Casting a spell. I heard that with voodoo, you can do this. But I'm not amply sure4. Only about everythingHi Tayloki, and come clean to the board. A few housekeeping substance I did, seek permission for explanation. Seeing that your post was fundamentally asking questions about religion, and not so further an introduction about you compactly, I motivated your post to this forum, "Types of Witchcraft." If you'd breed, you possibly will post another introduction post in the "Member Profiles and Introductions" forum once again, this time actually unfolding us a diminutive about you (ultra questions about Voodoo practice). Or, you possibly will chuck this post as your intro, that's fine, no suspicions. Any, I noticed in your fundamental post you had a choice of religions listed in the header that are closely related to Voodoo. But, because you reply in your post that you are now a Voodoo practitioner, I distorted your header to cogitate that, and deleted the other names because your questions are not about them. OK, sufficient about housekeeping and onto your questions. It's substantial that someone had high sufficient regard for this site that they gaunt you in this directive, but I assurance you don't get disruption with few if any responses. Conceivably that appear didn't know the foundation of the members here (or it was your Wiccan friend who referred you? that would make tactic, as he or she break open control had a lot of responses to his or her questions regarding Wiccan practices). You may or may not control noticed this board is elementary Wiccan. Those here not Wiccan until now elementary deference one or another of a European diasporic council house of magical practices. And, some belong to covens, but by far record here are solitary practitioners. So, that is a brusque sculpt of the common state here. And suggestion I recycled modifiers breed "record" and "elementary," which of course method the brusque draw does not mean "all" members here speak about the dreadfully life. In fact, I would say "ecclecticism" prevails here, lol.As far as Voodoo goes, introduce control been and are some members here who reply they practice Voodoo, in the company of one lush guy who was working toward becoming a houngan (meaning a priest, and a priestess is a mambo, but you doubtless ahead of knew all that). Don't know whatever happened to him. He was pretty fun, nevertheless --Guardian Wolf, I visualize his first name here was. You break open off balance up some of his old posts, as he steadily compared Wicca with Voodoo, the differences and similarities in practices and approaches (intensely the differences, nevertheless, lol). Pronounce from that, not many Voodoo practitioners here, so don't control your feelings take advantage of if you really don't get many responses to your OP. Kinfolk here are very informative and benefit. But, African diasporic religions (haha, let's stop with them, "ADRs" so I don't control to sustain typing that out) are not the direct of this board. I control finished a few posts about hoodoo, but it is not the dreadfully as Voodoo. For explainer, one big fissure is a Voodoo practitioner break open prize African loa and/or Catholic saints (or Catholic saints as "stand-ins" for the loa), as hoodoo is folk magic and not an actual religion, so admiration these dreadfully personages is not prime to the practice.In the last part, regarding your questions, the use of oils, predecessor altars, and spell casting are tall in Voodoo, as they are in other ADRs. These are very robust, tortuous topics, and you're not goodbye to get a lot of information about them in one fiber on a memo board breed this. This is a distinguished topic! Bestow are many, many ingredients recycled in ADRs breed Voodoo, and their planning and purposes won't be caked in one fiber. It's really whatever thing you seek permission control to practice for yourself to learn. The good hearsay is we up in an age everywhere introduce are books about everything, substance that recycled to presently be educated in self-sufficient, from teacher to adherent, from master to tenderfoot, etc. I visualize introduce are so many solitary practitioners today at the same time as the availability of information has knocked out the essential man (i.e., the teacher, master, etc.), so to speak. This has its pros and cons, of course. Bestow are a lot of good books out introduce, but furthermore introduce are a lot of stinkers out introduce, too. Slightly books are seek permission receding senseless, pitifully so. It doesn't elevate further to announce a book straight away, let cut off a blog post, or even to open one's own website. So, nevertheless the back copy of information is distinguished, the mannerism of that information varies ably.Anyway, using your inkling as you read substance, I visualize you possibly will learn a lot of good stuff inoperative books and the internet, trial and mistake, and touch. Defeat the way, you command come diagonally authors with of use information. Be advised that because Voodoo is a adaptation of the Vodoun competent in Haiti, which itself is a adaptation of the vodou competent in West Africa....introduce are every enthusiastic proponents for, and evenly enthusiastic critics opposed to Voodoo. For explainer, this novelist, who wrote a pretty pleasurable, sharply design of ADRs, calls Voodoo an "imitation religion" (see: African Agreed & Diasporic Spirituality). Time on the other hand, novelist Denise Alvarado has passed away an huge lasting promoting Louisiana Voodoo, and has become a independence go-to organism for requisition and command. You possibly will read her website writings and books, and try some of the techniques she teaches, and I bet you'd learn a lot. Any, you break open find a group of Voodoo practitioners nationally, and learn from them. Ultra all, try not to get stalled in all the sectarianism and rants out introduce, and try more accurately to seek permission direct on realization an whole picture of your choose by ballot religion, and record essentially, direct on selecting practices and beliefs you find clever and critical to your life --that's the advantage thing. Let the rest go, or at token argue it all available for now. That's my advice to you, and I assurance whatever thing of this helps. . Statistics: Posted by Kassandra - Thu Sep 25, 2014 3:31 pm
