"SAVE NANA In the early times the marshes covered almost all the land
were part of the kingdom of Nanã Buruquê and she took care of
everything as good sovereign that was when all the kingdoms were divided
by Olorun and.. delivered to some deities began to enter the fields of
others and many disagreements began to happen. And this time it did this
legend. Ogun needed to reach the other side of a large swamp, there was
serious confusion occurring and their presence was requested with .
urgency then decided to cross the mudflats to not waste time When
starting the journey would be long and painful that he heard behind him a
commanding voice: -.! Get back to your way boy - was Nanã with its
majestic matriarchal figure who brooked no setbacks - To pass through
here has to ask permission -?.. excusing As I am one, need urgent
warrior reach the other side There's an entire people that need me -No
care what you are and your urgency does not concern me . Or excuses or
does not pass. Learn to be aware of what is about to others. Ogun
laughed scornfully: - What an old can do against someone young and
strong as I? I will pass and nothing will stop me! Nanã immediately gave
orders for the mud swallow Ogun to prevent their advance. The mud
stirred and suddenly began to turn into big swirl of water and mud. Ogun
had a hard time getting rid of the immense force that sucked. All his
muscles tensed up with the violence of the collision. Were long minutes
of a suffocating struggle. Broke out, however, failed to advance but
back to shore. From there shouted: -Velha witch, you are strong do not
deny, but also have powers. Fill this clay that flame united with sharp
metal and you do not get through it without their meat is completely
torn. And so he did. The huge swamp turned into a forest of knives and
swords that would not allow the passage of anyone else. From that day on
Nanã abolished their land use metal of any kind. Was furious at losing
part of your domain, but intimately proud of your asset: - Ogun did not
pass! LEGEND OF NANA-02 Nana was the wife of Ogun and held the position of judge in Dahomey. Thought only men, being highly respected by women who were considered goddesses. She lived in a beautiful house with garden. When someone had a complaint about her husband, she tied to a tree and person asked Eguns to scare her. One night Yansan complained of Ogun and he was tied up in the garden. At night, he managed to slip away and went to Ifa. The situation could not continue and so it was agreed that I wish would take away the powers of Nana. He approached and offered her the igbin juice, a type of snail. By drinking the prepared Nanã asleep. Hopefully then dressed as a woman and, imitating the way Nana urged Eguns to go away from your garden forever. When Nana woke up and realized what I wish I had done, forced him to take the same prepared igbin and seduced the Orisha. Would ran and told Ogun that had happened. Outraged, this broke with Nana. And that's why the offerings to Nanã is not used any metal object. Another legend records that, at a meeting, the orishas Ogun hailed as the most important one and that Nanã, not settling for being defeated by him, assumed that no more would use metal utensils created by the warrior Orisha (shields and spears of war , knives and arrows for hunting and fishing). Therefore, she does not accept offerings as they have metal objects. LEGEND OF NANA - 03 Ogun is undoubtedly one of the most popular gods, worshiped and feared more Yoruba. Sometimes even more feared than Exú, on which it has total control. As is the son of Oduduwa and Yemanja, older and considered the oldest Yoruba Orisha, and in virtue of their connection with metals, without your permission and your protection, no activity would be profitable; owns the obé (knife). However other gods older than Ogun, originating from neighboring countries, even assimilated by the Yoruba, not willingly accept the primacy granted and assumed to Ogun, by Oduduwa. These differences were not resolved until today and gave rise to conflicts between Nana and Ogun, this because Nana, the oldest Orisha of the Nation of Dahomey (a kind of Orixalá of Yoruba) does not accept the command of Ogun. Therefore, no animal offered Nanã, could be cut with obé metal but with the wood. LEGEND OF NANA IN VIDEO LEGEND OF NANA - 04 The story of the children of Oxalufã and Nanã Burucu: Legend has it that Oxalufã lived in his kingdom with Nanã Burucu. It was a correct and good but full of chores king. He left Nanã always alone. He then