CT 26: Conjuring the Calabash author Mawiyah Bomani's Journey into Hoodoo Empowerment and Spiritual Wisdom

Casual Temple

🌟 Welcome to Episode 26 as we explore the journey and insights of author Mawiyah Bomani, an 8th Generation Witch deeply immersed in spirituality and the author of Conjuring the Calabash: Empowering Women with Hoodoo Spells & Magick. Mawiyah's diverse background as a writer, playwright, spirit woman, educator, and Priestess of OYA in the Yoruba system of spirituality sets the stage for an enlightening conversation.

As the host of "Fish Heads and Red Gravy," Mawiyah celebrates marginalized esoteric communities, while her latest literary creation, "Conjuring the Calabash," empowers women with Hoodoo spells and magic. Throughout our discussion, Mawiyah generously shares insights from her spiritual journey, recounting early encounters with spirits and occult practices.

Raised in New Orleans, Mawiyah's education and religious upbringing intersected as she attended Catholic school while being initiated into Santeria by her grandfather, with Hoodoo deeply ingrained in her family's traditions. Drawing from her rich spiritual repertoire, Mawiyah recommends influential books on Hoodoo and spirituality.

Join us on this journey of empathy and understanding with practitioners of different traditions on the Casual Temple.
