Louisiana Creole Witch Healer Woman of God Queen in the Making Divine Feminine Living Ancestor Sacred Channel Love Beauty Force of Nature Goddess

I came to the River in pain. It was then where I began learning the ropes of surrender. Little did I know I was being healed and given space to release, like a mother and its child. When I chose to step deeper into my spirituality, I did not know the river wasn't merely a force of nature, but a sacred entity. I didn't know power was there. Now I stand at the river grateful for the shedding, healing, care, peace and space given to me when I felt weak. Growing into more of me, embracing my calling in this life is to embody a unique brilliance for myself and others. When I don't hide my light, I allow others to see their reflection. We all have the potential to be mirrors, but a divine mirror requires clarity of intention, presence & pureness of heart. It also requires a deep relationship with self and with our creator. I am The Magic Mirror, I wish to help people identify and embody their truths, light and build esteem and relationship within themselves, radiating outward. Join me....

[voodoocarving]

Ezili Danto is female supernatural entity in Haitian Voodoo, which is considered the patroness of motherhood in general and single mothers in particular. She is also the patroness of lesbians and homosexuality as such.

Ezili Danto, or Ezili Danto', is the "manifestation of Erzulie, the divinity of love. It is said that Ezili Danto has a dark complexion and is maternal in nature. While she represents hardworking women and mothers, Ezili Danto also has the power to destroy. Her vehement displeasure has earned her the reputation of being the red eyed, "Erzulie, ge-rouge." Her destructive powers often come in the form of natural disasters and the forces of nature. Ezili Dantor is honoured as the spirit who initiated the Haitian Revolution. She fought in the Revolution alongside men.

Most often it appears as an adapted icon of the Mother of God of Czestochowa. The icon came to Haiti along with Polish mercenaries during the Haitian Revolution. This and other my stuff you can find on my Etsy store

Nesha Watches/Rewatches Death in Paradise || Season 2

Episode 1: Murder on the Plantation

Precisely the kinda events on a plantation I can get behind. I remember this episode. Kinda hard to forget when they begin the joint with this absolute baddie being kissed in the mouf by a old white man on a plantation. *Just make it go away.*

I love Catherine tryna set Camille up on a date for Erzulie Celebrations. I think sometimes Catherine takes me out of it because she's just a French woman. They should have an actual islander in that role since she's such a staple of the show.

Erzulie/ Family Of Loa

Erzulie (sometimes spelled Erzili or Èzili) is a family of loa, or spirits, in Voodoo. She is a great sport for any one to work with. And yes any religion can work with her.

She's the Vodou Lwa (spirit) who represent the essence of love and women. She has many forms, from fierce warrior mother to red-eyed weeping crone, and can be counted among either the Rada or Petwo lwa (spirits or gods).

During the times of slavery, and Petwo lwa were dark and powerful. (Not evil) Erzulie manifests with deep passion, and Her mood can range from the height of joy to the depths of misery.

There are a number of sister forms of Erzulie, and She is sometimes is considered by some to be a triple Goddess.(but is not) (As such She has three husbands–Damballah (is the original force of creation, believed to be the inner voice of God), Agwe (the spirit of the sea), and Ogoun (warrior spirit and iron) Like the Triple Goddess in other religions.

Erzulie Dantor: 👇is a spirit the essence of love not the Voodoo Goddess of love, romance, art, jealousy, passion, & sex. Erzulie Dantor is not the patron loa of lesbian women, nor domestic violence. But is the patron loa of New Orleans. She is deeply caring and dedicated to her children and will stop at nothing to protect them. She is also a guardian and protector of orphans, sick children, and those who have been abused. Erzulie Dantor is a mulatto woman who is often portrayed as the Black Madonna, or the Roman Catholic “Saint Virgin Mary, sometimes Barbara Africana”. She loves knives and is considered the protector of newly consecrated Voodoo priests and priestesses. A common syncretic depiction of Erzulie Dantor is St. Jeanne D’Arc, who is displayed carrying or supporting a sword. Which is pretty cool.

You can see that she holds a baby the baby's name is Anais. Anais is her daughter she is the translator for Ezulie Dantor because she cannot speak only can say one syllable, the sound of her tongue clicking on the roof of her mouth, “ke-ke-ke-ke!”. Story goes during the revolution Manbo Mayinet Priestess call on her and her husband to help against the slave owners. During possession a priestess her tongue was cut out by Haitian Revolutionaries who feared she would betray them. just in case she is captured she won't speak their secrets. She is now a Lwa in the Petwo Nation. But their other stores too about her that you can read.

Rada:

Erzulie Fréda Dahomey: ☝️ the Rada aspect of Erzulie, is the spirit of love, beauty, jewelry, dancing, luxury, and flowers. She wears three wedding rings, one for each husbands. Her symbol is a heart, Her colors are pink, blue, white and gold, and Her favorite is jewelry, perfume, sweet cakes and liqueurs. She is femininity and compassionate. But has a darker side. She is seen as jealous and spoiled and within some vodoun circles is considered to be lazy. When She mounts a person (possessed) She flirts with all the men, and can treats all the women as rivals. In Christian she is the Virgin and Child, because She is the mother of Ti. Common syncretizations include Our Lady of Lourdes because She is usually depicted as light-skinned.

She is said to be the most powerful sorceress in the pantheon. Her colors are pink and pale blue, she like pink champagne and roses, frosted cakes, jewelry . Make Shure to keep Her things clean or she will not arrive in the temple.” She is a powerful spirit. To receive her as a guest during rituals, practitioners must treat her with honors due to her status as a fine lady. She loves heady perfumes, jewels, and anything related to beauty and coquetry.

Erzulie Mansur: (Erzulie the Blessed) - Represents maternal love and protects children from harm.

Granne Erzulie (Grandma Erzulie) - Represents the wisdom granted by experience and maturity and grandmotherly kindness and love. She is syncretized with St. Anne, the mother of the Virgin Mary.

Petro:

Erzulie D'en Tort: / Erzulie Dantor (Erzulie of the Wrongs) Protects women and children and deals revenge against those who wrong them.

Erzulie Balianne: (Erzulie the Gagged) - "Silences" (heals or calms) hearts. Keeps secrets or ensures that secrets will not be revealed. Helps people to forget past loves and overcome passionate emotions. Her "horses" tend to speak as if they have a gag in their mouth. She is syncretized with The Immaculate Heart.

Erzulie Mapiangue: (Erzulie the Suckler) Deals with the pain of childbirth and the protection of unborn and newborn babies. Her "horses" tend to get in a fetal position or birthing position and cry tears of pain. Common syncretization is as the Virgin and Infant of Prague, which wear matching red velvet robes and gold crowns.

Erzulie Yeux Rouge or Erzulie Ge-Rouge (Red-Eyed Erzulie) Takes revenge on unfaithful lovers. Her "horses" cry tears of bitter sadness.

Terry Pratchett literally said okay witch doctor and her resurrected voodoo swamp god boytoy vs authoritarian fairy godmother who sold her soul to her own reflection vs the fairy godmother's cranky little sister who is somehow the scariest person involved. And they're all middle aged at the youngest. No one is doing it like him.

[epickiya722]

Okay, just finished this movie called "Erzulie" and um... LOVE IT.
