Papa Legba Whoopin’ Wand Pendant

Papa Legba Whoopin’ Wand Pendant

Papa Legba Whoopin Wand PendantProduct name: Papa Legba Whoopin Wand Pendant
Price: $15.00

This is a small (around 7 cm.) version of the whoopin’ stick that Papa Legba (also known as Eshu, Exu, or Elegua) uses to keep us mortals in line.  Wearing it or keeping this with you helps to remind you of what’s important in life, and to not get a big head when good things happen.  It also helps to give you a nudge in the right direction when you need to make important decisions.

You can wear it at your neck or beltloop, or use it as a small ceremonial wand when you’re calling Papa Legba.

Product name: Papa Legba Protection Gris-gris
Price: $12.50

This is one of our most popular small items.  It’s very inexpensive, and you get a big shipping discount for ordering more than one.  They’re each hand made, and you have a choice of the standard or mini-bocchio (gris gris) version.  The difference is that the bocchio version is packed with Elegua friendly items and charged up with energy during our Friday meeting.  Three years after receiving it, you should bury it at a crossroads, and hopefully get another.

This is a nice pendant, but it can also be used as a pendulum or a door hanger or an ornament for your rear view mirror in your car.  Papa Legba’s protection face in red and black is also a symbol of true gender equality and balance, and men’s rights.  Many Gnostic Christian and Pagan men’s rights advocates and promoters of true feminine strength have begun to wear Elegua necklaces to signify their parting from both the mainstream and overly self defeating conservative beliefs.  This is because of the many patakis (legends and parables) in which Elegua tests men’s manhood and women’s womanhood.  When there are moral gray areas, Elegua makes things clear.

This is a constant item, and can be custom made if you prefer a different design.  Some examples are making it all brown or silver gray, or black and white.
