Alaso!! May is the month to celebrate the hardworking Spirit, Kouzen Zaka. 🌿 In New Orleans Voodoo, we honor Spirits from various traditions, including Kouzen Zaka, the Lwa (Haitian Spirit Force) who rules over farming, agriculture & business. His days of the week are Thursday and Saturday, and His colors are denim blue, white & green. Often likened to Saint Isidore the Farmer, some of Kouzen’s favorite offerings include yams, cassava bread, tchaka (a hearty Haitian stew with red beans, corn & pork), white rum & sugar cane. Kouzen Zaka is the Patron of all who work the land. A Haitian sustenance farmer who enjoys the simple things in life, He is beloved & respected by all for His hard-working nature & unparalleled skill. Inside of His Djakout (Haitian straw sack), He keeps healing herbs, candles & offerings from those whom He blesses. His wife and business partner, Kouzine, sells His crops at the market & often assists with His petitions. In New Orleans Voodoo, we call upon Kouzen Zaka when we need help with finding a job, bringing success to a business venture, strong relationships and partnerships, and herbal medicine. He reminds us to take pride in our hard work, to value self-sufficiency and to cherish the land that sustains us. Alaso Kouzen! . . . #voodooauthentica #voodooshop #neworleans #alaso #kouzen #kouzenzaka

Gris Gris is ready to go to #voodooauthentica in New Orleans!
Repost @alyssahennegan • • • • • • 💀 Voodoo Authentica™ of New Orleans Cultural Center & Collection is a Practitioner-owned and operated establishment, founded in 1996. They’re located on the quiet and picturesque rue Dumaine, in the historic French Quarter of New Orleans. This definitely wouldn’t be for me, but if you’re in New Orleans looking for an experience- this surly would be one! They provide a complete line of locally handmade Voodoo Dolls, Gris Gris Bags, Potion Oils, and other unique New Orleanian, Haitian, & African Spiritual Arts & Crafts. They also offer Rituals, Readings, Spiritual Work & Consultations performed by our experienced team of In-House Spiritualists. I’ve always had an interest in places like this, and the history behind it all, but I would never dabble with it! - but to each their own! Have you ever been to this place or any place like this? How did it make you feel?! Did you learn anything new from your experience? 📍 New Orleans 🫶🏻 @voodooauthentica 🌅 Prints Are Available 📸 iPhone 13 Pro Max — 🏷️ TAGS | #neworleans #voodooauthentica #voodooauthenticaneworleans #louisianatoursandadventure #louisianatravel #photography #NOLAPhotoGuild

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day, everyone! May the Luck of the Irish and the many Blessings of Papa Dambala Wedo be with you!! 💚🍀🐍 Here at Voodoo Authentica of New Orleans, we honor Spirits from various traditions, including Papa Dambala Wedo. Often likened with Saint Patrick, He is the Lwa (Haitian Spirit Force) who rules over balance, harmony & purity. Papa Dambala’s days of the week are Thursday and Sunday, and His colors are white & green. His favorite offering is a white egg placed on top of a mound of white flour. He also enjoys all “white” foods, such as milk (especially coconut milk), white rice, and white cake. His day of service is Thursday, though He can be served on Sunday as well. We call on Papa Dambala for His assistance with many matters, including those which require grounding, clarity & peace. Beloved for His gentle nature, Papa Dambala’s wisdom & strength provide us with a strong Spiritual foundation. Together with His counterpart, Ayida Wedo, He brings balance, harmony & stability to our lives. Blessings Y’all! ✨ . . . . #voodooauthentica #voodooshop #dambalawedo #stpatricksday #frenchquarter

