Moving Forward On My Spiritual Journey.
When I was a child I was thoroughly fascinated by my limited exposure to Vodun/Vodou/Voodoo/Hoodoo. There were three relevant books on the subject in the local library. I rented them over and over. I was drawn to Vodou because I thought it could help me make sense out of many strange things I saw. Later as an independent 14 year old I made my first trip to a botanica. But with all the new age stuff my spiritual path went in a different direction. Years later I learned my g-grandmother was a healer who travel to do healing for the poor and those no allowed in the hospitals. She was especially sought out for burns/wounds and 'talking the fire out of people'. As she was on her death bed strong men raised her bed into the air and placed large stones on the floor and placed the bed on the stones. For years I asked africans if they were familiar with such a ritual/process. Then I asked a coworker from a Haitian Vodou family and they explained it to me. For quite a while I thought my ggm was a practitioner. But she at least may have had someone do that one ritual or job for her.
I just shared the backstory of how Vodou may have slightly brushed against my life. I am interested in getting a reading and seeing what unfolds. There is a pressing issued I would like information on concerning decisions I have to make. Vodou is practically nonexistent here. One house is 4 hours away. I am 7 hours away from New Orleans.
How do I move forward? I prefer in person. I am AA male. Should I look for a particular lineage? Not sure what to do. I am really interested in Haitian Vodou. Can you help me.
