About the author
Aida, credited on her books as Miss Aida, is the author of three titles on Hoodoo and related African diaspora traditions published by Crossed Crow Books and Weiser Books: Traditional Hoodoo and Conjure: A Handbook of Spirits, Spells, and Rootwork, Hoodoo Justice Magic: Spells for Power, Protection and Righteous Vindication, and Hoodoo Cleansing and Protection Magic: Banish Negative Energy and Ward Off Unpleasant People. Her books present Hoodoo as a distinct practice rooted in African traditional religions, addressing common misconceptions and distinguishing it from related traditions such as Santeria and Haitian Vodou. Traditional Hoodoo and Conjure functions as a general handbook of spirits, spells and rootwork, while the two Weiser titles focus on specific applications, cleansing and protection on one hand and justice-oriented spellwork, including a stated 129 spells and 32 recipes, on the other. Her work is aimed at readers seeking a grounded, tradition-specific account of Hoodoo practice.
