Commission of the Congo. You can't go wrongo with the Congo.

The Temple's Botanica! More coming soon!

In Puerto Rican/Voudou or Sanse, the Indio Commission is the waters by which the Cosmic Loa, Gran Simbi Rey del Aqua, also known as the Taino Skyfather, Yocahu, rains down his divine influence over the tradition. So prevalent within Puerto-Rican Spiritism, the Indio commission has within it a near stand-alone and separate tradition of Indio spirituals. However, as watery as Sanse is, Puerto Rican Voudo is not without its fire. 

Enter the Commission of the Congo spirits. 

The Congo spirits are the dynamic and oppositional force to the Indios. Rather than calm and still, the Congos are aggressive and often restless spirits, eager to work and prove their strength and well-deserved reputation. The Commission of the Congos is a large and diverse one. A giant spiritual court consisting of warriors, hunters, sorcerers-witch doctors, Kings, Queens, slaves, and herbalists. Many Congo spirits come through other courts such as the Slaves, Madamas and Madamos, and the Court of the Shamans. 

The Congo spirits are famous for their formidability, courage, and tenacity. The spiritual equivalent of Pitbulls. If there was a"left" hand path of Sanse or Puerto Rican Voudo (there isn't, but "if" there was), the Congos would be that path. The Court of the Indios are not to be trifled with, but there is something a wee-bit spicier, and the sting a little bit sharper when the Congos perform their labors.  

When you look at a traditional Puerto Rican Voudo altar, you will see Indios on the floor to the right of the table, and on the left side, Congos on the ground. These two mighty commissions act as the stabilizing pillars of Sanse, balancing and activating each other. The water and the fire, creating steam and steam the active agent for all the spirits to interact. The Congos make sure the Indios don't get too complacent, and Indios ensure the Congos don't just run wild.

Another interesting thing to consider is that Sanse is a Loa driven tradition, not Orisha. Most of the New World and African Diasporic slaves were from Western Africa. The mixing of Congo and Dahomey spiritualities gave birth to Voudo and Haitian Voudou being the lineage from which the Petro Loa came to earth. The Petro Loa are served through Congo means and with Congo inspired songs and drumbeats.

The inclusion of the Congo Commission and its placement within Puerto Rican Voudo is no mistake and undoubtedly no coincidence. Sanse does not deal specifically with the Petro Loa like Haitian or Dominican Voudo does and most definitely not as the secret societies of Haiti such as Makaya, Zobop, Loupgarou, or Bizango do. Still, their influence can be brought down by a Chief Loa and their flavor detected in the Congo Commission.  

Without the Congo court, Sanse would belong to the Orisha via the Court of the Africanos, and be more similar to Afro/Brazilian spiritists faiths such as Umbanda or Candomble. 

The Congos are breakers of black magic and curses par-excellence. They lift hexes and resolve causes with ease. Watching them defeat evil is like observing a big scary scorpion be unmercifully swarmed and devoured by thousands of Army ants. Enemies can throw their worst. It matters not. The Congo spirits overwhelm whatever is sent, then follow its trail back to whoever sent it. 

As a priest or Tata of Palo Mayombe, any Mayombe ceremony I preform is a Congo spiritism session in the purest sense. However, even those who are not initiated into Mayombe can still perform very effective Congo spiritualist sessions through Sanse, or Puerto Rican Voudou. After Baptism, one could receive a Cauldero Espiritual or Spiritual Cauldron. The Cauldero Espiritual is a bloodless version of the N'ganga or Prenda used in Palo Mayombe. A strong focal point for the Congo spirits and the counterweight to the Indio Pot. 

Similar to how I conduct weekly Indio Cordons, I do the same with Congo spiritist sessions and for the exact same reasons. I believe the cleansing and tempering with hot and cold energies, water (Indio), and fire (Congo) make me a stronger medium, priest, warrior, man, and ultimately human. This frequent application of alchemical temperance makes it damn near impossible to hurt me spiritually. I'll admit, I enjoy hearing about the continual mishaps and calamities which befall my enemies. In fact, ruination has become so commonplace for a few of my enemies I can now tell which is an Indio or a Congo version of returning their evil upon them.  

All they need to do it stop coming at me.  

The Court of the Congo spirits is served with red and black. They enjoy Tobacco, water, spiced rum, and okra. They really like hit black coffee with a little dark rum and three red chili peppers in it. 

Offer the Prayer to the Congo Spirit and start drumming a congo beat or turn on some Congo drum music. The Congo speak through the earth and fire, the flowing of the blood and the dripping of sweat. Rhythmically sway and use your hands and fingers to play different beats on your body (you are a drum... a profound mystery there). Through movement and heat, the Congo interface.

