Winter Solstice Brujeria w/ Lou Florez and Napaquetzalli
Conjure worker & High Priest Lou Florez (Awo Ifadunsin Sangobiyi) is back to continue sharing more in depth knowledge in our ongoing Brujeria Class Series, co-facilitated with herbalist & healer Napaquetzalli.
Join us as we co-create a shared ritual space for our community to celebrate the season of inner reflection as we prepare for renewal in the new year. We will be sharing blessing and manifestation work to specifically facilitate everything we wish to create in our lives in 2019 and beyond.
Through ritual work we can call in all of the luck, love, health, and money we and our families deserve! We will also create talismans to carry these blessings into the future.

About the teachers:
Lou Florez (Awo Ifadunsin Sangobiyi) is an internationally known spirit worker, medicine maker, priest, activist, and artist who has studied with indigenous communities and elders throughout the globe. He is trained and experiences in hoodoo/Southern conjure, curanderismo/Mexican folk magic, as well as Paganism and European Witchcraft. He serves as Awo/High Priest of IFA for the Ile Ori Oakland temple. Lou grounds his teachings and practice in the idea that connectedness to ourselves and our physical, emotional, spiritual, and environmental landscapes is a fundamental necessity for any long lasting change to occur. He holds that through creating these living, dynamic relationships we become conscious of the inherent power available to us in every second of our lives.
Napaquetzalli is a queer Xicana/Indigenous herbalist and healer. Napa has studied both traditional Mexican curanderismo as well as clinical Western herbalism, with a passion for creating accessible and culturally relevant herbal medicine for the community. Napa is a co-founder of Curanderas Sin Fronteras, a collective that provides spiritual and herbal support for the Bay Area Latinx community and also works as an herbalist at the Scarlet Sage Herb Co. in SF Mission District. Their practice is rooted in helping others reconnect to ancestral and intuitive knowledge, as well as decolonizing our relationships to the earth, our bodies, and each other.
