Voodoo and the Psychic French Quarter

Anybody looking for a job?

Loved the sign. This location has been in business for many years. You can go in and buy tea or get a reading.


Another great sign.

No one was inside getting a reading but I liked the way it was open and inviting.

 
This was inside a psychic store. I like the display. 


I like going in this shop. I wonder around and look at everything. They have a very nice altar open to the public to add an offering.



I did not have a chance to go inside. Maybe next time.


This is not the best quality photo but she was hiding right inside the door of a shop and it was hard to get good lighting. I thought she was interesting and had to take a picure of her anyway.

I look at this sign and wonder why if the shop is called Eye on the Square they show a triangle? I guess because Eye of the Triangle sounds awful? But Eye of the Pyramid does not sound that bad. Gosh what do people do with out me!!

When I was downloading all the pictures to todays blog, this particular print would not load. All the others uploaded easily. Madam Laveau was balking. So she is the last photo but the most famous lady of all. Not sure how I feel about her being the name of a bar but I really do like the painting of her on the sign itself. The sign painter did a nice job.

Hope you are not tiring of my French Quarter picks. I will be taking a break tomorrow and doing a day of Faux Tarot but watch for Tuesday and Wednesday for the Artists. There are some amazing artists in New Orleans.
