Mexican Soccer Voodoo

Thelema Mexican Soccer Voodoo Image
Mexico has a long history of losing to the United States in World Cup soccer competitions. But this year they have enlisted the power of black magick in order to break their losing streak - with a little help from Radio Shack.

An advertisement in the sports daily Record on Tuesday invited fans to clip coupons and redeem them at their local Radio Shack store for a voodoo-doll likeness of a U.S. player. The hope was that a little black magic might help Mexico break a decade of futility on the road versus its northern neighbor.

"Help end the losing streak so Mexico advances," the ad read.

An illustration showed a pair of scissors slicing off the leg of a doll in a U.S. jersey that was bruised, crying out in pain, leaking stuffing, and stuck with pushpins.

"We imagine a group of young people gathered around the TV supporting Mexico and applying punishments to our rivals so that the team can qualify," Record said in a statement.

There is no word yet as to whether or not the American team will respond with their own etheric assault, but if anyone from the team would like to hire me to cast a counter-curse go ahead and shoot me an e-mail. My rates are not that unreasonable, at least from the perspective of a large sports franchise with millions of dollars in the bank.

Naturally, Radio Shack downplayed its first foray into the realm of dark sorcery.

Daniel Paz, marketing manager for the newspaper, told The Associated Press the promotion was a lighthearted attempt to make next month's rivalry game more enjoyable for fans.

"It's a toy," Paz said. "There's no intention of being anything serious."

But that's just good public relations. I mean, who would want to buy a potentially haunted stereo? That is, aside from me.

I suppose we'll find out when the match is actually held whether or not this voodoo ploy is successful. It may be "a toy" and all, but if Mexico wins it likely will owe some of its success to the power of the paranormal. After all, giving you an edge is what magick is "supposed" to do.

No Voodoo Zone

No Voodoo Zone Image
Yesterday I felt bad because I failed to give all the single gals a heads up about the Feast of St. Agnes. Today I feel bad because I talked about the whole thing.

One of my readers was concerned that the separated brethren, who already have enough fodder (in their minds) to think that Catholics are a bunch of wackos, will point to the egg eating magic dream eve of St. Agnes and say, "I told you so!"

I think my reader makes a very good point. By the time you've picked up a garter belt and traveled to another town and are singing your way through sewing your right stocking onto your left garter belt, we, over here at Catholicism, are looking a little foolish.

That's not good. The Catholic Church is not foolish.

So let me ease your mind a bit.

To begin with let's mind our own garden and not worry too much about what the separated brethren are doing over there in separate land. So what if they have a problem with fasting all day and eating a salty egg before bedtime to dream of your intended? They have a problem with the Blessed Mother and Transubstantiation, too! Go ahead and enjoy your egg. You're probably starving after fasting all day.

Furthermore, let's make a clear distinction between faith and superstition.

When you have a little statue of the Infant of Prague in your home, and you honor the lessons of the Child Jesus and how He was cared for from birth in His home with His family and then you pray for financial stability (stability being the operative word here, we're not talking about lottery jackpots or a heavy payout from the Colts beating the Patriots), that's faith.

When you stick a statue of the Infant of Prague up on your refrigerator amongst the cereal boxes and vitamins and that bottle of Metamucil because your old Aunt Theresy told you if you have a statue of the Infant of Prague in your house you will never want financially, that's superstition.

Get the difference?

So I don't have a problem with someone praying for the intercession of St. Agnes while they fast all day. I hope that girl is thinking about what kind of man she really needs...a good Catholic one...and what marriage is really all about....raising Catholic children...while she fasts all day. I would hope that by the time she bites into that egg she will really have thought things through.

Dreams aren't superstitions. Ask St. Joseph. The Holy Family would never had made it out of Bethlehem if not for his dreams.

Poor St. Joseph, the wacko.

Maybe, the travel/stocking method is a bit much....but really, if it all causes you to extend your thinking while you shop and travel and sing and sew...all the better. No wonder you get a kiss to boot!

The Terrifying Murderous Cult Of The Leopard Men

| Saturday, March 17, 2012 | |

The Terrifying Murderous Cult Of The Leopard Men Image
Yesterday, I blogged about a nefarious juju man currently operating in London called The Leopard Man. Below is a section from my book HUMAN SACRIFICE covering the history of the "Human Leopard Society" of Sierra Leone.

WARNING: IF YOU ARE OF A NERVOUS DISPOSITION DO NOT READ.


THE LEOPARD MEN


One of the earliest underground killing cults to be documented became known as the Human Leopard Society of Sierra Leone, on the west coast of Africa. The cult focused on the creation of medicines made out of human entrails. As long ago as 1607, a visitor to the region wrote of fierce, man-eating tribes who lived in the interior of the country and dressed as leopards.

