18. Oya

Our Lady of Candlemas (February 2)

Oya "owns" shooting stars and the wind, whether breeze or hurricane. She is violent and impetuous, loves war and accompanies Chango on his campaigns.

Oya also "owns" the cemetery and lives at its door, being the gate of death.

The character of this piece is funereal. It is known as bayuba ka te, "reverently playing to worship".
