  • Papa Legba!

     

     

    PAPA LEGBA

    Legbaveve

    Article by Mambo Samantha Corfield

    Our dear Papa Legba (Papa Alegba in New Orleans Voodoo) is probably one of the most popular lwa (Vodou spirits) ever.  His ability to open doors, smooth roads, and in general help us get things done is legendary!  He can create possibilities, help you choose the right path in your life, and bring order to chaos!  Personally, I call on him whenever I am lost (which is often, I have no sense of direction) and even when I need a parking space.  🙂

    While he has many aspects or "personalities", his major function in both Haitian Vodou and New Orleans Voodoo, is to be the intermediary between the other lwa and humanity. His presence at the spiritual crossroads will give or deny permission to speak and interact the lwa. (Although I have to say,  I don't really recall him ever denying permission, though I suppose he would if he felt it was necessary!)  He is invoked in spell work and ritual using many analogies:  To open the gate, to open the door, to lift the veil, etc., between our human world and the spiritual world. He is always the first and last spirit invoked in any ceremony, because his permission is needed for communication between us and the lwa.  He opens and closes the doorway. 

    One of his most remarkable traits is that he is known to speak, understand, and translate all languages.  Through him you may speak to the lwa in any language.  If the lwa you are speaking to doesn't understand your language, Papa Legba will translate for you!  Just ask him!

    Papa Legba can also facilitate communication between yourself and someone with whom you are having difficulties being understood.  Let's say that you are using, for instance, our Red Male Image Candle kit to communicate some loving ideas to "Johnny".   Now you know Johnny pretty darned well and know that he doesn't always accept new ideas readily.  Simply call on Papa Legba to "translate" your petition words into words that Johnny will understand.  Calling on Papa Legba for a task like this is extremely easy.  Just talk to him:  "Papa Alegba, please translate for me.  Help Johnny understand what I want him to understand."   It is just that simple.  You don't have to even be extremely clear in what you need from Papa Alegba.  After all he is the "universal translator" – he KNOWS what you are talking about even if you aren't quite sure.

    He is such a fun character:  Often portrayed as a kindly old man, he is funny, loving, silly, and known to be a trickster.  Some people believe that he purposely plays tricks on people malvolently.  I have never found this to be true of those who serve him and those who call on him for help!  Perhaps some of his "tricks" are misinterpreted.  I believe, however, that many times people think something is attributed to Legba that wasn't him at all, but just happenstance.  At any rate, he is extremely helpful and powerful in Vodou magick and in all my years of working with him, he has never played any kind of trick on me that was mean or hateful. 

    Papa loves certain items that you should have if you desire to serve him:   A crutch or baton or walking cane; three pennies; a silver whistle (like coaches use); small toys; keys of any kind (don't throw your old keys away – give them to Papa); a straw knapsack or some kind of straw bag; a straw hat and, of course, a pipe with tobacco and a bottle of rum!  If you are setting up an altar for Papa, you want to have as many of these items as possible.  His altar cloth should be red and white or red and black or red/white/black.  He is traditionally served on Mondays.  Offerings can include rum, cigars, red beans and rice, plantains, smoked fish, chicken, and candy.  Haitian tradition includes goats and black roosters, but we aren't too likely to have those kinds of offerings here and he understands that – stick to the basics and he will be happy!  Dogs are sacred to him.  If you have a dog, s/he will usually show interest when you are calling upon Papa!  Many clients have told me that their dogs went a little bit crazy when Papa was called upon; a sure sign that he is around. 

    In Africa, his counterpart, Eshu, is a god of prophecy and taught people how to interpret oracles and readings (corresponding with the "translator" aspect of Papa).  Often he will appear as an old man on a crutch or with a cane, wearing a broad brimmed straw hat and smoking a pipe, or sprinkling water.  Because of his position as 'gate-keeper' between the worlds of the living and Les Mysteres he is often identified with Saint Peter who holds a comparable position in Catholic tradition and, of course, is depicted holding keys. . But he is also depicted in Haiti and New Orleans as St. Lazarus, or St Anthony of Padua. Using Catholic Saint candles to honor Papa Alegba is perfectly acceptable.  

    So, however you serve Papa, doing so is always a rewarding and fun experience.  Try it!

  • Washington Post Article.

    Hey Y'all! 

    I wanted to share with you a pretty recent article from the Washington Post about Affirmations. (Yes, I heard everyone's eye roll!) 

    It is about affirmations, but so much more as well! It is also about stress levels, cortisol, and even SNL and Al Franken get a mention! 

    I encourage you to give it a read – or at least a 8 minute listen :-) 

    How to make self-affirmation work, based on science

  • Practical Color Magick! Keep it Simple!

    PRACTICAL COLOR MAGICK

    by Mambo Samantha Corfield 

     

    Colors have magical associations – especially in creating your own spells.  Always use a color theme that matches what you are trying to accomplish.  

