Finally! Sub-Saharan African mythologies have been CRIMINALLY overlooked for the last hundred years! I am so glad that they’re actually getting the recognition it deserves!

Iemanjá , the queen of the ocean , sometimes she seems as mermaid some times as a woman with very long black hair in a blue dress . Her catholic version is Nossa Senhora dos Navegantes, both celebrated on the same day ! Nossa senhora dos navegantes is celebrated on rivers and lakes and Iemanjá at the sea shore. From the north to south every one in the shore will dress in white , jump 7 waves and send gifts to the sea (what I think is a mess) like mirror, comb , perfumes and roses !!! Some food as well , sweets , lots of delicious sweets like quindim , cocada and queijadinha , popcorn and bottles of cachaça (Brazilian alcohol )

Goddesses tend to have this weird connection to water and the ocean it seems...

Yoruba mythology is so beautiful. Thank you for having their stories. Not many channels show Yoruba.

WOW!! We just celebrated her "feast" day this week. She's a big deal in some countries.

The drawings of Yemayá are so pretty and i'm learning about a mythology I'm still so new to. As somebody with a disability these visuals and the clear voice help me a lot to understand better so thank you so much.

As a Nigerian-Egyptian this warms my heart. Thank you!

Yemaya has facets that are comparable to the Taino goddess Atabey. Many religions in the Caribbean still hold both deitys as sacred.
