La Santa Muerte. Angel of Death - Mateusz La Santa Muerte Poland
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
At first, the book was published only in Polish, but I also decided to publish a small number of copies in English, because the website www.lasantamuertepoland.com which I run is in two languages: Polish and English.
Also, I get a lot of positive words and support about the site from English speakers, so I thought that maybe some of them would like to have a book written by me.
The biggest thanks go of course to my dear friends and associates who introduced me to the cult of La Santa Muerte.
Heriberto Preval Cordova, Antonio Rabanales, Ioana González, Diego Antonio Cruz, Guadalupe Torres, Esteban Ascencio.
Alejandro Aguilera, Enrique Saavedra, thank you for your teachings, prayers and literature.
Luis Martinez Alonso, La Niña Hermosa statues you create are wonderful - the best in all of Spain!
Your deep faith has always been and will be an example for me!
I thank God for allowing our paths to cross in beautiful Tarragona. Carlos, our small business has grown quite big - Nuestra Señora is watching over us, Ximena Alcántara (hotel management is your specialty - I don’t know anything about bills), Nicole (burrito could be even hotter), Jose Armando I miss the wonderful atmosphere of your home (especially Grandma Antonia’s dinners).
Clemente, I shall never forget your help, brother.
Que Dios te bendiga y la Santa Muerte te proteja.
Diego, Marco and Guillen, you actually moved Mexico to Tarragona haha!
My friends: Marek Prósiński, Kasia Ligocka, Miguel Arzate, Patrycja Świerczewska, Michał Salenciej, Olga Klimczak, Castillo Alejandro Aguilera, Diego Valdés Reyes - thanks for your support!
For those who want to read other sources about La Santa Muerte, I recommend Spanish-language books - they are written in accordance with the Mexican, Catholic tradition, as well as living faith in Our Lady. I
especially recommend La Biblia de La Santa Muerte
, Sagrada Biblia de La Santisima Muerte
and El Libro de La Santa Muerte
.
I would also like to thank the great researcher of the cult of La Santa Muerte, Dr. Andrew Chesnut, whose book Devoted to Death
, which I highly recommend is a comprehensive analysis of the cult.

I think it’s very important that it was written from the perspective of a practicing devotee of La Santa Muerte, and not from the view of a hobbyist, journalist, skeptic to Her cult or just a person who wants to earn money on Our Lady.
The book is sold at the price of printing because I believe that no devotee of La Santa Muerte should earn money on the Holy Lady. La Santa Muerte works miracles in my life every day, She is my strenght and protection. I know that I can turn to Her at any time.
The Most Holy Death constantly sends me Her blessings and graces.
I hope this book will be helpful to all those who want to know the cult of La Santa Muerte the Angel of Death.

Characteristic is that She doesn’t judge and categorize morally neither Her devotees nor their requests or even their deeds.

She was chosen as a Patroness by people excluded by society, rejected because of who they are, how they love or how they think.
Devotees who knows harsh conditions, brutal violence, lack of livelihood or a desperate social situation turn in the protection of the Holy Death, receiving the consolation of a loving Mother, whose ultimate gift is freedom from suffering and hell.
The Most Holy Death accepts all of Her children just as they are.
She isn’t interested in what religion we believe or if we don’t believe in any religion.
La Rosa Blanca smiles to Her children as they overcome their daily struggles and find strength to dedicate themselves to Her.
She is faithful and never abandons Her devotees. La Santa Muerte loves all people and helps all who come to Her with love and respect.
La Santa Muerte stays with you when all your friends forget you exist. She is called in especially hopeless cases, such as serious illness, legal problems, financial debts, lover’s infidelity, protection from evil, annihilation of the enemy, bringing love or the relieve of the suffering of the dying.
We can find hundreds of testimonies and relations of people blessed by Holy Death.
When people pray to La Santa Muerte, real miracles happen. Countless cases of healings, new love relationships, won lawsuits, improved finances, finding a new job or release from prison are common available on the internet.
People who turn to Her can easily see how their toxic relationships collapses, negative work situations changes completely and family life changes for the better.
La Santa Muerte destroys the enemies and people who threaten Her devotees and will never allow anyone to harm Her children.
La Santa Muerte is gaining more and more devotees all around the world. The cult of the Most Holy Death is rapidly spreading among people of all faiths: Catholicism, Wicca, Buddhism, Gnosticism, Hinduism and paganism. Her power and might is far greater than any deities, angels, and saints you have ever dealt with.

