ORISHA NANAN | NANÃ | NANA

HEALING, COMPASSION, SOULS, ANCESTRAL

Nanan is the ancient fertility wisdom of Grandmother Earth. Her alchemical dance between earth and water created the incredible life force element mud. The powerful mud of Nanan is the raw matter that Oshala used to create Humanity. The swamps and bottoms of lakes are the source of her tremendous healing powers. Nanan dwells in the Life and Death Portal supporting the passage of the souls. She is there with outstretched arms to receive all new souls arriving on Earth, as a caring and loving grandmother. She also helps the souls who are passing away by transmuting karmic memories, as well as finding a blessed destiny in the hands of her son Obaluaê. One, who prays with Nanan, will achieve deep ancestral healing.
