151 Essential Ingredients for Spiritualism

By David Sosa and Kiev Martinez

This book is a clear, field-tested reference to the 151 essential ingredients used in Afro-Latino Spiritualism. Organized for practical use, it covers perfumes, condition oils, resins and incense woods, herbs/roots/barks, powders and sachets, baths/washes/salts, candles and color logic, ritual hardware, and papers and sprays. Each entry outlines origins, typical preparation, safe handling and dosage, pairing rules, burn and disposal notes, and contraindications. The focus is procedural: how to stage a room, select the correct medium for a case, dress and place materials without creating hazards, and record outcomes that can be audited. The tone is rigorous and accessible, suitable for households, botanicas, and study circles that need reproducible methods rather than anecdotes.

Beyond the catalog, the book provides workflow maps from cleansing to opening, attraction, stabilization, and protection; templates for petitions and burn logs; guidance on consent and proportional response; and sourcing notes that address legality, conservation, and ingredient transparency. Regional practice across Puerto Rico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Venezuela, and diaspora communities is treated as operational detail, not ornament, with apartment-safe protocols and public-venue constraints addressed directly. The result is a dependable manual for new workers and experienced practitioners alike: precise steps, conservative dosing, safety checklists, bilingual shelf language, and tools for teaching and supervision that keep services effective, lawful, and respectful of shared spaces.
