"Good luck comes in many forms and is symbolized in many ways -- the lucky
horseshoe provides protection as well as drawing luck, and the heart shines
the way to romance as well as luck in love. One thing about good luck, though --
you know when you've got it, because all your hunches come true, your numbers
all hit, and everything you do turns out for the best.."
Good Luck is an old
formula for ,

Good Luck is one of a family of related formulas that also includes

products. Each one of these old-time recipes is slightly different -- some placing
emphasis on catching lucky numbers through dreams, others on

How you choose to use Good Luck spiritual supplies is, of course, up to you,
but one very traditional
method is to employ them in conjunction with the 23rd Psalm, while praying for all that is
The L I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures.
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul.
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil for thou art with me.
Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies.
Thou anointest my head with oil.
My cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
GENERAL GOOD LUCK SPELL SUGGESTIONS
There are thousands of specific spells that employ a variety of
spiritual supplies. Here are some of the ways you can use
Good Luck brand spiritual supplies to attract the luck you desire.
PREPARATION
You may perform spells for increasing luck whenever you desire. If the need is
not urgent, you can take time to align your spell-casting with cosmic forces and work by a

work. But don't let the
hold you back: if the timing is not right, you can do the work whenever it is best for you.
BATHING WITH HERBAL BATH CRYSTALS
Before dawn dissolve half the packet of Good Luck
tub of hot water. Pour the water over your head 9 times as you
say the 23rd Psalm and name
what you want. Air-dry yourself and collect a basin of the used
bath water, which now has your essence in it. Dress in fresh,
clean clothes, carry the basin of bath-water to a crossroads and
throw the water toward the sunrise in the
East. Walk back home and don't look back.
SPRINKLING WITH SACHET POWDERS
Dust your body, your lottery tickets, or your
racing form with Good Luck
or sprinkle a pinch of Good Luck
in the four corners of the room where you plan to do some
wagering or card playing or dice gaming. Each time, say
the 23rd Psalm and name what you want.
SMOKING WITH INCENSE
Make the Good Luck
into cones (use a twist of paper or a small
, pack the
in with your finger, and turn it
out of the cone) or place it loose on a brazier. Many people find that
keeping a pot of
smoking while they work increases their ability to break through
into a spiritual space or magical way of working.
SETTING CANDLES AS PRAYER LIGHTS
Carve your full name on a green
and dress the
with Good Luck .
As you dress it,
speak aloud your petition, such as, "With the help and grace of God, i'm gong
to win tonight."
You may burn the

want the spell to be ongoing, or ant a light at home to "back you up"
while you g to the casino, card room, or race track to play,
you would be better off to use a fixed and prepared
Good Luck . Write your petition on paper,
cross it with your name written 9 times, and set the
in a safe place, such as the sink,
bath tub, or shower stall, where it will not cause any problems
while you are out.
LUCKY MOJO IS A BRAND NAME
In the 1920s and 1930s, as the manufacture and distribution of
spiritual supplies
became a full-scale industry based in urban areas, the word
"mojo" was adopted as a brand name and trademark for a variety of goods
manufactured by
in Chicago, Illinois as part of his
line of cosmetics, hair care products, pharamceuticals, candles, incense, jewelry, household goods,
trinkets, books, and spiritual supplies
owned several interlocking companies, of which the largest was
, a Chicago mail-order firm that distributed the various
lines of African American
personal cosmetics and hair care products, incuding wigs, which
he manufactured, packaged, and marketed under a number of brand names, such as
Sweet Georgia Brown, Madame Jones, and Paris G as well as the
supplies he manufactured, packaged, and marketed under the line-name
which included
a line of boxed ,
Look at the two very old product-labels above and to the left:
The name Lucky Mo-Jo was used
as a line-band name for
brand of personal fragrance that was made and
marketed by
from around 1926 through the company's closing in the 1980s.
The turbaned Hindu is the logo character for "Mojo Brand Oil" -- a perfumed oil to
feed a mojo bag, dress candles, or anoint one's body -- that was made and
marketed by
from around 1926 through the company's closing in the 1980s.
The turbaned Hindu character who adorned the labels of
goods represented
cross-cultural "exoticism" to the African-American community. Other companies
also had their own versions of turban-wearing character-icons as brand logos --
Psychic Sciences of Columbus Ohio used a turbanned man on a variety of books
and catalogues dealing with spirituality, as well as with stage magic. The
of Memphis, Tennessee, marketed a Hindu Room Spray with a turbaned man on the label. But only
used the name
in trade, both as a name and also in conjunction with the turbanned chracter design.
brand labels carried this Hindu idea even farther by combining the
with the lucky Hindu
on one label. This was before Adolf Hitler came to power in Germany
and used the
to represent the murderous Nazi party, when the
had only pleasant connotations.
Like many American manufacturers of
cosmetics, hair care products, pharamceuticals, candles, incense, jewelry, household goods,
trinkets, books, and spiritual supplies during his era,
descent. As such, he was well aware of Hitler's openly
genocidal program against Germany's
; so several years before the United
States entered World War Two and the Nazi Germany became an "official"
enemy of America's, he removed all of the lucky
images from his
Hindu-themed products, lest they be mistaken for Nazi emblems.
When a trademark has been abandoned -- when the article it once represented is
no longer manufactured or sold in trade or commerce --
for a certain number of years, then under United States patent law, another
company or business organization may adopt that name as a brand or trademark and use it
as its own, without reference to the former comapany's abandoned usage.
passed away in the 1980s. His factory was closed,
his companiy's assets were sold off or abandoned, his fine collection of
modern art was donated to a museum, and that was the end of his work on Earth.
Thus, in the early 1990s, when i, catherine yronwode, went public with my own company, the
as a California-based manufacturer and nation-wide mail-order distributor of
spiritual supplies,
, and gifts, i took up the abandoned
trademark for my own company name, removing the hyphen from
the Lucky Mo-Jo name to render it singularly easier to spell and parse in the digital age.
To a computer, the two character strings are different, so i chose "Lucky Mojo" as the spelling.
(Allow me to explain this to non-technical readers by providing two examples:
[1] machine alphabetization programs consider the hyphen to be a character that comes before the letter "a" and will
produce oddly-sorted results if one name in a series of nam [2]
in our radio ads and in speaking by telephone, we want to be able refer to the company
web site as "Lucky Mojo Dot Com" because it would be awkward and potentially incomprehensible for a customer
service representative or a radio announcer to say "Lucky Mo Hyphen Jo Dot Com".)
Among the first acts of trademark claim i made on behalf of my company, even before
registering the domain name
, were to bring out my own new line of
Lucky Mojo Good Luck candles, perfumed oils, and sachet powders featuring the Lucky Mojo name,
and to bring out my own new line of Lucky Mojo candles, perfumed oils, and sachet powders
featuring both the Lucky Mojo name and the character image of the turban-wearing Hindu.

