About this audiobook

Most people have heard of Voodoo before, but if you think it only has to do with sticking pins into cursed dolls for the purpose of inflicting pain onto your enemies, you couldn’t be further from the truth.

Voodoo, or 'Vodou' as it is traditionally referred to, is a modern-day take on an ancient Haitian religion developed by African-Caribbean slave workers on island plantations during the period of French Slavery. Apart from simply being just a religion, Voodoo is actually an entire way of life which is centered around an immense respect for one's elders.

In this book, you will:

·       Learn how the Orishas came to be, starting with the source of all things – Olodumare

·       Discover which Orisha to call upon for specific circumstances

·       Find out how to praise and invoke the presence of the Orishas

·       Learn how to get divine answers for your heart's questions using Diloggun

·       Discover how to interpret the answers you get from Obi

·       And so much more!

When it comes to Voodoo, few things are more iconic than the Voodoo doll. Known also as conjure dolls, doll babies, dollies, baby dolls, poppets, fetich, fetish, and effigies, they are servants of fastacting, longlasting magic.

People are jealous of this ancient knowledge. Voodoo is much more than mere black magic and in this book you will discover everything you need to learn its true essence.

I've had this book for about 3 years and it's pretty much my go-to resource for understanding Orishas & Voodoo Queens. The difference between the two as well as how other aspects of these deities are personified in different traditions (such as Maman Brigitte vs Brigid) is broken down really well. I also enjoy the small stories they include, which involve both traditional tales, and their own experiences with them.

Vodouist believe in distant and unknowable supreme creator, Bondye. Every Loa is responsible for the particular aspect of life, Vodouists cultivate personal relationship with Loa through the presentation of offerings, the creation of personal altars and devotional objects. Vodou also incorporates elements and symbolism from other African peoples including the Yoruba and Kongo and many others. I read about this topic in school times and now after many years i again refreshed my knowledge on Vodoo

I pre-ordered this book and it was well worth the wait! I couldn't put it down it had so much information and I loved the writing style. I read it cover to cover as soon as I got it. It's a great resource for anyone starting out or just needing a reminder of their own feminine greatness.
