In this book, Tata Oriate's Spiritual Circle for Beginners Volume 1: Mayombe and Spell Work is intended to enlighten, educate, and help individuals just starting their spiritual journey into Palo Mayombe. As well as being simple enough so that even a novice would understand. I intend to give you a glimpse of the true meaning of what it is being a Tata (an initiated Palo priest) or Yaya (an initiated Palo priestess) as if I was speaking face to face to you. The importance of initiates behaviors and conduct in and outside of their munanso (Palo house). The importance of the oath taken when initiated and what is its true meaning.
Author Biography
My spiritual journey began over 27 years ago, due to my great grandparents and grandparents from both sides of my family. I was introduced to Espiritismo, and this is how my journey into various spiritual paths began. As a child I saw spirits and paranormal activities. These experiences caught my attention. I wanted to learn more and continue exploring these paths. I am passionate about teaching these spiritual truths. As an initiated priest, I feel is my job keep these traditions alive. I am Omo Oshun and Oriate Olu Osain in the Lukumi/Yoruba tradition. First off, I was first baptized in Espiritismo, Sanse, 21 Division, and then received Santo Lavao. Afterwards I was initiated in to the Palo Mayombe tradition and was crowned in Osha. I later received Osain and the ceremony of Irete Kutan. In this ceremony you receive Igba Osha which gives you the title and rank of Oriate, which is the highest rank within the Olorishas. Alafia, Ashe & Nsala Malecum Tata Oriate
