Today I'm chatting with Dr. Cressida Stone about her book, The Secrets of Santa Muerte. I learned so much about this Mexican folk saint from the book but also just from this talk, so I know you will too!
The Secrets of Santa Muerte is a practical handbook on how to connect with the mysterious Mexican folk saint. Drawing from authentic Mexican sources and traditions, it details secret, esoteric knowledge that will foster a deep connection with the Saint of Death. The book covers the fascinating history of this revered folk saint as well as practical tips on how to:
- Create an altar to Santa Muerte and keep it cleansed of negative energies and free of demons.
- Interpret the acceptance of offerings and signs from Santa Muerte.
- Use the moon’s power to heighten your work with her.
- Work with her saint through candles and statues.
- Use color combinations in your spell work to achieve your desires.

Stone also received endorsements from numerous famous Mexican Santa Muerte witches and leaders, including Yuri Mendez, Bruja of the Three Virtues, who attests that "Cressida Stone has deep knowledge of the spirituality of Santa Muerte. She has traveled across Mexico where the roots of devotion to the Saint of Death truly originate. She honors our faith and shares the teachings of Santa Muerte clearly, aiding people to respectfully venerate and learn correctly about Santisima Muerte.
