Intention of this Blog

Welcome to my blog! As you all know Hoodoo is a closed religion (and practice to some), so I choose not to share workings and metaphysical properties and uses of roots and herbs in Hoodoo publicly. However, there is more to hoodoo than just spiritual workings, there's southern culture, there's physical healing, remedies, “slave medicine” and so much more. I am creating this blog to share knowledge of African American Home Remedies and Herbal Healing that manifested in the south during the transatlantic slave trade. This type of knowledge connects us to the other side of rootwork, the side where we extended our healing to the physical body and not just the spiritual one. It bridges our connection to the rich culture of the south as we fought to preserve our ways of healing in new conditions and environments. None of it has to be put into practice, you can just take it in. I'm simply here to share the knowledge of things I've learned and will be learning along the way.
