About this item
Death welcomes everyone. This is the foundation for the veneration of Santa Muerte, or "Holy Death." Considered to be the female personification of death, she is associated with protection and safe passage to the afterlife. She is also the patron saint of people who live on the fringes of society and often face violence and death. In recent years her constituency has expanded to include the LGBT community and people who are marginalized or whose jobs put them at significant risk of death such as military and police personnel. Santa Muerte is hailed as their potent and powerful protector, capable of delivering them from harm and even granting miracles.Santa Muerte is a complete ritual guide to working with this famous -- and infamous! -- Mexican folk saint.
About the Author
Hi there! My name is Tracey Rollin. I am a practicing witch and chaos magician with over twenty years of experience. I have dedicated my life to studying how our ideas, imagination and intuition shape the world around us.
I have worked with Santa Muerte for many years now, a spirit whom many regard as a feminine form of Death. She is not terrifying or wicked, however. Our Lady of Death is a capable and helpful spirit in every regard. She responds fully and graciously to requests with unprecedented speed, which is why I am eager to bring my experiences with her to you.
I believe that magic is a tool that can and should be used by everyone. I have developed my methods over the years with the newbie witch or magician in mind. My explanations are simple, friendly, and straightforward, taking the guesswork out of magic.
Personally, I was born and raised with a Catholic upbringing in New Mexico. I still live and work there as a registered nurse, with years of emergency and trauma experience behind me. I share my home with my significant other and several large and very slobbery dogs.
I hope to meet you at a convention or book signing soon!
All the best,
Tracey