Prayer to the Congo Spirit

Oh Glorious Congo Spirit, for your virtues, you have entered the Kingdom of Heaven. You have obtained the Holy Blessings of God. You are a leader of the heavenly commission of spirits, and you are surrounded by Angels.

I an admirer of your strength and courage, knowledge, and wisdom, ask in the name of the Father, Mother, Son, and Holy Spirit that you fill my body with your powers and help me in separating the evil thoughts my enemies send towards me.

Free me Oh Congo from the snare of the Devil, and the embrace of his demons. Vanish from me all evil spirits and bind their hands and feet, may they never reach me.

Oh, Glorious Congo, With you at my side, I shall defeat my enemies, and with your strength, I shall overcome all my obstacles. With your sublime powers that have been given to you by God, I ask that you help me with my daily needs.

Guard my home against envy, jealousy, and bad faith, and free me of all negative influences. I light this candle in your honor and ask that you illuminate my path. Amen.

Another prayer, lesser-known, but quite common in my temple, is the Prayer to the Black Christ. The world Christ mysteries have remained largely secret and little by little I will reveal what I can. However, any people who suffered have their own redeemers. These redeemers will hear the prayers of anyone and seek to help and give protection and elevation. The people of the Congo are no different. Speak this prayer too.

Prayer to the Black Christ Congo Spirit

Oh Divine redeemer from the Congo,

Oh Divine redeemer from the Congo,

Oh Divine redeemer from the Congo,

You who have suffered every ignominy,

I beg of you not to allow the same to occur to me, oh friend.

May my mate remain true. May my belief not be threatened,

May you guide my every step,

May all bad things stay away, and all good people come my way.

Grant me luck in all my endeavors.

Peace at work and in the street,

and keep my family on the straight path.

The Sanse practiced at my Temple is advanced, becoming better and more refined. My Temple and I will continue to revere the Commission of Congo spirits, developing and progressing spiritually while offering prayers for the advancement of everyone else.

No Agenda? CPS is Government sponsored Kidnapping. How the hell are other occultists not seeing this?!

Some time ago, a couple of highly effeminate males decided they would spread a lie suggesting I had broken my agreements with the Palo house for which I am a priest or Tata of Palo Mayombe. This embarrassing and appalling level of cowardice was born out of their deep-rooted fear and jealousy of me. One of them attempted to tell others there was no such thing as the "Illuminati" or "Anglo-Saxon" conspiracy. That no criminal organization in the Government was stealing children for human trafficking and that I was a liar, and no Global pedophile ring existed.  I had been talking about this and organization occult resistance and activism against this since 2009. I named names and pointed to the Clintons and even Jeffrey Epstein a decade before what is public knowledge now(this is demonstratable). How foolish that that clown looks, and it makes me chuckle every time I think of it.

The following video was sent to me by someone deeply concerned about what is happening with CPS or Child Protective Services. She quoted me from something I wrote years ago that was repeated verbatim in the video, "CPS is Government-sponsored kidnapping." The video makes my fucking blood boil, and I mean FUCKING BOIL!!!!!! She asked me a very pointed question, "how is it your spirits tell you about this, but not other priests and priestess?", and in truth, sadly, I cannot fully answer that. Maybe it is not their work in the world to confront global evil, and that is ok, we all have our great work. However, in this particular case, one of these two douchey fools actually told people the Loa told him there was absolutely NOTHING like what I was talking about going on. Well, and I will speak from what I know of this person and ONLY this person in particular when you don't have a spine, and your sack is as empty as his, there is no connection to the Loa, to begin with. So the only thing he is talking to is idiotic delusions and imaginary friends. He looks like Pedophile and NAMBLA member...so I wonder.

I am developing a longterm work to begin combating the sickness which has infected CPS, and I will let everyone know what I plan to do soon. For now, here is the video.

These fuckers NEED to burn. I am becoming less and less tolerant of idiots. So let it be known. You get in my way, or you attempt to sabotage my work, I will consider you part of the problem. Ask David Rockefeller and George H Bush how being part of the problem ultimately ended for them.

Dog will hunt.

This is a strange turn of events. I was sent links to four online metaphysical shops this last weekend operated by individuals all either claiming some sort of relationship with me, or straight-up copying and pasting content from my old online shop to add to theirs. They thought I'd never notice. I did swear off running an online shop after all the attempts at sabotage by jealous idiots who...for some reason...are no longer around either. I wonder what that might be about. Well...dog will hunt.