Happy Twelfth Night! Are y'all ready for some King Cake? 💜💚💛👑 Here in New Orleans, King Cake season reigns supreme from Twelfth Night to Mardi Gras. These delicious French pastries taste like soft, fluffy cinnamon rolls, topped with a sweet icing or glaze. A small baby figure is hidden inside of each King Cake, and whoever is lucky enough to find the baby in their slice is declared king for the day. It's now their royal duty to buy the next King Cake! Like many of our beloved Carnival traditions, the King Cake is laden with meaningful symbolism. The oval shape symbolizes the unity of faiths, and the adorning Mardi Gras colors of purple, green & gold represent justice, faith & power. The baby figure, symbolizing the baby Jesus, harkens back to the Catholic roots of the Mardi Gras season. Whichever way you slice it, this is one of the sweetest parts of Carnival! . . . #voodooauthentica #voodooshop #neworleans #carnivalseason #twelfthnight #kingcake #mardigras #frenchquarter
Mambo Chaché Lavi’s Easy New Year’s Day Black Eyed Peas I love New Year’s Eve! Time to think of all you wish to manifest in the year to come and to close the door on the stuff much better left behind. Eating Black Eyed peas is a big part of my family’s annual New Year’s Day tradition, to bring prosperity & blessings. Before I go to bed on New Year’s Eve, I get out my slow cooker, and put the following ingredients in it with love, gratitude and special intentions... 1. 1 lb Dried Camellia Black Eyed Peas which will swell all night as they cook, bringing prosperity 2. 1 lb Savoie’s Pickled Pork or 1 ham hock to represent forward motion 3. 1 lb Savoie’s Mixed Smoked Sausage (Sliced) for positive growth 4. 24 ounces Beef Bone Broth & 24 ounces Chicken Bone Broth for health 5. The Trinity - 12 ounces of mixed fresh or frozen chopped Onion, Green & Red Bell Pepper and Celery for money, love, good luck and good ol’ New Orleans flava! 6. Tony Chachere’s Original Creole Seasoning liberally sprinkled/to taste to keep spice in life! 7. Intention filled spring or well water to cover ingredients if additional liquid is needed. While I’m sleeping and dreaming of New Year’s goodness, my beautiful Black Eyed Peas are slow cooking all night long on the “Low” setting. When I wake up, I switch my slow cooker to “Keep Warm” and have a little taste to check on my seasoning. By the time my family arrives, slowly but surely on New Year’s Day, we’re ready to eat. Easy to make, absolutely delicious and filled with Blessings! Enjoy ♥️ . . . #voodooauthentica #voodooshop #newyearseve #newyearstradition

🇬🇧 We went on a tour about voodoo in New Orleans which ended at this shop. Something we learned from them, contrary to what some might think, is that it's not about harming others; it's a rich tradition and religion of blessings, protection, and celebration of those who have lived here before us. Today, on All Souls' Day, is a day to remember and celebrate the lives of ancestors with reverence and respect.

Happy Feast Day to Oshun! 💛🍯 👑🍯💛 Oshun, often likened with Our Lady of Charity, is the Orisha (African Spirit Force) of the river. Her day of the week is Thursday and Her number is 5. Her colors are yellow, green and coral, and Her favorite foods are honey, cinnamon, oranges and pumpkins. In New Orleans Voodoo, Oshun is called on for Her assistance in matters of love, romance, prosperity and sensuality. Her blessings encourage us to see the divine beauty in each of us, and to sweeten our lives with the pleasures of love and confidence. Representations of Oshun are often placed near the bedroom or dressing room of the home. Blessings, Y'all! ✨ www.voodooshop.com . . . . #voodooauthentica #voodooshop #frenchquarter #neworleans #neworleansvoodoo #oshun #orishas
New Orleans: Where you can check out a voodoo shop, walk past women twerking in the street to a marching band and visit the site of the Louisiana Purchase before lunch. I cannot wait to go back. (Also, the family of the guy dancing at The Gazebo Cafe got up and left him there and he didn’t care. He stayed until closing to dance with complete strangers. Love it.)
Workin’ on some Mojo Bath Shots for Love & Prosperity, and good Lord, it’s dreamy! Minted Vanilla Rose is scentin’ the air & I’m feelin’ very lovey & lucky today… this is set to be a powerful batch of salts!! 🛁 . . . . #voodooauthentica #voodooshop #bathsalts #frenchquarter

Today is the Feast Day of St. Martha the Dominator! 🐉🗡🕯 In New Orleans, St. Martha the Dominator represents empowerment and victory over adversaries. Often depicted as a fierce dragon-slaying figure, She is venerated for Her strength, courage, and ability to conquer challenges. We also associate St. Martha the Dominator with Mami Wata, a powerful & maternal water Spirit. Celebrated for Her beauty, protection & connections to aquatic realms, Mami Wata represents feminine power and Spiritual energy. With their shared qualities of strength, courage & determination, the blessings of St. Martha the Dominator and Mami Wata encourage and empower all who seek guidance - a reminder that the strength to overcome any obstacle lives within all of us. Blessings, Y'all!! ✨ . . . . #voodooauthentica #voodooshop #neworleansvoodoo #stmarthathedominator #stamarta #mamiwata
