"Weston, Brandon - Llewellyn's complete book of North American Folk Magic... (2023)"
It is an excellent eclectic book of North American folk magic. A must-have in your witchy library. This collection of folk magic traditional teachers/practitioners is one of the best I've ever seen in a book like this. I'm proud to say I'm a part of this work but also very impressed with the writers and practitioners of the various traditions presented. If you are interested in AUTHENTIC North American folk magic, then you will find extremely credible information here; especially about traditions like Hoodoo, Powwow, Italian folk magic, and so many others.
This comprehensive guide to North American folk magic covers more than 20 diverse magical traditions that have taken root on the continent. You will discover the Northeastern maritime practice of "buying the wind," the Mexican Curanderismo method of energy cleansing with candles, the Irish-American custom of making fairy houses, and much more. Drawing on the expertise of 25 renowned practitioners, this book explores authentic magic from New England to the West Coast and everywhere in between. Learn about Appalachian folk magic from H. Byron Ballard, Voodoo from Lilith Dorsey, Ozark folk magic from Brandon Weston, and Brujería from J. Allen Cross. Filled with history, tools, and spiritual beliefs, this new entry in Llewellyn's Complete Book Series showcases the rich and varied magical traditions of North America.
Drawing on the expertise of twenty-four renowned practitioners, this book features contemporary folk traditions from all over North America. Diverse as the landscapes they thrive on, these authentic practices will expand your worldview and inspire you to enrich your spirituality. Explore the history, tools, and spiritual beliefs of many different paths of folk magic from Mexico, the United States, and Canada. You'll tour the continent's rich and varied cultures region by region, taking an insider's look at more than twenty traditions, including:

Detroit Hoodoo, Florida Swamp Magic, Irish American Folk Magic
