A beginner-friendly guide to Conjure as it has been practiced in the Deep South and passed down through the generations. Living Conjure is a beginner's guide to Conjure written by an authentic Conjure woman with over four decades of working experience. Starr Casas learned Conjure the old-fashioned way: at home, from her relatives and ancestors. She would like to share that knowledge with a new generation of practitioners. In this foundational book, Starr leads readers step by step toward establishing their own practice, from setting up altars to finding the right tools and creating baths, washes, and powders. Because of Starr's great experience, long-term practitioners will find topics of interest, too. Included in the book are venerations to the ancestors who passed down this knowledge and introductions to the culture and customs that brought these workings to light. "If you've always dreamt of sitting at the feet of a backwoods grandma as she teaches you the ways of folk magic, your wishes have been heard. Mama Starr is a true living encyclopedia of down-home rootwork, and reading Living Conjure is like sitting down at the kitchen table with her as she explains the old ways that were handed down to her. If you've been curious about Conjure or mystified by magic, this book will gently take you by the hand and give you the tools, rituals, and remedies to take control of your life on your terms." -Madame Pamita, author of Magical Tarot, The Book of Candle Magic, and Baba Yaga's Book of Witchcraft