Love me or hate me, my content and my style is 100% me and is in no way duplicatable. People can imitate and do impressions, sometimes even really good ones, but duplicate? Never. I am one of a kind who has unquestionably changed the face of occultism forever and I am willing to help you find your own one of a kind nature to do the same. Truly powerful people are not afraid to show others how to be strong also. My rivals do not even know what strength except for when I've let them have a taste of it with the back of my hand.

In response, I have relaunched my storefront.

Anima Sola... it is best you don't...but since you are going too anyway...

Anima Sola

La Santisima Muerte, Saint Cyprian, La Madama, Black Hawk, Saint Expedite, and now introducing the newest flavor of the month for the cult of wanna-be sorcerers (CWS)...Anima Sola.  Maybe, just maybe, Anima Sola will give CWS what sever lack of dedication, zero practice and bewildering apprehension towards authentic initiation has thus far kept out of their reach...authority and credibility. And if not (a definite not) rest assured their will be (there WILL be) a new saint or spirit's mystery to exploit and tarnish.

Just like La Madama, Anima Sola comprises a vast legion of spirits. There is not an Anima Sola but an untold mass of millions and millions of dead who are Anima Solas. As stated Anima Sola are the spirits of earthbound (but more earthbound than earthbound) dead who are, because of a myriad of reasons, alone or lost and or trapped in the earth plane. Anima Sola suffer significant torrents, as such they are distressed and desperate...which means they are very dangerous.

Similar to how a drowning man can inadvertently pull his would be rescuers under alongside with him, Anima Solas can very easily become disastrous to those trying to offer them "light and progress", no matter what the intention is behind the act of kindness. Let that be a lesson to those sadly afflicted with the idiocy of the new-age... love and light does NOT inherently protect you from anything...never has and never will.

So what is the reason for attracting the attention of the Anima Solas?

This is largely answered by both your spiritual tradition and intentions.

From the perspective of Espiritismo-Spiritism (Scientific-Kardecian, Criollo and even Umbanda, Maria Lionza and to some degree Palo and Kimbanda) it is the oath and duty of priest or priestess to offer light and progress to the dead. It is the will of God, that all "his" children/creations eventually attain their highest potential. It is rewarding spiritual work as many times the dead you elevate offer help in return and will ask higher level spirits to also give you their blessing. In the Espiritismo-Spiritism Maria LIonza, and Umbanda traditions this progression is offered freely with no expectation of help in return (however its nice when the kindness is paid back and it usually is). In traditions like Palo Mayombe and Kimbanda pacts and bargains can be struck to ensure that aid is secured by the dead the Tata or Yaya (priest or priestess) offers light and progress too.

The initiated priest or priestess of those aforementioned traditions have been given the license and authority by very powerful high level spirits to safely work with the dead. But, even with that same license and authority, we priests and priestess still handle the Anima Solas with special gloves. If earthbound dead are seen as "hot" then Anima Solas are typically "lava hot". Individuals who are not initiated drawing the attention of the Anima Sola is generally egregiously stupid. All anyone needs to do is research the deteriorating mental health, and increase of domestic abuse and murder/suicides among so-called paranormal researchers...and  they are not dealing with Anima Solas... but earthbound dead.

From a black magic perspective, if the earthbound dead are known to work quickly (because of their close proximity to the material plane) then the Anima Sola work just that much faster. Also... where earthbound dead can often want specific things in return for their aid, and may or may not be willing to do the work you want it to preform (often for moral reasons) the Anima Sola are extremely desperate and willing work for just candle light and water. Also the desperation of the Anima Sola means they are willing to do anything to get that light and water. Imagine a man being slowly broken on a rack for hours upon hours. The pain caused by having his body pulled apart is also pulling apart his sanity. He can become so distressed and desperate that he would be willing to do or say anything to make the torture stop.

Anima Sola in this way are used as the "intranquil spirits" to dominate, control and destroy.

Light and water act as a reprieve to an Anima Sola's torment, and thus the Anima Sola becomes very dependent on them. A priest/ess or sorcerer using the Anima Sola for evil or questionable purposes is not elevating the Anima Sola out of their torment, only staving it off for a time, and keeping the Anima Sola in it's "hell" because in order to get the light and water it must do evil or at the very least questionable things. The sorcerer and the enslaved Anima Sola enter into a strange relationship. The Anima Sola wants the light and water that the sorcerer offers, but is kept imprisoned in its own hell by the acts it must do it order to get the light and water. The sorcerer, sooner than latter, becomes the target of the Anima Sola, and because Anima Sola is legion, he or she (unless extremely both powerful and knowledgeable) is now oppressed by many exceedingly angry vengeful dead to give them light and water, and now whatever else they want (generally vices like cigars, alcohol, drugs and porn...but also blood) with no aid in return, simply to alleviate the oppression...for a time.

