  • Delve into the enigmatic world of Papa Legba, the gatekeeper spirit of Vodou, as we explore his role in spirituality, transformation, and the crossroads of life.
    Papa Legba is a lwa, or spirit, in Haitian Vodou, Dominican Vodou, Winti, and Louisiana Voodoo.
    He is the gatekeeper between the human world and the spirit world, and he must be petitioned before any other lwa can be approached. Papa Legba is also associated with crossroads, doorways, and transitions, and he is often seen as a trickster figure.

      Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed our video on Papa Legba. Be on the lookout for our next video on Lilith the mother of

      @@LisaDadher-uq2jc First and foremost, I have Haitian ancestry. Secondly I'm going to Haiti soon to be initiated. That's means I'm going to be a Hougan. Lastly I never said any about Loca, not dreads. Papa Legba is not a keeper of souls, period. Any real person in vodou know that papa Legba is not a lwa. Papa Legba is a modern umbrella term. Legba has many versions but none of them are papa Legba

    Voodoo is not an area, authentic Voodoo is within the peoples who are the great descendants of the Dahomean ancestors. It's not Louisiana Voodoo, it's our regional Black-American LaLwizyàna Kréolité ethnic group's Voodoo culture here in Louisiana.

      The video is titled PAPA LEGBA not BARON SEMEDI. Papa Legba is often associated with dreadlocks. He's a trickster spirit associated with crossroads and communication between the loa (spirits) and the human world. Would you like to know more about the distinct characteristics of Papa Legba and Baron Samedi?
