    I'm interested in voodoo because I had a dream where a man in red and yellow Nigerian clothing, he told me he's my ancestor and that he was a voodoo priest. He made it clear that the white side of my family demonized his religion. My family is from Louisiana. After this dream i took a ancestry DNA test and sure enough I have Nigerian DNA. I'm trying to educate myself on his beliefs to honor him and honor my Yoruba ancestors.

    What do you think of:
    They are the Three-Johns. Black John, Indio John, and White John. Representatives of the Africans, the Natives, and the Europeans cultures. They find themselves all in the same boat as slaves. None of them asked to be there, none of them want to be there, and none of them particularly like one another. The only thing they share is the desire to go home. All three men are paddling in a different direction, each towards their respective homeland.
    A storm blows in, and the ocean gets choppy. Each John rows harder and harder, but still, the boat goes nowhere. Each John begins to pray in their native tongue for divine intercession. A woman appears above them, and the storm calms. Black John sees her as Yemaya. Indio John sees her as Attaberia, and White John recognizes Mother Mary. None of them are wrong.
    Our Lady of Charity tells the Three-Johns they can never return to the world they once knew. However, they could go home in the New World, but only together. The skies clear, and the New World, the shore of the Americas lay insight. They begin to paddle in the same direction not just as three men but now as three brothers.
    New Word Voudou was born, one-third African, one-third Indio, and one-third European. Anyone saying that New World Voudou is only for certain people is ignorant of the religion. They do not speak for the Loa, The Cemis, the Saints or any of the 21 Commissions of Spirits. No way do they speak for God! New World Voudou belongs to the New World and all its people. There is no chosen race, and there is no chosen one. God's chosen people are all people.
    God, PapaBon Dios, or Papa Bondye is a mystery which is simply beyond human comprehension. Therefore God delegates power, in a descending hierarchical fashion, to beings who we can comprehend. In New World Voudou, there are three beings, or Loa, which are the closest to God that humans can understand and to us appear directly under God. All three Loa have direct ties to the sun of our solar system and operate on a cosmic level.
    They are:
    Gran Solier is the light of the sun.
    Gran Toro Sentao is the heat of the sun.
    Gran Simbi Rey Del Agua also known as King Monlinu, is the sun's light sparkling on the waters.
    Only in the most exceedingly rare circumstance would they directly intervene in human affairs. It is a near certainty they would not directly communicate with humans either, as humans are not advanced enough to make sense of their language. These Loa speak through other Loa. Loa who have the ears to hear them and the tongue to communicate to humans. That is not to say Gran Solier, Gran Simbi or Gran Toro are not reachable by prayers, it just goes chain of command and similarly back down.
    We can see the Three Brothers, the Three Johns, as a microcosm to the macrocosm of Three Gran Loa.
    Gran Solier-White John-European Culture
    Gran Toro Sentao- Black John-African Culture
    Gran Simbi Rey Del Aqua- Indio John-Indo Culture
    It is through the will of God and transmissions of there three powerful Gran Loa that New World Voudou came into being. Going a step further, we can see the difference between these transmissions as the crystallized up the material plane, each with the same mission, but in its specific way.
    Gran Toro Sentao
    Haitian Voudou is most certainly the purest transmission of Gran Toro Sentao, the most African in tradition and line of Voudou where animal sacrifices are most common. It was from Gran Toro Sentao the mighty Petro Loa where born. The Petro answered the call for revolution against tyranny and demanded the blood of former slaver masters as payment for the petition.
    Gran Solier
    Dominican Voudou is the transmission of Gran Solier. European spiritist practices of Alan Kardec and the Mes Blanca or White Table serving as the foundation for Dominican Voudou. A backdrop for the prismatic spray of 21 colors, each containing the specific frequency for a particular Division of Loa. The oldest of the three lines of New World Voudou, Dominican or 21 Divisions Voudou, gave the order of hierarchy for its younger siblings.
    Gran Simbi Rey del Agua
    Puerto Rican Voudou, also known as Sanse, is guided and influenced most strongly by Gran Simbi Del Agua or King Molinu. Also seen as Yo-Cha-Hu, the Great Sky Father of the Taino peoples and head of the Cemi, the spirits of the Taino. In Sanse there is not only the Divison of the Indio headed by the Indo Loa Tinjo Alawe but the Commission of the Indio Spirits. The Cemi are honored side by side with the Loa and the Saints. Puerto Rican Voudou adopted much from Taino spiritual practices. The enlisting of Tobacco as a spiritual emissary, blowing a conch shell to call the spirits and making clay or gourd pots to house and honor the dead. The practice of Indio and Creole spiritism, a more informal method of spiritism is also employed, asking for Cordon, or protection of the Indio and Creole spirits specifically.
    These three specific transmissions of New World Voudou allow the religion to serve as many people as possible. Each person has a unique frequency and will better resonate with one of the three transmissions of New World Voudou over the others. All three serve as launchpads for spiritual growth and evolution, and all three are open to all peoples.

