Eshu 2011 eleke

Short on spending money this year?  Remember, we’re a community, not just a store.  Check our festival schedule, and send us your requests to bring up during our community offerings and ceremonies.  It is especially important that if you have friends or relatives in combat or sensitive positions, you let us know by Friday night’s Warrior ceremony.

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.

Legba Maraca Voodoo Doll Pin

Product name: Papa Legba Cat’s Eye Pin
SOLD

This pin was made in reverence to Papa Legba (also known as Elegua, Eshu, and Exu), the guardian of doorways and barriers, and the gatekeeper between the physical and spiritual realms.

It is made in combination maraca and bocchio (or gris gris) style, so it rattles when you shake it.  It can be shaken any time you want to call the energy of Papa Legba.  As a pin, you can wear it, use it for your dolls, or stick it someplace nearby when you need a boost or some charisma.
