Conjure workers, root doctors, and Swamp Witch’s alike, use candles.
In fact, most spiritual paths use candles in some form or fashion. I won’t speak on all the other paths, but I can tell you, chere, that in Swamp Conjure, a candle is considered a tool. This particular tool is used to help focus your mind and intent on the task at hand.

candles

Now, keep in mind that in many of the traditions that are based upon the different forms of folk magick, a candle isn’t always ‘just a candle’.
As I said, candles are tools. But not all tools are created equal.
Enter the “fixed” candles.
These are magickally “fixed” candles – dressed with magickal conjure oils and then dusted with herbs or blow powders. The oils and powders add additional power that help in manifestation of your intent. These fixed candles are often hand-prepared, which helps to impart certain energies into the candle as it is created.
Miss Sha’, Swamp Witch that she is, takes hers a wee step further, and adorns them with a symbolic charm. The charms are meant to, again, focus your intent on the goal. As the candle burns, it releases the charm symbolizing attainment of this goal.
The fiixed candles created by Inexplicable Things can be made for nearly any intention – and are quite popular. We currently offer several varieties, but one of our most recent additions is a Money-Draw fixed candle that we call, ‘The Benjamins.’
money-candle-iii
Prosperity means different things to different folks. To some, it’s wealth and status. To others, it comes in the form of success and promotions. But one of the most common forms is cold hard cash. And who couldn’t use a little extra dough?
Our “Benjamins” is anointed with our #1 best-selling Money Oil, which we call Fast Cash Oil. This oil has proven quite effective when it comes to needing some extra dough for a bill, or rubbing on your last $20 bill before dropping it in a machine at your favorite casino. We have also dusted this beautiful candle with our Crown of Success Powder and just a pinch of magnetic sand. You may also find small pieces of shredded cash stuck to the candle when it arrives!
Use this candle however you see fit – but a common Swamp Conjure use is to carve your desire on the side of the candle. Write out a petition – be sure to be very specific – and place this petition under the candle as it burns. Light your candle. When the charm is released, your working is well on the way. Repeat this process, periodically, if you wish to boost the energies.

Boom! That’s all there is to it for using the fixed candles created at Inexplicable Things. Here in the swamp, we like to keep things as user-friendly as possible! Nothing fancy!
We also currently offer a Fixed Road Opener Candle, as well as a Flames of Passion Fixed Love Candle. There will be more forthcoming!

Behind the Mask . . .

Let’s face it – most of us have been hurt in some form or fashion by someone we really cared about.

That’s life – it happens to the best of us. But occasionally, we are unfortunate enough to care about a drama queen (or king). I’m not talking typical drama either – I mean the kind that will rip your heart out because you wound up caring for them and they finally tired of playing with you and tossed you aside like a worn out teddy bear. The kind of person that dawns a perfect window dressing to hide the counterfeit that they really are.

venice-mask1

Oh, these pretentious, two-faced bastards will act soft and innocent around you – but get them in a crowd where they are the center of attention – and honey, you would swear they could win an Oscar for their performance.

Yeah you right, Chere – you got somebody in mind, don’t ya?

So what do you do when they really need a taste of their own medicine? When you want, no need, to show their little horde of unsuspecting minions who they really are?

I can tell you what a Swamp Witch does – she turns ’em into Roadkill!

 

Background-roadkill

Yes, darlin’ – Roadkill! That stinking, rotting mess that we see on the side of the road!

This Swamp Witch don’t mess around! I will use what the swamp and the bayou provide to get the job done! Any roadkill will do. It’s nasty work – but the benefits you reap afterward are more than worth it!

I will baptize the roadkill as your specified target – and then wrap it in brightly colored yarns and ribbons and pretty things! You know… to make the target feel like we are buying into their sham.

Some energy work, a little altar and candle magick are done, as well as a few other things to complete the process.

Petitions are written to the spirits, offerings are made.

The bright colored bundle is placed on a silver platter and paraded around – treated like the royalty they THINK they are.

It’s a party, boys and girls!

But guess what?

That beautiful bright colored bundle of stink is about to get what it has coming to them –

I set that baby on fire! Oh yeah – we talkin’ bonfire!

As it is consumed by flames – all those brightly colored fragile ribbons and yarns begin to melt away – the pseudo identity falling to the wayside leaving behind their true ‘colors’.

Just wait… the best is yet to come.

