The Living Light of Brujeria Even though modern faiths have attempted to drive the Great Mother from her throne, She lives on in the hearts and souls of Her people—and nowhere with more vitality than in the form of Guadalupe, Goddess of the brujas. Magic from Mexico presents the secrets of Brujeria, as revealed by sixteen real-life Wise Women in Mexico and America. Within these pages are the beliefs and practices of a magical and spiritual tradition that traces back to the very roots of the ancient Aztec culture, and adapts foreign influences to its own ends. Also, for the first time in publi- cation, a Book of Shadows as transmitted by real, practic- ing brujas. This is a book of wisdom, spells, laughter—and very serious convictions about human beings and the invisible world about us. Here is Goddess-centered magic, and a guide to the celebrations and worship of a belief system that is both ancient and very modern.About the Author Mary Virginia Devine, fondly known to many readers and friends as “Toci,” has devoted the last three decades to the field of Mexican-American culture.
