From Association of Independent Readers and Rootworkers
|
The 15th annual Hoodoo Heritage Festival, produced by the Association of Independent Spiritual Churches and staffed by members of the Association of Independent Readers and Rootworkers provides a high-energy space for folk-magic learners, experienced home practitioners, professional readers and conjure doctors, and interested members of the public to get together, socialize, and take hands-on workshops from experienced members of AIRR and other well-known rootworkers.
Inaugurated in 2008, the Hoodoo Heritage Festival was created by Ms. Robin to broaden the scope and outreach of the conjure community -- and the huge amount of interest in hoodoo since then is a testament to her efforts. From 2008 through 2019, the Association of Independent Spiritual Churches sponsored an annual Hoodoo Heritage Festival in Forestville, California. In 2020 and 2021, due to the Covid-19 Coronavirus pandemic, the AISC Festival went virtual and was held online via Zoom. The 2022 Virtual Hoodoo Heritage Festival continues this new format, with 10 virtual workshops over a two-day period.
THE VIRTUAL HOODOO HERITAGE FESTIVAL, 2022
August 13th and 14th, 2022
Great Teachers, True Fellowship, and ... the Goody Boxes!
Our zoom classes in African American folk magic, root work, and hoodoo proved so popular that we will be hosting a third Virtual Hoodoo Heritage Festival on August 13th and 14th, 2022, under the auspices of Ms. Robin, Papa Gee, Papa Newt, and Lady Muse. These Zoom workshops, accompanied by live chat and physical "goody-boxes" filled with spiritual supplies and printed books, teach you practical tricks and tips to take your conjure work to a new level of confidence and knowledge. In addition to spell casting and divination, we also showcase the mystery and magic of world-wide folk religions, and you can also book private readings with members of Hoodoo Psychics during the event.

Doll-babies, dollies, voodoo dolls, and poppets are names given to figural images intended to represent living beings upon whom a spell is to be cast or for whom spiritual work is to be performed. Doll magic is nearly universal, so understanding a brief overview of its history is a good place to start, after which you will receive instructions on how to make dolls from a wide variety of materials, how to ink them to a subject, and how to work them so that, by sympathetic magic, what you do to the doll happens to the person in question; WHAT YOU GET: Electronic Materials (via download):

Cursing or crossing someone requires talent, commitment, and a dash of hate. But is jinxing someone always a bad thing? In this dark arts workshop we will cover baneful magic, removing troublesome people from your life, crossing up your enemies, extracting revenge, and how the art of the hex is sometimes considered to be a proactive form of protection work. To balance the light and dark, Papa Gee will also cover the ways to remove hexes and how to prevent them from coming back. Together we will craft a cursing bottle to toss your enemy “down the river.”

The art of tying knots dates back to prehistoric times. Magical knots are a cross-cultural phenomenon found used on every continent in the world. Magical knots can serve to bind people and things together, to marry, curse, for good luck, to ward off spirits, for prophecy, and for many other purposes. In this workshop, Dr. Jeremy will review:

Proper timing is a tool to help aligning and direct your energy. It is one of the Keys that can assist in successfully executing a ritual or spell. So, Let’s explore the value of time when it is incorporated in our root-work. We will look at various moments of time and learn how to strategically connect those moments to enhance the driving force of energy that is being evoked for your specific intent. Together we will enjoy a journey in time and perform a spell that has multiple timed workings for the same intent. WHAT YOU GET: Electronic Materials (via download):

Working with lodestones, also known as natural magnetite, is a fundamental Hoodoo practice. The ability of these mysterious stones to attract iron to itself via the power of magnetism has fascinated people around the world for millennia, and is broadly believed to help practitioners influence events at a distance. Lodestone altar settings can powerfully draw love, money, and nearly any other thing that can expressed symbolically through sympathetic magic. In this workshop you will learn how to set up and maintain both simple and complex lodestone altars for a range of objectives, and deepen your relationship with these most marvelous spirits of the earth.
