Working Conjure: A Guide to Hoodoo Folk Magic: Sen Moise, Hoodoo: 9781578636273: Amazon.com: Books

I didn't want the book to end. Huge fan, very informative. I never write reviews but I felt it was owed.

This is a well written book that with each chapter gives true praise to 35 years of experience from the author. Working Conjure begins with a brief history of how it was introduced to the American Culture but quickly jumps into the core of how working conjure is performed. Each chapter identifies a specific area of conjure from the importance and significance of both the materials required and the ways in which they are used. One does not need to have a prior knowledge of conjure to receive all the values this book contains. Working Conjure does well to identify the true nature of working with hoodoo and conjure through clear explanation of each step for why each is performed and does a perfect job of identifying true practice from misconceptions of movies and fictional stories. I am fortunate to have meet the author and have attended classes of his and this book is like have a personal class from him whenever I need a refresher, my only wish is to see more volumes from him.

Recipes are excellent with detailed instructions and written well.. good and informative read.

This book is awesome. It is written so intelligently and in such a folkish kind of style. The rituals are so easy to follow. I mean unless you don't mind people watching you kneeling down and praying psalms at the crossroads or hanging voodoo dolls upside down in the cemetery. . . lol. What I like most is how he avoids trying to sell "mysterious" hoodoo oils and washes with mysterious names and instead gives you detailed instructions on how to do them yourself. In short, the book provides an excellent summary of the philosophy or principle behind hoodoo and then provides practical rituals that anyone can do or incorporate in their daily lives. I rate it A .
