She is the force behind self-love and love for the community at large. Oshun is the youngest goddess and is considered one of the most powerful Orishas. She is associated with purity, love, sensuality, fertility, and water: She is the goddess who brings you love in every way – especially the love within yourself. She gazes into the mirror as should you, to appreciate and honor your beauty, inside and out. She is generous and kind, she holds space for love in all its forms and especially loves her daughters who love others freely and compassionately. She helps us celebrate and be aware of all the beauty that life has to offer us. Oshun is a central figure in the creation of humans. She is found in the sweet waters of the world, such as streams and rivers, and is said to have brought life back to humanity with her lovely and fertile waters.
