Vévé of various Loa of the Voodoo religion.

I can’t comment fully, as I don’t know them very well, but I’m pretty sure the heart is actually Erzuli Freda and not Dantor. Dantor’s has a knife in it, if I recall correctly.

No it’s not Freda, the curvy whiskers bit isn’t in the right place. While I usually draw Dantor with a knife too, a simple google search shows this one is also under Dantor. I suppose it’s a bit like Papa Legba’s and Met Kalfu’s veves, where I’ve seen about 3 versions of each.

I don’t trust Google. XD And I’ve only ever seen the veve knife version, which is why I said something.

I do know that there are something like five versions that I’ve seen of Legba’s veve, though, so it would stand to reason that there would be different versions of each lwa’s veve. They are all seen differently, worked with differently, etc. So, I suppose it’s possible.

I trust google only for proving that someone out there uses it. Whether it’s correct or not is up for debate.