In 1807, coastal Sierra Leone became a British colony, but the leopard societies were so secretive that the authorities didn't get wind of them until 1891. A bill was quickly drafted outlawing the society. It stated: "Many murders have been committed by men so dressed to resemble leopards and armed with a three-pronged knife commonly known as a leopard knife."

The bill made it a crime to possess a leopard skin shaped to resemble a leopard, a three-pronged knife and an unusual native medicine known as "Borfima". The police were given powers to search for such items without a warrant. The chiefs of the inland tribes were subject to harsh penalties if they failed to report Leopard Society activities. But the human leopards were not intimidated by the might of Britain. In fact it turned out they'd got allies: in 1902 a Human Alligator Society was uncovered, which worked in parallel with the leopards. An extra prohibition was duly added to the bill, outlawing the wearing of alligator skins shaped to resemble the reptiles.

By 1903 it became clear that many chiefs in the region were involved in the cults. In the resulting crackdown, four hundred tribal people were arrested, some highly placed, but few were brought to trial due to lack of evidence. As a result, more legislation and prohibitions were brought in. A special court of three European judges was also put in place to try offenders. Armed with these extra measures the government succeeded in bringing the activities of the Leopard societies to a virtual halt within a few years. By 1912, seventeen cases had come before the court: 187 people were charged with murder, of whom 87 were given the death sentence.

But why did the human leopards kill?

Well the answer partly lay in Borfima. The ingredients needed to make this native medicine, which was typically kept in a tight leather pouch, included the white of an egg, the blood of a cock and a few grains of rice. But the key elements were human fat and blood - which could only be obtained by murderous ritual. Borfima was considered very powerful medicine; it could bring power and riches, but could also be used as a protective charm for anyone unlucky enough to be hauled before the British court, with its alien notions of justice.

Leopard societies were selective about who they killed to extract the fat and blood needed for making Borfima. The victim had to be a freeborn girl (not a slave or captive) and over fourteen-years-old. Ideally the girl would be the eldest child of the family who provided her. In later years, a man or boy was considered acceptable, but a girl was still the preferred choice. Making the native medicine also took center stage during the long and complicated initiation into the Human Leopard Society. Chillingly, the would be initiate had to produce a sacrificial victim from his own or his wife's family.

Once a victim had been chosen, the human leopards hit the forest and marauded throughout the night, imitating the roar of their totem beast. At a specified time, the victim was made to walk along a special forest track. Leopard men kept watch on both sides of the track for the girl's approach, hiding behind the dense walls of creepers that thrive in the humid jungles of Sierra Leone. After the victim passed the watching leopard men, the silence would suddenly be shattered by a deep-throated growl. Then the leopard man who had been designated executioner would leap out of the undergrowth and - with a lightning strike - would tear out the girl's throat.

His companions would then carry the girl off into the depths of the undergrowth, where her head would be hacked off and the liver, heart and entrails torn out. Once the leopard men had carefully examined the liver for signs that the body would make an effective Borfima, the corpse was divided into four quarters. These were then carved up and wrapped in banana leaves and handed out to each of the leopard men. Lastly, the girl's face would be cut away so that her remains would not be recognized.

This was the most common form of the ritual. But it differed from area to area. In one particularly grisly ceremony, the girl was not killed straight away, but forced to sit under a tree. The tribal chief who led the sacrifice, which was intended to bring good fortune to the tribe, would then sit astride her shoulders. Those present all laid a hand on the chief or the victim to make a psychic connection. After this the chief prayed that good medicine should come from the offering and slashed the victim's throat. Her body was then cut open and the other participants tore out the intestines.

Victims sometimes survived the ordeal; but alive or dead, she would be taken to a platform outside the chief's hut and left there tied to a post. The following morning the body would be taken back to the jungle to be cut up. The chief received the hands and feet, and a small portion of the flesh was given to the mother and father of the victim.

