This work is dedicated to Yemaya, our beautiful mother, so that she continues to offer us well-being, development and a good path.
Work for Yemayá (to the sea, the river or the mountain)
Ingredients:
- 7 pomegranates (fruits)
- 1 White or blue plate or tray
- 7 guinea peppers (whole)
- 7 candles or candles preferably
- Smoked fish
- Smoked hutia
- Toasted corn
- Sugarcane molasses
- Brandy or rum
- Blue fabric
Make sure before starting the work that you have all the necessary elements so that it can be carried out correctly and without obstacles.
Procedure to be carried out:
- He will take the 7 pomegranates and wash them with tap water to remove any negative energy the fruits may have.
- Cut each pomegranate in such a way that only the upper part of the fruit is removed (do not cut it in half), it should be as in the photo above.
- After drying, you will put them on the plate or tray you have chosen and on top of each pomegranate you will add the seasoning of:
- Smoked fish
- Smoked hutia
- Toasted corn
For the santeros, seasoning or adding the “seasoning” in this case refers to adding roasted corn, smoked fish and smoked hutía, it is like seasoning or seasoning, the elements are sprinkled on top.
- The 7 guinea peppers are placed 1 on top of each pomegranate.
- Then pour a stream of honey into each pomegranate and blow on brandy.
- Everything stands on Yemayá's foot and talks to her.
Remember that conversation is very important, all spiritual magic lies in how to give thanks, ask, supplicate and implore the Orisha.
- The work will be lit for 7 days with those large candles, that is, each day it will light them for a while, preferably at the same time.
- Once the 7 days are over, those grenades are taken and wrapped in blue cloth and taken to the sea. If he cannot, then to the river, and if he has neither of them close by and it is impossible for him, take him to the mountain and he is asked to Elegua to take that message to mother Yemayá.
Remember that Eleguá is the main messenger of Olofin, and there is no way that is closed to him.
Important: In case you do not have Yemayá crowned, you can do the work in front of an image of our Virgin of Regla, that with heart and faith everything is achieved and accepted.
