Happy Día de los Muertos to my Bruja / Brujo's & people all over the world who do Brujeria.

Here is my Sister Cressida Stone with Jason Louv talking about her time in Mexico & her relationship with La Madrina.

"Join us as we dive deep into the heart of Mexican spirituality and folklore with Cressida Stone, a renowned author and expert in the mystical practices surrounding Santa Muerte. Drawing upon years of collaboration with curanderos (healers) dedicated to Santa Muerte and an extensive study of genuine Mexican sources and traditions, Cressida has crafted a guide that bridges the gap between the sacred and the secular.In this enlightening video, Cressida shares her profound insights into the veneration of Santa Muerte, presenting an array of prayers, spells, and rituals that cater to both novices and seasoned practitioners alike. Whether you're seeking protection, love, or guidance on your spiritual journey, you'll find valuable resources in Cressida's teachings."

 
My personal signed copy of her book, I am Ricardo Verde in the book & also given a shout-out on the podcast from Cressida.

The Days of the dead are three days that are dedicated to the souls of the deceased which is celebrated but not officially recognized by Christians including The Roman Catholic Church. It falls on October 31 st and lasts for 3 days until November 2 and is mapped to Halloween, All Saints Day (Nov 1) and All Souls Day (Nov 2).

It is entirely different than the Santa Muerte. Santa Muerta is a "semi-religious" cult that offers gifts to the "patron saint" of Narcos (Santa Muerte), that seeks the protection for their endeavors. Santa Muerte is a separate ritual sect that does not base itself in Christianity and asks the dark side of creation for assistance in their "work". It's rituals occur 365 days a year.

The more you know, etc ...
 
In Orthodoxy-we have ours day of the dead.(three in the whole year)Latest is always close to Ur "Halloween"....shortly after the day of archangel Michael....not a carnival at all...just people go to graveyards...cleaning the graves of their deceased loved ones and give each other food....the day of commemorate the dead and hardening of the social bonds between alive ones...special ceremonies are holding... requiem style of chanting by the priests...stuff like that

Go to Barrio Tepito & speak to Dona Queta who runs the shrine there.

And you have spoken to how many Brujo / Bruja's in Mexico?
You have had how many Novenas placed in SM Temples with your name carved into the Wax on this day in Rural Mexico I wonder? I have had 3 btw.
 
I have actual life experience with many visits through my life and have visited Mexico hundreds of times. Barrio Tepito is a very cartel controlled area BTW, and the birthplace of the third largest cartel, the Tepito Union, thus is why there is a strong following there. I have zero candles carved with my name because I know the actual significance and do not wish for protection by the underworld. If that's what you are interested in doing, then more power to you.

And also the first ever Public display of La Madrina & the first Public Temple gifted to Dona Quita to help with legal issues she had.
 
There are a lot of people who celebrate the Days of the Dead who do not involve themselves with the beliefs of SM. They are separate from each other. The Catholic Church I belongs to has celebrations for the Days of the Dead in the Mexican community. They do not involve themselves with anything to do with SM. They are separate not the same, which is what your initial post implies.

LOL,. I guess when one has no genuine points to make then one resorts to insults. Whatever. :cool:

You take Chingona as an insult? I take Chingona as anything but that.
Now if I had said you were a Puta or Cabrona you would have a valid point.

You speak Spanish?
