Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Macumba is a syncretic Afro-Brazilian religion that involves spirit possession and trance-like ceremonies where mediums provide guidance and advice to clients. Orisha is a religion practiced in Afro-Caribbean and Latin-American communities that also involves spirit possession but is not commonly associated with Brazil. Trance can be a general term used to describe any altered state of consciousness, but it does not necessarily have a cultural or religious context. Susto is a term used to describe a type of fright or shock in some Latin-American cultures and is not related to spirit possession or guidance.
