BARON SAMEDI 4 oz Loa of Resurrection and the Dead Voodoo Offering Loa Candles with Black Tourmaline and Tobacco - Voudon Ritual Supplies

BARON SAMEDI, Consort of Maman Brigitte, Loa of Life, Death, and Resurrection, Leader of the Gede

These candles have been crafted with the Baron in mind, boasting a unique blend of fragrances that include smoke, tobacco, vanilla, incense, and a hint of rum and cologne. The candles are elegantly presented in a black and gold 4 oz candle tin that features a Baron Samedi veve on the lid. They have also been adorned with black tourmaline crystals and a light sprinkling of hand-dried leaf tobacco, making them an exquisite addition to any altar space.

Baron Samedi, also known as Baron Saturday, Baron Samdi, Bawon Samedi, or Bawon Sanmdi, is a Loa in Haitian Vodou. He belongs to the family of Loa of the Dead, which includes Baron Cimetière, Baron La Croix, and Baron Criminel. He is the head of the Gede family of Loa and works alongside his brothers, Azagon Lacroix and Baron Piquant. Baron Samedi is married to Maman Brigitte, and together they act as guardians of history and heritage.

In Haitian Vodou, Baron Samedi is typically depicted wearing a black tailcoat, a top hat, dark glasses, and cotton plugs in his nostrils, resembling a corpse dressed for burial. He is known for his disruptive behavior, debauchery, and obscene humor. He has a particular fondness for tobacco and rum. Baron Samedi is also the Loa of resurrection and is often called upon for healing by those close to or approaching death. Only he can accept an individual into the realm of the dead.

Baron Samedi spends most of his time in the invisible realm of Vodou spirits. He is notorious for his outrageous behavior, continuously swearing and making filthy jokes to other souls. Despite being married to Maman Brigitte, he often chases after mortal women. He loves smoking and drinking and is rarely seen without a cigar in his mouth or a glass of rum in his bony fingers. Baron Samedi can usually be found at the crossroads between the worlds of death and the living. When someone dies, he digs their grave and greets their soul after they have been buried, leading them to the underworld.

Baron Samedi is the leader of the Gede, a family of Loa with particular connections to ancestor worship, magic, and death. These lesser spirits are dressed similarly to Baron Samedi and are as rude and crude as him but not nearly as charming. They assist in carrying the dead to the underworld.
