Hey everyone! Allow me to introduce myself and my enchanting shop; The Crooked Cypress. I’m Evangeline, a Louisiana native with roots as deep as the cypress trees that sway in our bayous. My magical lineage spans generations, weaving together a rich tapestry of traditions.
At The Crooked Cypress, we blend a gumbo of mystical practices—a fusion of Voodoo, hoodoo, Appalachian wisdom, and folk magic. Picture me stirring a cauldron under the moonlight, infusing it with more herbs, dirt, and water than ever before. These ingredients, lovingly hand-harvested from our local surroundings, form the heart of my craft.
What can you find in our mystical emporium? Let me share a glimpse:
Candles: Each one flickers with intention, casting shadows that dance between realms.
Poppets and Dolls: Tiny vessels of energy, stitched together with purpose.
Gris-Gris Bags: Little sachets brimming with secrets and protection.
Oils: Bottled whispers of ancient forests and bayou spirits.
Herbal Blends: A symphony of leaves, petals, and roots, waiting to be brewed into potent elixirs.
And the kits—oh, the kits! They’re like treasure chests of arcane knowledge. Imagine handwritten rituals, spells, and incantations passed down through time. When you hold one, you cradle the wisdom of our ancestors.
Mark your calendars: On April 1, 2024, The Crooked Cypress will emerge from the mist, both on eBay and Patreon. I invite you to step into our world, where the Spanish moss hangs low, and the spirits whisper secrets. Whether you’re a seasoned practitioner or a curious seeker, there’s a place for you here.
Support our small business, and together, let’s explore the magic that thrives deep within the swamps. 🌿🌕✨

Dirt: A Gateway to Magic
The Significance of Dirt in Magick
Dirt, seemingly mundane and ordinary, holds potent magical properties. Across various cultures—Hoodoo, Norse, Celtic, and Indigenous traditions—dirt has been revered for centuries. Here’s why:
Earth Element Connection: Dirt is intrinsically tied to the Earth element. It symbolizes fertility, prosperity, and stability.
Clay-Like Substance: When mixed with water, dirt can transform into a clay-like substance. Ancient peoples used this knowledge to create body adornment paints in shades ranging from brown to white to red ochre. In fact, red ochre stands as the oldest known form of face and body paint.
Sympathetic Magick with Dirt
Sympathetic magick involves using ingredients that symbolize your intentions. Dirt becomes a powerful tool when collected from specific locations aligned with your purpose. Let’s explore some types of dirt and their uses:
Graveyard Dirt:
Purpose: Graveyard dirt serves various purposes.
Collection: Traditionally, seek out the grave of a person whose energy aligns with your intention. For instance:
Prosperity Spell: Visit the grave of a banker or wealthy aristocrat.
Benefic Spell: Avoid graves of those who suffered extreme trauma or illness.
Malefic Magick: Choose a grave related to the fate you wish to induce.
Collection Etiquette: Take flowers as an offering to the deceased, providing a legitimate reason to collect dirt.
Uses: Hexes, curses, communication with the dead, and other spells.
Your Front and Back Yard Dirt:
Purpose: Excellent for protection, peace, and safeguarding family and property.
Collection: Gather dirt from your own yard.
Uses: Add it to protective powders, floor washes, spell bottles, and more.
Crossroads Dirt:
Purpose: Ideal for road opening spells and underworld journey work.
Collection: Hand-collected from crossroads, it connects you to the gatekeeper at the crossroads—a crucial point for descending into the underworld.
Uses: Mix it into mojo hands, gris gris bags, powders, or stuff doll babies and fix candles.
Practical Applications
Here are ways to incorporate these magical dirts into your practice:
Protective Powders: Sprinkle them around your property and over thresholds.
Floor Washes and Sweeps: Cleanse, ward, and protect your home.
Spell Bottles and Jars: Infuse them with the energy of dirt.
Remember, these are just starting points. Feel free to explore and adapt, infusing your own symbolism into your magical workings. 🌿🌟
Hand-Collected Magical Dirt Varieties: Coming Soon to eBay and Patreon

