Happy Fete Ghede!! . We’re spoiling our Dead People today.... ;) We’ve got our shop’s central altar table dedicated today to the Barons, Brigittes, and the Ghede Lwa; fantastically powerful spirits! . If you’re in town today, come celebrate with us! We have a special Healing bath blessed to provide Healing in any direction it is needed; a small offering or donation to the table can be made to partake of the Ghede’s blessings. . If you’re not local, you can participate too! We’re doing a Setting of Light today to the Ghede that you can join in on, with candles that can be set for you (just message me directly to have your Light set; $15 per candle and I can email you an invoice) . #neworleans #magazinestreet #feteghede #PapaGhede #Baron #Brigitte #KWA #KWALAKWA #VIVGHEDE #haitianvodou #Vodou #realvodou #deadpeopleneedlovetoo #houngansofinstagram #DarkLadyNola (at The Dark Lady of New Orleans) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpucw_WnjPR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1pebfchpr7v2o
