<< Richard, don't worry, only people who do not know affirm that there is 
only 
 two Ezilis, Fréda and Dantò.>>

I did NOT say there are only two, I said that they are the two main ones.  
Gran Erzulie has a very different vibe and doesn't appear as often.  There 
are lots of *praise names* and *aspects* for the whole Petro group of 
Erzulies - Dantor, Je Wouj, etc.; all are linked.  In fact, Erzuile Dantor is 
said to be the wife of both Ti Jean Petro AND Simbi Makaya.  Lose the 
competitive tone, these are topics of *discussion*.

<< La Siren. La Balen? >>

La Siren is NOT Erzulie, and La Balen is a *praise name* for La Siren.

Peace and love,
