The flag is published in the book Spirits in Sequins:  Vodou Flags of Haiti by Nancy Josephson (p. 110).  She writes:  "In this narrative, the spirits are unwilling to release the newly deceased body, feeling that those who may abuse the life force don't understand the goodness of the life rcently departed."
