Yemaya
Yemaya, Queen of the Sea, epitomizes motherhood and rules all issues pertaining to women. She is among the most powerful and beloved of the Seven African Powers, the sexy matriarch of the Yoruba spirits known as orishas. The translation of her name, “The Mother Whose Children are Fish” has dual implications: • Yemaya’s children are innumerable: she is the mother of most of the orishas. • Her generosity and benevolence have also garnered her countless human devotees, equivalent to the innumerable fish of the sea. Yemaya has profound associations with the sea and saltwater. She resides in the sea, she is the spirit of the sea, and she is the sea, literally present in ocean water. Her nature resembles that of the sea: profound, beautiful, filled with treasure and generosity but also potentially tempestuous. Yemaya generously bestows abundance, wealth, healing, love, and fertility, but she is also the essence of tidal waves and rip currents. Yemaya, a profoundly powerful orisha, may be petitioned for: • Anything possibly considered a “woman’s issue • Fertility and reproductive issues • Protection from domestic violence, which she despises • Protection when traveling over the sea
