-knob candle for a love situation (or even a trio of them if you have a lot of issues within your relationship) and petition for change for a different thing on each knob. Also, as I mentioned above, you could repeat petitions within the same candle, say, doing three knobs on him stopping him from spending time with the intruder, two knobs to make him feel more attracted to you, one knob petitioning for his children to like you, and one knob just to ask for peace in your relationship with him. :-)

Obviously these candles are not going to replace regular spell work, however, whether you have petty annoyances in your relationship or even more serious complications, these candles can help you in a lot of different ways!

The same goes for other situations such as financial ones: You could use one knob to petition for a raise at work, one knob to help you budget better, and so forth and so on!

So if you are looking at a situation in your life and thinking, "Gee, there are a lot of issues here" - you might be in the market for a 7-knob or two!

Working on Communication with Sex Magick

Happy Thursday, everyone!
Of course by now most of you know that we recently launched our new sex magick products. Many of you have let us know of some really great results that you have had in enhancing and encouraging those special intimate relationships in your life! :-)

During a recent consultation with a very dear client, he asked me about using the sex magick products in conjunction with our extremely popular Famous Red Mummy candle kit. I was very excited to guide him that, yes, indeed, these products could be used together quite successfully!!

Now, quite often the Red Mummy is used to "control" a situation and I am not suggesting that you try to sexually control anyone at any time! However, the other usage of the Red Mummy is to help open the path of communication with someone. That is where I felt like my wonderful client had really hit the nail on the head. ;-)

Successful communication with sexual intimacy can be very key in a good relationship. Also, using these products in conjunction with each other to communicate your sexual needs to someone as well as receive communication about their sexual needs is another great use of these products together.

Needless to say, communicating with your partner (or desired partner) in a spiritual way to lead to the intimacy of a true, loving, spiritual and sexual relationship is something very powerful! Remember, when you are doing the sex magick itself, you are calling on the very power of creation. There isn't anything more powerful than that! So when you call in the Red Mummy into the equation of the sex magick, you are now creating an atmosphere of communication, understanding, and nuturing. In this type of atmosphere, a relationship is encouraged to grow and blossom, both sexually and spiritually. It really is the best of two worlds, melding them into one!

Now don't worry if you don't know how to use these products together! That is what your caseworker is for! If you desire to use these particular products in conjunction with each other, please ask your caseworker to help you with how to do this properly. (What? You say you don't have a caseworker?? Now why not? It's fun, it's free, it's fabulous! Just write to mycase@spellmaker.com and request that someone be assigned to help you!)

And as to my dear client who had this idea in the first place: Thank you my friend, you know who you are! Love you!!!!

Love, light, and peace to all,
Mambo Samantha Corfield

Using Your Love Doll with Other Products!!!

Hi everyone! Happy April Fools' Day! LOL. Of course none of my clients are "fools" so this is not a day for you. ;-)

As we continue talking about adjunct work, I wanted to cover the usage of your love doll (deluxe or regular) with other products.

The love doll is one of the most effective products that you can use for your love case. Just the love doll itself, even without using it in combination work, is a powerful tool for communicating directly with your HD (Heart's Desire, what we call the person you are working on). The doll becomes a direct pipeline right to your HD's Higher Self.

So of course, when you combine using the doll with other products, that ups the efficacy of BOTH of those products! :-) One of my favorite combinations of work is the love doll with the Cosmic Voodoo™ Healing Egg. In most cases, something needs to either be healed within the relationship you are trying to have or perhaps themselves. When you combine using the Healing Egg with your Love Doll, you are really doubling that healing power.

For instance, if the person you are doing your spell work on has a fear of commitment; that is something that we would consider needs healing. By setting up both your Cosmic Voodoo Egg ritual AND your love doll ritual at the same time, you are bringing the level of power WAY UP THERE!! ;-) Many things in a relationship that you might think would not necessarily be considered something that needs healing actually can respond to healing! What if your HD has a "wandering eye" towards others partners? You can actually work on that with "healing" their desire for others! (Now that kind of healing would definitely call for combination work!)

Is your HD someone you don't seem to be able to depend on? You could use your Egg and Doll combination to work towards "healing" them of being undependable! So the trick is to look at what you might consider negative traits in your HD and consider those as maladies to be healed.

