THE STORE, BLACK CAT CURIOS™
At the crossroads of natural and supernatural™ stands Black Cat Curios. Herein, you will find authentic and traditional spiritual goods to support and remediate all manner of life's challenges. Each product we make is created utilizing recipes that have been developed over lifetimes and are formulated to be both powerful and effective. We use only the best ingredients for the best results—roots, herbs, essential oils, therapeutic salts, symbolic curios—and if Spirit says a certain oil needs some glitter, then it gets some glitter!
THE PRACTITIONER, MADAME JA
I grew up in Texas, Indiana, Ohio, and Arizona. My grandmother and great-grandmother were gifted seers and practitioners who hailed from the tobacco fields of North Carolina. As an adult, I can now identify all of the other workers who surrounded me in my formative years; I learned from them, as well. And if dreams are to be believed, I am not only gifted for this work, but also anointed. I have 27+ years of dedicated practice/study in North American Folk Magic, European Witchcraft, Herbology, Osteomancy, Tarot, Reiki, and Feng Shui. I do not hesitate to draw on other modalities or traditions, as needed. I am ever-learning and ever-evolving.
My ancestor altar sits behind me as I work. In this way, they literally and spiritually have my back. They and other allies guide me through the creation and execution of all that I do. As they are a part of me, I am also an extension of them—in this world and this work. My store is a way in which I honor them. As I am like my ancestors, my products are like me—much more than expected, intense, commanding, and creative.
Love, Peace, and Chicken Feet,
Madame Ja
