Trabou

By Crusader1307

In many South American Nations, a ‘’Trabou’’ is a combination of both ‘’Healer’’ and ‘’Witch’’. A Trabou can be either Male or Female and it can take many years of training in recognition of herbs and how to use them, as well as being able to properly ascertain possible ‘’spiritual possession’’. Controversially, Trabou’s combine standard Christian Religious beliefs and practices along with their Folk ‘’Magic’’ roots. There are several forms of Trabou. Those who deal with ‘’large scale’’ physical elements or conditions such as Cancers, are called ‘’Trabou Grandi’’ – while ‘’everyday remedies’’ are best treated by a ‘’Trabou Chiki’’. Trabou are also sought out for the placement of Curses and Hexes – as well as ‘’control Spells’’ such as ‘’Love Potions’’.
