Our Kouzen Group Lamp Table for Service and Community
I wanted to share our Group Lamp altar/table that we prepared for service. Every part of it was placed with intention — the colors, the foods, the candles, the veves and cloths, the tools, the offerings, and the spirits we are honoring through community and prayer.
We included fresh fruits and vegetables, breads and cakes, flowers, drinks, candles, fabrics, and items connected to the lwa and to the people gathered around this work. The table reflects both reverence and hospitality: feeding the spirits, feeding the community, and creating space for prayer, protection, and connection.
I especially love how alive this setup feels with all the color and movement — the blue cloths, bandanas, straw work, handmade pieces, and the mixture of sacred and everyday items together in one space. To me, that balance is part of the beauty of Vodou: spirit and daily life are not separated.
Respect to all who serve with sincerity. Bondye beni nou. 🕯️🇭🇹
