Traditional Conjure Woman Momma Starr

MOMMA STARR

My name is Starr and I’m fifty-eight year old Conjure Woman living in Texas. I was

born in the mountains of Kentucky, in a small place called Rockcastle County. I was

born at home on August third at midnight. I’m a mother of three and have five

grandchildren. I was raised in a family of workers, although they did not call what

they did Hoodoo. My mother who raised me comes from Johnsonville, South

Carolina. My mother was raised in a small community called Prospect. It consisted

of a church, a general store and it sits at a crossroad. My mother was a wonderful

reader; she didn’t need cards to read a person. I’ve been a reader since I was

sixteen and started learning about healing when I was eighteen. I took on my first

client when I was around twenty-three, before that I worked for myself and family.

I’ve been a teacher off and on for over fifteen years. I’m a traditional conjure

worker; there is no new age twist to my work. I'm a writer and have self published

six of my own books. I am a partner in Conjure Crossroads, we put on the

Folk Magic Festival in NOLA every year.
