Fuegos enciende, polvos levanta

Popular sorcery is the set of common magical practices of a people. Practices that, since ancient times, have connected our ancestors with the nature of their environment, with their ancestors and with the forces that moved their world. Times change, but there are things that will always remain unchanged, since they are part of human nature itself, of existence and of Otherness. Although carried out by new hands, folk sorcery shapes our cultural identity, our history and our spiritual, religious and magical heritage. Resuming their practices gives us back that connection with our ancestors and our territory. In addition, popular magic makes us see that nothing exclusive, expensive or far from our daily lives is necessary for a profoundly significant practice. One that understands the past and learns from it to make sense of the present. A conscious way of using the wisdom, tools and resources of the traditional for our personal practice, adapted to our own times and needs. However, you must know that this is not a work for those who fear to delve into the shadows or transgress the taboo. Popular sorcery is neither innocent nor aseptic; it is dirty and cunning, poisonous, insolent and opportunistic. It is blood, bone and earth, sex, thorns stuck and words whispered in the deepest night. Only by embracing the liminal nature of popular sorcery can we unravel its darkest curses, but also come to embrace its most sublime light.
