FAQs
What is a showbiz botanica?
A botanica is a spiritual supplies store. The word itself comes from a word regarding plants & botany. The term botanica grew in popularity for people of color who historically needed supplies in spiritual work. It can be a place for spiritual work, community, or even ceremony. Some people use botanicas in the same fashion as a church. Clients seek botanicas to buy spiritual goods that may not be available in other stores. People shop books, ritual oils, prayer powder, crystals, amulets, herbs and spiritual services in botanicas. Our botanica is special in the fact that we help clients manifest their dream career, dream performance, and dream form of income. We call ourselves a showbiz botanica because we want clients to feel center stage whether they work on or off a stage. Our clients can learn the importance of beauty magic, money manifestations, ritual work for their career and growth in spirituality with our store. The Blue Dollar provides costuming, conjure items, spiritual supplies and spell work tools.
What is a psychic medium reading?
A psychic medium reading is a spiritual conversation that sometimes includes contact with different deities or different realms.
What do I need to do after booking a psychic medium reading?
Consider preparing a list of questions you would like to ask of your ancestors, spirit guides, or loved ones on the other side during your reading. If you do not have questions, Lolo Lavish will channel as much info as she can from your ancestors or spirit guides regarding different areas of your life such as love, friends, family, career and even finance. Feel free to set aside some tissues in the case that you grow sensitive to something or need to wipe away any tears. Water is also suggested to keep by your side during the session since contact with the spiritual realm could make someone feel tired or thirsty. Please designate your chosen appointment time to finding somewhere silent to sit. Do not book your appointment during work or when you have to watch children. It is best to have silence and somewhere comfortable to sit for your session. Sitting in public spaces may not be ideal because you might need to discuss something sensitive during the reading. We do not advise for you to allow friends or family members to listen in on your appointment. Sometimes secrets or hidden agendas of people in your life are revealed during the reading.
What questions am I allowed to ask during a reading?
Clients are free to ask about friends who have passed away, relatives who have passed away, coworkers, employers, hidden agendas from people in their life, advice from ancestors, advice on love, advice on family or even advice into running a business. The reading should center around the client's life and not someone else's life.
What is the difference between a written and phone appointment reading?
Written readings are emailed and finished after the email is sent. Clients may ask an initial question at the time of booking where the purchase page indicates to list a question but multiple questions may only be asked during phone appointments. If a client seeks clarity on a written reading, they will need to book a phone appointment. We do not provide back and forth communication on written readings. Clients can ask multiple questions during phone appointment readings. We suggest you record your phone appointment or take notes of what is said verbatim. It is hard and sometimes impossible for a psychic medium to remember information from a reading.
May I book an in-person reading?
Clients can schedule in-store appointments or request house & business visits.
What is Mermaid Milk?
Mermaid Milk is our renowned seduction ritual oil. It is a sweetening prayer designed to help people hone their inner mermaid. Use it to anoint lockers, dance bags, mojo bags, candles, ritual candles, spell work, wallets, legal documents or even the soles of your shoes.
Can I make my own ritual/anointing oil?
Clients are always free to create their own ritual home for their own work or protection or personal power. People seek ritual oil created by someone else when they desire the gifts of that practitioner or need someone's energy placed into the oil. Purchasing someone else's ritual oil is also about needing someone clean from your problems. If you are under heavy spiritual attack or undergoing problems, the spiritual work you do or ritual oil you create could be negatively affected by it. The same applies to blessed coins or medallions. You might benefit from having someone else bless your items if you are undergoing heavy problems. It is the same as trying to cook with dirty hands. The dirt will make dirty food.
How do I know if I need spell work done?
Whenever you are struggling to fix something physically, consider handling the issue spiritually. Spiritual work helps people avoid jail time, physical fighting, and getting arrested. You can pray you way into or out of a situation rather than arguing with someone or making threats. You do not have to fight or fix anything alone. You can ask your spirits and ancestors for the help you need.
Can I just do my own spell work at home?
Everyone should perform their own spell work throughout their life but whenever you are under negative work or spiritual attacks, you will need someone else's help. There is power in numbers. Sometimes, people seek the help of a practitioner because the practitioner holds gifts that the client does not. Some practitioners are specially gifted in certain areas of life such as as justice or money or fertility.
What do I do after I purchase a spell?
You will receive photo footage of the work and a reading into the outcome you can expect via email. We do not provide video footage of the spells performed.
May I request for my spell work to be performed on TikTok?
No. We do not accept video requests from clients. We do not want clients private information identified on social media because commentators are insensitive and some of our clients are seeking help away from stalking/harassment. We do not want people to find out who a client books with. Who you receive spiritual work from should remain a secret. You never know what ex friend or karmic is watching your social media.
Will my name be carved into the candles or written onto petition paper each time I pay for spells?
No. Sometimes names are written onto petition paper and it is photographed for the client but we do not always perform the same prayer. The color of the candles or supplies used in your spell could be different from someone else's dependent upon your spiritual goal.
Why do I not see the results I desired from a purchased spell?
Prayers are not promises. We are not able to promise specific spiritual or physical results. We cannot replace medical or legal aid. We ask that clients are honest when booking with us. Include information on your issue and your spiritual goal. Down below you can find common reasons why clients may not see physical results from rituals we perform :
- Prayers are not promises
- Rejection is sometimes redirection
- The client hid their true intentions
- The client concealed truth
- The client did not take the spiritual advice provided in their session
- The client employed multiple practitioners for the same job
- The client is under spiritual attack & needs a cleansing to see results
- The client is in panic mode or searching for vending machine results
How do I know if I am under a spiritual attack?
People experience spiritual attack differently. For some people, spiritual attack looks like nightmares or insomnia. For others, spiritual attack is financial drought or the loss of friends. Random illness that nobody can explain have also been coined as witchcraft. Spiritual attack can come from jealous coworkers, ex-boyfriends, former spiritual consultants, or even strangers on the internet. People often book psychic services to receive confirmation on where they think the attack came from.
What do I do if I am under spiritual attack?
Consider booking an in-person appointment to receive a cleansing or book a phone appointment to ask how to cleanse yourself.
What is the difference between a home and business cleansing?
Request a spiritual cleanse for your home when you want to remove negativity energy in your house. Request a spiritual cleanse in your place of business to remove negativity energy out of a professional building.
Can I perform my own house and business cleansing?
Yes. You should consider a weekly spiritual cleanse over yourself, your children, your car, your place of business and your home. If your schedule does not permit a weekly cleanse, consider a quarterly cleanse through the year.
Can I pay for services in installments?
All services have to be paid in full at the time of booking.
Will The Blue Dollar or the owner ever hex me?
We respect clients and their spiritual court too much to cause harm to them. We do not threaten or show malice toward customers for booking with other businesses. We do not hunt our clients and intimidate them into spiritual decisions. Our goal is to show people the positive paths they can take & applaud them when they take one. We do not believe people should be forced into their faith.
