Erzuliekiss Hello everyone!
Of course, we here at Spellmaker.com are gearing up for our annual Valentine's Day Service to the lovely Vodou love goddess,Erzulie Freda! Many of you have already sent in your petitions to be included in the free ritual. We are hoping that many more of you will!

One thing I have noticed is that many of you are still worried that your service to Erzulie will not be "enough" for her. Certainly, it is understandable when working with the lwa who is known for loving opulence and luxury that one might have these concerns. Although I have tried to let people know that even the smallest service done with a good heart will be well received, there are still those who wish they could do more. 🙂

I have some ideas for you! Remember that "luxury" can be a state of mind and an environment can be luxurious without being expensive. So first start thinking of the space that you will be doing your service in. If you purchased the one-day ritual kit or plan on doing the ritual as written on the website make whatever area you will be doing your service in as lovely as you can! Even if you temporarily use one of your own bed sheets as an altar cloth, that is okay because you can spray your perfume on it and make it something special.

Set the mood for the ritual with any candles you have and put on romantic music or tune your radio to a soft rock or other type of station that plays the kind of music that would set the mood for romance.

Do you have jewelry? You can put it on the altar and "give" it to Erzulie! That doesn't mean you can't wear it! Of course you can, but if you dedicate it to her, then you have given her something wonderful.

Do you have old magazines laying around? Cut out pictures of beautiful things – jewelry, clothes, perfume, etc. Make a simple collage out of them and put them on your altar for her!

How about the rest of you out there? What ideas do you have for serving Erzulie in a respectful, but economical, way? Just click on the little link below the post that says "comments" and leave us your suggestions!

Love,
Mambo Sam

    I went to the dollar store and bought all sorts of heart, lovey dovery doilies, paperplates, a glass, all sorts of candles in the shape of hearts, roses. I got so many things but only spent about $10 total. I love to bake as well and any dessert, I have found she enjoys if I share it with her.

    Whenever I do any kind of ritual for Erzulie Freda, I like to turn off all the lights in every room and have little tea lights burning everywhere. Things just look prettier by candlelight! You can get a big bag of tea lights at WalMart, Target or even Bed Bath and Beyond for around $5.00. And tea lights come in their own little metal holder so you really don’t need candle holders for them. You can burn them singly or put a cluster of them on a pretty plate for a really nice effect. This is an inexpensive way to make the whole place look really luxurious! Ever notice how places that are more expensive to frequent (spas, nice restaurants, better clubs) like to have low lighting and lots of candles burning? It’s romantic and luxurious all at the same time! And if you have any of our love oils, you can put a drop on the top of each candle to make everything smell good, too. 😉
