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 Sam
