to attract good things

Nothing is impossible for any Orisha, less for Yemayá, who is a head saint, he is within the 5 main deities of Santeria or Osha-Ifa Rule. His character is changeable like the waves of the sea, but his love is as deep as the ocean itself and the force of the sea brings and carries things.

«Beautiful mother, make all the good things come to me with the force of the sea, job offers, money, love, good energies and all the ashe that you, mother, want to give me. As the current and the waves of the sea attract shells, snails and treasures to the shore sand, make me attract a good streak and all the Ire and take root in my house and in my life. So be it".

to remove the evil eye

The evil eye is a negative energy that some people transmit through their eyes.. Normally, it is related to bad feelings on the part of the transmitters, although, on some occasions, it is only due to the nature of their astral, without any bad intention. Yemayá, for being an Orisha who knows the mysteries of sorcery and who rubs shoulders without any problem with the energy of the spirits, is very effective in getting rid of bad energies. A prayer that can be used in such situations is the following:

“Ancient mother, queen of the sea.

Mother of good and kindness.

You who are the siren who sings in the world for the defeat of evil.

You protect your children in this world like no one else.

Under your mantle there will be no bad eyes that can harm me.

By the power of your seven skirts I unleash all spells, witchcraft, evil, natural or artificial illness.

By the power of your waters, I heal, heal and bless my physical and spiritual body, giving way to life, health and prosperity.

Ashe».


Prayer to Yemaya against enemies

Yemaya despite being a female Orisha, it is estimated that she can easily work alongside any man, in fact in some of her avatars she wears pants and skillfully handles various weapons. Therefore, he can go to war at any time, being ruthless with his enemies. This is a prayer for wars at the foot of this Orisha:

“I praise the beloved and respected lady of the river. Yemaya.

You, blessed warrior, who fought countless battles alongside Oggun, demonstrating your bravery and fierceness.

You who, due to your impetuous character, seemed to have lost the hegemony of the world but gained dominion over the surface of the seas.

Always win, never lose. In this way make me win over my enemies and my opponents who lie in wait for me and wait for my fall (make request).

Make everyone who gets in my way feel your power my mother Yemaya.

That just as the waves of the sea move from right to left, so live your life without any peace as long as you keep firm your desire to harm me.

You are the bearer of the saber, the spear, and the sacred dagger with which you have to protect and defend all your children.

Your blue flag will always be raised on anyone who dares to go to war with you. Do not allow the evil against me to materialize, not today, not tomorrow, not ever. Ashe».
