Group Angelic Glamour Spell 🌙
Limited Openings - First Come First Served
IN HONOR OF MY BIRTHDAY MONTH ♓️
I’ve decided to do a little throw back for my friends and patrons who love glamour magick.
💕 Inspired by the Star tarot card this upcoming group spell will imbue patrons with the powerful energies of angels Jophiel (patron of beauty, art and creativity) and Amiel (the patron of magnetism, attraction and charisma) to enhance their physical appearance, sensuality and attractiveness to all genders, bestowing a heightened aura of allure, enchantment and charisma. Carefully selected plant allies of rose, catnip and more will be charged, blended and activated, with the appropriate blessings, oils and candles, perfecting the work.
Like a star … you’ll command attention.
All eyes will be on you!
🌙 ALL SALES ARE FINAL!
🌙All metaphysical services are intended as entertainment only & are not a substitute for medical or mental health services.

Wake up it’s the 1st of the month …. 3/1/24
Happy Venus Day 💕 Life Update
As a black, neuro spicy love witch, I’ve always struggled a bit with the shop, blog, group and managing a business especially when I'm not in a creative space but finally I've been inspired again.
So let me reintroduce myself again. I started this blog almost 4 yrs ago and it took off really quickly, gaining lots of followers overnight. This was right around COVID and there was a renewed interest in Hoodoo and love magick around that time. I’ve mainly posted vintage photos, wrote articles and shared spells and had so much fun interacting with all of you.
I started off 2023, grieving a difficult breakup and reflecting on lessons learned about myself, my former relationship, his spiraling addiction and uncertainty about the future. On top of that, I got to the point where I quit working at my high paying but super intense civilian job that was leaving me constantly exhausted, giving me severe panic attacks and driving me crazy.
I decided to take a sabbatical and reconnect with my body, self and my craft. I’ve always struggled a bit with imposter syndrome and the past few months have been difficult but healing for me as I reconnected with spirit, the elements and my spiritual allies. I finally got my spark back and found a good creative space after working with the spirits of Mercury and Venus.
Some of that inspiration has come in the form of creating new spell oils. The past few months I’ve had multiple recipes come to me repeatedly. After struggling to figure out the logistics, finally I can start testing oils out on myself and a few other volunteers before I place them in the shop. It’s been such a cool but confusing process, I wanted to share with all of you, if you still care 🤣 what I’ve been up to.
The first spell oil that I’ve been working is called Love Uncrossing, inspired by myself, other women, friends, clients, SW’s, crazy experiences and some of the strongest people I know. In traditional Hoodoo, an uncrossing is used to spiritually repair and fix an situation or individual with crossed conditions. To be crossed is to be blocked up, stagnant, unlucky, jinxed or even hexed. As a practitioner for hire, I’ve come across crossed conditions for love work so often, I know it’s fairly common.
Experience has taught me as a devotee of Venus/Aphrodite and the Venusian Arts that real genuine love doesn’t always come easily for everyone. Life is full of wonders but often unfair. Whether it’s the grief of a bad breakup, the intense pain of heartbreak, aggravating soul ties, deep traumas, negative cords an attachments or simply never ending bad luck, love does not play fair … but it can be.
For my SW’s friends who regularly work the club, do other forms of s-work or are ex industry, I’ve found that protecting and clearing the sacral, life force energy regularly can protect your spirit, energy and mental health, shielding you from intense burnout. I’ve charged the oil to assist with this. Even if you aren’t in the industry though, regularly cleansing and protecting your life force/ sacral energy can help with bringing you more balance and stability, within yourself and others.
For survivors of SA & abuse (physical, emotional, and s*xual) this oil is also spelled to assist with healing and overcoming any traumas associated with that. As a survivor myself, I understand the unique difficulties that come with processing light and heavy traumas, so I worked hard to create a spiritual blend that covers a variety of issues.
*** this is not intended to be a substitute for proper mental health services. Item is intended as curio only.
After carefully gathering the right herbs, I’ve been crafting and charging the oil for the past few days.
I wanted to create something energetically restorative, with abundant free flowing energy, that also cleared stagnant energy. It needed to be cleansing but also help with dissolving blockages in all matters of love and relationships. Than the oil was imbued with strong protections. I found this part to be really important because it’s easy to be re-traumatized, especially if you’re dealing with heavy traumas which sets you back and impedes your progress and healing process. It’s kinda like picking at or having a scab ripped off accidentally. Likewise if you want the best results in love magick, you can’t leave it up to chance.
The last thing I did was enchant the oil to cut and clear out any negative cords, soul ties and spiritual attachments and then spell it with a soothing potent healing energy using the highest quality lavender and other herbs so the healing process wouldn’t be super painful or stressful.
For those who are spiritually sensitive like myself, spiritual hygiene is a important part of our regular routine. The oil will serve as a multipurpose spiritual primer, to remove, cleanse, heal, attract and grow more love for themselves and genuine love from others. It can be used generally, to maintain your spiritual hygiene in all matters of love and relationships or be set for a variety of aforementioned intentions. The oil is blended to work on five spiritual levels, the auraric field, soul, energetic/sacral/lifeforce, mental, and physical.
I hyper focused on this project because I want you guys to love it as much as I do. I also wanted to give something back to the community, I cherish. I know you guys appreciate my passion and attention to detail.
Before launching the spell oil, it will be beta tested on myself and a few other volunteers.
Thanks for reading and catching up with me. What do you think ? Is this oil something you need ?
Shoutout to my spirit team for sending me the downloads and recipes.
With Love, Gratitude & Magick

