Mexican Sorcery: A Practical Guide to Brujeria de Rancho by Laura Davila

Mexican Sorcery: A Practical Guide to Brujeria de Rancho is Laura Davila's hands-on introduction to the ranch-rooted folk magic of rural Mexico. Drawing on a multi-generational family tradition, Davila shares the practical craft of brujeria de rancho: limpias (spiritual cleansings), herbal magic, talismans, and protections against the Evil Eye, hexes, and curses.

She blends folk Catholic imagery with practices accessible to Pagan, Hoodoo, and Conjure practitioners, presenting clear, step-by-step rituals for cleansing, protection, and hex-breaking that rely on simple, commonly found ingredients. Across 224 pages, the book honors family lineage while making this living tradition approachable for modern readers.
