Agarou Tonnerre

Pierre, Andre (Haitian, 1916 – 2005)

(Agawou Tonnè) – The spirit of thunder. When Danmbala speaks, the spirit of thunder answers. That is why when it rains with thunder there is no danger. But when it rains and there is no thunder, there is danger. During a hurricane, there usually is no thunder. If during a hurricane one hears thunder, one should kneel and praise the Lord that it is all over.
