Miss Lettie's Book of Rootwork - Paperback

by Nicolette Marlowe (Author)

Rooted in the folk magic traditions of the American South and rich with ancestral memory, Miss Lettie's Book of Rootwork is a sacred companion to the novel Bones and Blessings: Whispers from St. Marlow. Written in the voice of Miss Lettie-a conjure woman, dream interpreter, and keeper of the old ways-this book is both a grimoire and a love letter to Black Southern spirituality.

Within its pages, readers will find a living archive of Hoodoo wisdom: ancestral prayers, dream symbols, bone signs, spells, charms, family stories, sacred songs, protective rituals, weather omens, and ways to speak with spirits. Organized as both a guide and a devotional, the book weaves practical instruction with poetic storytelling, allowing the reader to feel as though Miss Lettie herself is whispering teachings into their ear.

This is a book meant to be used-annotated, dog-eared, left open on an altar or bedside table. It's a tool for spiritual seekers, rootworkers, and readers drawn to ancestral healing and cultural reclamation. From moon phase rituals to cloud readings, from talismans to tea recipes, from warnings to blessings-each entry invites the reader to remember what lives in their blood and bones.
