"A sumptuous tapestry of magic spells and memories."—Los Angeles Times

A stunning collection of spells and stories to infuse our lives with ritual, history, and magic from the visionary artist and infamous witch Bri Luna, founder and creative director of "The Hoodwitch"

Blood Sex Magic is an invitation and an awakening—a guide to a life of connection to self and spirit, to seen and unseen realms, and to magical traditions past and future. Born with both Mexican/Indigenous and African roots, Bri Luna honors the traditions of tarot, nature, and root working, and celebrates magic that is "from dirt and blood, jewels and bones, moon and sun."

Full of stunning photography and color illustrations, and brimming with incantations, spells, stories, vignettes, and warnings, Blood Sex Magic is divided into three sections:

  • BLOOD uncovers Bri's roots, with guides on setting boundaries, protection, and honoring the dead
  • SEX reveals the art of love magic and celebrates the goddess, lust, and femininity, with spells for seduction and reclaiming your power
  • MAGIC offers meaningful daily rituals, including those for self-love, peace, beauty, and prosperity
  • An instant classic and timeless resource for both new and experienced witches alike, this beautiful collection shows us how to access the untapped magic within and encourages us to see and channel that same magic in the world around us.

        Starred review from December 1, 2023

        As one might guess from this book's salacious title, Luna (a.k.a. the Hoodwitch) is a badass witch. Part autobiography, part grimoire, part witchy-feminist essay, the book tells Luna's story with authenticity and verve, in three sections. "Blood" is about honoring ancestors, in particular Luna's two grandmothers (one steeped in curandera/brujera traditions, the other in hoodoo/conjure customs), whose foundational beliefs, attitudes, and rituals laid the groundwork for Luna's coming into her own magic. Luna's grandmothers taught her to defend her integrity and boundaries and not to allow the negativity of others to discourage her. "Sex" creates the energy for successful spell work. Luna is unabashedly into glamour magic, sexuality, and beauty as a path to autonomy and personal power. After embracing one's cultural heritage and understanding that ritual is the backbone, "Magic" is the way to create and bolster self-confidence. Luna writes powerfully and without equivocation about hexes as a way to get retribution and justice for truly bad behavior. Intense, original collage and photographic art throughout underscores the book's messaging. VERDICT Luna's supportive concepts, cultural inclusiveness, frank talk, and unique spells should appeal to readers looking for feminist, representational, badass witchcraft.
