Happy Hoodoo Heritage Month! (A thread) 🧿
Protip: When you see a black man on the street in red/black (especially if he’s standing at an intersection) make a point to give him some money. It doesn’t matter how much.
Hoodoo is NOT something that you mix in with other things or you can be an “eclectic” witch. It’s an ATR and not just some magical practice. It’s all or nothing. If you’re not venerating, healing, and willing to get dirty, it ain’t for you.
Some say Hoodoo doesn’t have an initiation. I have to disagree with that and say it does. Your elders (and even your dead) WILL test you and you will know if you passed or failed. They’ll let you know.
Last night I learned that the whole diaspora has an expression for “I wish a mf would” and they share the same vocal inflections too. We truly are all the same.
