Wisdom of Ossaim

Ritual Precepts with the Leaf

*"Kó s'ewé, kó s'òrìṣà"*: Without leaf there is no Orixá. Every plant is sacred and requires respect with the axé:

  • ✓ Hot ritual bath of strength: always from the neck down, protecting the ori.
  • ✓ Ask permission from Ossaim and the guardians of the forest before handling or boiling.
  • ✓ Always discard on clean earth, a garden, or a pot. Never in common trash.
The axé of the leaf responds to the intention and the reverence of the heart of the one who prepares it.

Historical Root & Tradition

Jaborandi in Brazilian Ancestral Wisdom

Jaborandi is an Amazonian plant whose active principle, pilocarpine, is used in ophthalmological medicine to this day. In terreiros, it took on the function of caring for the head, in both a physical and spiritual sense.

In the traditional garrafadas of Central Brazil, the raizeiro masters recognized in the knotted shape of the root the living metaphor of firmeza: the capacity to tie knots in adversity and remain standing even in arid lands.
