The experience of visiting Rocky Ridge Farm is probably why I still enjoy museums to this day. It wasn't the souvenirs in the gift shop that interested me - it was being able to walk across the same floors as Laura and Almanzo, to look out of the same windows of their house and see the views they saw, and to actually lay eyes on the desk where she wrote the Little House books. For someone wanting to become a writer when he grew up, it showed me a connection between a real person and a place, and the world she created to share with the entire world through writing. - Gregory Whi

Purpose, faith, focus, and emotion set magical waves in motion. It is something I preach about often to clients - that no oil, candle, powder, or herb will do you any good without putting something of yourself into the work. Rubbing oil on a candle, lighting it, and walking away will not bring you what you want. When I create a batch of oils, I pray over them, asking that they work for whoever receives them. If the oil is of a loving nature, I imagine loving thoughts and request that they enter the bottle. For a money blend, I concentrate on rolls of cash, stacks of coins, and bills being marked 'paid' and ask all Guides and Gods to help make it so. When you use an oil created with this type of focus then combine it with your own, it is like having two practitioners working on your situation."The author is not only a certified clinical aromatherapist but also a professional Tarot reader and rootworker. He and his husband own an herb and metaphysical shop in Tennessee that specializes in Hoodoo and Folk Magic.

A quick reference guide to 124 different herbs, roots, minerals, and ingredients and how they are used in the Hoodoo tradition.Excerpt: "Almost all seasoned practitioners of magic will tell you that using all natural ingredients is of utmost importance. Artificial fragrances and substances have no place in serious ritual or spiritual practice because they contain zero life-force. Herbs, roots, and real essential oils carry with them the heart of the plant they come from, its very essence.This is the very foundation of what is known as 'sympathetic magic.' Sympathetic magic, also known as imitative magic or homeopathic magic, is magic that is based on imitation or correspondence - or both. Imitation is the idea that one thing can represent another thing and, by proxy, stand in its place."
