Hey friends 💛✨🧡 My beautiful and wonderful lil sister makes these full size Orisha intention brooms by hand! She is a Priestess of Shango, and blesses the brooms with the power of her Orishas that she received. Right now she has Oshun and Ellegua brooms available for pick up, please feel free to message me or her to place your order!

These brooms can be used to fill your space with the energy of that Orisha and the qualities associated with them. You can also use the brooms to sweep negative energies out of your space! DM for questions or to place an order. Brooms are $135 each

I will also have a few available for the next pop up I’ll be at! Details coming soon🧹🖤✨🧙🏼‍♀️

This is a recent offering I have to my Santos 🍊🍇🍌🍐 Fruits are one of the most powerful offerings (adimus) we can give to the Orishas to show our gratitude. Something as simple as this, can change realities and make what seems impossible happen right before your eyes. The power is in the ASHE we put behind this kind of offering. Gratitude is the most powerful energy. Giving thanks for the divine guidance and protection we receive is one of the first lessons in Ifa and Santeria.

Fun fact: You absolutely can eat the fruits that have been given to Orishas. They have blessed it with their Ashe and it is one of the ways they keep on giving. 🤍✨

Just got home from a full 8 hours at school. About to continue making batches for my upcoming market this Sunday. All I can think of is how proud I am of myself for being able to work this hard. Working 2 jobs and going to school full-time is HARD. But I’m doing it and I am good at it. Sometimes I don’t even realize how much of my energy I am spending everyday. In my eyes, this is an investment into my future and my community who really benefit from my creations and want me to keep making them. I changed into white when I got home from class and I could just feel Obatala surrounding me. He gives me the strength and mental stability to keep going, to stay organized, and my mind focused on accomplishing my goals. I’m having a beautiful moment of reflection guys. I am definitely my father’s daughter. (IYKYK).
One thing I do know is I wouldn’t be able to continue without the support of my family and friends, and wonderful community of Brujas, spiritualists, and Orisha devotees. I’m overwhelmed with love for my life and all the busy-ness it comes with.
🤍🕊️

I cannot explain how blessed I feel to have grown up in such a beautiful tradition of Ifa and Santo. Everyday I feel closer to my Orishas, Orula, and My Eggun. 🤍🕯️the more i work and learn about way of IFA makes me fall in love with the tradition more and more. After every ceremony I feel closer to my ILE and spirituality. I’m so proud to have the crown of Obatalá Ayaguna.🤍❤️🤍✨ And Lucumi Apetebi💚💛 I swear I’ve learned so much about myself through this journey and how much this tradition has done for me. I’m having so much fun getting to know the new Francesca. Lol, just some of my Sunday reflections

I absolutely love vending with our community 💜✨ there is so much love n support every single time I go! I appreciate every single one of u who have visited my table to ask questions or just say hi. Seeing you guys brings me joy! It’s why I love making intention candles. Seeing some of u come back for more always warms my heart 🤍 I’m so grateful for all the friendships and connections I’ve made this past year. Ashe to all💫

Gratitude ✨🤎 i felt called to create a candle that can be used at the dinner table during times of togetherness and friendship. Or to amplify feelings of gratitude for all the abundance in our lives, and all of the blessings we’ve received this year. Love, thankfulness, abundance, community, and family are the words on my mind when making this beauty. I’ll have 4 available tomorrow at the Witch-O-Rama, hope to see u there!🧙🏼‍♀️🍂

Tomorrow at the Witch-o-Rama I will also bring my sister’s specialty brooms! They are Orisha themed and as a priestess she has blessed with her Santos. She made 4 Oshun brooms for tomorrow, and Oshun is the Orisha that represents love, fertility, marriages, wealth, self-love, and determination. Oshun is the mother and nurture of the humans. Thank you for sharing your gift with us!💛🌻🐝🍯🧡
