West Indian Sorcery, also known as Obeah (5 letters), is a form of spiritual practice and belief system originating in the Caribbean. It is a combination of African, European, and Native American spiritual practices and beliefs, and is used for healing, protection, and divination. Obeah is often associated with black magic, but it is not necessarily evil or malicious. It is believed to be a powerful force that can be used for good or bad, depending on the intentions of the practitioner.
