About this audiobook
Authentic and unapologetic, this guide to magical spirituality empowers women of color to take back the power to heal and shine under their own strength. Written by an accomplished Hoodoo practitioner, this book features spells, recipes, and rituals that help listeners like you rise out of the constrictions around them.
The calabash (gourd) is a sacred vessel in Yoruba cosmology; it's the ultimate emblem of female fertility. Sharing folk traditions, personal stories, and her favorite songs and pop stars, Mawiyah Kai El-Jamah Bomani shows you how to bless your gourd with love and reawaken your fullest potential. She teaches not only how to cast spells for better sex, money, and success, but also how to empower the men and children in your life. An inclusive and intersectional voice in contemporary Hoodoo, Mawiyah will help you become as fierce as Beyonce herself.
