The initiation ceremony requires the preparation of pot tèts (head pots), usually white porcelain cups with a lid in which a range of items are placed, including hair, food, herbs, and oils. These are regarded as a home for the spirits. [289] After the period of seclusion in the djèvo, the new initiate is brought out and presented to the congregation; they are now referred to as ounsi lave tèt. [115] When the new initiate is presented to the rest of the community, they carry their pot tèt on their head, before placing it on the altar. [161] The final stage of the process involves the initiate being given an ason rattle. [290] The initiation process is seen to have ended when the new initiate is first possessed by a lwa. [161] Initiation is seen as creating a bond between a devotee and their tutelary lwa, [291] and the former will often take on a new name that alludes to the name of this lwa.

Vodou has also been characterized as polytheistic. [77] It teaches the existence of beings called the lwa, [81] a term varyingly translated into English as "spirits", "gods", or " geniuses". [82] These lwa are also known as the mystères, anges, saints, and les invisibles, [30] and are sometimes equated with the angels of Christian cosmology. [79] Vodou teaches that there are over a thousand lwa. [83] They serve as Bondye's intermediaries, [84] and communicate with humans both by possessing them and through dreams. [85] Vodouists believe the lwa are capable of offering people help, protection, and counsel in return for ritual service. [86] Each lwa has its own personality, [30] and is associated with specific colors, [87] days of the week, [88] and objects. [30] They are however not seen as moral exemplars for practitioners to imitate. [89] The lwa can be either loyal or capricious in their dealings with their devotees; [30] they are easily offended, for instance if offered food they dislike. [90] When angered, the lwa are believed to remove their protection from their devotees, or to inflict misfortune, illness, or madness on an individual. [91] Daniel, Yvonne (2005).

In northern Haiti, an additional rite takes place at the ounfò on the day of the funeral, the kase kanari (breaking of the clay pot). In this, a jar is washed in substances including kleren, placed within a trench dug into the peristil floor, and smashed. The trench is then refilled. [420] The night after the funeral, the novena takes place at the home of the deceased, involving Roman Catholic prayers; [421] a mass for them is held a year after death. [422] Vodouists fear the dead's ability to harm the living; [423] it is believed that the deceased may for instance punish their living relatives if the latter fail to appropriately mourn them.

The association of colors, foods, plants and other items with specific loa and the use of these items to pay tribute to the loaForming a spiritual community of practitioners, [201] the ounfò's congregation are known as the pititt-caye (children of the house). [262] They worship under the authority of an oungan or manbo, [43] below whom is ranked the ounsi, individuals who make a lifetime commitment to serving the lwa. [263] Members of either sex can join the ounsi, although most are female. [264] The ounsi's duties include cleaning the peristil, sacrificing animals, and taking part in the dances at which they must be prepared to be possessed by a lwa. [265] The oungan and manbo conduct initiatory ceremonies whereby people become ounsi, [231] oversee their training, [229] and act as their counsellor, healer, and protector. [266] In turn, the ounsi are expected to be obedient to their oungan or manbo. [265]

Catholic religious holidays became Voodoo holidays for the corresponding loa. For instance, celebrations for a family of spirits called the Gedes, who are personifications of dead ancestors, take place on All Saints Day and All Souls Day.
