Obba She is the ideal wife and the strong and capable woman. She is a powerful Orisha in her sacrifice, a woman who knows what she wants and defends it.
It is the Orisha of the Yoruba pantheon that represents repressed love and suffering and symbolizes conjugal fidelity.
Her name comes from the Yorùbá Òbbá (Òbè: soup – Obá: king), literally "The one with the king's soup", and is due to a Yoruba legend that tells that she cut off an ear and fed it to him. to the great Shango, King of Thunder, who, disappointed by the loss of his wife's beauty, banished her from his side.
Obba was so ashamed that he sought refuge in the solitude of the mountain and later in the cemetery. There he cries for betrayal and hides from the world.
Obba Naní is greeted! And because of his closeness to the Yoruba Goddess of Love and Rivers, Oshún, Obba also wears five gold bracelets.
The Yoruba goddess of sacrifice, Obba, was syncretized with three Catholic saints:
- Saint Rita of Cassia,
- Saint Catherine of Siena and
- Saint Catherine of Alexandria.
Her cults represent sacrifice, loneliness and love in their purest definition, but they also reflect their abilities as strong and determined warriors, powerful women with immense faith.