If you are patient, and observant, you will get to see their entourage of minions leave them… very reminiscent of rats abandoning a sinking ship!

Rats-Running-Titanic-1

Why would they want to hang around a big piece of rotting, festering chaos? They usually don’t want to have much to do with the target after something like this. It creates havoc and chaos in the target’s life. Everything they touch stinks to high heaven! By the time the conjure wears off – they are usually left all alone. With little to no successes, no friends, a shell of their former know-it-all Queen (or King) Bee selves.

This is actually a very effective, and generally pretty long-lasting bayou conjure that I am becoming known for! So, reach out to me if you are still thinking of that person you were earlier. Yeah, Chere, I could see those wheels a-turnin’!

Roadkill 2
Makin' the Roadkill purdy!
Makin’ the Roadkill purdy!

As I’ve said before – I don’t mess around!

I don’t do nice! And I don’t do passive aggressive!

You come to me with your problem and I’ll fix you right up.

At the very least – I will make you feel better and put a satisfied smile on your face!

Roadkill 5
Set that baby on fire!!
Set that baby on fire!!

I have a lot of experience working swamp conjures. I have seen the results with my own eyes. I use a great deal of energy for my workings and tricks – but I always give proper abundance of thanks to the Bayou and the spirits!

Louisiana Mud Mouth

27 Wednesday Jan 2016

Posted by inxplicablethings in General Musings...., Swamp Conjure & Hoodoo

≈ 2 Comments

Bayou, Cajun, Conjure, Dark, Death, Gossip, Hoodoo, Louisiana, Lwa, Magick, Mud, Outdoors, Spells, Spirits, STFU, Swamp, Tapa Boca, Tongue, Witch

 

So, tell me this… what does a Swamp Witch do when she needs to make someone shut the hell up?

Why, Mud Mouth, of course!

My brand of Mud Mouth conjure is solely my own – a little different than most Tapa Boca workings –

Got someone running their mouth and not minding their own lane?

Someone spreading rumors or lies – that is harming you or someone you love?

Let me tell ya, Chere, how this Swamp Witch would handle that. First – you need to get a tongue.

Yes, a REAL tongue.

 Mud Mouth 1

No matter the critter, no matter how you get it, just get it. Choose your time (you’ll know when the time is right) and you use the spirits as your guide. When you take to doing serious conjure – they know you ain’t playin’.

Your desired outcome is what is important here.

Now, everyone does things a little differently.

A Swamp Witch bases her magick and conjure on what is available and what is relevant. A person running their mouth – well, I want to sour their words. Every time they speak about me or my client, I want them to taste a nasty, foul taste – like rotten onions, rancid vinegar, lemons. But, I also want them to hurt themselves when they speak against me. So something sharp like glass shards or rusty nails is appropriate. After I include all the business I need to, I sew that bad boy back up. Sealing that nastiness inside their tongue – along with my petition to the Lwas – and mark it.

Mud Mouth 2

A Swamp Witch then uses what she knows… bayou magick.

Ohhhh, Louisiana, land that I love. The things you give me and the things you let me give to you in return.

Louisiana, as is much of the South, is known for its murky backwaters – those slow moving, sometimes dank and mysterious, waterways that makes the hair on the back of your neck stand up. You wouldn’t dare put your bare feet in them…right?

Well, those of us that call these places home learn to love them. The bayous and swamps are full of life – teeming with creatures, plants and sounds.

The bayou will give life – but she will just as quickly take it away, you can bet your ass on that.

The swamps are known for many things – one of them being mud. Sure, mud is everywhere – but the swamp mud… now that’s a mess. The mud here… it’s different. This mud is strong – resilient – and has a mind of its own. This mud, if left to dry in the sun, bakes into concrete. Absolutely perfect for shutting someone the hell up! I use it anytime I want to fill a targets mouth with dirty mud – every time they speak against me. Pack it full – don’t be shy!

Once I do this – it’s time to give it to the Bayou – she will take it from there. The alligators will eat that crap! They will come along and make a meal out of that tongue! If not the ‘gators, the turtles, the crabs, the crawfish, the snakes, the gar… maybe the Rougarou… but something will have a time with that tongue!

Once back home – no good Cajun would end the evening without a little drink and a little music – in honor of the Lwas, the Spirits, and the Bayou.

This Swamp Witch doesn’t play nice.

I don’t do nice.

And I damn sure don’t do passive aggressive.

I shoot for the throat, the first chance I get.

