Just what is MoJo?

[Sparky Kronkite]

Anything like JuJu?

Or more like Vibe?

Or aura?

Or, or, or - what?

What is MoJo?

Only thing I know is that it works.

 

[LovetoGiveRoses]

I thought it was something Jim Morrison drank.

 

[Sparky Kronkite]

Maybe it's simply a modification on......

MoFo - short for Mother Fucker.

Maybe it's an element in Vodoo.

Mojo is voodoo

The phrase ' got my mojo workin' means, that I got my lucky charm protecting me.

Mojo & Juju are terms associated with vodoun or voodoo, and down here in LA, you also hear the word gris-gris [pronounced GREE-GREE] more often than either of those.

They're used as generic terms for some kind of magical spell or fetish (like a "mojo hand" or a "gris-gris bag"). It was explained to me once that "mojo" is not "good" magic, while juju is.

I thought mojo was good magic. I thought they were all charms?

 

[Sparky Kronkite]

I've heard the word/term MoJo for years.

Since first hearing 50's Blues from the Masters of their day - but never really got curious enough to actually ask what it meant.

From their inflection I always presumed that MoJo was meandt to be their penis or sex drive.

As for Austin Powers - I find those only mildley amusing and only see them with my young sons far after they have left the theaters.

But wow - if you all know so much.........

How lond does it take a Camel to fill up after it dehydrates?

Yeah, as I said, mojo is used to refer to a fetish or charm.

And I think you're tryin' to give me the evil eye, aren't ya? (Which is mojo. I think.)

 

[bluemuse]

You're all wrong. Mojo is the dog next door.

Mojo is a monkey that can't shoot it to ya straight. He is always saying things like, "My name is Mojo JoJo because that is the name that I have been given that is was given to me the name Mojo JoJo because it is I who have been given the name Mojo JoJo."
