"The weekly rituals in tribute to my ancestors and the warrior Orishas required that I stop and focus on my spiritual growth, setting aside, for those moments, other parts of my life."

THE NEW ORLEANS VOODOO TAROT | CELEBRATE LOA, ORISHA, LIFE…
The New Orleans Voodoo Tarot is practiced to celebrate and honor the West African Loa and Orishain great continuity of ache. This will be an introduction to my Voodoo Tarot Spiritual Readings and guidance to relatable tools in divination for clients. This Spiritual path has directed me toward a rich source of divine ancestry and to gain a better understanding of the Spiritual forces that always surround us.
One notable difference between the New Orleans Voodoo Tarot and traditional tarot is that the elemental force Earth is in no way categorized as being inferior to the other elements. Similar to the traditional tarot, the New Orleans Voodoo Tarot deck makes total use of the Tetragrammaton model and its four elemental attributes. The western elements of earth, air, fire, and water correspond to the four Nations or Voodoo traditions.