I have a lot of experience working this conjure – it only gets more powerful each time I work it. I have seen the results with my own eyes – my clients that choose this working are now believers. I expend a great deal of energy doing this… but I always give proper abundance of thanks to the Bayou and the spirits.

I offer this service on my website, www.inexplicablethings.com.

Please keep in mind – this is not the typical Tapa Boca, or STFU. It’s much more powerful than a Stop Gossip or Hush Yer Mouth. This is when you REALLY… REALLY need to shut someone up!

Please feel free to contact me with any questions, concerns or comments.

My front stoop is always open, and the sweet tea never runs out. Ca c’est bon!

Orishas/Lwas 101

02 Wednesday Sep 2015

Posted by inxplicablethings in General Musings....

≈ 1 Comment

Tags

Ancestors, Baron Samedi, Bayou, Blog, Cajun, Cemetery, Curse, Damballa, Ghede, Hex, Hoodoo, Louisiana, Lwa, Orisha, Papa Legba, Swamp, Voodoo

Just a quick little explanation of what an Orisha is.

Orishas (also known as Loas, Lwas, Mysteries or The Invisible) are basically the Gods – or the ruling forces of nature, and all serve different areas of human needs. They embody the traits of those areas in nature that they rule over. It is important to note that there are, literally, hundreds of Orishas – and based upon the type of tradition (Yoruba, West African, Haitian, Louisiana, etc) one follows will determine what you call them. They are divided into roughly 20 or 21 nations, which include Rada, Petro, Nago and Congo. With that being said, there are several that are commonly called upon, offerings made to, etc., and they correspond with Catholic Saints. To further complicate matters, the Lwa also fall into families with surnames: Ezili, Ghede, Ogou, etc.

Family traits are often seen as follows:
Ezili hold sway over the feminine aspects of life
Ghede hold sway over death, but also fertility, which are led by the Barons
Ogou are the soldiers/warriors
Azaka are the farmers/agriculturists

Some of the more common Lwas are:

Damballa-Wedo: very powerful sky serpent in Haitian Voudou. Symbolizes peace and harmony, also known as Papa Damballa and is associated with Saint Patrick. Offerings for Papa Damballa are eggs on a mound of flour, corn syrup, chicken. His color is white. Older, wiser and full of wisdom.

Ayida Wedo: wife of Damballa. Is the rainbow in Haitian Voudou. Symbolizes trees, springs, pools, rivers. Colors are white and blue. She shares her husbands responsibilities in the Sky.

Agwe: Married to Erzulie and La Sirene. Patron to seas, rivers, fishermen, sea captains, pirates. Thursday is his day. He is the Lwa of direction, inspiration and guidance during times of loss.

Yemaya: Mother of life on Earth. She is the guardian of the Sea. Her sacred number is 7. Her colors are aqua blue, white, translucent colors. Her symbols are anchors, mermaids, fish, anything associated with the sea.

Baron Samedi: Haitian Voudou Lwa of the Dead. He is one of my personal favorite! When you watch TV or movies and you see the man with the skeleton face and top hat, usually smoking a cigar – this is who they are attempting to depict. He is loud, rude and full of debauchery – but he is never insulting or disrespectful. He is suave and an extreme expression of individuality, and always fun. His colors are red and purple. He loves Rum and hot peppers.

voodoo

Maman Brigitte: The good Baron’s wife! The equivalent of the Irish pantheons Brigitte. She is the Voudou Lwa of comfort and protection during death – letting go. She loves black roosters.

Obatala: The Supreme God Olodumare – the closest that humankind can imagine… the hand of God. Sky father and the creator of human bodies. The Father of all Orishas! He is often offered snails, as a traditional offering.

Erzulie: Haitian Voudou Orisha of love – protector of women. She takes on many forms from prostitute to fierce warrior to red-eyed weeping crone. She manifests deep passion and seduction. She is the equivalent of a Triple Goddess and she has three husbands (Damballah, Agwe, Ogoun. She loves sweet things – so for her altar, sweet foods, bananas, perfumes, anything fried with sugar.

Ogun: Lwa of iron, war and labor. Almost always used first for war. Ogun clears roads with his machete. Number 7 is his number and his colors are green and black.

Shango: Ruler of lightning, thunder, fire, drums and dance. He is a warrior with exceptionally quick wits and an even quicker temper. He is virility embodied. Extremely hot-blooded, strong willed. His colors are red and white, his numbers are four and six. He is often represented by a double headed ax.