Becoming a witch is a fascinating journey that involves connecting with the natural world, exploring spirituality, and embracing self-discovery. Here are some steps to guide you on your path:
Learn about Different Magic Traditions:
There’s no central school of witchcraft, so research is essential. Explore various styles:
Wicca and “Green” Witchcraft: Popular in the United States, Wicca emphasizes nature-based spells, meditation, and the use of crystals, herbs, and essential oils.
Neo-Paganism and Druidism: These traditions focus on history, seasons, and rituals.
Regional and Esoteric Witchcrafts: Research local practices based on your culture and connection to place.
Remember that some practices are “closed,” requiring formal initiation or birthright to participate1.
Self-Study and Research:
Read books, articles, and online resources about witchcraft. Understand different magical traditions and their practices.
Practice Rituals and Spells:
Start with basic rituals, such as grounding, meditation, and visualization.
Experiment with spells using herbs, candles, and crystals. Keep a journal to record your experiences.
Connect with Nature:
Spend time outdoors, observe the seasons, and learn from the elements (earth, air, fire, water).
Develop a relationship with the natural world and its cycles.
Develop Intuition and Psychic Abilities:
Meditation and mindfulness can enhance your intuition.
Explore divination tools like tarot cards, pendulums, or scrying.
Join a Coven or Community (Optional):
Some witches prefer solitary practice, while others thrive in a coven or community.
Connecting with other witches provides support, guidance, and shared experiences.
Create Your Own Path:
Adapt witchcraft to your needs and preferences. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach.
Trust your instincts and follow your unique journey.
Remember, being a witch is about personal growth, respect for nature, and embracing magic in everyday life. Enjoy your magical exploration! 🌙🔮✨

🌟 Delving into the mystique of Voodoo and Hoodoo! 🌟
Ever wondered about the distinction between Voodoo and Hoodoo? Let's unravel the mysteries! 💫
🔮 Voodoo: Rooted in West African spiritual traditions, Voodoo is a religion with deep spiritual and cultural significance. It encompasses a belief in a supreme creator, spirits, and ancestors. Rituals often involve ceremonies, dances, and the honoring of spirits through offerings.
🕯️ Hoodoo: Originating in the Southern United States, Hoodoo is a folk magic practice that blends African, European, and Indigenous American traditions. It focuses on herbalism, potions, spells, and charms to manifest desired outcomes. Hoodoo practitioners often work with elements of nature and incorporate Christian symbolism.
While both Voodoo and Hoodoo share roots in African spirituality, they manifest in distinct ways, reflecting the diverse cultural landscapes in which they developed. Embrace the richness of these traditions and explore their profound depth! 🔍✨

Step into the enchanting world of the Louisiana swamp, where beauty and the macabre intertwine in a mesmerizing dance. Amidst the murky waters and twisting vines, there lies a certain allure that captivates the soul.
In the heart of the swamp, where shadows play hide-and-seek with the light, there's a peculiar beauty to be found in the eerie silence and the haunting calls of unseen creatures. The Spanish moss drapes languidly from ancient cypress trees, casting intricate patterns of shadows on the water's surface, while the mist shrouds secrets that whisper of bygone days.
Amidst the tangled undergrowth, the remnants of forgotten tales emerge: decaying remnants of old cabins, rusted remnants of long-abandoned machinery, and the skeletal remains of once-majestic beasts. Yet, even in their decay, there is a certain beauty – a reminder of the relentless cycle of life and death, of nature's inexorable march.
And then there are the creatures that call this place home – the alligators gliding stealthily through the water, their eyes gleaming like shards of obsidian in the moonlight, the haunting cry of the barred owl echoing through the trees, and the elusive fireflies that dance among the shadows, their bioluminescent glow casting a spell of enchantment.
In the Louisiana swamp, beauty and the macabre converge in a harmonious union, inviting us to embrace the darkness and find solace in its depths. It's a place where the veil between the living and the dead grows thin, where every whisper carries the weight of history, and where the mysteries of the universe seem to unfurl before our very eyes. So step into the embrace of the Louisiana swamp, and let its haunting beauty envelop you in its spell.

Religious practitioners have been anointing themselves and their tools since at least as far back in time as ancient Egypt, and certainly in other cultures too. Anointing comes from the Old French word enoindre, which means “to smear.” Anointing is usually done with an oil or fat but in some cases blood is used. In witchcraft we anoint to consecrate, to inaugurate, and to cleanse. Some traditional cultures anointed themselves with animal fat to gain the powers of that animal and in aboriginal Australia, there’s evidence that the intestinal fat of ancestors was used to anoint to gain a dead person’s characteristics and strengths.
Currently working on an assortment of ritual oils to add to Facilier and Friends CO. Grand opening!
