SOLD!~ Voodoo Priestess Estate ~ ©
7 5/8" Faden Lined Tabular Generator Energy, Phantom Rainbow Tower Brazilian Lemurian Cave Crystal
an 1888 LiDiex Suite Find
~!~
Twenty-three years have now passed since we were called to do the estate that had been closed up for seventeen years!
The Voodoo Estate!
This type of call usually gets us excited as they are a treasure trove. Located here in Florida, there was no electricity or running water so we rigged our own lighting and in we went. If you have ever seen the Adams Family you will have some idea as to what we were greeted with! Then the attorney handling the liquidation gave us some background. The estate had belonged to an alleged powerful Voodoo Priestess/JooJoo Exorcist, grand daughter of a Marie Laveau, and favored daughter of a Marie Glapion. These names meant nothing to us, but the late night talk of Voodoo and exorcism in the old mansion was enough for us to spend the night in a hotel and return in the morning to assess the estate. The rest is history. Our research has shown that this woman was what she claimed and was indeed descended from a long line of well known Vodoun family originating in New Orleans in the early 1800's.
We were somewhat unnerved by this until we discovered they were also devout Catholics! Although I have to admit this was unlike any Catholic home we have ever been in and some of the items found inside were a little more than disturbing.
There was no feeling of dread or unwelcome in the mansion, however there was quite a bit of contraband and other items we can or will not sell here.This is one of a few pieces from this estate we will be listing this week, so check our listings.
We will, upon the new guardian's request, issue a named Letter of Authenticity with each lot from this estate, complying with the terms set forth to us by the estate's attorney.

Some Back Story
Here is one of the quartz crystal formations she has inventoried as, "Faden Lined Tabular Generator Energy, Phantom Rainbow Tower Brazilian Lemurian Cave Crystal" as the title implies. Her journals and inventory tell us this is one of the fourteen crystal towers she had brought back from Brazil in 1949. We know very little of this trip due to two missing ledgers. She does tell us her guide had taken her party to a group of crystal caves in southern Brazil where these formations were recovered. We sold more than half of these crystals since 2007 and this is one of the remaining six. What we have been able to piece together from the remaining journals is the estate once had a rooftop observatory that was a Crystallography teaching classroom for the personal use of the residents. It was where the teaching of crystals or Crystallography as they saw it was taught. These teachings involved Hermes Trismegistus early interactions with their, and if one can believe her notes, if you are reading this, "your ancestor's!" It is also apparent their studies included the geometry of crystals that measured the angles of crystal faces relative to theoretical reference axes and establishing the symmetry of the crystal. Some of the teaching relics found were optical goniometer's. We had no idea as to what they were at the time, but have since determined those that taught and learned here conducted scientific occult studies of crystal formations. It is really unfortunate that what amounted to what we feel may have been the most comprehensive occult and alchemic libraries ever compiled was destroyed by water, heat, light, humidity, dust, dirt, rodents, insects and microorganisms.
The observatory itself was torn from the roof by Hurricane Andrew.
This is also another crystal formation that was recovered from the suite of the 1888 LiDiex.
1888 LiDiex
 The research involved in this estate provides continuous fascination. The end user of this crystal was a man known only as "LiDiex." A 4th. generation descendant of the original Man Known Only as "LiDiex" to these shores who arrived as a survivor and saboteur of the slave Ship Henrietta Marie in 1701. He then found his way to New Orleans to meet with the parents with the then infant grandmother of our priestess, Marie Laveau. He made his way as a wood carver, furniture and cabinet maker as did many of his descendants. This is another case of the multi-generational relationships we have encountered with this family as the LiDiex all had a strong association with these women. Although he was not a full time resident of this estate, he kept a suite of rooms with her from the time of his sixteenth birthday. Apparently he would leave for periods of up to a decade before returning, shutting himself in her estate for years before leaving again. He is attributed with the design and consecration of the, "Resurrection Skull Altar" and most of the ceremonial spells used with it. Her journals and those of a number of her live in practitioner followers tell of this altar being used in ritual resurrection ceremonies. There are some pretty fantastic tales of animating inanimate objects, most notably a number of articulated skulls using specific minerals, potions, elixirs, reptiles, chants and incantations. He is described in her journals as being, "in excess of six feet of sinewy muscle, deceptively strong, easily matching two of his size in their grappling" and "extensively shaved, tattooed and pierced." "Those eyes of azure that turn to pools of deep amethyst" in addition to, "shown to be capable of high magic without devices." Both their journals claim his ability to heal wounds, shape shift, create life with the power of his thought, telepath, and travel through time and space. They also corroborate the sharing of identities with a number of other LiDiex, "being a master of disguise and misdirection, often with his mere thought" according to these entries. This gave these men the ability to appear in two places at once, an old family ploy that was apparently often used by their Mistresses. It is this LiDiex who is attributed with making her introduction to Alexandra David Neel and his journals tell of numerous meetings and short adventures with her. Claiming at the age of twenty four to have met Neel for the second time in the company of Prince Sidkeong of Sikkim and of being her teacher of the Tibetan language having already spent six years with the Great Hermit as apprentice. Much is already written on these subjects, so there is no need to elaborate here in this already overly long text, but we wholeheartedly recommend a cursory search for some very interesting reading. ~!