Baron Samedi

Baron Samedi stands at the crossroads, where the souls of dead humans pass on their way to Guinee. He is a sexual loa, frequently represented by phallic symbols and he noted for disruption, obscenity, debauchery, and having a particular fondness for tobacco and rum. Additionally, he is the loa of sex and resurrection, and in the latter capacity he is often called upon for healing by those near or approaching death, as it is only Baron who can accept an individual into the realm of the dead. He is considered a wise judge, and a powerful magician. Offer cigars and rum with the incense.

Aida Wedo

She is the mother figure. She is the rainbow. Together with Damballah they are the unitary forces of human sexuality. Her symbol is
also a serpent. She is manifestation as one of the creation Loa's. She is happiness and love and together with Erzulie is the ultimate in marriage and love. She represents continuity and strength, integration and wholeness, as the rainbow contains all the colors, split from white light. Integrity, whether physical (structural), or moral, is the natural result of integration--weaving together elements that are very different. Her message is one of healing and strength for the whole of the world. Offer her rice and milk with the incense.

Damballah

Known as the serpent god, he is one of the most popular. Dumballah is the father figure. He is benevolent, innocent, a loving father. He doesn't communicate well, as though his wisdom were too aloof for us. Dumballah is the snake. He plunges into a basin of water which is built for him, or climbs up into a tree. Being both snake and aquatic deity, he haunts rivers, springs, and marshes. Again, as the snake he is rather uncommunicative, but a loving quiet presence. Dumballah does not communicate exact messages, but seems to radiate a comforting presence which sort of sends a general spirit of optimism into all people present. He aids in cleansing and beginning new cycles. Offer him eggs with the incense.

Erzulie

Erzulie is the female energy of Legba. She has tremendous power and is feared as much as she
is loved. Also, she has several different roles:
goddess of the word, love, help, goodwill, health,
beauty and fortune, as well as goddess of
jealousy, vengeance, and discord. She is passion
and soulmates. Erzulie is not a loa of elemental
forces, but THE loa of ideal dreams, hopes and
aspirations. She is the ability to conceptualize,
the ability to dream, the artistic ability to
create. Offer her bananas and water
with the incense.

Ghede

(Papa Ghede) Ghede is the eternal figure in black, controlling the eternal crossroads at which everyone must someday cross over. Ghede is health and healing. He has the power to bring the living back to health by refusing to let them pass through the crossroads of death. Ghede is a clown, an interrupter, a coarse fellow. But he is history too. As keeper of the cemetery he has intimate contact with the dead. And he is quite generous with his information. Even when he is clowning or performing his erotic antics, if you can pull him aside and ask him a serious question you will get a serious and reliable answer. Another of Ghede's great powers is as the protector of children. Ghede generally does not like to see children die. They need a full life. Thus he is the loa to go to when seeking help for a sick child. Ghede is also god of eroticism. Ghede is neither delighted by eroticism, and certainly not shamed by it. If anything Ghede is amused by the universal presence of eroticism and humans' constant need to pretend that it is other than what it is. Ghede has the power over zombies and decides whether or not people can be changed into animals. Offer him any food and drink with the incense..but plenty of it!

Simbi

Simbi is used to effectively speed up the process
towards job satisfaction, opening the right doors when needed and is said to send spirit forces to guide the wearer in the direction of fulfilment
. He is the loa water serpent. Simbi offers
creativity and is the loa of magick and
direction. He is also a blockbuster as he
can get through any and all obstacles.
Offer Simbi bread soaked in water and
wrapped in a green pepper with
the incense.

Legba

Old man who guards the crossroads. He is the origin of life, so he must be saluted each time a service or any other activity with the loa will begin. Legba controls the crossing over from one world to the other. He is the contact between the worlds of spirit and of flesh. He can deliver messages of gods in human language and interpret their will. He is the god of destiny and is also the intermediary between human beings and divine gods. Legba is one of the most important loa in voodoo. He is the first loa to be called in a service, so that he can open the gates to the spirit world and let them communicate with other loa. No loa dares show itself without Legba's permission. Whoever has offended him finds himself unable to address his loa and is deprived of their protection. He is the origin and the male prototype of voodoo. He is justice. Offer him cigars, rum and candy with the incense.
