9. OBATALA

Our Lady of Mercy (September 24)
Obatala created the earth and made humanity. His purity gives him power over all that is white. He also has power over the head, its thoughts and dreams.
Obatala is respected by all the Orishas. They seek him out to negotiate arguments. He does not like nudity or crude phrases.
This piece is known as jekua baba, "yes, wonderful father".
