Introduction
Santa Muerte, Holy Death, la Flaquita, the Bony Lady, the Pretty Lady, the Skinny Lady, Mother Death. While she goes by many nicknames and takes on a variety of physical forms, Santa Muerte is quite simply the personification of death. She is responsible for a vast multitude of miracles.
Santa Muerte can help you with just about anything imaginable.
Do you need:
- More money?
- A new job?

- Protection for your family?
- Or perhaps a little bit of luck?
All of these and much, much more are within Santa Muerte’s scope of practice.
Sound too good to be true?
Let us assure you that Santa Muerte wields extraordinary power and influence over your life, whether you asked for it or not!
She is always present, always has been present, and always will be present in your life.
As the famous saying goes, “There are only two things guaranteed in this life: death and taxes.” It does not matter where you live, what your upbringing, how much wealth you have, or how well you take care of yourself. Eventually, you will become very acquainted with Santa Muerte. As you will soon learn, however, this is not to meant to cause fear and upset as you are in excellent hands.
Culturally, America tends to be different from Mexico as well as other cultures in that Americans are typically uncomfortable with the idea or thought of death, while other cultures view it for what it is: an inevitability. By forming a relationship with Santa Muerte, you are able to find peace, solace, and comfort in your own mortality, which will allow you to live life to its absolute fullest.
In the end, isn’t that what we all seek? A happy, full, rich, and fun life?