And the last I will mention this evening, my dearest Papa Legba. Also known as Elegbara, Elegua, Eleggua. He is the gatekeeper, the guardian of the cross roads and all doorways. He is the first Orisha approached when you wish to speak or work with any of the others – he holds the keys. Not uncommon – keys in sets of three are his symbol. His colors are red and black and his numbers are 3 and 21. He is a trickster – you had better know what you want, or he will take the long way around helping to get you where you want to be. Believe me… I am speaking from experience. The outcome was rough…but it’s essentially what I asked for. … I just didn’t realize it would come at the expense of other things. Lesson learned and since – he has been my favorite to work with. But then, the crossroads is where I choose to dwell and practice my brand of darker magic and voudou.

il_340x270.430942269_1opk

These are just a few of the more common Lwa. Again, there are hundreds. And this, in no way, is in order of importance, etc. I use them for nearly everything – and they are most gracious… when they choose to be. They do require a great deal of energy and admiration. But it is well worth it in the long run. If you want to learn more about this – let me know, I can gladly give you some websites or reading lists.

Please do not confuse Voudou (Voodoo) with Hoodoo – as they are two separate and very different things. I, personally, practice both – but it has taken me many years to get to where I am.

If you have any questions about what I practice, please do not hesitate to ask. Nothing is taboo with me or my family. (My husband is a demonologist and takes it to a whole new level.) We are open books. We, most assuredly, do not profess to know everything – we are seekers of knowledge.

In my life, I have studied Stregheria, Celtic paths, Dianic, Shamanism, Druids, and many others, but when I embraced my dark side – this is where I became most powerful.

I shy away from nothing –

I fear no karma…

I take full responsibility for what I do.

And I do the things that many other practitioners do not.

There is a time and place for it.

I have cursed –

I have hexed –

I have done what my clients wanted but were afraid to do on their own.

I am a spiritual guide and confidant. I have been on my own personal path for over 40 years – loving every minute of it. So, again, feel free to ask me anything at all.

If you require any of my services – or a special candle or gris gris made for you – please check out my new website at: http://www.inexplicablethings.com

Bayou Living

Greetings and Salutations from the bayou!

So many wonderful things have happened since last we spoke! I apologize for my absence over the last couple of months – but it will not be happening again.

As most of you know – my family and I moved not once, not twice, but three times in the last 6 or 7 months – but we are now firmly rooted (using that term loosely) in the bayou! We purchased a quaint little cottage on a little piece of land surrounded by life and trees and things that will bite you!

11295538_10204193660390898_3162972242267449427_n Front lawn

We are less than a mile from a beautiful lake that is home to the largest cypress forest in the world! It’s amazing here! I spend evenings on the porch or in the trees trying desperately to catch the millions of lightning bugs that put on quite a show each night. I feed the squirrels and vow to have one as a pet eating out of my hand by year’s end! I have a yard full of small toads and bright green lizards that invariably keep me company when I walk through the grass. I even have made friends with a small box turtle that keeps sentinel around the perimeter of the property. I love it here!

11255083_10204428123572331_2063781060679787704_n11222127_10204532626584841_6535986148560154406_n11011735_10204324055610697_7053216569011013767_n

It has taken me a few months to settle in, set up shop, get my personal working altar up and running and begin some semblance of a normalcy that I can call routine. I have chosen a picture window in the living room that looks out towards the dense woods behind our home. This will be where many things come to pass! The hubby is working on an office-type set-up for me, but for now, a recliner and TV tray will suffice.

11695746_10204441938277690_2031249307646187248_n

Things worth noting:

Inexplicable Things finally has its own website! *and the crowd cheers*

This only took about 7 years, but who’s counting?! It’s still under construction, but will most likely be a living, breathing, changing thing anyhow. I am using the site to focus on those fans of a darker nature. Those that need a little help and are afraid of who to ask for fear of being judged. We all could use some help sometimes… and sometimes that means doing whatever is necessary. There are a great many practitioners out there that focus on the good and happy – but what about when we need have that need for justice or vengeance gnawing at us? What about righting a wrong done to you? This will also be a place I can show off some of the bones and more nefarious wares that I stumble across in my travels. My cemetery photography will also be captured there.

