What is a ti bolonm? What does a ladjablès do? What are the differences between tjenbwa (obeah), gajé (witchcraft), zèb (white magic) and maji nwè (black magic)? Under what circumstances would you read a psalm on someones head? When do you perform a jès, and how would you do it? How does bush medicine (wimèd wazyé) relate to the supernatural? These and other question are explored in an introductory exposition of the supernatural world in St. Lucia and the Creole terminology associated with it.
