The Hoodoo Culture By Mama Yana

Although this is not my first post on Hoodoo, I've been posting on Hoodoo for over a decade, maybe longer; I've lost count. This is one of the first posts I created on this page. Next year will be this page's five-year anniversary. I created this page because I wanted a designated place to post educational Hoodoo content I'd never seen before on social media. I'm not talking about a "how-to" page but a page that was centered on the culture and true essence of Hoodoo, such as its tales, customs, cultural figures, and spirits. I thank everyone for following and supporting. As I'm approaching five years, expect some changes and new things coming. I love you...

Mirrors are portals and can capture the spirit, memories, or reflection of anyone who looks into it. It's said the soul is located in the reflection. They reflect your reality and the inner you including your darkest feelings about yourself. However, since they're such spiritual tools they can be used to capture positive spiritual energy as well or reveal the supernatural.
Here are some Hoodoo beliefs about the mirror 🪞
*If death occurs especially in the home cover your mirrors 🪞 and pictures are turned towards the wall. The mirrors 🪞 can tarnish and it's bad luck to capture the reflection of the corps in the mirror. The person's soul who has passed can be held in the mirror.
*A baby shouldn't be allowed to look in the mirror before they're a year old or else they may have problems with teething, be tongue-tied, crossed-eyed if they see their father for the first time in the mirror 🪞. Or grow to be ugly or unattractive.
*It's bad luck for two people to look in the mirror at the same time or the youngest may die or a ghost may be seen.
*It's unlucky to look into a mirror after sundown.
*If you break a mirror you will get bad luck, but you may reverse the bad luck by running the broken pieces under water to wash away the bad luck. Take the pieces break them up and toss them away.
*If you go to the cemetery at 12 noon or midnight with a mirror 🪞 and a pair of scissors ✂️, hold the mirror 🪞 up at midnight, and drop the scissors ✂️ you will be able to see the reflection of the person you want to talk to. The siccors help with protection and cuts away doubt and fear.
*If you look in a well through a mirror on the first day of May you will see your future lover.

To whom it may concern and friendly reminder:

Hoodoo New Year: Jan 1st
Yoruba New Year: June
Zulu New Year: September
Akan New Year: July -Oct (Festival dates)
Ethiopian New Year: September 11th
Ancient Egyptian New Year: July (some focus on September 11th )
Ostara German Pagan New Year: Spring Equinox or March
Chinese New Year: February
There are many New Year dates, and there's no need to argue about which is the "real" New Year. Doing so disregards cultures and traditions all over the world. The New Year is not "technically" during the spring, fall, winter, etc. The New Year reflects the culture and people who celebrate it, which makes it memorable to them.

I forgot to send out the reminder of no washing clothes this Friday or you will wash someone out of your life. According to Hoodoo it is taboo to wash on the Friday before New Year's and New Years Day.

Hoodoo New Year's Custom says, "Empty pockets mean a year of poverty. Always have something in your pocket, purse, or wallet."

According to Hoodoo omen, a warm or green Christmas indicates a fat graveyard and an extended winter. I give my condolences to those who have lost their loved ones. I extend my wish that those who are still here continue to be protected against the spirit of death and sickness.

The notion of Santa Claus and his reindeer soaring through the sky may be rooted in the phenomenon of reindeer ingesting psychoactive mushrooms, which inspired individuals to drink reindeer urine in order to share in the hallucinatory
experience. To date, reindeer still get high off these shrooms. The name of the shroom is Amanita muscaria. It's the same shroom from Super Mario Brothers.

So yeah Santa was on psychedelic shrooms he was tripping with Rudolf. That's why Rudolf nose was glowing red.

Areas of influence:
"Psychedelic" refers to a state of altered consciousness, often induced by certain substances, characterized by vivid perceptions, hallucinations, and an "expansion of consciousness also known as trips".

• Changes in perception: Visual and auditory hallucinations, synesthesia (where senses mix, like hearing colors or seeing sounds), and altered perceptions of time and space.

• Altered states of awareness: Changes in focus, awareness, and the sense of self.

• Intense emotions: A wide range of emotions, including joy, wonder, fear, and confusion.

That's why he was all jolly and seeing everything glowing. He took some trips with his favorite reindeer, flying all over world. The man was high on reindeer p*e p*e. He was drinking some weird chamber Lye huh?
