THE DIVINE VOODOO GODDESS

There is an important group of female lwa in Vodou, whose first name is Erzulie. Erzulie Freda is a wealthy white woman, a promiscuous love goddess who moves in an atmosphere of perfume and luxury. Erzulie Dantor is a black woman who is represented pictorially with lithographs of the Roman Catholic "Saint Barbara Africana". Her TRibal scars are evident on her cheek. She is heterosexual in the sense that she has a child, but she is also the paTRon lwa of lesbian women. In addition she is considered to be the wife of two lwa, Ti-Jean PeTRo and the very important magical lwa Simbi Makaya. When she appears at a ceremony through the mechanism of possession, she speaks a stammering monosyllable, "ke-ke-ke-ke-ke!" She likes knives, is much feared, and is considered the protector of both newly consecrated Houngans and Mambos, and of women who are experiencing domestic violence.
