LWA PETRO, KWA KWA. Served with the kwa kwa, these spirits are served throughout Haiti, in some of the hottest and rawest rite of Haiti. They are also fundamental in the Kanzo cycle. The ceremonies such as Bat Ge and Mere Paket are petro ceremonies that ensure that the initiates are strong, powerful and have strong pwen from which to work. They are the Spirits of immediate change, and they work extremely quickly when wanga or pwen are performed through their rites. The songs and dances are staccato, and when these Spirits come in possession they are unmistakeable. They are spirits of magic and chance, and spirits of the hottest of places, the crossroads, marshes, forests and cities. Be it Gran Bwa with his knowledge of all herbs and plants, or the Simbi who rule over magic of the water, Kalfou, the point through which all magic passes or Amminno who is one of the spirits of the Gad cycle, these spirits are profoundly powerful. They are also demanding. What you promise them you must give them, and if you dont they will exact their displeasure just as quickly as they brought what you desired. BILOLO!!!
