Galangal Root (Alpinia galanga), also known in Hoodoo as Low John, Little John to Chew or Chewing John, is a root particularly associated with legal matters, victory and obtaining a favourable decision.
In ritual preparations, it accompanies workings intended to encourage a favourable resolution to a conflict, gain the support of an authority, assist with legal proceedings or seek greater leniency. Its traditional use is especially connected with courtrooms, where the root could be chewed or carried during a court appearance to symbolically encourage a favourable judgement.
It can also be included in Hoodoo mojos, sachets and preparations dedicated to justice, victory, favour and the favourable settlement of disputes.
Selected and packaged ready for resale, galangal root is an essential product for specialist shops wishing to offer Hoodoo ingredients for legal matters, victory and gaining favour.
