5 Short prayers to Oshosi to guide us along the paths of Justice

Ochosi is one of the warrior Orishas in the Yoruba religion, one of the first that each religious receives when he begins his spiritual path.

We implore him for the justice of the world, for those unjustly imprisoned and in general, for all the wretched and abandoned. Ochosi is protector of the souls in pain.

In Santeria this sacred Orisha is known as the hunter of the Ocha, as it represents hunting and judicial order within humanity.

His deity represents justice and order, the one who protects those who have been wronged.

Ochosi is the guardian of the innocent people of this world, he is the hunter who loads his arrows and never fails.

In the Yoruba pantheon, it is the thought that can be transferred in time to any place, which is why he is considered a sorcerer and connoisseur of the secrets of the mountains.

Pray to the vigilante Oshosi What is asked of the hunter of the Ocha?

The prayer to Ochosi is usually focused on the most recurrent themes such as the search for health and protection, for fortune or to drive away evil people, in addition to, of course, issues of injustice.

Ochosi is prayed to in many different spheres, because let us remember that he is a protector of the unfortunate and can help us overcome everything that hurts us or causes us sadness.

Prayers are raised to Oshosi to:

Justice. The prayer for justice is the main one dedicated to Ochosi, since he is the Orisha of equanimity who can help us solve any problem related to injustice.
The money. Ochosi can help us solve a difficult financial situation if we show that we are worthy of your help and support. He will be on our side to spare us misery and grief
The protection and health. The hunter of the Ocha can also offer us his immense protection hand in hand with Oggun, patron of the irons and faithful companion of Ochosi. They both constitute an unstoppable force.
Work. As Ochosi is an inseparable companion of Oggún, the tireless worker, he can intercede with him to help us find better job opportunities.
Love. Ochosi can also help us find happiness and love, especially if we have lost our other half due to an argument or other problem.

How and where to ask the great Ochosi?

The prayer to Ochosi if possible should be done in an isolated space to find calm, or in an altar dedicated to this deity, adorned with its colors and symbols.

You can also decorate or set a space with objects that the Orisha likes, or candles with Ochosi's characteristic colors, which are blue, yellow and coral.

We can go to the mountains and seek a natural connection with Ochosi and thus pray to him in the quiet of the undergrowth, telling him like a father our problems and difficulties, asking for his help to solve them and his blessing to continue the path of life safely.

Their favorite herbs or ewes are sapote, ateje, coriander, male river fern, red piglet, river flax.

We can spread corojo butter on his tools to worship him.
