Gran Bwa or Big wood is an elemental, nature-oriented loa closely associated with trees, plants, and herbs in Haitian Vodou. Offerings to him include leaves and herbs, honey, and spiced rum. As a petro loa and loa of the wilderness, he can be fierce and unpredictable in some aspects.

Big wood, Master Crossroads and Baron Cemetery form the triad of magicians. They represent the journey of life; Big Wood represents the rich earth that you spring from and the dark woods you stumble through, Master Crossroads represents the various roads and paths you choose to travel on, and Baron Cimitère represents the end of the trip.
