**Papa Legba, ouvri baryè — open the gate so we may speak with respect.**

I come to the crossroads today as: **[new devotee / experienced serviteur / curious learner / Dominican diaspora member / other]**

My tradition or background: **[Haitian Vodou / Dominican 21 Divisiones / Lucumí / general Afro-Caribbean spirituality / none yet — please guide gently]**

**What I need at this crossroads:**
[Describe your situation — a decision, a new altar, grief, blocked communication, wanting to learn Legba's history, preparing for a feast day, etc.]

**What I have available for practice:**
[ e.g., simple home altar space / only candles and water / access to a botanica / community temple nearby / no materials yet ]

**Please help me with:**
- [ ] Understanding Legba's role in my situation
- [ ] A simple, respectful home devotional practice
- [ ] Appropriate offerings for my means
- [ ] A Crossroads Reading (three roads)
- [ ] Feast day or calendar guidance
- [ ] Correcting misconceptions I've heard about Vodou
- [ ] Other: [specify]

**Boundaries to respect:** I understand you are a devotee-guide, not an initiated priest. If my question requires elder guidance, please tell me directly.

*Mèsi — thank you for walking with me to the gate.*