asked Ifa (which represents the future and can be accessed through the shell game) consent to raise a child to keep company with Nana. This was done and the child, called Oxaguiã, was created in the likeness of his father. Instead of making the company Nana's son was in charge of the kingdom and was also full of responsibilities and always representing the father in the wars and ceremonies outside the kingdom. Nanã but once complained of solitude in which he lived and Oxalufã for Contenta it, then asked for permission to create another child. Thus was created without original sin, Omolu he carried the diseases of mankind. Unlike first child, Oxaguiã, which was strong and full of life, Omolu was rickety and all feridento. Nana, this time, she was upset and had no patience to take care of the sick child. She despised him and left him in the sea. It was there, then that Yemanja overtook him, tended his wounds and gave the mother's love that Nana had not. Again, Oxalufã to settle and soothe Nanã and avoid hassles did another child, this time an irresponsible, selfish and dubious character, Eshu, who liked to play pranks and all beings of the kingdom. It was the last straw for Nana who felt humiliated; she left the kingdom and was taking shelter in the kingdom of Shango. Oxalufã by miss consulted the soothsayer who consulted the Ifa she answered that she would not seek Nanã because he could suffer a punishment for disobedience. But he, missing, decided to go to the reign of Shango even disobeying Ifa. He then undertook alone and walk the journey to the reign of Shango in search of Nana, with a cacaio on the shoulders and the paxerô for support. Tired in the middle of the road, stopped to rest when an old man appeared (Eshu was pretending to be old) who asked him to help him in the head by a pot full of palm. Oxalufã, in his infinite goodness, was help him without realizing it was a joke son Eshu. When he least expected it, Eshu turned full palm on Oxalufã pot and left laughing uproariously. Oxalufã tried to clean up as much as he could and continued the journey. Eshu, seeing that he did not give up, made the turn, this time in a beggar and a bag of charcoal. Oxalufã, to see him sitting on a rock by the road, with the huge bag near him and with the appearance of a poor man, once again offered help. When Oxalufã suspended bag, Eshu poured it full of coal dust upon Oxalufã. To see his father every luscious palm oil and coal, Eshu came out laughing and pinotando the road. Coming more forward, Eshu came back down a foot cashew and sat as a beggar, this time very old and with a huge muringa full of rum. Again, for your kindness Oxalufã tried to help the old man who, in turn, to suspend muringa to head for the shed on the head Oxalufã, which again was molasses, rum now. Eshu came back laughing and jumping like crazy. Oxalufã seeing so dirty, she remembered the river passing nearby and went to bathe. Before reaching the river, he saw a white horse that he recognized as Xango, however, unaware that the horse had fled the kingdom of Shango and that, because he was big pet, had ordered his ministers to find him. It was there they found Oxalufã giving the horse water before taking bath. So the ministers exchanged by a highwayman and promptly put him in a cave along the road and locked the exit, so it was made with horse thieves at the time. Returned to reign with the horse and said nothing about the thief Shango. A while later, people began to notice the lack of Oxalufã because this no longer appeared not in his kingdom nor in Xango. So the Orishas, to realize the lack of the father, came in search of him. Iansã with thunder and lightning, with thunder Shango and his white horse, Oshun waterfalls in asking that passed him, and Oxossi Osany in the woods. Anyway, all Orishas of the woods and the air they sought. So seven years passed and the reign of Shango went into calamity and was punished by pests, diseases and other ailments. It was then that one of the ministers remembered and consulted a soothsayer who revealed where he was Oxalufã. You went to seek him and find him, all dirty and broken, brought him to the reign of Shango where, on the steps of the palace, gave a water bath and fragrance and you swapped the putting dirty clothes and clean clothes lily. So, from that day, it was determined that children of Oxalufã wore only white and not eat palm oil or coal or caught in drink rum in the days of Friday. Oxalufã, ao se achar limpo e bem vestido, todo de branco, e ao ver todos os Orixás reunidos