Ochosi is the divine hunter whose arrow never misses its mark. He stalks silently through the forest hunting his pray. Ochosi is the force of blind justice in the world, and is said to rule the court systems, police officers, jails, and other executors of the law. He is the piercing tip of the arrow, drawn across a bow and launched through the air with purpose. Helping us to attain our goals while maintaining an ethical and straight path through life. Ochosi is best friends with Eleggua and Ogun and is often found hunting with them. His colors are blue and amber. Ochosi’s numbers are 3 and 7.
Ochosi Prayer: “Ochosi please guide and protect me. Open the doors of opportunity by removing obstacles from my path. Give me courage to overcome my problems and defeat my enemies. Bring justice and balance to my life by bestowing your wisdom upon me. With your powers please give me the strength to fight and win my daily battles. I am ready for your winds of change that bring prosperity to my realm. AMEN.”
Orishas are spiritual beings who have been tasked with maintaining this Earth, watching over the affairs of humanity and each has dominion over a portion of nature. Each Orisha is identified with natural forces as well as with human interests or endeavors. These Orishas are mediators between humanity and the Supreme Being.
Pray to Orishas because they are already in heaven, and they can intercede for you. In moments of anxiety, you need to hope and believe in something that helps you recover faith and maintain peace in your life.
A mojo bag is a tool that you can fill with magical, lucky, symbolic or other spiritual items to create a “prayer in a bag” or a “spell in a bag”. The mojo bag can be carried with you or placed on your personal alter.
The contents of each bag is determined by your goal and aim of your prayer or spell. For example, a mojo bag carried for love drawing will contain different ingredients than one for gambling luck or magical protection.Ingredients can include roots, herbs, animal parts, minerals, coins, crystals, good luck tokens, and carved amulets. The more personalized objects are used to add extra power because of their symbolic value.
A mojo bag is not an inanimate talisman, but rather the physical body of a spiritual ally. In short, it is a living thing and as such it should have a name just like you were given a name when you were born. Psychologically speaking, assigning a name to your mojo helps one to facilitate the idea that it is a living thing with it's own personality, habits, needs, desires, etc. Once you choose the name of your mojo bag, use that name when addressing the bag communicating your needs or asking for its assistance.
