omen
Ossain is one of the most important deities of African matrix religions, especially in Candomblé and Santería. Known as the Lord of plants, medicinal herbs and the secrets of the forest, he has the knowledge of the healing and magical properties of all leaves. Its figure is essential for religious rituals, as no initiation or preparation ceremony is performed without their axé (life force). Considered a lonely and mysterious orisha, Ossain lives in the woods, away from the villages, and is represented as a being with unique physical characteristics, such as one eye, an arm and one leg. His dominion over nature makes him a guardian of the secrets of healing and magic, being revered by priests and adherents of Afro-Brazilian and Afro-Cuban traditions. Its influence extends from the amulet preparation rituals to the most complex ceremonies, making it an indispensable figure in the Pantheon of the Orixás.