Voodoo Ive Got Friends On The Other Side

Voodoo Ive Got Friends On The Other Side Image

Wow, looky here, I've never ever, ever mentioned this GIVEAWAY in my blog...never ever. So you should...ignore it? WRONG! Please enter away and please note it may even be extended because of college madness, I'll be sure to keep you posted Now, onto my post! 
 For today's look as a continuation of my Disney Villains look I did *drumroll* Dr. Facilier from "The Princess and the Frog." And I have to say I absolutely looooove his character, his voice, his song, ahhhh! I even sang his song "Friends on the Other Side" for an audition :3 which worked out nicely with my edging on baritone voice for singing, hahai'mamanwhat?hhahaha...anyway, this was kind of a more...creative interpretation of his character as opposed to a literal one.  Close-up on the eye The Doctor himself God, it was sooooo hard to get a decent picture of this, curse my ability or lack there of to capture a decent picture, stresss. Anyway, I got a lot of my inspiration from Dr. Facilier's shadow (hence the shadowing/mirroring of the eyelashes) and some good old fashioned voodoo potions and things associated with all that jazz. The color palette is derived from the character's colors (purple mainly).  I used Eyeko's purple eyeliner and Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner in actually every purple color they make alongside liquid liner in Perversion. The purple glitter was of the Nyx variety and the lashes are from EyesLipsFace. The "smoke" was because of this character's frequent use of smoke and even glittery smoke :D. I chose feather lashes because of some voodoo items that were in Facilier's parlor. Voodoo for real creeps me out to no end, but when using cute feather lashes, it doesn't seem as scary...

My lip color was a mix of NAR's Lipstick in Funny Face and Revlon's Orchid with an unnamed (for real) Nyx Gloss that was magenta in color. I darkened my eyebrows with NARS' Eyeshadow in Night Bird. All of these villains have such dark brows!

On another note, my blog keeps on getting referred by a goth dating site...what hell? I have some major confusion over that one. Maybe it's because I'm into the Disney Villains, haha. And otherwise I have been sups busy packing for college and buying for college and reading books when I should be looking at and memorizing monologues...whoops? And only two more days of work, eeeek! Summer went by oh so quickly. Until my next post...

History Of Voodoo

History Of Voodoo Image
First let me say that Voodoo Spells are real. Anyone man or women(white or Black) wanting to become an apprentice on voodoo spells and magical incantations should practice safety and use my article as a guide to invoke the black magic of the healing God Obeah, some of you with roots in the West Indies and Africa may already have the dormant skills required to tap into this mystical energy,so you have a leg up on others, you may ask why is the magical tradition,strength,and potency of Obeah so much stronger in places like Jamaica, Haiti, and to a lesser degree New Orleans Voodoo?  Because Jamaica is one of three most powerful centers of mystical power on the face of the earth,and the most powerful in the western hemisphere.If you want a custom magical spell cast contact me with your desires.(information remains confidential) I bet you did not know that the greatest Obeah man in the history of the West Indies was none other then Bob Marley a powerful Duppy Conqueror, the rastafarian movement originated partly because practitioners of the ancient art wanted to organize a movement against the English Imperialists. Bob Marley in his ancient wisdom implanted his mystical Obeah power into every single one of his songs. "If you listen closely you can here, Its the sound of a natural mystic coming through the air" Bob Marley words in one his more famous songs.The fact that he chose music to chanel his mystic powers magnified the potency of the obeah spell. To this day if you listen to a Bob Marley song you will be cast in the spell of the hypnotic music which is why alot of europeans have discovered that using canabis as a spring board to heighten those hypnotic effects can increase your dream like other wordly experience when listening to the music.

Divinatory Esoteric And Occult Tarot

Divinatory Esoteric And Occult Tarot Image
A friend of Prof. Crow and mine is a well-known British academic. He's a specialist in pagan religions and practices. I don't give his name as his university wouldn't care for him associating with outlaw voodoo men! Not publicly, anyway. But he likes me to publish some of the things he says. Last night he got on to the subject of playing card divination. Here's what he said:

"You should check out Foli's turn of the century book on playing card divination. [Click here to download the ebook]

It's worth reading because he talks about the 32 and 21 card decks that were traditionally used by the hoodoo crowd and still used by Hispanic diviners. Using a full poker deck is pretty recent.

Now you will see a lot of adverts in the States these days for 'Spanish Card' reading or La Baraja Espanola. This is what Hispanic spiritual readers use and again it has be absorbed by some hoodoos.

Spanish cards have 52, 48 or 40 cards, depending on the type of deck you purchase. The Suits (palos) in the Spanish deck are divided up into four groups, 1. Copas (Cups), 2. Oros (Coins), 3. Bastos (Clubs), 4. Espadas (Swords). Just like the minor arcana of tarot cards.

The pip cards (the lower numbered cards) are numbered starting from 1 (Ace) to 9. They do not have 10. The court cards are numbered from 10 to 12. Card number 10 is called La Sota (Jack or Knave depending on where you're from); card number 11 is called El Caballo (Knight or Horseman); and card number 12 is called El Rey (King). There is no Queen.

Finally, unlike the face cards in the American playing card deck, the Spanish face cards are usually single headed, while the American deck is double headed."
