How do you Summon a cross

Hello I've been doing non stop reasearch on how to summon a crossroads demon but can't find anything that adds up on how i can do this. Listen my reasons are purely selfish and I would like it if you would't give me a lecture on why i shouldn't. If anyone can help me that would be awesome. - ArchangelKC

Oh I'm not gonna lecture you on why you shouldn't. I will recommend you not take the Supernatural series so seriously. Crossroad demons aren't anything like the show. In fact, if you look at the history of it, there weren't special demons at cross roads. It was just the place to go to summon any demon. The idea of a special crossroad demon comes from voodoo where you might come across the Loa spirit of Papa Legba at the crossroads. The dog is sacred to him...which is one theory for that whole make a deal and the hell hounds come for you in the end. But he isn't there to trade your soul for some deal as that isn't a thing in voodoo.

Thank you. I mean Supernatural is a good show i was more talking about the famous blues musician. Supernatural is a TV show I'm not basing this question on the show thats just silly. Thank you for the info.

IrisMoon is right. But some names may have been lost in oral tradition, and some aspects relegated to old wives' tales.

I have read the (supposedly) if a person wants to meet "the devil" (as some more popular tales have come to term it) at the crossroads, it needs to meet many specific requirements.* There's a legend in the Blues about a specific intersection in Mississippi, where a festival is now held annually.

But ultimately the crossroads is symbolic more than anything else. It is about the opportunity to change one's direction in life. It's about profound personal sacrifice. It is, in my opinion, one of those great legends of real magic. A person goes on a journey to begin personal change; they find their crossroads, and they do whatever it takes to turn the corner in stead of going straight. Whether they go (symbolically) right or left will have a vastly different effect. One leads to success, the other failure. But moving straight ahead yeilds more of the same life, so the traveler chooses to turn.

*some of the things I remember specifically: the road 'must' be unpaved, very isolated, possibly run in the four cardinal directions, or at least at right angles, and be as uniform in each direction as possible. It cannot seem to offer change in itself; the road is the unknown and unlimited potential.

Many Spirits are associated with the Crossroads, such as Papa Legba and Hecate. Like Prsona said the Crossroads is a very powerful symbol of change, and it is also a symbol of unity. As much as crossroads separate, they bring together also.
