Thanks for taking the time to read about me, Samantha Corfield (Mambo Sam), and my Samantha’s Original™ products. I am Rev. Samantha Corfield (formerly Reverend Samantha KAYE, Matthew and I were married on November 18, 2005). I appreciate the fact that you want to find out just who I am! I know it is very difficult to try to get to "know" someone this way. However, I am hopeful that telling you about myself and my life will help us to become acquainted with each other. I am mostly known as Rev. Corfield or Mambo Sam (the "Mambo" title is from my Haitian Vodou initiation as a Mambo Asogwe - Bon Mambo Feraye de la Kwa Daginen, formally!). I was Rev. Kaye for years, and I know that it is taking some getting used to for people to call me Rev. Corfield! :-)
There is some confusion about my name, and I would like to clear that up! My "legal" name is/was Debra J. Edwards (now Debra J. Corfield since Matt and I got married). However, in my New Orleans Voodoo family tradition, our initiations are handed down matriarchly. In my case, my grandmother, Samantha Kaye Parker, was my initiatory "mother." In our tradition, we use the name of our initiatory mother (especially if they are passed on, which she is) in our spiritual work. You may already know stories about probably the most famous New Orleans Voodoo Priestess, Marie Laveau. It is rumored that she lived 150 years! Well, no, but her daughter and granddaughter did use her name, as is tradition. Thus, I chose to use "Samantha Kaye" as my original spiritual worker name long before I was ever online doing this! In my family, I was always called, "Little Sam" anyway because I am so much like my grandmother. After Matt and I got married, I now use the Corfield surname. So Samantha is the name I chose to use and it is what everyone, including all of my family, uses for me. So hopefully that clears up any confusion about my name.
When I first began this website in 1995 there weren't many websites like it! Now there seem to be thousands of websites promising the magickal sun, moon, and stars to you. Well, I won't do that, but I will tell you about myself, my family, my philosophy, and what I hope to accomplish for and with you. Because there is so much anonymity on the Web these days, it is sometimes hard to feel like you are truly part of an "internet family" like ours. In order to try to find a way to make this an interactive, healthy magickal community, we have instituted a number of communicative activities. In this way we hope to connect with our clients on a very personal and spiritual level, even though we may never meet face-to-face! To that end, I would like to tell you a little bit about some of the features of our Customer Benefit Package:
About our Product Line: Our products were designed, crafted, and originated within my family over the last 50 years. My mother and father, grandmothers, and great-grandmothers were the true originators of the concept of these products. The names of our products are based on old New Orleans tradition and, for the most part, they are the original names that were used in my family. What they used to offer out of their homes and shops in the French Quarter in New Orleans, Matthew and I are now proud to offer via the Internet. (I often wonder what my grandmother would think of this!! She didn't even like television, I can't imagine what she would think of the Internet!) What we have to offer you is our family line of products, a proud tradition and heritage. I am constantly striving to improve what I offer and I know you will be happy with what you receive. It always has been and will continue to be my practice to hand consecrate every product that I send to you! No matter WHAT product you receive from us, I guarantee that it has been blessed for you in the traditional New Orleans Voodoo tradition, with some Haitian Mambo blessing thrown in there, too! (More about that further down.)
It is always our intention to try our best to help you reach whatever goal you have in mind. If you are wanting to get a lost love to return, trying to get a job, or need more money in your life, we always want the best for you. We always strive to make the journey easier for you in any way we can possibly do so. We want to know you and we want you to know us. Clients always seem surprised that I remember them many years after we first worked together. It my business to know you, know you needs, and try to help you. This business, our clients and their needs, is what we do full time. This is no "sideline" for us! We encourage you to get to know us, to visit our offices if you are ever in our area, and to let us know how we can help you.
Rev. Corfield and youngest grandson, Preston. Biographical information:
I was born in New Orleans, Louisiana on Christmas Day, 1956. My family lineage of New Orleans Voodoo was very much a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My grandmother, on my mother's side, was from Tennessee and practiced what she called "mountain magick." This consisted of root work, herbal potions, and folk magick spells. I consider myself extremely blessed to have been brought up in such a unique atmosphere. Of course, I was also baptized Catholic, and attended Catholic school! The funny part about New Orleans, and Louisiana in general, is that no one there would find that the least bit unusual! The Voodoo Boutique and www.SPELLMAKER.COM are now a subsidiary of Sheer Goddess ®, our new company of Bath and Body Care Products. All charges on your credit card statement will now show up discreetly as "Sheer Goddess." There is nothing to indicate anything about voodoo on our packaging or billing! Nothing else has changed, everything else is the same as it ever was! We are also proud to announce our newest website Everything You Need! This is a website dedicated to every day needs as well as special needs such as holiday gifts, hard-to-find items, and much, much more. We hope that you will consider us for your gift-giving needs this year as well as other needs throughout the year. As always, we appreciate your continued business! Another exciting feature is that we have just installed a new customer-service chat system that I hope you will find much easier to use than the old one! You can even request to have us call you in person, if you desire. Please look at the left hand menu on the pages where you can click to chat with us. 2011 marked the beginning of our 16th year in business on the Internet!! We are still a small family-owned business taking pride in our hand-crafted products; still mixing our own herbs, oils, etc. using our family traditions. We are very proud to offer you our product line and thank you for taking the time to read this. Lastly, we encourage all potential clients to carefully read our Terms of Service before purchasing anything from us. We feel it is extremely important that you have all information possible before choosing to work with us and usage of this website constitutes an agreement to those Terms of Service, so please read them! :-)
Love, light, and peace to all,
