VOODOO DOLLS OF THE LOA & ORISHA
I make these Voodoo dolls for clients who want to start working with Voodoo Magic and to attract the specific blessings of a particular Loa or Orisha. Each doll is hand-made by me personally, starting with natural Louisiana products and taking into account the attributes and specific of each God and Goddess of the Voodoo pantheon.
Each Voodoo doll is unique, yet true to its purpose. It can be used to obtain blessings or it can be the center-piece and focus of the altar you wish to construct to your Loa or Orisha. As you work with each doll, it will become a bridge in your relationship to the Loa or Orisha.
I always use natural textiles in a wide variety of colors, style, and texture. When it is perfect, it is sent to the client with complete instructions on its care and potential magic.
A unique intercessor who will communicate back and forth between the worlds! It is always best to obtain a reading to determine which Lwa or Orisha will work best with you!
The color of the doll's clothing corresponds to the desired outcome—for example, white for purity or healing, red for passion or love, and green for prosperity. Once the doll is created, it is often personalized with the individual's hair, a piece of clothing, or a personal belonging. This connection to the person makes the voodoo doll more potent in its ability to influence their well-being. Voodoo practitioners use the Creole voodoo dolls in different rituals and spells, depending on the intended purpose. For instance, a healing ritual may involve massaging the doll's corresponding body part while reciting prayers or incantations. Alternatively, a protection spell might involve placing the doll in a safe space or burying it in the ground to ward off negative energies.

Instead, they are used to create a positive influence and establish a connection between the physical and spiritual realms.