na frente na escadarias do palácio de Xangô, fez então a criação de um filho que não era do céu e nem da terra, seis meses era homem, seis meses era mulher; seis meses novo e seis meses velho. Era gente e era cobra, vivia nas águas salgadas, doces e nas matas, era de todas as cores e servia de mensageiro entre o céu e a terra. Ele é chamado de Oxumaré e foi o criado de Xangô ( na terra de Angola ele é chamado de Angorô e na terra da Jêje de Dã ). LENDA DE NANÃ - 05 OLENDA DE NANÃ - 04lorun enviou Nanan e Oxalá para viverem na Terra e criarem a humanidade. Os dois foram dotados de grandes poderes para desempenharem essa tarefa, mas somente Nanan tinha o domínio do reinado dos eguns, e guardava esses segredos, bem como o da geração da vida, em sua cabaça. Oxalá não se conformava com esta situação, queria poder compartilhar desses segredos. Tentava agradar sua companheira com oferendas para convencê-la a revelar seu conhecimento. Nanan, sentindo-se feliz com as atitudes de Oxalá, decide mostrar-lhe egun, mas apenas ela era reconhecida nesse reinado. Certa vez, enquanto Nanan trabalhava com a lama, Oxalá, disfarçando-se com as roupas dela, foi visitar egun, sem lhe pedir autorização. Quando Nanan, sentiu a falta de Oxalá e de sua própria vestimenta, teve certeza de que ele havia invadido o seu reinado, atraiçoando-a gravemente. Enfurecida com a descoberta, resolveu fechar a passagem do mundo proibido, deixando Oxalá preso. Enquanto isso, Oxalá caminhava no reinado de Nanan, tentando descobrir seus mistérios, mas apenas ela conseguia comunicar-se com os eguns. Egun, sempre envolto em seus panos coloridos, não tinha rosto, nem voz. Oxalá, usando um pedaço de carvão, criou um rosto para ele, como já havia feito com os seres humanos, e, com seu sopro divino, abriu-lhe a fala. Assim, ele conseguiu desvendar os segredos que tanto queria, mas, quando se deu conta, viu que não conseguia achar a saída. Nanan não sabia o que fazer, por isso fechou a passagem para mantê-lo preso até encontrar uma forma de castigá-lo. Contou a Olorun sobre a traição de Oxalá, que não aprovou a atitude de ambos. Nanan errou ao revelar a Oxalá os segredos que o próprio Olorun lhe confiara. Para castigá-la, tomou o seu reinado e o entregou a Oxalá, pois ele desempenhara melhor a tarefa de zelar pelo eguns. Oxalá também foi castigado, pois invadiu o domínio de um outro orixá. Daquele dia em diante, Oxalá seria obrigado a usar as roupas brancas de Nanan, cobrindo o seu rosto com um chorão, que somente as iyabás usam. LENDA DE NANÃ - 04 Disputa entre NANÃ BURUKU e OGUM Nanã Buruku é uma velhíssima divindade das águas, vinda de muito longe e há muito tempo. Ogum é um poderoso chefe guerreiro que anda, sempre, à frente dos outros Imalés. Eles vão, um dia, a uma reunião. É a reunião dos duzentos Imalés da direita e dos quatrocentos Imalés da esquerda. Eles discutem sobre seus poderes. Eles falam muito sobre obatalá, aquele que criou os seres humanos. Eles falam sobre Orunmilá, o senhor do destino dos homens. Eles falam sobre Exú: "Ah! É um importante mensageiro!" Eles falam muita coisa a respeito de Ogum. Eles dizem: "É graças a seus instrumentos que nós podemos viver. Declaramos que é o mais importante entre nós!" Nanã Buruku contesta então: "Não digam isto. Que importância tem, então, os trabalhos que ele realiza?" Os demais orixás respondem: "É graças a seus instrumentos que trabalhamos pelo nosso alimento. É graças a seus instrumentos que cultivamos os campos. São eles que utilizamos para esquartejar." Nanã conclui que não renderá homenagem a Ogum. "Por que não haverá um outro Imalé mais importante?" Ogum diz: "Ah! Ah! Considerando que todos os outros Imalés me rendem homenagem, me parece justo, Nanã, que você também o faça." Nanã responde que não reconhece sua superioridade. Ambos discutem assim por muito tempo. Ogum perguntando: "Voce pretende que eu não seja indispensável?" Nanã garatindo que isto ela podia afirmar dez vezes. Ogum diz então: "Muito bem! Você vai saber que eu sou indispensável para todas as coisas." Nanã, por sua vez, declara que, a partir daquele dia, ela não utilizará absolutamente nada fabricado por Ogum e poderá, ainda assim, tudo realizar. Ogum questiona: "Como você fará? Você não sabe que sou o proprietário de todos os metais? Estanho, chumbo, ferro, cobre. Eu os possuo todos." Os filhos de Nanã eram caçadores. Para matar um animal, eles passaram a se servir de um pedaço de pau, afiado em forma de faca, para o esquartejar. Os animais oferecidos a Nanã são mortos e decepados com instrumentos de madeira. Não pode ser utilizada a faca de metal para cortar sua carne, por causa da disputa que, desde aquele dia, opôs Ogum a Nanã. LENDA DE NANÃ - 06 Nanã era rainha de um povo e tinha poder sobre os mortos. Para roubar esse poder, Oxalá casou com ela, mas não ligava para a mulher. Então, Nanã fez um feitiço para ter um filho. Tudo aconteceu como ela queria mas, por causa do feitiço, o filho (Omolu ) nasceu todo deformado; horrorizada, Nanã jogou-o no mar para que morresse. Como castigo pela crueldade, quando Nanã engravidou de novo, Orumilá disse que o filho seria lindo mas se afastaria dela para correr mundo. E nasceu Oxumaré, que durante 6 meses vive no céu como o arco-íris, e nos outros 6 é uma cobra que se arrasta no chão. LENDA DE NANÃ - 07 Na aldeia chefiada por Nanã, quando alguém cometia um crime, era amarrado a uma árvore e então Nanã chamava os Eguns para assustá-lo. Ambicionando esse poder, Oxalá foi visitar Nanã e deu-lhe uma poção que fez com que ela se apaixonasse por ele. Nanã dividiu o reino com ele, mas proibiu sua entrada no Jardim dos Eguns. Mas Oxalá espionou-a e aprendeu o ritual de invocação dos mortos. Depois, disfarçando-se de mulher com as roupas de Nanã, foi ao jardim e ordenou aos Eguns que obedecessem "ao homem que vivia com ela "(ele mesmo). Quando Nanã descobriu o golpe, quis reagir mas, como estava apaixonada, acabou aceitando deixar o poder com o marido. LENDA DE NANÃ - 08 Certa vez, os Orixás se reuniram e começaram a discutir qual deles seria o mais importante. A maioria apontava Ogum, considerando que ele é o Orixá do ferro, que deu à humanidade o conhecimento sobre o preparo e uso das armas de guerra, dos instrumentos para agricultura, caça e pesca, e das facas para uso doméstico e ritual. Somente Nanã discordou e, para provar que Ogum não é tão importante assim, torceu com as próprias mãos os animais destinados ao sacrifício em seu ritual. É por isso que os sacrifícios para Nanã não podem ser feitos com instrumentos de metal. LENDA DE NANÃ - 09 Conta a lenda que Nanã só julgava os homens, pois ela colocava as mulheres acima do julgamento humano. Ela plantou um jardim e quando uma mulher reclamava de seu homem, ela o pendurava em uma árvore e chamava os Eguns, espíritos desencarnados, para assustá-lo. Os Orixás estavam revoltados. Então Ogum pediu a Oxalá para ir dominar Nanã. Ele enfeitiçou Nanã e fez com que mostrasse seu jardim. Nanã adormeceu e Oxalá vestiu-se de mulher, fugindo dos Eguns. Nanã acordou e foi atrás de Oxalá, enfeitiçando-o e seduzindo para sempre o Orixá maior. Dessa união nasceu Oxumaré, o arco-íris e também Iroko e Omulu. LENDA DE NANÃ - 10 Conta-se que Oxalá se ia casar com Nanã, mas um dia ele foi à praia e na beira do mar encontrou Yemanjá. Essa Orixá, muito linda e envolvente, seduziu Oxalá, que ficou em sua companhia. Nanã sofreu muito quando Oxalá voltou e lhe contou que não podia viver sem Yemanjá, mas ele também disse a Nanã que ainda a amava. Ela não se queixou e deixou o noivo ir. Yemanjá é enganadora, fingida e fez muitas a Oxalá, até que ele não quiz mais saber dela e voltou para Nanã. Arrependido, ele disse que o mar lhe chamava, mas era no barro que estava o seu céu. Nanã perdoou a Oxalá e também a Yemanjá. LENDA DE NANÃ - 11 Dizem que quando Olorum encarregou Oxalá de fazer o mundo e modelar o ser humano, o òrìsà tentou vários caminhos. Tentou fazer o homem de ar, como ele. Não deu certo, pois o homem logo se desvaneceu. Tentou fazer de pau, mas a criatura ficou dura. De pedra, mas ainda a tentativa foi pior. Fez de fogo e o homem se consumiu. Tentou azeite, água e até vinho de palma, e nada. Foi então que Nanã veio em seu socorro e deu a Oxalá a lama, o barro do fundo da lagoa onde morava ela, a lama sob as águas, que é Nanã. Oxalá criou o homem, o modelou no barro. Com o sopro de Olorum ele caminhou. Com a ajuda dos òrìsà povoou a Terra. Mas tem um dia que o homem tem que morrer. O seu corpo tem que voltar à terra, voltar à natureza de Nanã. Nanã deu a matéria no começo mas quer de volta no final tudo o que é seu. LENDA DE NANÃ - 12 Nanã é a deusa das chuvas, senhora da morte, e responsável pelo portais de entrada (reencarnação) e saída (desencarne). Em sua passagem pela Terra, foi a primeira iabá e a mais vaidosa, em nome da qual desprezou seu filho primogênito com Oxalá, Omulu, por ter nascido com várias doenças de pele. Não admitindo cuidar de uma criança assim, acabou abandonando-o no pântano. Sabendo disso, Oxalá condenou-a a ter mais filhos, os quais nasceriam anormais (Oxumaré, Ewá e Ossayn), e a baniu do reino, ordenando-lhe que fosse viver no mesmo lugar onde abandonou seu pobre filho, no pântano. Nanã tornou-se uma das yabás mais temidas, tanto que em algumas tribos quando seu nome era pronunciado todos se jogavam ao chão. Senhora das doenças cancerígenas, está sempre ao lado do seu filho Omulu. Protectora dos idosos, desabrigados, doentes e deficientes visuais. LENDA DE NANÃ - 13 Nanan Buruku é a divindade das águas, a mais antiga de todas, muito velha e arredia, dona das águas paradas, das lagoas e dos pântanos. Certa feita, numa reunião com todos os Imalés, falou-se muito sobre Obatalá, aquele que criou os homens, sobre Orunmyilá, o dono do destino dos seres humanos. Sobre Exu disseram que era um importante mensageiro, e sobre Ogun, que era o mais importante de todos, que era o dono do ferro e dos metais e que sem as ferramentas que ele fazia era impossível plantar, colher, construir ou fazer a guerra. Todos o reverenciaram, menos Nanan Buruku. Ela se dispôs a provar que não precisava dos metais. Com as madeiras mais duras da floresta fez cavadeiras para semear e cavar; para caçar, fez flechas de caniço e osso; para cozinhar, panelas de barro; para guerrear, lanças e clavas, facas de bambu e escudos de couro de rinoceronte. É por isso que não se usam objectos de metal para matar os animais oferecidos a Nanan Buruku." |

The celebration has both Catholic calendar date, as in african
religions. Before the blue curtain of the altar are open and the feast
begins, the father and head of the holy temple, Orlando Mongelli, 85,
summed up what was to follow. "We've put together what is best in the
center garnish around to honor.'re Children, like colors," he explains.
Once a year the house opens its doors on Sundays, the last weekend of
September for a specific programming to small honoring deities Ibejis,
love and joy, syncretized in Cosmas and Damian. "They are doctors, are
healing. Sons of Yemanja and protecting children. Today worship the health of children and the beauty of it, to free them from these evils being committed ", reinforces Orlando.
In the hall, the wooden benches are already taken by families, parents
and grandparents with small this time have full attention to the
balloons. Before the opening, saw skywalk corridors of play, but nothing
lacking with respect. Are shouts of joy and laughter, who feels very
well there.
To present the history,
artists take center stage. Cosmas and Damian are represented by Tamara
Prantl and Peter Lara, the troupe Bobos of the Commons, that explain who
the holy brethren. "Twin brothers, born around 260 after the Christ"
exhibit. Noble family, Cosme is entitled the "best doctor that ever
existed and also very popular. Hi, okay?" welcomes the audience. Already
Damiano takes voice to say that is a pharmacist and "too fancy."
Together, the actors who are also mediums of the house, the pair have
not charged anything for the services rendered. What was the name of
Jesus Christ, which later caused the wrath of the Emperor Diocletian.
Persecuted, there were several attempts to take their lives, until they
become martyrs to be beheaded. "Their names are pronounced countless
times and worldwide. Considered patron of doctors, nurses and the
simplicity and purity, protectors of children," declaim together. At the
sound of "Viva Saints Cosmas and Damian," they give a taste of the
curtain hiding.
The ritual -

The curtain opens and the eyes of small and also the big boys, the
colorful spreads further. Kites on the wall, the ceiling hung carts,
figures of boys and girls everywhere. It is time for adults turn
children.
By the rhythm of the conga drum, is visible transformation. At this point, as explained Side B,
mediums receive spirits of children up to seven years, which justifies
the jokes, laughter and applause that they present to the public.
Transformed from child to child pass will be given.
Sitting in a circle the altar, the transformation scene does not scare
the little ones. Will is such to get close, to receive the pass and
sweet they are clustered at the opening. A contagious shoving, who does
not want to fight, but only to secure your space.
In
garments, the mediums already wore blue ribbons or pink, depending on
gender, to receive toys and candies, fruit donation public, are even
happier. The reaction also cause astonishment in those who never saw a
scene that. "Uai? But look, they saw the same children!" Exclaimed the time across a lady by my side. She declined to give an interview , said he was there only out of curiosity.
A row of adults and children towards the pass is formed. One by one,
the little ones will enter and if necessary, accompanied by family
members. The mediums talk, give the pass and output, each leads to the
house, cake, sweets in general, guarana and even toys.
Retired Catia Correa brought the granddaughter Julia, age 6, to join
the party for the first time. "I felt beautiful, children playing, a
coming. Entity have no knowledge of spiritualism, but the ritual was

THE LINE OF UMBANDA
Lines of Umbanda
Umbanda is practiced in most temples of Umbanda is divided into 7 lines . These lines are divided into phalanxes and legions of workers who are actually vibrational fields that act Orishas . In the division of the phalanges , the emanations of Catholic saints are also very active .
The division lines of Umbanda , as well as to the orishas consecrated colors , differ from one temple to another and from one state to another in Brazil . This, however , is not important . The important thing is to distinguish the lines do not mix them .
The differences are due to the fact that slaves were sold in lots of different nationalities , which somehow prevented them socializing and prevented his time , the leakage of the slave quarters , for this reason and because of the diversity of African nations who arrived colonial Brazil and forms of worship the Orishas is that the divergences occur .
African line
The spiritual mentor of St. Benedict the African Line is considered in many nations of old black , like the king of the old black . St. Benedict is certainly one of the most popular saints in Brazil . The devotion to St. Benedict was brought by the Portuguese . Born in São Philadelphus , in Sicily , was the son of freed slaves and was a Sicilian teacher, known as Manasseri . St. Benedict is also known as the Holy Moor due to its Muslim origin . The basic constitution of this line is formed by spirits that manifest in the appearance of an old , known as Old Black .
African nations that came to Brazil was born Candomblé and other cults as was also formed on the astral plane Umbanda , which has African origins . The spirits who came to Brazil as slaves brought with them the mission to train the country 's religion that we embrace . Unfortunately , some passed their teachings to people who used these skills erroneously , which led to what is now known misrepresentation . As we know , the waves of slaves came not only commoners , also came the kings , princes and wizards . Wizards , connoisseurs of ancient African magic , used their expertise to form a very negative way what is today known as Quimbanda . The old black knowledgeable about the systems working Quimbanda and infiltrate these works in order to disturb them or minimize them effect.
The Old Black are the founders of our country in Umbanda Umbanda There follower who does not recognize the immense wisdom they possess and their power to ease pain of any kind . Are knowledgeable of the processes of magic , plants that heal , local in nature that emit or reflect strong astral vibrations and foremost , " are entities a unique kindness ."
In consultation processes that occur in our temples , the old black is like a psychiatrist , which absorbs endless sorrows and pains of people looking for and address them the answers to your questions , leading people toward understanding and a better life .
The Old Black owe much , we owe them an understanding of the meaning of devotion to all that we learn to do within Umbanda , but above all , teach us respect for things Santas .
.
Nucleus Umbanda San Sebastian , the cult lines obey the following division :
Line - Holy syncretized - corresponding color
Hopefully - Jesus Christ - White
Ogun - St. George - Red
Yemanja - Our Lady of the Conception - Light Blue
Oxossi - San Sebasitão - Green
Shango - St. Jerome - Brown
African - St. Benedict - White and Black
East - St. John the Baptist - Gold
These lines are divided into seven or phalanges and these legions turn on seven and so forth. There are allegations that these lines are divided by 49 times , but we can not affirm this thesis.
These subdivisions , other Orishas are incorporated , which in turn are leading other phalanges or divisions , as an example ; Inhansã Line of Shango , Oshun on line Yemanja , Omulú and Ibeji Line Oxala .
Umbanda religious syncretism ( 1 ) is very strong , being practically impossible to separate the Orisha of the holy Catholic and a Catholic saint in this situation may even be worshiped as an Orisha , Orisha but one will never be worshiped as a Catholic saint .
( 1 ) Religious syncretism - philosophical or religious system that tends to merge into one several different doctrines .
All lines of Umbanda are active in the fight against evil , whether evil is generated by witchcraft or not . Line workers Umbanda intrude in places where evil is practiced , nullifying or mitigating the impact of malignant fumes originated there .
" Umbanda is unbeatable in the fight against evil !"
If one of the guides of the Umbanda , come across something he did not have sufficient knowledge to tackle , he will seek help and knowledge workers with the spirits of the other lines , thereby forming an unbeatable legion.
Hopefully Line
The line I wish Umbanda is headed by Jesus Christ and for her converge all other lines and their orishas , as well as all workers in Umbanda spirits since syncretism Hopefully - Jesus Christ is perfect .
In the division of the phalanges of this line , a large number of Catholic saints is present at the head of these phalanges , we learned that this line are included Saints Cosmas and Damian , Saint Expedit , a large number of Catholic saints who had never heard even speak and also orisha Omulú .
All Mestizos , Blacks Old , Children, the Baianos the Cattle Dogs , Sailors and Lexus of Tronqueira show great obedience to this line .
Of all the Old Black workers are demonstrating fierce devotion to Jesus Christ , followed by the other workers of Umbanda .
The line is mainly Hopefully a line of healing, is proved by inexplicable events that effect , attributed mainly to Old Black and their mirongas ( knowledge ) , where highly positive results are achieved by them through their work and home remedies .
Thus the Umbanda followers of Jesus Christ has a tremendous devotion and deep respect .
Some ignorant in our practices , developed rituals of consecration to this line of offerings and rely on foods and drinks, as I wish Jesus had or hunger or thirst , and in severe cases , make the sacrifice of white pigeon to please him .
Who work in that way , although it is not umbandista that is . Those who act like this are those who were seeking knowledge outside of Umbanda , adopting tenets of other cults such as Candomblé or Quimbanda and from that point the misrepresentation has occurred .
The true medium of Umbanda rejects these practices , having learned from the guides of the Umbanda that these procedures are incorrect .
The line passes Hopefully basically three assumptions :
Faith in God our Father
Charity to all beings of creation.
The brotherhood to all men .
Line Iemanjá
Of Yemanja line provide the famous mermaids and Oxuns , discharging the yards and people who come to our temples , fluidly cleaning the environment of the temples and the people who attend there.
The Mestizos and Blacks Old evoke the working of Yemanja line with great frequency . The line evokes the Sailors to a lesser extent , but the evocation also occurs on their part .
Mermaids are elemental beings ( 1 ) also known as undines . We've seen some waters , were small , with different shapes and sizes of a medium sized fish , but with hair.
( 1 ) Elementals - Elementals are energetic life forms that inhabit the four elements of nature . Energy and their bodies are constituted of the same element to which they belong .
Are pure beings and have no discernment between good and evil, and can be manipulated by clever human mind and this situation shall meet appeals and desires .
Are widely used in the work environment by the guides of the Umbanda , who can through them highly beneficial results to people seeking them.
Earth Element - Gnomes and Elves .
Element Air - Sylphs
Fire Element - Salamanders
Water Element - Ondinas
The line of Yemanja is an essentially pure line and widely invoked and used by the guides in Umbanda discharge bewitched or persons charged with negative energies .
In the division of the phalanges of Yemanja line, there is a phalanx of sirens headed by Mama Oshun .
Sent its known as " oxuns " when evoked by Umbanda guides , resemble those specific persons for them and the discharge of negative influences or bewitching loads .
Line Oxossi
The line Oxossi is famous for being the line of the great majority of Mestizos . Oxossi Umbanda is known as the master of the forest and all the Mestizos . This line provide a force of great power that emanates directly from Oxossi .
The Mestizos , its sent to our physical plane , are today known as hunters and catechizers souls . Them emanate the feeling and strength to fight and overcome any situation .
The Old Black Oxossi also evoke in their work in the yards and use these same energies in their work .
The vast majority of workers Oxossi line is formed by our Indians , such as Tupi , the Guarani , the Tapuias , the Xavante , the Caetés , some nations of North American Indians and Africans also warriors . All great warriors who fight and crumbles works of sorcery and negative magic.
Sent from Oshun have two characteristics :
Sing when the environment or a person is well .
Mourn with the opposite .
Line Shango
The line consists of Shango by a large number of Mestizos , Old Black Men and people who had functions related to law and its applications , such as judges and lawyers . The line of Shango is responsible for justice in every aspect that can be applied.
The laws for Shango , always divine and immutable , are always applied to all of us , whether we like it or not , accept it or not . In line Shango , the Old Black have great performance . A phalanx of Shango line is known as " the black phalanx " and is headed by a Preto Velho known as " Quenguelê " .
Shango always punish the transgressors of charity and will always do justice to the wronged . Do not play with Xango, Shango is because the seriousness in person , intolerant of errors of any kind . Be wise!
Yemanja , Oshun and its mermaids are respeitadissimas in umbandista environment.
.
Based on these assumptions we can reason and observe the absurdities committed in the name of Jesus and Umbanda .
Line Ogun
The line of Ogun dispenses many comments , he is responsible for maintaining law and order in the astral world and not just in the Umbanda cults or in afros .
The division of the phalanges of Ogun differ greatly from one yard to another, but that fact does not matter , the importâcia lies directly in fact directly combat phalanx of evil is in the temple that is .
The line of Ogun has a mentor and that mentor is not St George and yes, St. Michael ( the Archangel ) in umbandista environment known as the Law of Ogun
With St. George syncretism with Ogun in southern and southeastern Brazil occurs . How I wish the line , all workers of Umbanda Ogun have tremendous respect for and obedience and his warriors are unbeatable in combating evil.
Do not know encruza tail , quiumba or any other evil spirit who do not comply .
Workers from the Ogun line were usually warriors or military , as Roman legionaries , the knights of the Crusades, the Knights Templar , Saracens and many others.
Comparatively , Ogun Umbanda is the same as the police is for the people , if the situation threatens to spiral out of control or if we feel threatened , he will act bringing and keeping order .
Ogun is respected in the Umbanda cults .
.
.
"Humans coexist amid a crowd of other beings ( animals included al .) Human activities influence and direct the happiness of all .
Assist man in proper adjustment of these influences is the goal of
Guides of the Umbanda " !

| Linhas da Umbanda |
A Umbanda que é praticada na maioria dos templos de Umbanda é dividida em 7 linhas. Essas linhas subdividem-se em falanges ou legiões de trabalhadores, que na realidade são campos vibratórios em que agem os Orixás. Na divisão das falanges, as emanações dos santos católicos são também muito atuantes. A divisão das linhas da Umbanda, bem como as cores consagradas aos Orixás, divergem de um templo para outro e de um Estado para outro do Brasil. Isso, no entanto, não é importante. O importante é distinguir as linhas para não misturá-las. As divergências ocorrem devido ao fato de os escravos terem sido vendidos em lotes de diferentes nacionalidades, o que de certa forma, lhes impedia a confraternização e impedia a seu tempo, as fugas das senzalas, por essa razão e devido diversidade das nações africanas que chegaram ao Brasil colonial e as formas de cultuar ao Orixás é que ocorrerem as divergencias.
.
No Núcleo Umbandista São Sebastião, as linhas cultuadas obedecem a seguinte divisão:
Linha - Santo sincretizado - Cor correspondente Oxalá - Jesus Cristo - Branca Ogum - São Jorge - Vermelha Iemanjá - N. Sra. da Conceição - Azul claro Oxossi - São Sebasitão - Verde Xangô - São Jerônimo - Marrom Africana - São Benedito - Branco e Preto Oriente - São João Batista - Dourado
Essas linhas se subdividem em mais sete falanges ou legiões e essas por sua vez, em mais sete e assim sucessivamente. Existem alegações de que essas linhas se subdividem por 49 vezes, mas não temos como afirmar essa tese.
Nessas subdivisões, outros Orixás são incorporados, os quais chefiam por sua vez outras falanges ou divisões, como exemplo; Inhansã na Linha de Xangô, Oxum na Linha de Iemanjá, Omulú e Ibeji na Linha de Oxalá. Na Umbanda o sincretismo religioso(1) é muito forte, sendo praticamente impossivel separar o Orixá do santo católico e nessa situação um santo católico pode até ser cultuado como um Orixá, mas um Orixá nunca será cultuado como um santo católico. (1) Sincretismo religioso - Sistema filosófico ou religioso que tende a fundir numa só várias doutrinas diferentes. Todas as linhas da Umbanda são atuantes no combate ao mal, não importando se o mal é gerado por feitiçarias ou não. Os trabalhadores das linhas da Umbanda intrometem-se nos locais onde o mal é praticado, anulando ou amenizando o impacto das emanações malignas lá originadas. "A Umbanda é imbatível no combate ao mal"! Se um dos guias da Umbanda, se deparar com algo que ele não tenha conhecimentos suficientes para debelar, ele procurará auxilio e conhecimentos junto aos espiritos trabalhadores das outras linhas, formando desta forma uma legião imbatível.
"Os seres humanos coexistem em meio a uma multidão de outros seres (ai incluidos os animais). As ações do homem influenciam e direcionam a felicidade de todos.
Auxiliar o homem no ajuste correto dessas influencias é o objetivo dos Guias da Umbanda"!
