Summary
Erzulie Freda is probably the most popular of all the Lwas, both in New Orleans Voodoo as well as Haitian Vodou. She is the “goddess” people view as the most beautiful and the one who can help with love and romance. Her colors are pretty pinks and white, her Catholic syncretic Saint is a beautiful image - Our Lady of Sorrows (Mater Dolorosa) - and let’s face it, people like attractive people, places and things. And, they like the deities they worship to be attractive, too.
This article is meant to be an introduction to Erzulie Freda from the perspective of New Orleans Voodoo and hopefully provides some clarification about her as a Voodoo Lwa and about Voodoo Lwas, in general.
This document is one of many received through Creole Moon's Conjure Club, the club for serious students of conjure. Now available for the first time to non-members.
This ebook is another of the original and unique documents subscribers receive as members of Creole Moon's Conjure Club.
