The Odu Ifa is the sacred foundation of the Yoruba religion, a collection of 256 verses of profound wisdom and prophecy used for divination. Each verse, or Odu, is filled with mystical and ethical teachings, serving as a framework for understanding the universe. Performing an Odu Ifa divination is a complex process carried out by a trained priest—a Babalawo (for men) or an Iyanifa (for women). The priest invokes Orunmila, the Orisha of wisdom, using sacred palm nuts or a divination chain called an Opele. The resulting combination of sacred markings generates one of the 256 Odu, and the ...

The Orisha religion is a major world faith, standing alongside traditions like Hinduism, Buddhism, and Christianity. Originating in West Africa, archaeologists suggest it has been practiced since at least 500 BCE, though it is likely much older. During the transatlantic slave trade, the Orisha faith spread extensively to the Western Hemisphere, taking deep root in the Caribbean and Brazil. Today, it is known by many names, including Isese (the tradition), Cuban Ifa, Lucumí, Santería, Regla de Ocha, Candomblé, Umbanda, or simply the Orisha religion. After over twenty years of studying ...

My name is Brujo Ryan and I am a traditional witch and spiritualist. Today, young witches have lost the occult secrets of practicing astrological magic combined with medicinal / magical herbalism. That means doing spiritual work in harmony with the celestial powers. Witchcraft is an art and a science because real witches experiment with and test the effectiveness of their work using the scientific method. Real witchcraft is not woo woo, it produces real life effects. That’s because the first witch was the woman who went out into Nature and discovered there were herbs that could ease her ...

This book explores the spiritual tradition centered on the Nganga—a potent term whose meaning evolved dramatically as it traveled from Africa to the Americas. In many Bantu-speaking societies of Central and Southern Africa, a Nganga is a central figure: a traditional healer, diviner, and spiritual authority. Often called a priest or spiritual doctor, the Nganga uses a deep knowledge of herbal medicine, rituals, charms (nkisi), and divination to diagnose and treat physical, psychological, and spiritual problems. They are respected keepers of ancient wisdom who communicate with the spirit ...

En la brujería moderna, una Bruja del Caos es una practicante de la Magia del Caos, una práctica mágica dinámica y flexible que surgió a finales del siglo XX. Este camino se distingue porque rechaza completamente las estructuras rígidas y los dogmas que se encuentran en las formas de magia más tradicionales. El principio fundamental de la Magia del Caos es ver la creencia como una herramienta. Los practicantes adoptan temporalmente diferentes sistemas de creencias—y el poder psicológico que estos conllevan—para lograr un resultado deseado, descartándolos una vez que ya no son ...

Vodou, Vodoun, Vudu, and Voodoo has captivated the imaginations of Americans for centuries. Everyone is familiar with New Orleans Voodoo and its images of black candles, chicken’s feet, and skulls meant to invoke fear and awe in outsiders. Voodoo as practiced in the United States has become an amalgam of witchcraft, necromancy, rootwork, conjure, and a catch-all word for any type of magic that seems dark and ominous. In the Caribbean, however, Voodoo is spelled Vodou and is practiced as an African Traditional Religion (ATR).

Puerto Rican traditional healing practices have evolved from a mix of different religious traditions found on the island and in the United States.

In modern witchcraft, a Chaos Witch is a practitioner of Chaos Magic, a dynamic and flexible magical practice that emerged in the late 20th century. This path stands out because it completely rejects the rigid structures and dogmas found in more traditional forms of magic. The core principle of Chaos Magic is viewing belief as a tool. Practitioners will temporarily adopt different belief systems—and the psychological power they hold—to achieve a desired result, discarding them once they are no longer useful. The focus is entirely on achieving tangible results rather than adhering to any...

Many men today are struggling with a loss of identity, which often leads them back to church. They hope a priest or pastor will provide the direction they lack—telling them how to be a man and how to live their lives. Similarly, they jump from one online video to another, tuning into the "manosphere" on platforms like YouTube and Rumble, a space where conspiracy theories often thrive. They scroll through TikTok and X, searching for a connection with others who feel the same way. I used to be one of those men, and I also had the knee-jerk reaction to return to church. However, the church ...

La religion des Orishas est une foi mondiale majeure, se tenant aux côtés de traditions comme l'Hindouisme, le Bouddhisme et le Christianisme. Originaire d'Afrique de l'Ouest, les archéologues suggèrent qu'elle est pratiquée depuis au moins 500 avant notre ère, bien qu'elle soit probablement beaucoup plus ancienne.

Aujourd'hui, elle est connue sous de nombreux noms, notamment Isese (la tradition), Ifa...