DRESSING YOUR CLOTHING
Whenever it is convenient for you,
dissolve the remaining half of the

add the liquid to the rinse water when you do your laundry, especially your
underwear and stockings. When you wear these clothes, you will be "dressed" for luck.
CLEANING UP
It is important to properly dispose of ritual remains.

keep the remains around your home. Wrap up any
piece of cloth. Secure and tie it with thread or string.
Bury it in your back yard.

Chinese New Year Traditions: Preparation Time!
Preparations for the New Year begin a couple of weeks before the big day.
This is a fun time full of anticipation and joy as we get ready for the thrill and excitement of the celebrations.
According to the traditions, this is the time to clean the house, prepare food
for the feast and make banners and decorations special for the New Year.
Also important at this time is remembering and paying respects to the ancestors to earn favors and good fortune for the new year.
A clean house to welcome the New Year
Before the New Year comes, it is one of the Chinese New Year customs to clean the house from top to bottom to get rid off all the bad luck gathered
in the previous year.
And after the New Year comes, you cannot sweep during the first days otherwise all the new luck will sweep away!
So one of your Chinese New Year activities will be to... clean your room!
Wouldn't want all that accumulated bad luck
for another year would you??!!
Cleaning house also means settling all your unfinished business to start fresh for the new year:
all your debts,
resolve all quarrels with friends, catch up with homework!!!
Make some Banners with New Year's Greetings
Red and gold banners with New Year messages of good luck decorate the entrances of houses as well as business establishments.
And accordingly, you could decorate the entrance to your room, or put them up in the living room or near your main door.
Red and Gold are lucky colors for the Chinese, red symbolizes vitality of life and happiness, gold represents wealth and prosperity.
You can make your own Chinese New Year signs
with bright red paper and markers or a brush if you prefer.
Here are some instructions to
including the "Lucky Characters" stroke by stroke.
And while we're at it,
here are some more ideas of popular
used widely during this time of the year.
Preparing Food and Putting Away the Knives
On New Year's Day, the families come together to celebrate and everything must be ready for this important fest.
Food must be prepared ahead of time, as one of the popular Chinese New Year superstitions dictates that all knives must be put away.
Using a knife during the first days of the New Year "cuts off" all the good luck for the coming year.
The New Year's feast takes many days to prepare and in addition, food for the next couple of weeks
has to be plentiful as there will be hoards of visiting relatives and friends.
Remember that food is very important to Chinese, but even more so, this is a time of abundance, lots of food signify prosperity for the coming year!
So what needs to be prepared?
Here are some .
The Chinese New Year Flower Markets
The regular flower markets which on a normal day are buzzing with activity, really come to life a couple of weeks prior to Chinese New Year as
everyone prepares for the big day.
Everybody flocks to the markets to prepare gifts and decorate the house with the traditional "lucky plants", these
are some of the most popular:
orange trees
mandarin or kumquat trees
lucky bamboos
branches of cherry blossoms
stalks of pussy willows
Now the markets offer all sorts of merchandise well beyond plants and flowers for the house and people come out for the shopping as well as to enjoy the
spirit of the holiday.
Paying respects to the Ancestors
The New Year Celebrations can only begin after paying respect to the ancestors.
On New Year's Eve, people will go to the temples and pray
for good fortune for the new year.
They bring offerings of food and incense to please the spirits of the deceased so that they might bring good luck.
They come to ask for a special favor perhaps, or just
to appease the spirits if luck hasn't been that great lately.
Even now-a-days people from all walks of life come to pay their respects, housewives, business tycoons, students, shop-keepers... you name it. It is
not unusual to find the temples even in the big modern cities like Hong Kong or Shanghai bustling with activity right around this time.
So now that all the preparations are done with, the long-awaited day arrives and the New Year's festivities can begin!
There are many more
Chinese traditions observed during this joyful time of the year:
