  2. It's the #DayOfHermes aka Mercurius Day aka #Wednesday! 🐏

    For #BlackHistoryMonth, I'm introducing African deities in my daily god toots. #Eshu or Èṣù is a personification of mischief. His cognomen He-who-creates-problems-for-the-innocent highlights the complex nature of this highly unpredictable deity. #Èṣù is the messenger not only to Olódùmarè, the Supreme Being, but also to and between the other #Orishas. Despite all this, he is the #Orisha in charge of law enforcement and orderliness.

  7. It's the Day of Ares / Mars' Day / #Tuesday! 🗡️

    For #BlackHistoryMonth, I'm introducing African deities in my daily god toots. In #Yoruba religion, #Ogun is the #Orisha of war and metals. His primary symbols are iron, the dog, and the palm branch. He is said to have cleared a path for the other #Orishas to enter Earth using a metal axe and the assistance of a dog. The Fon people say he was sent to Earth to make it a suitable place for humans to live happily but he hasn't yet finished this task.

  12. It's the #DayOfDionysos here at Erotic Mythology! 🍇

    For #BlackHistoryMonth, I'm introducing African deities in my daily god toots. The deities worshipped in the #Lukumí religion of #Cuba are called #orishas, just like their African counterparts.
    The #Orisha Obatalá was tasked with the creation of humans but he got drunk on palm wine and his creations turned out accordingly. Therefore, anyone born with any birth defect is considered protected by the orisha & a child of Obatalá.

  13. We are almost done with preparing to cross the South Atlantic back to Cape Town. We got our rigging checked and our winches are serviced. We also made an offering to Yemọja and got to experience and celebrate some of the Yoruba religion here in João Pessoa, Brazil.

    We’ll be out at sea from Sunday and won’t be able to get any messages or replies except for via our Garmin InReach so please feel free to follow our progress, check the messages we post and get in touch with us on share.garmin.com/mapshare/svTropicalDawn/
