One of the most auspicious locations not just in Vodou
But across various African Spiritual Cosmologies
A space of manifesting possibilities
A sacred space of intersection between realms for devotees
The domain of papa Legba
The divine messenger that traverses both realms; of spirit and the physical
Passing on instructions and guidance across dimensions
Keeper of As\u00e9; the Energy that brings forth manifestations<\/p>
Hence it is Legba who creates the way for our life journey
Each pattern in life, each experience we have, has not been without Legba\u2019s involvement
Present in each moment, present in each second
When we seek Legba, our life problems do not compound<\/p>
\u00a0Legba\u2019s domain is a point of intersection
A convergence of dimensions
A locus of Energetic convergence
A quadrant that encompasses the All
At the centre of the cross-roads I can see in all directions
I can see what beckons from the left
I can see what beckons from the right
I can see what beckons from behind
I can see what beckons from infront
It is the foci from which all is visible<\/p>
It is the core from which all can be perceived
It is the centre from which energies flows outward in an implosion of creation
Pretty much the Kongo-account of creation
The nucleus from which active forces expand to give rise to creation
So at the cross-roads we stand with the Creator
And with Legba as our guide and teacher, we manifest our \u2018God-given\u2019 powers<\/p>
The Cross Road
It asks of us
Where do you seek to go?
Where do you seek to travel?
Do you seek to go East?
Or do you seek to go West?
Or better yet North?
How about South?
Decisions, decisions, decisions
The worry becomes, which should it be?
It is the fear of making mistakes that gnaws at the mind
The fear of its adverse consequences cripples the mind
Paralyses the spirit, body and the urge to act<\/p>
Such can be the disorientating nature of making decisions alone
And why the Elders remind us that \u2018Two heads are better than one\u2019
And what better head can we consult than the one that sees in all directions?
That remains aware of all things and occurrences in all dimensions?
That holds the potentiality for Energetic creations?<\/p>
The same head whose domain is at the Cross-Roads
Papa Legba
The one who opens the gates
So walk to the Cross-Roads
Give offerings at the Cross-Road
Call out to Legba at the Cross-Road
