In the context of modern witchcraft, a "Chaos Witch" is typically someone who practices chaos magic. Chaos magic is a contemporary magical practice that emerged in the late 20th century. It is characterized by its flexible and eclectic approach, often eschewing the rigid structures and dogmas found in more traditional forms of magic. Practitioners often view belief as a tool that can be consciously manipulated to achieve desired outcomes. This means they might adopt different belief systems temporarily to harness their psychological power, discarding them when they are no longer useful. The...

The Orisha religion is a world religion just like Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, and Christianity. Archeologists have determined it has been practiced in West Africa since at least 500 BCE but is probably much older. During the transatlantic slave trade the Orisha religion spread to the Western Hemisphere. It was most heavily practiced in the Caribbean and Brazil. It is referred to as Isese (the tradition), Cuban Ifa, Lucumi, Santeria, Regla de Ocha, Brazilian candomblé, Umbanda or simply the Orisha religion. I have been studying comparative religion for over twenty years and the only ...

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).

Brujería is the Spanish word for witchcraft. A male witch is called a Brujo and a female witch is a Bruja. Brujería is a spiritual path based on personal power and direct contact with spirit. I am a Puerto Rican man who has been practicing witchcraft and magic since childhood. Everything I teach is "open". That means anyone of any ethnicity can practice without fear of cultural appropriation. Puerto Rican traditional healing practices are born from several religious traditions that evolved on the island and in the United States. Those are the indigenous spirituality of Native Americans, ...

This book is about Ancestors, how to commune and work with them, from a modern witch’s perspective. It is specifically concerned with descendants of Indo European, Greek, Celtic, Germanic, Indo-Iranian, and Anglo Saxon peoples. You can conjure the spirits of your Ancient Celtic Pagan Ancestors because they live in you in the same way your mother and your father do.

My book is going to show beyond the shadow of...

Vodou, Vodoun, Vudú y Vudú han cautivado la imaginación de los estadounidenses durante siglos. Todos están familiarizados con el Vudú de Nueva Orleans y sus imágenes de velas negras, patas de pollo y calaveras destinadas a invocar miedo y asombro en los forasteros. El Vudú, tal como se practica en los Estados Unidos, se ha convertido en una amalgama de brujería, nigromancia, trabajo de raíces, conjuración y una palabra comodín para cualquier tipo de magia que parezca oscura y ominosa. En el Caribe, sin embargo, el Vudú se escribe Vodou y se practica como una Religión ...

Se le conoce como Isese (la tradición), Ifá cubano, Lucumí, Santería, Regla de Ocha, Candomblé brasileño, Umbanda o simplemente la religión Orisha. He estado ...

Maybe some of the things I say can help you. This document is just a peek into entries of my private journal I have chosen to make public.
