Understanding West African Vodun begins with knowledge.

West African Vodun explores and explains this often-misunderstood religion. It invites readers to open their eyes and their minds to what Vodun is, where and why began, and how it's practiced.

You may think you know everything you need to know because you've seen Hollywood's interpretation of these spiritual practices, but this book proves those theories, misconceptions, artistic licenses, and theories wrong.

Inside, you'll discover:

  • Vodun's early days and how it plays a pivotal role in how it's practiced now
  • How and why it's been mis-characterized
  • How to practice it properly
  • Who the deities are and why they're honored
  • Who the Priestesses are and why they are held to such esteem

And more!

Finally learn how Vodun, Hindu, Shango, Jesus and the Buddha are far more alike than you may think and understand what role slavery and slaves play in this religion and why it should matter to you.

Über den Autor Monique Joiner Siedlak

I've always wanted to write, but being a single parent to five, finding the time to write was difficult, especially when working two jobs at a time and some days working 18 hours. But I did what I had to do. After given the opportunity to leave my job and my youngest graduating, I've decided to dive in head first into writing full-time, and haven't slowed down yet. My husband (remarried almost five years ago) says I work more now than I did punching the time clock. I never needed anyone looking over my shoulders while I worked (even thought someone probably did). I just know what needs to be done and push myself not to get ahead, but to stay ahead. Just because I'm home doesn't mean there isn't work to be done.