    Hello! I’m Wiccan and started my Wiccan journey not that long ago, but I’m also deeply interested in voodoo, I don’t want to sound rude or anything but, dot ancestors and family have to originate from Africa to practice voodoo correctly and safely? If I contact Papa Legba, will he care if I’m a white American? Basically what I’m trying to ask is do the Loas discriminate?

    • @tedvoodoo
      @tedvoodoo  3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I am glad you ask! Generally they don’t discriminate but however you must be careful with some Loas specifically the Petro loas! Some loas were born during the slavery time and can still be mad at your ancestors! I would suggest you to do a reading before you get into contact with any loas so that you may know the Loas that are naturally drawn to you specifically ,cause its wiser when the loas choose you instead of you choosing them

    Hi Ted. Happy to find your videos. This is very new to me. It seems like I have been contacted by Ayizan and I'm trying to understand it all. I was praying last year for various things and set up an ancestor alter. I was also starting to write and set up a herbal medicine business while experiencing a bad time at home. I think she may have stepped in to inspire a lot of this and to help me and my son, but I didn't realise until very recently. I bought her white flowers and bananas the other day to thank her. I have to meditate more to try to understand it.

    Which path is your purpose and who lights up a path of productive passion ?
    we are all diverse but how is your life
    Daily?
    Western world mediocrity is draining. Will people just die in a cycle of unfinished regret ?
    Sinking to sewer of social decay.
    Unless we come to a way to uniting and we can all see a purpose inside to drive a bridge over the divide... then we will always be slaves to the sick.
    when we isolate our life into a world we never should be settling for.
    een as a slave in modern day is not a shackle but a shiny social media online prison.
    our
    prime creator
    , is lowering a sacred force. Seen to souls on a incarnation to seal a remedy.
    into those who soul
    free the world 🌎 liberty, love and living in mutually beneficial symbiotic worlds of many tradition, spirituality is weaponised against the globe. We must be in alliance to all see the soul of our ancestral, rites snd lore lost to genocide of culture and diaspora. Lwa come to the incarnated karmic souls who are real, raw and ready.
    Birthed to change in rebellion of a new day. Not the fighting we are subject to old wars that never change a thing.
    We must be feeling the world. Working to align a common goal, in a paradigm. Symbiotic to build a best state of better not bitter. Bring the best in all.
    Ancestral karma and trauma are balanced.
    be aligning and redeem in redesigning the blueprint.’the world and its souled sent to sew a season of revolution. Not the old way, or the evil wicked we saw over millennia of war
    Lwa seen to souls given a sight. Walk to be a service. A sanctuary is always my own sense of healing creating and colouring worlds to be forged by my own purpose. In this, others will see a purpose and free themselves by themselves as a force.
    Or we succumb to the elite, or we stand up.
    How are we going to be alliances. The globalist 2021 anthem is playing to people who sleep, and the spirits stir for the souls who are here to start.. the time is now, the where and will works well if you see the spiritual but splendour in grounding by the beautiful earth & world. .

    Is all the water loas colors, just white, pink and blue. Which one is red and white? I saw in the Danballah video people were wearing red and gold, but I never heard of those colors being associated with the water loas. Also, can a loa pierce you in a dream almost like a snake eyes piercing on ankle. Also, you’re the first person I’ve heard say Voodoo is tolerant, I’ve never heard that before; especially from a Haitian native. So I’m really curious to understand voodoo from a real Haitian perspective. Your channel will reach those it needs too, keep up the good work.

    • @Romaine_La_Prophetesse
      @Romaine_La_Prophetesse 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      To be precise, it's not necessarily all the loas of the Petro but the way that they manifest and the rituals of petro. In Petro ceremonies, red is used and the woman/hounsi dance in a skirt that has a double layer with an opening, a mimicking of snake skin that reproduce native americans rituals ..I read this great book by Maya Deren , Divine Horseman: the Living Gods of Haitian Vodou or something like that. I highly recommend . Personally, I think the Poto Mitan (the tree at the center of the peristyle) in Haitian vodou come from the Tainos because they used to dance around a specific tree in their rituals. Candomble and other Afro-centric ceremonies don't have that middle post (if I recall correctly)...anyway it's fascinating to see the perfect blending of African, Tainos, and Catholicism in Haitian vodou that makes it very distinct.
