What differentiates honest syncretism from dishonest syncretism in
spiritual traditions? How do new elements like "Ascended Masters"
influence the integrity of traditional practices like Segnature? What
ethical considerations should be made when integrating new beliefs into
established traditions? Dr. Puca’s exploration offers an academic yet
accessible analysis, ideal for those interested in religious studies,
cultural anthropology, and the evolution of magical practices.
Dr. Angela Puca delves into the intricate world of syncretism within
religious and esoteric practices, using her fieldwork in the Italian
folk magic tradition of Segnature as a primary case study.