So, for those that care to visit, please be sure to check me out at:

    www.inexplicablethings.com

I have completed my studies through Lucky Mojo’s Hoodoo / Rootwork Correspondence Course. It took me just about a year since starting, but I was able to complete it. Many of the things I learned, I already had a sense of understanding, but it also clarified a few things. I have a much better understanding of Hoodoo and Southern Folk Magic now – and I can combine that with my own brand of magic. This only makes me more powerful and able to do more for my clients.

I can say this… since combining Southern Folk magic and Hoodoo with the brand of magic I already practiced, I have seen amazing results. I am looking at close to 100% success rate, right now. I can’t wait to start helping even more! Seems like everyone has a niche, if they can just find it. I think I may have found mine – even if it does require lurking in the shadows!

So – being back down in the South and in particular, the bayou, has been a blessing. More to come!

In the meantime – please stop by InexplicableThings.com

Let me know if you are in need of any services that I haven’t gotten around to listing yet – or if you have something in particular going on in your life that you could use some help with, or just talk about. I’m always here – with an open ear.

More to come soon, my minions! Oh, how I’ve missed you!

Beginnings, Blog, Cajun, Candles, Color, Conjure, Etsy, Hello, Hoodoo, Inexplicable Things, Louisiana, Soy

And so, it’s been awhile, since I was able to properly visit this blog.

It’s been a whirlwind of change and adventure for my family. The husband and I made a quick trip to Louisiana in early January – all on the spur of the moment after looking at property on the internet. We met with a realtor at 10 AM and by 4 PM we were signing papers with a broker!

In late February, we up and moved from West Texas, back to our beloved state of all things Cajun. Needless to say – the previous month had been filled with struggles. With everything from the seller cutting down large pine trees to failed/forgotten appraisals. At the end of the day, we wound up deciding that there were simply too many odds against the property and it wasn’t meant to be ours.

Since then, we have found a place to call home for a bit, and I have been able to get back to my candle craft. I have reset my altar, and increased work on a few things. I am about to complete a professional photography certificate, as well as my certified Hoodoo Rootworking course. It’s a time of completion, as well as the anticipation of new beginnings to come.

Monkey IV

I am finally to spot where I can offer my candle creations on Etsy again. These candles are all natural soy – which is clean burning, offers much fragrance throw and benefits the American soy bean farmer! My 8oz candles come in a high quality, reusable glass tumbler and packaged in a cute gift box.

They are all handcrafted and hand-poured – with love and happiness. They are not mass produced, nor fancy packaged – but they can be blessed to suit your specific needs.

Candles of a darker nature can also be had here – simply for the asking. More to come , soon, my pets!

Be sure to get over to my Etsy shop at: https://www.etsy.com/shop/InexplicableThings

Tarot Readings from the Rougarou

29 Saturday Nov 2014

Posted by inxplicablethings in Divination

Blog, Cajun, Candles, Cat, Conjure, Craft, Dark, Divination, Feline, Louisiana, Magick, Rougarou, Tarot

I am a Witch… and what’s a witch without a magickal familiar?

I was raised on a ranch – around animals and critters of all kinds. But, I can thank my father for my love of cats. As far back as I can remember, I have had a cat in my life. And, usually a Manx.

My current magickal partner is my cat, Rougarou. He is a black and white tuxedo Manx and is without a shadow of a doubt, magickal. He asks almost daily to get to my altar, which is hidden out of sight. Not by choice, but by necessity. My husband and I live in a very tiny space at the moment, and so every square inch is being used. Thankfully, I do have an altar that I do use regularly. He is right next to me whenever I make candles, or do any type of magickal workings. When I make gris gris and mojo hands, he is always right in the middle of the mix. The Rougarou

My husband often uses Runes for divination – and Rou showed an interest at a young age. I thought, why not tarot, too.

I usually wait until he is ready and lets me know… I will lay out the cards and allow him time to choose three. Now when I say choose… I don’t just let him step on them – he has to show a real interest. He will usually lie down and put paws on one. Sometimes he will lick or bite a particular card. He will nudge one. But it is always something other than just sitting or stepping on them. And three seems to be his number.

He is actually pretty adept at this and seems to take it pretty serious. The other evening, Kelly and I asked a particular question and Rou chose our three cards. Sure enough, all three were very in-tune with what we had asked and the reading answered some questions. Rou seems quite pleased with himself.

There will be more to come – along with photos. But if anyone would like The Rougarou to do a three card reading, please ask your questions. We will choose the appropriate evening, light a candle, and photos will be taken.
