Erzulie Freda - The loa of love in the voodoo religion

Erzulie the spirit of love & beauty wears three wedding rings, her symbol is a heart & her colours are pink, blue, white and gold.


Erzulie Fréda Dahomey, the Rada aspect of Erzulie, is the Haitian African spirit of love, beauty, jewelry, dancing, luxury, and flowers.


Coquettish and very fond of beauty and finery, Erzulie Freda is femininity and compassion embodied, yet she also has a darker side;


During ritual possession, she may enter the body of either a man or a woman. She enjoys the game of flirtation and seduces people.


Erzulie Freda is conceived of as never able to attain her heart's most fervent desire. For this reason she always leaves a service in tears.
