In this powerful episode, we pay tribute to Bossou, the fierce bull spirit of strength, protection, and raw ancestral force in Haitian Vodou. Known for his fiery presence and unstoppable energy, Bossou embodies the type of spiritual power that clears obstacles, guards communities, and fuels courage in moments when life demands resilience.
We explore Bossou’s origins, symbols, and sacred role, unpacking why he is revered as a warrior lwa of royal lineage and a source of unshakable grounding for practitioners.
Whether you’re curious about Vodou spirits, exploring African diasporic traditions, or seeking a deeper understanding of the lwas, this episode invites you to connect with Bossou’s unapologetic power and the lessons he brings about survival, strength, and sacred defense.
