Yo era un nino enfermo de estatura baja y tan delgado que ninguna ropa me quedaba, a falta de galenos y medicamentos, fama tenian los brujos y yerbateros con supuestos poderes sobrenaturales, pero fue mi abuelo el unico chaman capaz de romper el conjuro que amenazaba mi existencia y quien ademas me preparo para continuar el viaje por la vida. Conoci maestros del alma, de las emociones del pensamiento que moldearon mi caracter, mi personalidad, mi hacer, pero tambien fueron los maestros del combate y la bohemia quienes completaron la estructura del guerrero que se requiere para enfrentar la batalla mas compleja de la vida, a mi mismo.
Download or read book Mexican Magic written by Laura Davila and published by Weiser Books. This book was released on 2024-11-04 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mexican Magic shares spells and recipes deeply rooted in Mexican folk beliefs and magic. “Some are born with a star, while others are born starry.” This dicho (saying) refers to the Mexican belief that good luck is a matter of fate—something you are born with or not. Mexicans traditionally attribute their good or bad luck to a greater force, to God’s will, even to the stars in the sky. Being born with a star is a blessing. While some gain their luck through fate, Laura Davila believes even more in faith, virtue, and purpose. Some people are born with a natural gift for magic, but many others are compelled toward magic by life experience. The best brujos and magical people are not those who necessarily started off in perfect circumstances but those who looked at magic as a skill to be mastered. Mexican Magic offers an overview of magic and spells from across Mexico for daily use. Although the book’s spells may be practiced by anyone, they are deeply rooted in Mexican folk beliefs and magic. Featuring magical recipes, spells, tips, and advice for a wide variety of intentions, including love, lust, sex, good luck, money, protection, commerce, gambling, justice, pregnancy, travel, education, and more, Mexican Magic also offers direction on how to be a magical person and live a magical life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in contemporary Spain, Susana Aikin’s latest novel is a colorful, beautifully written examination of memory, romance, and the intricacies of family duty. On a sweltering August day in Madrid, Anna, Julia, and Marion return to their childhood home. The once grand mansion, furnished with exotic objects and art that reflected the cultures of their English father and Spanish mother, once bustled with visitors. But since their father’s death, all three sisters have been reluctant to go back, still feeling the weight of his domineering influence. Julia believes that before the house can sell, it needs to be cleared of negative energy, and she has planned a limpieza, or cleaning ritual. Marion, the oldest, fears what the ceremony might unleash. Anna, the youngest and most capable and ambitious of the trio, is skeptical of the Cuban santeria hired by Julia. Still, she is wary of antagonizing her siblings, or of stirring up old resentment. But as the ceremony progresses, guilt and recrimination become impossible to ignore. And if there’s a chance of bringing their house and their lives out of the shadows, it rests in the sisterhood, strength, and indomitable love that remains when the ghosts of the past surrender at last.
