Palo Mayombe

I got here from your blog Heavens Within Earth; are you still active in the Golden Dawn or are you mostly a Palero now?

In palo mayombe when I was born they gave me a signature a papibemba and I don't know what to use it for, can you help me. From a learning tata

Nsala Malekum. I learned that my godfather did not perform rayamiento correctly and in fact had been using the so called Nkisi he gave me to control me and use my Ashe for his personal gain. How do I disconnect from his Rama?

Can you speak on what the term "horse" means?

Is it common to receive Elekes and warriors in Palo?

Is a 21 day cleanse period (no alcohol or mind altering substances) necessary after rayamiento? If yes, can you explain why?

Hi i am new to this tumblr app. How can I read all of your posts about Palo in this Tumblr app. Every time I click on the notes it shows me other things I just want to read the notes about Palo. Is there any way I can do this with this app?

Do you have your own book on Palo? I would like to learn more of our origins as paleros and about medicine the herbs we can use what they are for and when and how to use them. Sorry I know my Tata should be the one to teach me I mean no disrespect but I don't have the opportunity to go to plantes or be around my Padrino all the time and I would like to educate myself as much as I can so that when I cross over to Tata I am deserving of the title.

Nsala Malekum, I sat at my boveda with my muertos and read the cups of water while smoking cigar and drinking coffee. I kept seeing a lot of bubbles forming really quickly... could you please explain why that maybe? Also I saw a doll-face and have been thinking about tapping into building nkisi dolls... I think that was my muertos giving me confirmation to what I was already thinking. If so how do I go about building those dolls? Luz y Progreso!

do the spirits really turn their backs on gay people? i was told that but then i was also told (by the same person) that i have a path in palo so i don’t know what to do but i don’t wanna upset anything beyond my control

I was sorry to see that palomayombe's website is suspended (which sounds very ominous). Are you still available for questions? I am working on a book with my Tata (no secrets, and no DIY Palo) and I'd like to just chat with another Tata!

Long absence

HI I am 16 right now ,and I was wondering what age is needed to become initiated also if I can practice palo by myself without getting a rayamiento,Nganga, or any of that just firmas.
