Getting ready to receive the Warriors (Los Guerreros) means collecting a lot of pieces. This kit brings the supplies together in one order so you or your godparent have what's needed for Elegguá, Ogún, Ochosi and Osun.
In Santería, the Warriors are often the first Orishas a person receives. Elegguá opens and closes the roads, Ogún clears the way with his tools, Ochosi brings justice and the hunt, and Osun watches over your head and warns you of danger. Together they protect you and your home.
No. This is a supplies kit. The Warriors are received through a ceremony performed by your godparent or babalawo, and they decide how everything is prepared and consecrated. Many godparents ask their godchildren to bring a kit like this one.