    Many of these color associations are very familiar to us:  Red or pink for love, green for money, etc.

     

    Traditional Magickal Color Associations

    Red: Sexual Love, Good Health, Strength, Danger, Stamina, Charity

    Yellow: Joy, Comfort, Persuasion, Charm, Confidence

    Green: Money, Luck, Fertility, Energy

    Orange: Stimulation, Encouragement, Attraction, Kindness

    Blue: Tranquility, Devotion, Understanding, Health, Sincerity, Truth

    Indigo: Depression, Impulsiveness, Ambition, Dignity

    Violet: Tension, Power, Peity, Sentiment

    Black:  Death, Sickness, Removal of a Person, Removal of a Thought or Idea from someone.

     

    Numerology Color Associations

    1=Red

    2=Orange

    3=Yellow

    4=Green

    5=Blue

    6=Indigo

    7=Violet

    8=Rose

    9=Gold

     

    Gemstone Color Properties

    Agate: Basically shades of brown, irregularly banded or variegated.  Wear for vision or gum problems.

    Amethyst: Bluish violet to deep purple in color. Wear for expelling poisons and toning the body.

    Bloodstone: Bright green to dark green, contains small spots of red jasper. Wear for excessive bleeding or to prevent hemorrhages.

    Chrysolite (Peridot): Usually olive green, sometimes yellow or brown. Wear to prevent fevers and also to prevent nightmares.

    Coral: Both red and white coral prevent bleeding. Wear to avert the "evil eye." Wear for scars and ulcers.

    Garnet: Deep red. Wear for the heart and as a stimulant.

    Jade: Green. Soothing, healing; wear for eye problems, kidneys, help strengthen muscles.

    Lapis Lazuli: Blue to violet-blue to greenish blue. Eye problems. A very strong stone.

    Ruby: Deep red. Wear for problems of the blood, lack of body warmth, poor circulation.

    Topaz: Brown, yellow, or pink. Wear to sooth and calm, banishing nightmares and curing insomnia.

     

    So, how do you use these things?  First of all, get creative.  Think about what you want to accomplish.  Choose your items with a theme to them.   When you are purchasing items

    for magick, try to shop only for that.  Keep your intention in mind while you are shopping for each item.   Okay.  Now you are home with all your magick stuff, right?  Let the items

    guide you as to what to do with them.   Now we realize that this all sounds somewhat simplistic.  But if you are just starting in magick – it is good to keep it simple.   

    Other option:  Go get one of our nifty, handy-dandy spell kits at www.spellmaker.com!

    In service,

  • Love Doll 411! Tips and Tricks for Love Doll Use!

    A Voodoo Love Doll is one of the most powerful tools at your disposal! Here's the 411 on the subject of love doll use (deluxe or regular – doesn't matter):

    Never, ever do your love doll when you are in any way feeling negative about your HD.

    You must be feeling positive, loving, supportive and very much in love with your HD otherwise what are you sending them?????  If you don't feel like doing a doll session, then don't.  It isn't mandatory to do them any set number of days, times, or sessions. You should always approach the love doll like you are going out on a date with your HD. 🙂  You should be happy, positive, and excited that you are going to talk with th

    Talk to your doll as if it were your HD.

    Don't always ask for something (a call, to return to you, etc.). Instead, some of the sessions simply use the doll to send your love, your support for any troubled times that s/he might be going through, the message that the door is always open, etc.).  Indeed, you can and should use your doll part of the time to ask for all that you are willing to give to be returned, but it is an extremely good tool to use simply to send warm and fuzzy feelings.

    If it seems to you that your HD is "overwhelmed" then make your love doll sessions a little more casual.  Do the ritual as instructed, however, maybe just talk about some fun times that you have had in the past or tell your HD what happened to you that day, something like that.  Remember, it is YOUR energy that is getting through to your HD – so careful what you send; if you send pain, chaos, resentment, etc., that is most likely what your HD will receive and probably return to you.

    Whether you are using a deluxe love doll or a regular love doll, you are still sending some pretty powerful information out there, so make it count and make it good.  (And really the difference in whether you use a deluxe or a regular love doll is mainly based on your HD; if they are a stubborn cuss, then deluxe in the way to go; if they are more easy going, then regular is the way to go!) Truthfully, I think that everyone who is working on love spells should use a love doll if they can.  (Financial and living concerns come first, that is why I say use if it you can.)  That doll can be your best friend, your open pipeline of communication to your HD, and a powerful tool to send and receive the right kind of messages with your HD.

    And, lastly, a little bit of common sense goes a long way:   Think about what you really and truly want your HD to be thinking of you, think of how you want things to remind him/her of you, think of how you want him/her to be picturing you and put that into your doll.
