Could Juju Oracle please be made legal? It's a Mwangi themed oracle, so it fits in the campaign. It most likely would be Osirian due to location and outlook, and "antiquities-obsessed Osirian necromancer" are explicitely spelled out in the PFS guide as being allowable.
All the spells Juju gives are legal. The Bone mystery gives many of the same revelations and is legal. We even have legal Undead Lord clerics.
The only real special thing the Juju brings into PFS is non-evil undead, and giving oracles some wizard spells. Oh, and a ton of fun flavor.
Thus, I return to my request, can Juju mystery please be made legal?

Non-evil undead do not exist in Golarion. Adding it in, especially since the mystery has a huge mistake in it, would be really weird. It'd be like adding that kobold / wyvern race as a playable race. Non-evil undead don't exist in Golarion.
(Yes there are very, very, very rare exceptions, but they are not Juju.)

Until further comment by Mike, I will assume this is the reason they aren't allowed.
If the reason the Juju mystery isn't allowed is because there are two different creative visions of Golarian. The first is represented by JJ's and has undead that are always evil. The second is represented by the author of the Juju mystery and has undead that are sometimes not evil. I guess the second also would be represented by the Attuned to the Ancestors trait in the PFS guide.
If PFS is weded to the first vision of the campaign, then the Juju mystery could be made legal simply by specifying that the creation of undead is always an evil act.
If PFS isn't weded to the first vision of the campaign world, then there shouldn't be a problem making it legal.
Either way, making it legal would open up a cool mystery.

Honestly, my mind is boggling a little bit at the thought that it'd be anything but the vision of the creative director of golarion. Only official world choices are allowed in PFS, so I suppose the question comes down to whose word is more official when it comes to golarion: the freelancer who wrote the Juju Mystery, or James Jacobs?

My point is, it's a very cool mystery. If something doesn't work, then Mike commonly changes it so it does.
For example:
The Juju mystery, except for the the Spirit Vesel revelation, is legal for play
The Spirit Vesel revelation is changed for PFS play. Necromancy spells do no lose their evil descriptor, and all undead created are evil.
