Hundreds of years ago, the Yoruba people of Nigeria and West Africa were brought to America as slaves. Luckily, they successfully preserved their heritage and ancestral spirits by disguising their deities as Catholic saints. In secret, they worshipped. The result is the new-age religion known as Santería, a blend of Catholicism and African traditional beliefs.

When is a story more than just a story? When does it become a myth? When it holds a piece of truth about our history, our morality, and the cosmos. Throughout history, humankind has used stories to explain the unknown. From the cycle of the moon to the changing of the seasons, tales about supernatural beings and events have served to account for the purpose of the cosmos. But mythology isn’t entirely fiction. These stories have been passed down for generations for a reason.

An important and interesting audible
This audible has an important role - it demonstrates the multiplicity and richness of the Orishas, powerful voodoo queens, and Goddesses. It was interesting to listen, providing many fine details about the characters explored. It looks at historical and mythic aspects of the characters, the uncomfortable realities of slavery, women's issues, and the power of magic and faith to trying times.

10/10 amazing book
If you're seeking a fascinating journey into the world of Orishas, look no further than "Orishas" by Mari Silva. This incredible book is a treasure trove of knowledge, offering a quick and comprehensive understanding of the Orishas and their origins.
From the very first page, I was captivated by the captivating storytelling and the author's ability to transport me to the mystical realm of the Orishas. The book expertly combines rich historical context with engaging narratives, making it a perfect choice for both beginners and those hungry for more knowledge.
Mari Silva's writing style is both informative and accessible, making complex concepts easy to grasp. I found myself immersed in the vivid descriptions of each Orisha, their divine attributes, and their significance in Afro-Caribbean religions. It was truly a delight to learn about their roles, rituals, and cultural importance.
What sets "Orishas" apart is its ability to spark curiosity and ignite a desire for further exploration. As I turned each page, I couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder and awe for these powerful spiritual beings. The book left me yearning for more, eager to delve deeper into the world of Orishas and their sacred traditions.
I wholeheartedly recommend "Orishas" to anyone seeking a concise yet comprehensive introduction to the Orishas. Mari Silva's passion and knowledge shine through every word, making this book an absolute must-read. I eagerly await more literary gems from this talented author.

Highly recommended.
Lilith Dorsey's "Orishas, Goddesses, and Voodoo Queens" covers the uncharted territory. An introductory text on the African divine feminine, with an eye toward a Pagan readership, simply hasn't been done before. What's delightful is that it is introductory, often simple, but never simple-minded. Dorsey also places *herself* squarely in the text; making sure we understand this work as authored by a woman of color. She doesn't shy away from the political, and that's amazing.

Full of wisdom.
She gives a lot of data about each orisha which is elsewhere difficult to find. It has lists of each orishas colors, paths, invocations and hymns, names, herbs, and more. It's a highly informative and impressive book. I don't care what anyone says about wippler, she's an amazing writer and merits much praise.
