In today’s episode, I will be sharing what I have learned about Madame Marie Laveau. Madame Laveau has such a presence in our collective consciousness that even those who know very little about the mystical arts know her name. This exploration has taken me back into my studies on voodoo, and brought to light some of the truths about this powerful woman, and her spiritual practice, that can only be found if you dive below the surface of the head lines.
