Origin & Lore

Judge Be For Me belongs to the court case branch of hoodoo condition oils, made to win the favour of a judge. It is meant to be worn: on the hands, the throat and the wrists before entering court. It is also used on candles and name papers in the days before a hearing.

Court work in hoodoo is often done on the body, so that the one standing before the judge carries the working in with them.

Wearing an oil into court is one of the most direct court practices recorded in Southern conjure, alongside chewing galangal and placing papers in the shoe. In the early twentieth century, spiritual-supply houses in cities such as Chicago, Memphis and New Orleans sold named condition oils by mail order, each label promising help with one specific need. Court formulas were a reliable part of that stock.
