For those who have ever felt the call of magic, or unexplained ties to the Universe or ancestors, this guide to Brujería is an essential introduction to the practice for beginners stemming from the Latinx, Hispanic, and indigenous traditions.
Being Bruja is a comprehensive and inclusive guide focused on introducing the practice of Brujería to curious young mystics. Learn about the brief history and origin of the practice and the word bruja, along with the tools needed for the practice, beginner rituals, how to connect with the earth and your ancestors, spiritual cleansings and protection, and how to incorporate Brujería into your daily life. While embracing Latine/Hispanic mystic traditions, this book makes it clear that anyone can identify as a bruja, brujo, or brujx. Readers will come away with a further knowledge and appreciation of our connection to the Universe, as well as practical rituals, like how to perform beginner baños and limpias.
