Simbi Makaya is a Lwa of magic, able to add power to your charms, potions, divination tools, and to your petitions. Items he enjoys as offerings are very “manly;” cigars, whiskey, a whip, raw meat, and peppers. I have a large bottle of rum that I pour from for most Lwa, but I keep a special bottle of whiskey just for Simbi Makaya.
I was looking up steak tartare, and found quite a few opinions on how to prepare it! Some say you must start with a very good piece of steak. No matter how you serve the raw meat to Simbi Makaya, use the quality and care that you would offer to an honored guest — at least as good as you would eat yourself! With a package of meat, I’ll often offer some of it raw for Simbi and cook the other part for myself for dinner. For hot peppers, I choose the nicest ones from the grocery store. Simbi gets all of those, carefully sliced and arranged on the plate with the meat.
Please join us Thursday, January 30th 9 PM Eastern Time (8 PM Central, 7 PM Mountain, 6 PM Pacific) for an online ritual to Simbi Makaya. You may send in a prayer request ahead of time or ask during the ritual, and your prayers are appreciated when you can offer them for others’ requests!
Love, Khouzhan Lucy