Oshun has no connection to Haitian Vodou or the Lwa Ezili Freda or her veve.
Biography:
During the life of the mortal Osun, she served as queen consort to King Shango of Oyo. Following her posthumous deification, she was admitted to the Yoruba pantheon as an aspect of a primordial divinity of the same name.
When Olofi created the world, the heavens and earth he would communicate through the Ceiba Tree. But man defrauded the confidence of Olofi and he separated the heavens from the earth. From the beginning Olofi had given man everything to become humankind. They had not plowed nor planted anything. For this man began to die of hunger. Oshun, seeing this transformed into a vulture and took a full basket of bread and black-eyed peas to the heavens. There she found Olofi with hunger, and she fed him. Thankful for the food Olofi, asked what is it that she wanted in return for her favor. This is where she interceded for mankind. Olofi, said those that defrauded him, he could not do anything for. But, for her offering of the food, she would find halfway back down to earth a man that could help her. Upon reaching halfway down Oshun came upon Orisa Oko who farmed and saved. Oshun grabbed all she could that he had grown for hundreds of years that he gave her. She returned to the earth, with all she could carry. And fed her people. For her act of generosity, they crowned her queen.

She is the patron saint of the Osun River in Nigeria, which bears her name. The river has its source in Ekiti State, in the west of Nigeria, and passes through the city of Osogbo, where Osun-Osogbo Sacred Grove, the principal sanctuary of the deity, is located. They say she lives in a cave that still exists today in Ijesa, Nigeria north towards the river Nile. Although this Goddess is adored in many parts of Yorubaland, it is in the City of Osogbo, where her river passes, where she has a larger group of believers.
Considered the owner of all rivers, she was raised on the bosom of Yemaya, who gave her the fortune of the sweet waters to be her home. This is found in the Odun of OseChe, where Oshun, in her efforts to help the world loses her fortune. After this she began to wash clothes at the river and people would pay her with coins. One day, her coin fell in the water and the current took the coin to the sea. She began to beg Yemaya and Olokun to return her last coin, for it was all she had to buy food for her children. The gods were moved by her story and pulled the great seas back till Oshun could see the riches at the bottom of the seven seas. But Oshun only picked up her coin that she had lost and turned away. The Gods not understanding why she would only take her coin and nothing else, said;
"For your honor and honesty, we will give you part of our riches and the river as your home, but never again give it all away."
Oshun also gained the power of Egun in the Odu Irete Yero . Oshun lived with Ayaguna, but she left him because of the Igbin he would eat , this was a taboo for her. She also lived with Osain, Shango, Shakuana, Orunmila, Agayu, Orisha Oko , Oduduwa and Inle.  Oshun is the only one that can go as well to Oru.
She is the second wife of Chango and despite being the goddess of love suffers much heartbreak when Chango will not leave Oya, who some consider to be his true love.
