Handmade Krampus VooDoo doll measures 6 inchesKRAMPUS
In Central European folklore, Krampus is a horned, anthropomorphic figure described as "half-goat, half-demon", who, during the Christmas season, punishes children who have misbehaved, in contrast with Saint Nicholas, who rewards the well-behaved with gifts. Krampus is one of the companions of Saint Nicholas in several regions including Austria, Bavaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Northern Italy including South Tyrol and the Province of Trento, Slovakia, and Slovenia. The origin of the figure is unclear; some folklorists and anthropologists have postulated it as having pre-Christian origins.
There are many types of voodoo dolls for all purposes, such as love, healing, empowerment, guidance, fertility or cursing. Some dolls are made into talismans or even teaching aids for children. The color of the doll has very strong inclinations for its intended purpose.
White – positive, purification or healing.
Red – love, attraction or power.
Green – growth, wealth, money and fertility.
Yellow – success and confidence.
Purple – spirit realm, wisdom or psychic exploration.
Blue – love and peace.
Black – negative; it can be used to dispel negative energy or to summon it.
These seven colors are also found on pins and needles. They are stuck into the doll to emphasize the intention.
The voodoo doll is often meant to address the spirit of a particular person. It can be used to summon the spirit through the Loa so that it hears your plea and makes manifest your desires, wishes and wants.
