About the author
Elhoim Leafar is a Venezuelan practitioner and author who writes about South American folk magic and Venezuelan spiritual traditions. Pagan Portals - Maria Lionza: Folklore and Rituals of the Queen of Witches, Faeries, and Animas (Moon Books, 2026) covers the veneration of María Lionza, a central figure in Venezuelan popular spirituality, written by an author initiated into her cult. Dream Witchery: Folk Magic, Recipes and Spells from South America for Witches and Brujas (Llewellyn Publications, 2023) collects more than seventy spells, charms, and folk remedies concerned with dreams, drawing on South American witchcraft traditions. Manifestation Magic: 21 Rituals, Spells, and Amulets for Abundance, Prosperity, and Wealth (Weiser Books, 2021) applies the same folk-magic approach to prosperity work through amulets and talismans, requiring no prior magical experience. Across the three books, Leafar's focus stays on Venezuelan and broader South American folk and witchcraft traditions, addressed to readers curious about brujería outside the more commonly published European and North American traditions.