~ This Crystal Their journals indicate this LiDiex's use of these stones for past life dream recall, divination and spell invocation. They describe his crystals being, "held aloft in both hands before being drawn into the chakra in descending order as a prelude to entering the meditative state." This describes a lengthy, silent use of intense physical and mental concentration as this would take upwards of three hours to perform. "Holding it aloft, in the lap or caressed upon a stand or pillow throne while unconsciously caressing it to the point where the crystal cuts flesh, this blood being left on the body and the stone to activate and feed it." She also notes, "these stones have side affects, usually on those not indoctrinated to our ways," as she puts it in one entry. These side affects include disorientation, nervousness, excessive sweating and nausea. Another entry reads, "If these discomforts arise, discontinue your use, bathe and cleanse yourself. After a brief rest you may continue, noticing longer periods of use without discomfort with each successive session." Another entry reads, "Ones chakra must be cleansed once the stone has let blood. Once considered, it is a stone of clear communication, allowing access to information along the timeline of our adult and childhood spirit memories often invoking laughter. This is a beneficial, healing crystal we have utilized in stimulating intuit ability blocked with childhood memories. These are advanced practitioner stones that communicate this knowledge to those that walk our paths. This is not a lone use stone, as it feeds on, and generates energy among groups fostering the group energy into a single, focused force that can be controlled as it is quite cooperative." Following their instructions, we grasped the stone in both hands, locating the, "various tools and gazing into its depth." There are numerous formations on the body and faces of this crystal with the pyramid face she mentions as, "being a window" is obvious. Real or imagined, we do understand why these people were as feared respected as they were. But Back to The Crystal
It should also be noted that their crystals found their way to many areas of practice conducted throughout the estate being used in "divination, spell and individual work as well as healing." Our examination of this crystal concluded it is as she describes, "a Faden Lined Tabular Generator Energy, Phantom Rainbow Tower Brazilian Lemurian Cave Crystal" and more!It measures approximately 7 5/8" x 3 1/4" x 2 9/16" and weighs 2 lbs., 10 oz.
It is as stated a Faden Lined, phantom crystal with excellent clarity through approximately 90% of its formation with distinct milky feather lines which are clearly visible within its interior structure. Faden lines manifest primarily in tabular crystals so this one is no exception. It is believed these lines represent the seed point of growth and they have the ability to activate or start new growth within one's self or within someone you are working with, utilizing healing energy.
Generator crystals will have six equally sized side planes terminating in a central tip. It is unusual to find this shape naturally occurring in nature. One might find a point with the energy signature of a generator, but its physical confirmation will not be generator specific with equal size planes and centrally located tip. Those that are have usually been ground and polished into generator points, as in the case of this one. The above mentioned tools, the optical goniometer's were used to establish the enhanced natural angles of the planes and faces of this tower and "accelerate the energy of these crystals" which they claim to be an enhancement to the naturally occurring point as the internal structure of the crystal is not the same.
The natural angles of the crystal faces of this formation, although not perfect, is that of a generator or Merlin crystal as the energy emits from its centrally located point which is in excellent condition. There are also numerous sharp areas of this formation which were intentionally ground and polished down. These were used to draw blood onto the crystal in order to activate it. These now exist on the bottom and one of the side planes.
The phantoms present visibility as ghost-like inclusions which display the former state of growth of the crystal. Phantoms are rare and add collectability and value to a crystal. Quartz assists in healing any condition and is respected for its purifying effects. This is an excellent crystal for meditation.Although it does not meet the exact configuration of a generator formation, it still emits the energy of one.
Their journals tell us "it has a powerful direct focused energy emission."
Many of the inclusions are heat sensitive Aurora Borealis or Rainbow inclusions which were caused by fractures. These rainbow crystal are noted for their happy energies and love auras,
These inclusions will appear white until you pick it up and exhale upon it revealing the colorful display. Connect to the gift of love these crystals with Rainbows bring.
It is certainly a beautiful formation with an extraordinary provenance that is much nicer than the photographs are able to depict.

We have been contacted and visited by a number of people who were interested in the items from this estate since our first batch was listed. Among the buyers have been known psychics and practitioners. More than one, after adorning themselves or handling their purchase, stated "this is a woman of power!" Many of our clients, after receiving items from this estate have reported dream contacts and other unexplained phenomenon.
Unusual, authentic Voodoo Priestess Estate piece and at a bargain price! This is truly a rare opportunity to own anything with attributes to this estate. The majority of this estate is now gone. Most of what we had left, and it was considerable, has been split up and sold to a couple of private, foreign collector practitioners that will never be available to the public again. We made the decision to do this as we have had some pretty strange visits from even stranger individuals and there have been enough unexplained phenomenon going on in the warehouse where her things were kept that many of our employees refused to go in there. The pieces offered and sold here are some of the few remaining that will ever be offered to the public. Nice addition to any collection, altar, or decor, displays really well. Really doesn't get any better than this. There are 12 photographs below to tell the rest of this tale. Buyer to pay $0.00 for Insured Ground Shipping with Tracking and our own Brilliant handling with lagniappe. Rest assured your order will be carefully packed to withstand the onslaught of the most deranged of Postal Workers.
