Yemoja

Yemoja is a prominent Yoruba deity and spiritual figure, revered as the mother of all Orishas (deities) and often associated with the nurturing aspects of water, especially rivers, lakes, and the ocean. She embodies motherhood, fertility, and compassion, providing protection and emotional support to her followers. Historically, Yemoja is regarded as a powerful maternal force who sustains life through water and is honored through rituals, offerings, and festivals. She holds significant cultural and spiritual importance in West African traditions and in Afro-diasporic religions like Santería and Candomblé.
