Browsing through today's newspaper,I saw an article about an indonesian maid casting voodoo spells on her employer and family in Malaysia.I was just wondering if that maid was using the appropriate tools and voodoo spell 'ingredients' though because it was stated in the papers that she added urine,'private'(who knows which private part?) hair...eg...... into the food which her employer and family eats EVERYDAY.Yucks!
Fancy eating those stuffs everyday!Maybe that maid used blood from her monthly periods too...arghh!

Speaking of Voodoo,Voodoo is a derivative of the world’s oldest known religions which have been around in Africa since the beginning of human civilization. Some conservative estimates these civilizations and religions to be over 10 000 years old.The word "voodoo" comes from the West African word "vodun," meaning spirit.

Within the voodoo society, there are no accidents. Practitioners believe that nothing and no event has a life of its own. That is why "vous deux", you two, you too. The universe is all one. Each thing affects something else. Scientists know that. Nature knows it. Many spiritualists agree that we are not separate, we all serve as parts of One. So, in essence, what you do unto another, you do unto you, because you ARE the other. Voo doo. View you. We are mirrors of each others souls(meaning if you harm others,you are actually harming yourself). God is manifest through the spirits of ancestors who can bring good or harm and must be honored in ceremonies. There is a sacred cycle between the living and the dead. Believers ask for their misery to end. Rituals include prayers, drumming, dancing, singing and animal sacrifice.

Unfortunately, the public’s perception of voodoo rites and rituals seems often to point to the evil or malicious side of things. There are healing spells, nature spells, love spells, purification spells, joyous celebration spells. Spirits may be invoked to bring harmony and peace, birth and rebirth, increased abundance of luck, material happiness, renewed health.The fact is, for those who believe it, voodoo is powerful. It is also empowering to the person who practices it.

Despite Voodoo's noble status as one of the worlds oldest religions, it has been typically characterized as barbaric, primitive, sexually licentious practice based on superstition and spectacle.The strength that the Africans in Haiti gained from their religion was so strong and powerful, that they were able to survive the cruel persecution of the French rulers against Voodoo. It was in the midst of this struggle that the revolution was conspired. The Voodoo priests consulted their oracle and learned how the political battle would have to be fought in order for them to be victorious. The revolution exploded in 1791 with a Petr— ritual and continued until 1804 when the Haitians finally won independence. Today the system of Voodoo reflects its history. We can see the African ethnic mixture in the names of different rites and in the pantheon of Gods or Loas, which is composed of deities from all parts of Africa.



This is for the annoying co-worker who always act like a childish little girl although she's already married with 2 grown up kids...

Oh,i nearly forgot what i've wrote earlier,retribution.I really shouldn't be so bad,if not,it would return to me.Buddha teaches me that too.So,i am going to be nice then... ...



See?I am such a good girl.



It's such coincident that the Las Vegas drama shown at 2am featured a pretty actress holding 2 voodoo dolls and piercing them with pins which hurted the other 2 male actors.Following that,at 3am,there's the monday late night movie on channel 5 that featured Africans practising voodoo and bla,bla,bla...
Anyway,talking about voodoo,there was once a very famous and powerful lady who practised voodoo.She was Marie Laveau.

Believed to be born in New Orleans in 1794 and died in New Orleans on June 15th, 1881. A free woman of color as well as a Quadroon (African, Indian, French and Spanish), she became the most famous and powerful Voodoo Queen in the world, so powerful that she acclaimed herself the Pope of Voodoo in the 1830s. She was respected and feared by thousands including the Catholic Church. A devout catholic, going to mass each day, she got permission to hold rituals behind St. Louis Cathedral. Starting out as a hairdresser and later as a selfless nurse, Marie Laveau became the first commercial Voodoo Queen. She had fifteen children by her second husband, one of which (Marie Philomene Laveau Glapion) walked in her footsteps and became almost as powerful as her mother.

The tomb of Marie Laveau.
