"I once heard Luisah Teish speak at a conference, and she forever captured my attention with her story telling. The tales she tells of her own life and adventures in "Jambalaya" are no exception. I also love the way she takes Voudou and Yoruban spirituality and makes it user-friendly for any seeker."
"I really enjoy how Luisha talks about her first experiences with magic and how they are intertwined with her family history. Each chapter describes useful and easy step by step rituals. It is a rare gem discussing magic, spiritual journeys and being a woman of color. In the sea of white witches in the northwest, starhawak and irish wiccan books and the like, this one was really important to me."
"I have had the pleasure of meeting Ms. Teish at a Women's Spirituality conference. She led the opening ceremony and taught us some tricks of the trade. She spoke about Haiti and the magical women there. She spoke about ancient traditions and wisdoms. This is a text book of healing and empowerment. This book concentrates on the voudou powers in New Orleans.It employs the subconscious mind. It is a working woman's tradition and is easily used by working women. This is a book to have on your reference shelf. Feminist spirituality allows women to call the Goddess by her many names, Kuan Yin, White Buffalo Woman, Oshun. This is a book of spells and intentions."
