Orisha Shango

Shango is always seen with a double axe representing justice and symbolizing thunder. He is typically depicted as being surrounded by fire, wearing red and white robes and a crown on his head. He is said to live in a shallow, covered wooden bowl, called a batea which is placed on a pedestal. Beads of red and white known as elekes, are worn to represent his two favorite colors. His axe believed to contain powerful mystical energy, symbolize Shango and his control over thunder and lightning. I call upon this Orisha when im in need of justice and protection .🙏🏼❤️
