Egunes and Kiumbas

Egunes and Kiumbas

In Santería, Umbanda, Quimbanda, and Vudú, it is known as Egunes or Egguns, the souls of the already disembodied, the deceased and the deceased. While the Orishas (deities) are incarnations of the different aspects of the universe and nature (the sea, love, good luck, night), the egunes are the souls of beings who have lived and perished.

In the different forms of witchcraft found in the Afro-Brazilian cult, it is customary to use the term "egguns" to refer more clearly to souls who live in pain, or who are under some kind of hex or spell that forces them To remain on earth, whether for good or evil, thus differentiating themselves from common souls.

On the other hand, there are Kiumbas, forms of egguns very backward in spiritual evolution, are negative, very dangerous, also somewhat "dumb" and are often made to pass for other egguns, in fact, can take the form of anyone who has perished , And are accustomed to appear before the mourners in the form of a loved one who has just left to stay anchored on the earth for a longer time.

The kiumbas are intuitively treacherous and cheating, watch over their own good and therefore are able to easily deceive poorly indoctrinated mediums and people who plunge into the magical world without sufficient training.

According to Brazilian folklore, the kiumbas possess shamans and spiritualists very young and lacking in practice, leading them to suffer from mental illness, hallucinations, madness and arriving in the majority of cases to commit suicide.

Note: Egguns often help witches and practitioners, although they often do not at the expense of the happiness of other humans, so they must be "handled" (invoked, conjured and worked) with great care.

Iyamis (the Witches)

Iyamis (the Witches)

ÌYÁÀMI ÒSÒRÒNGÁ or IAMI OXORONGA. It is in the Santeria and Yoruba religion, the eternal spirit of the ancestral mother, colloquially known as "the witches". It represents the power generating female life par excellence.

Iyami Oshoronga is the queen of the cult of sorcery. Its followers are witches and witches, who can be white or black, as well as they can be good, bad or neutral. They all form the cult of witchcraft and are known as "Ajogun" or "Ajonjun" meaning "respectable Old Dignitary of the night."

Iyami treasures, guard and cell the mysteries of life, she has the power to manage the natural order as well as the order of life and the power to eliminate as a method of balance through its magic.

Ìyáàmi, maintains the balance of the natural, severely punishing those who violate the laws of IFA. It is very delicate balance and order when it comes to Ìyáàmi, nothing should be done in regard to Òrìsá, or Ifá if the priest does not have proper instruction, since our mother witch, does not allow anyone to make sacrifices without no Possesses a certain knowledge of the priestly function.

Among his enormous powers, Iyami always hears the truth and only the truth, for the lies never reach his ears and the liars die of shame in front of him, he blesses his devotees with good fortune and material goods to live, he finds hidden treasures in The night and bring the ancestors from any world (even if they have reincarnated, she can recognize their souls and bring them wherever they want), erase sad memories and alter memories, is said to grow trees in any corner (even in the More arid lands), has a supernatural dominion of all the elements, to the point that the spirits of nature obey him, worship him, and some even fear him, it is said that when someone is willing to do a great evil on the Humanity, Iyami curses him to commit suicide before committing such an act, as long as he has a witch to intervene, he can ruin the good fortune of anyone who walks in front of him Without her permission, gives witches all kinds of powers, communicates with the trees, animals and all plants, she is the original witch of the bird cult, who visits people at night jumping over their Roofs mounted on a broom and can be transmuted into thousands of birds.

In the African cult, it is believed that Iyami curses a village when dozens of small black birds are flying over it in the morning, when this happens, all kinds of animals are sacrificed to calm their anger and ask for forgiveness.

Iyami was the one who taught Oya (the Orisha of the wind and death) the art of sorcery and all forms of mysticism, art that later Oya (in the Yoruba myth) surrendered humanity for its own good, and also for its Own evil.

Iyami visits the lagoons at night and sleeps next to them, if found by a believer this gives him the gift of prophecy and hundreds of riches, if it is found by an unbeliever, this causes blindness and a martyrdom to death .

Iyami is the one who turns the wishes of the witches into reality, and who manifests his deepest desires in the world, but only Iyami witches who have received their cauldron in an Ifa house can worship and communicate directly with her.

In the cult of Brazil, it is said that when witches die, Iyami keeps a special place next to her in the other world, where she grants them powers beyond the natural and allows them to enter the world of the living at any time Day in the form of birds of dark plumage every 21 days.

By tradition, when the name of Iyami Osoronga (Ìyáàmi Òsòròngá) is pronounced, whoever is sitting has to get up, whoever stands would bow down, for this is a fearsome Orixá (Òrìsà), to whom complete respect is due.


Iyami is sacrificed to owls, owls and chickens, but only the guts are eaten in wooden dishes, she always demands the highest respect, she manifests to her followers through omens and omens always accompanied by an aroma of herbs Fresh, in the cult Iyami is considered as the Orisha of unbreakable curses, in fact other Gods and Orishas fear their power and because of this they pay him enormous respect.

It is believed that from their mystical cult comes the semi-Christian myth of "crossroads demons," for when Africans came to New Orleans, it is believed that they left tributes to Iyami at half the crossroads, and when their Bosses asked them a reason for it, they said it was to calm the demons on the way.

In Africa, Brazil, and Latin America, crossroads are considered as "Iyami bridges," and silver and animal guts are left to gain favor and protection.

To invoke, before setting the sun, at the crossroads, we make an X on the floor, with the index finger, attitude taken before all that represents danger. If we do it during the night, we pass the extended hand to the height of the head, from one side to the other, so that it does not pose, which would mean the death.

Iyami is also the term used in Santeria to refer to the witches who follow the Iyami cult, and to the witches (women or men) who are part of their court in the afterlife, who are paid tribute in Set and they are given to eat at night.

The phrase "feeding the witches" refers to the magical act of opening a hole in the ground by the river to venerate Iyami and his powerful sorcerer's court, throwing cooked food, meat, fruit, milk, wine and honey at Hole and closing it with dirt and dust from mirrors.
