Synopsis

The Sacred Umbanda: BAIANOS & BAIANAS
Rhythms of Resistance, Laughter, and Labor — The Spirits of the Northeast

In this moving tribute to one of Umbanda’s most beloved spiritual lines, author and Babalorishá Tilo de Àjàgùnnà—founder of the DAILY IFÁ newsletter and bestselling author of The Sacred Umbanda—offers a poetic and practical deep dive into the Linha dos Baianos and Baianas: spirits of faith, fire, coconut, and calm resistance.

✨ What You’ll Discover Inside:

• 40+ detailed spirit profiles: Baiano Zé do Coco, Maria do Dendê, Baiana da Estrada, Zé Tenório, and many others

• Powerful stories, myths, and teachings that preserve the oral wisdom of the Northeast

• Thematic sublines, including Baianos Cangaceiros, Lavradores, Malandros, and Baianas de Fé, Maré, Festa, and Justiça

• Dozens of vegan, home-based rituals with:

  • Coconuts, herbs, and joy as spiritual tools

  • Cleansings, offerings, grounding prayers

  • Rituals for ancestral connection, emotional resilience, and spiritual humor

🌿 Why This Book Matters:

Baianos and Baianas are more than folkloric characters. They are living spiritual presences who bring healing, laughter, and dignity to the streets, kitchens, and crossroads of the soul. Their energy calms without dulling, protects without shouting, and teaches with a smile.

This volume is part of the Sacred Umbanda Series, which expands on the foundational teachings of The Sacred Umbanda. Each title explores one line in depth, offering accessible, ethical, and spiritually potent works for:

• Devotees in diaspora far from traditional terreiros

• Brazilian practitioners seeking grounded, non-syncretic resources

• Spiritual seekers craving joy and wisdom with roots

📚 Series Principles:

• No animal sacrifice

• 100% vegan, DIY-accessible rituals

• No syncretism or borrowed rites from Candomblé, Ifá, or Vodou

• Line integrity respected—no mixing of archetypes

• Storytelling as sacred education

🗝️ Their strength is calm. Their wisdom is rooted. Their laughter is healing.

This is not a book about the past.
It’s a guide to walking forward with your feet in the earth and your spirit in joy.

Saravá, Baiano. Saravá, Baiana.