Another great way to use the love doll in combination is with various image candles! Using one image candle to represent you and one image candle to represent your HD, and using that in conjunction with your love doll is great! You could do this red, white, pink, or even green image candles just depending on what you are trying to accomplish! For example: Let's say that you want to mend some heavily negative events that have happened between you and your HD. Setting up your love doll, then using a white image candle for you and a white image candle for your HD, getting everything going, and then petition that all that negativity be removed from BOTH of you and especially then from your HD (using the doll). This is especially useful if you feel like you have perhaps gotten mostly past the negativity but your HD is harboring more than you are. It will help you, but you will be putting more of the energy toward your HD since two of the three products will be aimed at your HD. :-)

Now of course you have all now been introduced to our new sex magick products! Using the sex magick candles with the love doll is a great way to enhance the sexual energy work greatly. If your sex life is flagging or even non-existent with your HD, then using the doll with the sex nmagick will certainly boost things. Also, using this sexual energy in combination with the loving energy of the doll brings the relationship energy to a highly intimate level, right where you want it!

There are, of course, many other ways you could use the love doll in conjunction with our other products! :-) If you are unsure how to do this, please talk to your caseworker. If you have some other ideas of adjunct work, please leave a comment below! I would love to see your ideas, too!

Love, light, and peace,

Some Ideas About Combination Work!

Happy Monday, everyone!
Lately it seems that a number of you have had some questions about combination work. I suppose first off, we should talk a little bit about what combination work actually is.

What we here at Spellmaker term combination work is when you are working with adjunct work, such as candle magick kits, voodoo doll work, Cosmic Voodoo™ Eggs, etc. These are products that are generally used to enhance, strengthen, or work on details during or after one has used the regular Cosmic Voodoo™ spell kits.

So what I would like to do is go over a series of ways to use certain products over the next few days. Feel free to ask any questions you have simply by commenting in the comment section below. :-)

So today I would like to talk about the Red Mummy Candles. Most often we recommend that these candles be used to open up communication between yourself and someone else, or perhaps even two people that you would like to communicate better with each other. For instance, let's say that you have a man in your life who doesn't get along well with your children or your children don't accept him in your life. In that case, you could use the Red Mummy to petition for that man and your children to open up communication between themselves, separately from you, to build their own relationship.

For the most part, however, we use the Red Mummy to help us with communication between ourselves and someone else. So that is great! However, you can also use that Red Mummy in combination with, for instance, a white gender candle(appropriate to the sex of the person that you want to work on) to petition away negative energy from a bad argument, or any other type of negative communication you had with a person. If you need a person to "forget" a bad incident between you, then you can use the white male or female candle along with a Red Mummy to facilitate that.

The Red Mummy could also be used with your love doll to open up communication between you and the person you love - to make that communication loving and sweet and romantic.

Since communication is KEY to any and all relationships, using the Red Mummy in combination with almost any of your other adjunct products can help bring about the type of communication you want and help insure that you get that perfect dialogue going with that someone special.

In many instances, you could use, for instance, two white image candles - let's say you are a male/female couple - one white image candle to represent you, one to represent your intended, and also use the Red Mummy. In this way you can petition to open up that communication between the two of you, stating HOW you want it to happen, WHEN, and WHAT is the nature that you want the communication to take. You could also use it with a red set of image candles, pink set, etc., depending on what kind of communication you want: Positive where there has been something negative happening to your communication with this person (use white candles with the Red Mummy. Romantic where things have been cold (use the pink candles with the Red Mummy). Passionate and loving where loving communication has been at a stalemate (use the red candles).

I am sure you can think of many ways yourself to use the Red Mummy; just think in terms of communicating with that person you want to be with! I would love to hear the creative ways some of you have come up with to use the Red Mummy in combination with other products. We talked a lot about this in class. Have any of you used those techniques? How did it work out for you?

If you are confused on how to use this kind of combination work, please ask your caseworker! They are there to help you! :-) It can be a little tricky trying to use more than one product at a time in combination with each other, but it can be done. Just ask if you need help with it!

Love, light, and peace,
Mambo Sam
