Complete Your Experience with the Physical Planner

While this eBook provides the spiritual and theoretical foundation, we have designed a specialized Physical Paperback Edition that functions as a one-of-a-kind planner. If you are looking for an interactive tool to take with you during your ceremony, the printed edition includes:

• Total Ceremony Preparation: Checklists for preparations, expense tracking, and guest lists.
• Consultation with your Godparent: Dedicated spaces to record your questions and the fundamental data completed by the Babalawo during the ceremony.
• Personal Growth: Sections to write down your goals and actively work on materializing them following the advice of your Itá.
• Updated for the Future: Includes full calendars for the current year plus three years ahead, ensuring your planning is always up to date.
• Comprehensive Organization: Yearly and monthly planners, to-do lists, and contact management.
• Superior Visual Quality: High-quality, full-color printing designed to honor the beauty of our spirituality.

A Bridge Between Tradition and Your Daily Life

Although the information was specifically consulted in Cuba, we understand the global expansion of our religion. Therefore, the physical planner features blank spaces and additional lines so you can customize it according to the specific customs of your religious house (casa de santo).
Created with deep respect and knowledge of Afro-Cuban spirituality, Tracing Destinies is the ultimate resource for those seeking to live their faith with order and mindfulness.

We wish you much Ashé on your journey!
