What does it mean to be bougie?

The “Bougie” in “Bougie Brujas” originates from the medieval French term “bourgeoisie,” signifying someone of relative wealth that resides in urban areas. In contemporary slang, “bougie” has evolved, primarily in African American Vernacular English (AAVE), to characterize an individual, particularly a black woman, who enjoys indulging in luxurious experiences, regardless of their financial means.

Is it a good word or a bad word?

The term “bougie” is commonly employed with a connotation that characterizes someone as materialistic or pretentious. It may also denote individuals who pretend to be wealthier than they truly are by exaggerating their economic status. Often used facetiously or condescendingly, it serves as an insulting jest, irrespective of its accuracy or fairness in describing someone.

What does it mean to be a bougie bruja?

A “bougie bruja” is an individual who seeks to reclaim and redefine the term “bougie,” which has often been used negatively to stereotype affluent black women. It’s about transforming the narrative into one of personal, spiritual, and financial empowerment. A “bougie bruja” embraces the idea of attracting positive abundance into their life and utilizes their manifestation abilities to give back to charities, their communities, or anyone in need. Bougie Brujas remember they can’t pour from a cup half full. This person recognizes the importance of self-sufficiency, understanding that you can’t support others effectively if you’re running on empty – much like the principle of the Ace of Cups in tarot. But if a “bougie bruja” were a tarot card, they’d embody the spirit of the 6 of Pentacles, meaning one who gives and receives, with a touch of the Magician’s transformative energy on the side.

A bougie bruja knows their worth and adds tax. They safeguard their heart because they understand its priceless nature. Recognizing the preciousness of their time and energy, they are mindful about where they choose to invest it. For a “bougie bruja,” spirit work is rooted in love, particularly self-love, and radiating love to others. They comprehend that love represents the most potent form of magic, and that they are themselves a manifestation of love. In the essence of a “bougie bruja,” love is not just a concept; it is their very being, and they believe you are an embodiment of it too. They connect with the divine within themselves, whether it’s a God, Goddess, or a gender-neutral force, and channel this power to contribute positively to the universe. They understand that to receive goodness, one must first do good, recognizing that goodness is a characteristic trait, not merely an action.

Before seeking a reading or any form of guidance, a “bougie bruja” acknowledges that their own optimism and intentions shape their outcomes. They grasp that the cards have already been dealt and rest within their hands, my goal is to simply help you interpret them. Beyond love, bougie brujas delve into the profound realms of magic and manifestation, where learning, listening, knowing, communication, confidence, and accountability all hold equal significance.

To quote the words of Baby Tate’s song ‘I Am,’ a bougie bruja is:

“Healthy. Wealthy. Rich. And that bitch. They are gonna go get that bag.
They are not gonna take your shit.
They are protected. Well respected.
They are queens. They are dreams.
They do what they wanna do.
And they’re who they want to be.”

Here at bougie brujas, we believe that manifestation is the wishes of the heart and the work of the soul. We send you love and light wherever you decide to go.
