I’m Granting Wishes Today
Fun July 20th, 2010That shriek you heard this afternoon? That was me! I got my voodoo doll! An authentic New Orleans voodoo doll complete with instructions.
Isn’t it the coolest-looking voodoo doll you ever saw?! Oh, it’s the only voodoo doll you ever saw? Me too!
Because I’m a giver, I’m going to let one lucky reader benefit first. All you have to do is drop your wish in the comments and I will randomly pick one winner and see what I can conjure up for you.
Now remember, I told you I would never use the doll for bad, only for good. So none of that “world peace” or “fix the BP oil well” nonsense. Never gonna happen.
If you’re curious, here’s what the instruction paper said I have to do:
This doll is handmade by local practitioners and is “all-purpose.” In New Orleans, we use dolls as focusing tools to bring positive changes into our lives. First, get a personal item (worn clothing, hair or nail clippings, etc.) from yourself or another individual you wish to affect and pin it to the doll (Please be careful not to stick yourself!)
During the waxing moon phase, use the white pin when drawing positive influences to yourself (love, prosperity, etc.) and during the waning moon phase, use the black pin when sending negative influences away from yourself (oppressive people, bad energy, habits, etc.) Remember your karma & try to stay positive.
Now, while holding the doll, in your mind, picture the result you desire (creative visualization). For example, if you need a car, see yourself driving that car. If it’s love you seek, picture yourself with the type of person you desire, doing things you enjoy. You get the idea!
Do these focusing exercises daily, for our specific purpose, until your result is achieved. Remember, true magick (sic) takes time and effort, so don’t give up. Whenever possible, do your magick outdoors to get the power of Mother Nature on your side. You may also add candles, oils, drawings and any other personal items you feel will assist you to best creatively visualize your goal.
When your needs have been met, be sure to thank God, the Universe, the Spirits, or yourself (depending on your perspective) for the Blessings you’ve received. Always have an “attitude of gratitude.” We thank you for your patronage and wish you good luck & wisdom in all of your magickal pursuits!

Isn’t this fun?! I can’t wait to try my voodoo doll out on someone. I promise I’ll try very hard to grant your wish.
* Please don’t send me your hair or nail clippings. I’ll make do without. Really. Don’t send parts of you.
Get wishing!
Stumble it!

That is so cool, Kathy! It reminds me of these little dolls we wore in pouches around our necks when I was in high school. My best friend and I collected them and named them all.

I was just starting to think that I should have read this post before I made fun of you in your most recent post when I got to the part about “doing only good”. Maybe making fun wasn’t a good idea, because I want to ask you to conjure me up a new pickup truck and a 30′ camper to go with it.

Cool.
I have two things, one for you, and one for me.
For you, I want you to have less anxiety and fear.
For me, I want to be more generous with what I have already been given.
Can you voodoo that for me, please? Thank you!

Hmmm while I have many things I could think of wishing for I have learned that those things earned are treasured more. So, I guess what I would wish for most is to have the energy to continue my current course and pass my state boards at the end of this year. If that is too much to ask, a good cup of coffee always perks me up !

I’m happy you got your doll; I know how you’ve wanted it so! No wishes for me… but thanks for the offer! I can’t wait to see what happens with the random person’s wish!

Great guide! Attitude of gratitude is very important. I get up every day and am very grateful for what I have, who I’ve met, and the opportunities I have each day.
