I was raised in West Africa, but I'm American. Do not be deceive by this deities ! or gods. They originated from Africa. Slaves had brought it these deities when they were sold. Believe me, It's occult, conniving, delirious and delusive. It will ruin your life should you follow it. I know numerous people who did, back in Africa there is nothing to write home about there present life.

This is from someone named: Patrick Bellegarde-Smith
"When I have been possessed by a deity, I don’t remember anything that happens. Sometimes the person possessed speaks out in public to others, giving them messages from the deity. Haitian deities in the Vodoun tradition are very approachable in the rituals. You can hug them and kiss them, they will speak to you. The Brazilian deities in Candomble don’t speak publicly, tending to relay their message through priests. In the African American Christian tradition, worshipers who fall into religious trances are quickly revived."