A lay person, the internet trained spiritualist, the new-ager, is many, many more times than not, simply unable to handle the aggressive and desperate nature of the Anima Sola. These well meaning but misguided people, whether they are trying to elevate the dead or exploit them, will be quickly overrun and turned into a slave of the Anima Sola.

Because the Anima Sola will soon (assuming they are not already... I avoid YouTube like a plague of stupidity that is also somehow infected with AIDS... so I would not know) be the topic of numerous YouTube videos made by morons... I will detail the ONLY safe way to help the Anima Sola and "maybe", hopefully receive their grace and blessing for your good works.

First NO images! NONE. There is an iconic lithograph of a woman, often in chains, and surrounded by flames. This image is used by initiated priests and priestess, of which many of you are probably not, and this lithograph becomes a focal point... you are not ready to have this type pf energy "pool" and condense in your working/living space.

You are to offer the Anima Sola these three things and these three things ONLY:

1. A glass of COLD water.
2. A single WHITE candle.
3. Prayer.

"Hear mortal men, the cries of the imprisoned soul, alone and abandoned in a dark prison. Anima Sola, soul of peace and war. Soul of sea and of land. I desire that all that I have lost be returned.

Anima Sola, you who are alone and abandoned, I accompany you in your grief.

I take pity upon you.For I know of the grief and suffering you must endure within your harsh and long imprisonment. I offer you this prayer and glass of water because I desire to lessen your pain and quench your thirst. Sad Soul, Lonely Soul, no one calls you, But I call you. No one looks for you, but I seek you out. 

No one loves you, but I adore you. No one remembers you, but I keep you in my heart. I offer you this lit candle so that you may find your way into the light. In this moment I offer to you my meritorious labour, and all that I have suffered, suffer and will suffer in this life, even though it can never compare to yours. I humbly pray that you finish paying for your mortal sins of the flesh so that you may find the grace of God, and be lifted from your imprisonment, With your grace you shall be my benefactor."

You will do this only ONE time a week. You will make NO promises and you will NOT ask for anything specific.

Place a glass of COLD water on the ground or on a table with NO other religious symbols other than maybe a cross (One of the OLDEST religious symbols and not owned by any single religion... it is a symbol for among the highest understanding of "God", or the Highest of the High).

Place a WHITE candle next to the glass of water.

1. Make the sign of the Kabbalistic cross over your body (forehead, navel, right shoulder, and left shoulder).

2. Light the WHITE candle (which should not be a seven day candle but a 3-6 hour candle).

3. Offer the following prayer.


Now be done for the rest of the week. DO NOT sit in front of the candle and water and meditate on the Anima Sola. DO NOT sit and talk to the Anima Sola, DO NOT tell them your troubles or make specific requests of them. You are offering this act as an act of good will. You are saying you want what you have lost to be returned to you and that they should be your benefactor, but that is it. It will be up to the Anima Sola to decide to help you, and/or you will receive the blessing of higher level beings for giving the Anima Sola elevation.

If after a FULL year of honoring the Anima Sola is this EXACT way and you want to do more... you may contact me and we will discuss what more you can safely do in order to deepen your practice.

Palo Mayombe GENERAL tooth and mouth care for the uninsured and or until payday.

Not too long ago I posted N'gurunfinda's cue for a man's abscessed tooth.

Toothaches i.e infections are awfully painful and can, overtime, become more threatening than just the constant pain. The infection can spread, and cause not only pain throughout the entire line of teeth on that side of the mouth, but even reach the sinuses.

It can get really bad.

I am of course NOT a doctor, nor a dentist. So, please consult one of either for all your tooth care needs.

That being said, as a spirit wellness coach... (yeah... that) I can relay an experiment that yielded seemingly beneficial results.

I was contacted by someone who read the previous blog about N'gurufinda's remedy for that particular man's accessed tooth (which by the way, he says, is better and does not at all bother him.... he does however continue with the coconut pulling a few times a week).

I was whispered too by my Nfumbe that, while effective, that specific recipe and method is not suited for everyone.

This person had an abscessed tooth and canker sores in the mouth as well.

They had very little money, and no insurance.

A dentist had told her she could come in for greatly reduced in price work, but that was scheduled for three weeks out.

She could not sleep and her whole life was suffering.

