Hey everyone! Hope this is allowed! If not delete immediately @theconjurehoodoo
Just giving more tips on if you're called by Papa Legba. Not only can papa open doors, he can also be used to close them.
Offerings: straw hat, cane, candies(red candies best). Red palm oil on altar(anoint your temple upon calling!) keys, toys, cigars and cigar pipes! Rum(Barbancourt rhum-hard to come across, it's really sold in Ayiti(Haiti) but great if you come across! If not Gin will do! Coffee of course(his favorite brand is Cafe Bustelo) sweet kernel popcorn, red beans and rice and 3 Pennie's of course!
Pennies shall be cleaned and shiny. You can clean them with vinegar!
If you want to open doors I suggest serving sweet coffee, to close doors unsweet!
If you need doors closed to open doors for you serve both!
When calling on this Lwa, I have a special tool from Haiti that we shake when calling upon him I keep on my altar, if not, giggle the sound of keys on a chain! Enter a meditative state while calling Papa, Papa, Papa, Papa, Legba, Legba, Legba, Legba....until you can feel his energy rising! You can write your petition but like Lala said, it's best to talk with spirit!
Leaving your offerings at the crossroads....you should walk all four corners, hitting all curbs, while asking him to open the gates, or closing the gates...whichever purpose you are asking to be served and leave and don't look back! Spice it up, take some of the rum or liquor you gave him if he hadn't already drunk it all up, use some from the bottle! Gargle in your mouth and spit-spray it on the Pennys you leave at the crossroads!
Also wear his colors when you come to him! I wear them on his day and to the crossroads. I actually have a dress wearing his veve! Most ppl wouldn't recommend this! However still wearing his colors on his day can magnetize this work!
I also have his picture on my altar...that is framed with little doors for when I want to open or close them!
Thx u
