Anne-Marie opens her arms while possessed by 'Gede' during the celebration of All Saints' Day at the municipal cemetery of Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Saturday, Nov. 1, 2003. Haitians celebrate the Catholic All Saints' Day Nov. 1, and festivities continue in cemeteries through Nov. 2, the Day of the Dead. Saturday is also New Year's Day in the Vodou calendar in Haiti. Practitioners visit the tombstones of relatives and pay their respects to Baron Samedi, the god of the dead, and to his lascivious, sardonic offspring, Gede. (AP Photo/Andres Leighton)

The pictures were great. I heard stories before about what the females do with the pepper and etc.  I also heard that they go out that night cursing.

Well, that wasn't the answer I was so anxious to read. Sounded quite venomous.  I wasn't looking for a "WIN" and I wasn't dis'ing I stated my opinion that pouring HOT pepper booze down my pants didn't at all look inviting and you turned into religion bashing. I don't agree with pediphelia to set the record strait.

 

( are you yelling at me?)

amber amber..sweet amber.....this is what Ghede is all about....

having fun in a krazy lascivious manner.............

To answer you seriously..no no vinegar for Kreyolbwa......only a few people go to that extreme.  There is a muslim ritual where the men literally whip their bare chest until it bleeds in submission to I don't know what....think of the few hot pepper users in Ghede in the same way........religious fever too hot to handle..lol...lol

Relax everyone.....this is Ghede..... its the fun part of Vaudou.

Why do they do they curse and do all kinds of weird stuff when possessed by ghede? Well, i've read on a site of a manbo(vodou priestess) that the Ghedes, who happen to be people who have died, know that because they are dead can nothing happen to them anymore.  After they have passed, there is no reason to be polite, so when they possess someone, they curse. It is there way of saying hahaha now that i'm not alive I can relax.

It is not easy being Haitian. It is not easy liking where I come from.