I went back to my Nfumbe, and in trance mediumship, this recipe came down:

Half cup of Coconut oil
5 drops of Tea Tree oil
5 drops of Clove oil
5 drops of lavender oil

Alternatively if you cannot afford or have access to all those oils, Tea Tree oil and cheap olive oil is still effective.

Half cup Olive oil -or- Coconut oil- if possible.
10 drops Tea Tree oil

Mix all the ingredients thoroughly.

Take as much of the mixture in your mouth as you can comfortably handle.

Swish the mixture in your mouth in a slow methodical fashion for 10-15 minutes. Maybe 20 minutes if the pain has been very bad, and do so three times a day...especially right before bed so you can sleep.

Do not swallow.

After your chosen time, spit out the mixture in the trash or outside.

Risen your mouth with warm water.

This practice seems to greatly reduce or even eliminate the pain, stave off or even kill the infection, and allow life to become normal again.

Still of course see a dentist when you can, and or when you can afford to do so... but until then... in my personal experience and from the experience of another, this will help you until then.

-Papa Crocodile, or Doc Croc as I was recently called.

Ngurunfinda's toothache relief paste. Yambaka the Malongo Sorcerer.

Recently while I was conducting a large Palo rite, my Nfumbe (a spirit of the dead all priests and priestess of Palo Mayombe pact with) got really loud in my ear about someone in my congregation who was suffering from an agonizing toothache. 

My Nfumbe even let me feel, for a couple seconds, what this person was experiencing. 

The upper right, most back molar.... the sudden searing sharpness took my breath away. 

I could feel myself begin to fade into a light trance, and a wild power step into the forefront of my consciousness.

It was the fierce Mpungo, Ngurunfinda, or Yambaka, sometimes called Bad Face when he is serving up "bad medicine" or poison. 

He is the father of the land, keeper of all the secrets of nature.

He is the warrior branch of the mighty nature spirit Osayin into Palo Mayombe.

A formidable sorcerer, he owns all the herbs, and minerals, and anything which keeps us alive, including food, shelter and money.

I stopped the proceedings and asked a loud, "who among my children is suffering from a toothache that has made it impossible for them to sleep!?" 

A man from the back of the semi-circle of people around me admitted it was him, although stunned I knew this and he was a little reluctant to approach me (latter I was told my facial features had changed slightly, as well as both my mannerisms and movements become short and quick). 

I pointed to the tooth which was causing him so much pain.

He nodded silently.

"Coconut oil!!!!", I screamed. 

My house scrambled to fetch a jar.

"Cloves!", I screamed again. 

My house produced essential Clove Oil. 

"Lavender" , I screamed.

My house produced essential Lavender Oil.

The spirit of Ngurunfinda guided my hands as I quickly added nine drops of Clove Oil, and six drops of Lavender Oil to about a cup of Coconut Oil. I stirred in thoroughly as I sang magical songs of Malongo, secret to my rama of Palo Mayombe.  

I blew tobacco smoke all over the right side of this man's face, and all over the mixture.

He was to immediately take a big spoonful of this and swish it around in his mouth for 30 minutes.

He was to do this twice a day, morning and night, 30 minutes each time until the mixture was gone. 

After the 30 minutes he was to spit it out in the dirt. 

After the very first application, he came to me in tears, and hugged me.

The constant mind twisting pain was gone.

I did not hear from him until four days latter.

He told me the pain was gone, the abscess/infection was pulled out and healed by the oils.  He swears to me there is no more pain, no more swelling, his teeth felt stronger and his mouth feels clean. 

I still recommend he go to the dentist.

He said he would, but until then asked if I would tell him how to make Ngurunfinda's toothache relief paste to use until he could afford the dentist visit.  

Who I am I to refuse?

My Nfumbe asked me that I share this so others can also get relief. 

Again, who am I to refuse?

Ngurufinda! Nsala Malecun! Protect us! We honor you!

Ngurufinda's Toothache Relief Paste

Coconut oil about a cup full.

Nine drops of clove oil

Six drops of Lavender oil

Mix very well.

Take a spoonful twice a day, morning and night. Very gently swish for 30 minutes and spit it out, preferably outside. 

You can repeat the process as need be and make more.

Daily coconut oil mouth pulls are an excellent form of dental health anyway. 

Alternatively you can ground up 2 tablespoons of dried cloves in a mortar and pestle. Add to a cup of coconut oil, and mix thoroughly. 

Take a spoonful twice a day, morning and night. Very gently swish for 30 minutes and spit it out, preferably outside. 

If you end up making Ngurunfinda's paste and it works for you, offer him a fruit or vegetable along with 3 pennies placed in a tree hollow or in the bushes, saying thank you Ngurufinda!
