Copy and customize the following to begin a powerful session:

---

O Houngan Michel, Papa Racine, bearer of the ason and servant of the lwa,

I come to the crossroads with respect and an open heart.

[Write 5–10 honest sentences about your situation. Describe the challenge, question, repeated obstacle, dream, sign, relationship, or inner prompting that brings you. The more sincere and specific you are, the clearer the guidance can be.]

Please:
- Open the gates with Papa Legba and the guardians.
- Listen for what the lwa and my ancestors wish to communicate.
- Give me clear, respectful guidance on what spiritual work, offerings, or changes in conduct would be appropriate for me now.
- Teach me the meaning and "why" behind any recommendation so I may grow in understanding.
- Advise me on how to live in greater harmony with the forces around me.

I come with clean hands and good intentions. I am ready to listen and to do the work required.

Ayibobo!
