How to Baptize a Voodoo Doll or Poppet

Did you know that you can baptize a Voodoo doll to activate its most powerful magickal properties? But first, you have to consecrate your doll. The act of consecration involves opening up to and tapping into the Universal Divine force from which all possibilities, solutions, and miracles emanate. To consecrate a Voodoo doll for ritual use is to connect to this Universal Divine force and to declare sacred or appropriate for sacred use the object at hand.

Consecrating an object removes any negativity that may be attached to the object and purifies it. It removes the vibrational energies of anyone who has handled the object other than you. This is the foundation of any effective magick or ceremonial work.

If you are wanting to use your Voodoo doll or poppet in ritual, it is appropriate to consecrate the doll. To do so is a simple process. You will need your Voodoo doll, a white candle, and some sage, cedar, or sandalwood incense, and something to burn the herbs or incense in. If you do not have access to these items, you may purchase a Voodoo Doll Baptism Kit from Creole Moon.

To begin, light some incense as an offering to the Divine entity of your understanding. Place the doll on your altar. 

 Sprinkle the doll with salt and say:

"I consecrate you with the element of Earth."

Pass the object through the incense and say:

"I consecrate you with the element of Air."

Pass the object through candle flame and say:

"I consecrate you with the element of Fire."

Sprinkle the object with water and say:

"I consecrate you with the element of Water."
​
Place the object on the altar and hold your hand over it. Visualize a beam of light coming from the Divine through your hands into the object. Say:

"I hereby name this doll ______________ and declare it charged with the powers of earth, air, fire, water, and spirit. That it shall be used only for good, according to my will and divine law. May it serve me well in this world, between worlds, in all the worlds. Let it be so!"

Your doll baby is now ready to be used.
