Inside you will learn that each Orisha has specific actions and temperament.
- Where can you find Elegua
- Oshun's favorite food
- How to petition Chango
- Find which Orisha is best capable to work out the difficulty you are going through.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A lot of resources inside, days of the week, what the orishas like, recipes even! Just remember to honor these parts of yourself as well.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5It seems as though the author has drawn upon incorrect information from unreliable and inauthentic sources. Anyone who is an actual devotee of this spiritual tradition can tell.
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Incorrect information provided in this book about Afro-Cuban Religion. Example: Under Yemaya, it states Yemaya is known as Nana Buruku. This is incorrect. Nana Buruku is the mother of Babalu Aye and she resides in the swamps.
