@femmedeitiesnet | event one | african diaspora ↳ erzulie fréda dahomey

Haitian African spirit of love, beauty, jewelry, dancing, luxury, and flowers. Her symbol is a heart, her colours are pink, blue, white and gold, and her favourite sacrifices include jewellery, perfume, sweet cakes and liqueurs.

Coquettish and very fond of beauty and finery, Erzulie Freda is femininity and compassion embodied, yet she also has a darker side; she is seen as jealous and spoiled and within some Vodoun circles is considered to be lazy. (x)
