RE: Haitian Vodou – Damballah - The Primordial Serpent
As I like to read between the lines I understood Damballah and Ayida are basically yin-yang. And they shed the skin as a metaphor on our changes in lives, as we need to shed our skin. :) Thank you for this beautiful article.
I didn't envision them as such because they are not the opposites. Many of Haitian loa have their opposites, but there is no opposite for Damballah as none come close to his power and wisdom :)
Female-male? :)
Slight differences, not the opposites in my opinion. We have more similarities than differences ;)
After all, it is still contrary yet complementary. :) Yes yes :)
