about me
I am a bit of an eclectic pyschonaut who has been forging his own spiritual path now for many years trying to find out what works (for me) and what does not. Do not though, i repeat, do not try to follow me. Oh, i know where i'm going alright but that's no reason you would want to go there as well. I resonate well with many spirits, but have found Papa Legba, the Gedes and the Simbis closest to my heart and head. Lately i have also realized that i must also be drawn to Ogou as it recently dawned on me that this must be why i have surrounded myself with so many edged weapons. I have an extensive collection of Indonesian keris (sacred blade of the Malays) and my altar room is literally ringed with sharp, pointy iron things. But if i were forced to say what my path is i guess i would say it is the path of the drum. It is drumming that has led me to Vodou and many other good things in my life. Drumming is my main service to the spirits and they have treated me well for it.

Re: keeping the secret
(in Vodou)
Lena,
You are not alone. There are others here who are also "their own house". The spirits have shared many "secrets" with me and these "secrets" are just for me, for my own house. Sharing these secrets probably wouldn't do much for others as the... read more discussion post on Sun, December 6, 2009 - 8:54 PM

Re: Disney and Voodoo
(in Vodou)
Well i, for one, would never trust Disney to get anything right culturally beyond 1950s white America.
These main characters (the pretty girl and the prince) look very interesting in that if they weren't given brown skin they could just as easily... read more discussion post on Sat, November 21, 2009 - 8:33 PM
