text: I practice Vodou.  It is a religion that focuses on helping, healing, the community, and family.  To use lwa you must know how to petition them.  There are no spells in Vodou.  There is working with the spirits, the lwa.  We ask the lwa to help us.  We give them offerings and they in turn help us with what we need.  \n\nBaron Samedi is the lwa of the cemetery.  He is the one to call is someone is very sick or dieing.  This is because he controls life and death.  If you need to ask for help from the lwa you need to speak with a Mambo or Hougan, they are the priests of the religion.  They can petition the lwa for you.  There is always a charge for the service though.  Some Mambos will allow you to make amends some other way if you can not pay.\n\nYou can also try to use wiccan or hoodoo spells.  I will look through my books and email one to you.  I would prefer not to post on this.
