Highly informative, both about the worlds of the spirits and practical finances, Kenaz effectively shows the connection and relevance of both these worlds to each other.

The book also offers an amazing history of Vodou and other African-based traditions, presented in the context of historical/poliltical events in Haiti. The chapter notes hold a wealth of research information and the resource section at the end is substantial and discriminating. --Anna Jedrziewski, reviewer, New Age Retailer, April 2010 What an interesting book! Bold, opinionated, and practical. Kenaz Filan writes from experience . . . --Witches & Pagans, September 2010 An informative and authentic look at not only Vodou traditions but also their practices and philosophy regarding prosperity and fortune. With it, you can apply Vodou money magic to your own life, even if you are not a Vodou practitioner. --Christopher Penczak, author of The Witch's Coin and The Mystic Foundation Informative and authentic, Vodou traditions, practices and philosophy regarding prosperity and fortune are explored. Highly informative, both about the worlds of the spirits and practical finances, Kenaz effectively shows the connection and relevance of both these worlds to each other. --Frater Puck, Behutet, February 2011 Kenaz Filan's new book is a gold rush of information both about the worlds of the spirits and practical finances. Kenaz skillfully and solidly bridges the great divide drawn by other authors, between the spiritual and the material, with money magic! --Tannin Schwartzstein, coauthor of The Urban Primitive: Paganism in the Concrete Jungle Once again, Kenaz Filan has written a book that is at once fascinating and immensely practical. Vodou Money Magic combines a clear understanding of the tradition's history, with thorough explanations of the appropriate way to approach and propitiate each Lwa, all with the goal of living better. I particularly appreciated the 'Curb Impulse Spending with Damballah' ritual in chapter 8. Filan, extremely well versed in both the spiritual and esoteric aspects of Vodou, doesn't ever once neglect the third part of that metaphysical equation: our own focus and work in the every-day world. I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in learning about Vodou, or in improving their financial picture. --Galina Krasskova, author of Exploring the Northern Tradition and Runes: Theory and Practice, March 2 Vodou Money Magic is like a car jack: if you aren't afraid to get your hands dirty, it will help you get the job done. The author explains what steps to take, but you have to do the work yourself. --Elizabeth Barrette, author of Composing Magic: How to Create Magical Spells, Rituals, Blessings, Cha Author InformationKenaz Filan (Houngan Coquille du Mer) was initiated into Société la Belle Venus in March 2003 after 10 years of solitary service to the Haitian Vodou lwa.
