Origin & Lore

Fast Luck is one of the long-standing named formulas of hoodoo, sold for generations by spiritual supply houses. It is used to bring luck and money quickly, and has a particular reputation among people who play games of chance.

Gamblers in the hoodoo tradition were known to rub a lucky oil into their palms before picking up dice or cards.

Fast Luck is one of the formulas sold through mail-order catalogues of early twentieth-century spiritual supply houses, alongside other gambling formulas aimed at card players and numbers players.

It is still among the most commonly worked luck oils in hoodoo, used both by gamblers and by shop owners hoping for a fast run of trade.
