Coven - Season 2, Episode 6: Teresa Urrea

For our next episode, we're welcoming Teresa Urrea, known as "La Santa de Cabora," into our Coven. We explore her natal chart in connection with her extraordinary healing abilities and revolutionary spirit in 19th-century Mexico. We discuss her miraculous transformation at age 16, her powerful blend of indigenous healing practices with spiritual activism, and how she became "the most dangerous girl in Mexico" by inspiring indigenous resistance against the Díaz regime, all before her exile to the United States at age 19.Coven is a Stars, Etc ProductionWritten & Hosted by Jenna Scott and Socorro Erekani Carillo-LopezExecutive Producer: Jenna ScottProduced and Directed by Sierra BarterAudio Engineer: Josh BrumleyAudio Assistant: Christopher Bryan AmaralGraphic Design: Jacob ScottMusic by Jeffrey Boyle and Jenna ScottCreated by Jenna Scott and Reilly HailSources:Bitto, Robert. 2017.