MATEUSZ, LA SANTA MUERTE POLAND
WHO IS LA SANTA MUERTE?
La Santa Muerte, the Holy Death, the Angel of Death, the Bony Lady, the Archangel of Light, the Holy Death, La Niña Blanca, Our Holy Lady.
She is depicted as a female skeleton in a long hooded robe, holding a scythe in one hand and a globe in the other. Sometimes She carries a scale, a human skull, a crystal ball, or an hourglass. Above Her head shines an aureole of holiness, sometimes She has angel wings. La Santa Muerte appears surrounded by flowers, skulls and owls. Dressed in the most beautiful dresses made of delicate materials, adorned with jewels and jewelry.
But who She really is?
La Santa Muerte - Holy Death
La Santa Muerte is the Most Holy Death, the Holy Death - the Angel of Death, the Guidess and Protectress of all people.
La Santa Muerte comes straight from God, She serves God, She is one of the seven angels who constantly watch before the throne of God, who are like God’s court.
God illuminates the angels with His light, and they radiate His glory,
His grace and strength, and constantly contemplate Him, worshiping God’s Majesty. They praise the glory and splendor of God Almighty. They are the most powerful beings in the universe after God and Christ.
La Santa Muerte is the Angel leading to the Kingdom of Heaven and the Herald of the coming mercy.
Traditionally, the only authority that the Holy Death has is through God, like any other saint or angel, that’s how we see Her! La Santa Muerte is NOT a Goddess!
In the dawn of Her angelic existence, She chose God and gave Herself completely to doing His will.
God entrusted to Her human souls to be brought to heavenly happiness, and La Santa Muerte, guarding people, accompanies them in their last hour. With Her holy presence She takes away fear, comforts and leads souls to purification in Purgatory.
Traditionally, we call Her the Guardianess of Purgatory
who watches over, in the name of God, the granting of relief and the liberation of souls from the torments of Purgatory. La Santa Muerte descends into the Purgatory Kingdom to free tormented souls and guide them to eternal happiness.
The gift of the Angel of Death is freedom from hell, the Holy Lady destroys evil spirits, protects against failure.
La Nina Blanca is the Angel gaining for people the complete cancellation of the debt owed by mankind to the Divine Justice.
The primary holy death was Christ’s death on the cross, making possible for people to live forever. It was the death of Christ that sanctified Death itself and thus became the Holy Death.
La Santa Muerte wept as She embraced the Savior’s lifeless body, being the first Being the Savior saw after the Crucifixion. Her sweet tears fell on His face and washed His wounds. The Holy Death welcomed Christ in the afterlife and accompanied the Son of God during the Resurrection. During these 3 days during which His body was dead, Christ was with Our Lady.
A very popular image of the Holy Death embracing Christ’s body is La Pieta.
La Pieta presents the Compassion of La Santa Muerte - Our Lady in suffering over the dead, peaceful body of Jesus, whom She will soon lead to the Resurrection. Pietà expresses Holy Death’s contribution in the Salvation and Her sorrow after the Crucifixion.
In Mexico, two oldest images of La Santa Muerte have been preserved, symbolizing the meeting of Christ with Death (His Holy Death): a wooden skeleton from the 17th century in Oaxaca and a figure from Hidalgo from the beginning of the 19th century, originally made as the image of St.
Bernard of Clarivux.
The vast majority of devotees of the Holy Death, especially in Latin American countries, perceive their devotion and deep veneration to the Angel of Death as an integral part of the Catholic faith.
The death of Christ is called the Holy Death of the Savior, the Holy Death of our Lord.
In many parts of the world, the Holy Death is the indispensable figure of the Holy Week processions, She is walking with Jesus.
The idea of the Holy death of Christ is so common that there are Iberian Catholic congregations of the faithful, both of Christ and Mary, known as the Christ of Good Death (Cristo de la Buena Muerte) and Our Lady of Good Death (Nuestra Senora de la Buena Muerte). In honor of the mystery of the Most Holy Death of the Savior, the confraternities of Good Death were established in Spain and Portugal, on Good Friday wearing carved figures of Christ and Our Lady of Good Death, for example the Confraternity of Cofradía de Penitencia del Santísimo Cristo de la Buena Muerte y María Santísima del
