Hola Amiguis!!

In episode 6, we explors and frame the heart of the brujería movement as an act of spiritual sovereignty, cultural reclamation, and resistance. Listeners will explore how colonization severed our people from sacred earth-based practices and how millennials and Gen Z are reclaiming brujería, curanderismo, and Indigenous spirituality with power and purpose.

Brujería is not devil worship. It’s not fantasy or superstition. It’s a spiritual technology—a decolonial practice of survival, resistance, healing, and connection. It’s a living, breathing cosmology inherited from generations who passed down wisdom quietly, often in code, behind closed doors, through whispered prayers, teas, candles, dreams, and rituals.

At its core, brujería is about relationship—to the Earth, to ancestors, to spirit, and to ourselves. It’s about reclaiming what was forcibly taken or shamed out of us: our intuition, our magic, our right to define the sacred on our own terms.

For many of us millennials (especially queer, femme, Afro-Latinx, and Indigenous folks), brujería is a way to reconnect with our ancestors, our intuition, and our power—after centuries of erasure. It's a rejection of whitewashed spirituality and institutional religion that told us our cultures were savage or sinful.

This is reclamation. Through altars, tarot, herbalism, astrology, moon rituals, and ancestral veneration, we're healing generational wounds. We’re saying: “I don’t need a middleman to talk to Spirit. My magic is valid.”

It’s not just about casting spells—it’s about remembering who you are.

Let's get into it!
