crossroads mojo POPPETS

The word poppet is a doll used in folk-magic. In folk-magic and witchcraft, a poppet is a doll made to represent a person, for casting spells on that person. These dolls may be fashioned from such materials as a carved root, grain or corn shafts, a fruit, paper, wax, a potato, clay, branches, or cloth stuffed with herbs. The intention is that whatever actions are performed upon the effigy will be transferred to the subject as in sympathetic magic. If the spell is a curse, the poppet is worked in any number of ways, including piercing it with pins, nails or shards, binding it with cord, covering it with hot candle wax, or hanging it by the neck.

Poppets are often used for healing purposes, promoting health, finding love, creating happiness and good luck, for protection, for binding, cursing, and for manipulating energy in numerous other ways. Our trademarked poppet designs are inspired by the various Spirits of the crossroads and are unique designs available only at Crossroads Mojo.
