WHAT ARE GUIDES?

", "

Guides are sacred objects that serve as a link between the believer and the Orixás. Therefore, they should be treated with respect and devotion.

", "

A guide is not just an ordinary necklace. It's a protective object that must be consecrated by an Entity or through consecration rituals when the believer undergoes an initiation process to have its desired effect.

", "

TYPES OF GUIDES:

", "

Guides can be made of seeds, wood, bone, beads, porcelain, stones, crystals, or plastic.

", "

WORK GUIDES AND PROTECTION GUIDES

", "

There are various types of guides. Work guides are used by believers in temples during spiritual work. They are usually received during the Orixá initiation process and help connect the medium with the Entities, as well as protect them during rituals. These guides indicate the levels of initiation a believer has and which guides they carry.

", "

Protection guides are for daily use.

", "

HOW TO CLEAN GUIDES?

", "

Guides should be washed with water from natural sources according to the corresponding Orixá. Since it's difficult to find crystal clear spring water, sea water, or waterfall water in big cities, it is recommended to wash them with mineral water or give them a bath with Amaci, which can be purchased at religious goods stores. Always ask your spiritual guide to clean and energize your guide when you visit a temple.

", "

WHEN TO USE THE GUIDE?

", "

Since a guide is a sacred object, it doesn't need to be worn continuously, especially if it's a work guide. A protection guide can be worn all the time without needing to be exposed. If wearing it around your neck isn't possible for professional or personal reasons, you can put it in a small white pouch (like an amulet) and carry it in your bag, wallet, or pocket.
