Curiosities

Curiosities

Magical curios are materials chosen for their form, origin, or place within a tradition. Rose of Jericho, roots, seeds, snake sheds, and other curios can be used in mojos, on altars, in bottles, and in folk magic preparations.

In Hoodoo, the word curio refers to materials whose meaning comes from a specific working. Choose them according to the rite, tradition, and intended purpose: a root for a mojo, a material for a bottle, or an object to place on the altar. The Aeternum selection lets you give each curio a specific place in your preparation.

For roots and seeds, also browse Barks & Roots and Seeds & Berries. For mojos, the Charms & Mojo Bags collection offers a more direct context.

Hoodoo Books help place these materials within the methods they belong to.
