About this ebook

One of the first books to explore the unique tradition of Dominican shamanism, the magical practices called the 21 Divisions.

Like all forms of Caribbean Voodoo, practitioners of the 21 Divisions believe in one God, a distant God that doesn’t get involved in human affairs. Followers of this Dominican spiritual tradition believe that God created intermediaries to help humans, beings known as Los Misterios.

The Misterios are powerful beings with rulership and dominion over universal forces and human conditions. Practitioners of the 21 Divisions have ways of connecting with the Misterios to achieve success in life, improve their careers, resolve love and relationship issues, heal illness, and much more.

Filled with detailed insider information and real stories of healing, magic, and mystery, this book will serve as an illuminating guide to the 21 Divisions. Hector Salva—one of the foremost authorities on the practice of the 21 Divisions—offers his insights into:

    The history and foundations of Dominican Voodoo
  • The major Misterios, or spirits, of the 21 Divisions
  • Ceremonies, rituals, and magical spells
  • How to get started on the path of the 21 Divisions

This book right here is a Holy Grail for all those that are seeking knowledge in spirituality and specifically Vodou, as the author himself is known to be practicing three of the major branches of that tradition (21 Divisions, Sanse, Haitian Vodou). All of the pages cover up Vodou for what it really is, and it also shows all sides of the Mysteries and Spirits that we all may know, or may not know about. The 21 Divisions: Mysteries and Magic of Dominican Voodoo shows a huge perspective from a priest who clearly is an expert and a leader as far as preserving and growing the true essence of these traditions. If you are looking for a spellbook, then this is not a shot for you, as it deals with the real root & spirituality of the people who call themselves Vodouisants. It speaks of the real spiritual cures, and not band-aids that keep you going for a short amount of time. If you are serious about your Vodou path and walking with your Lwa with Faith, Hope and Charity, then this is the best book to start with before you find a mentor that will teach you on their own.
