The World of Esh? and Pomba Gira
Шрифт:
He likes doing good by healing, removing personal black magic works, undoing works or stopping spells. When a negative entity is removed from someone, quiumbas are in charge of taking it to the right place in the astral.
He is a vigilant light entity for all emaciated souls to evolve.
Everyone calls him the astral watchman, a policeman who controls every soul in its right location according to its purification or spiritual elevation.
He controls the Earth’s incarnations, he keeps the incarnations of the spirits of low evolution at bay so that they do not contact us.
As well as attending our calls and requests, he takes the souls of dead people to the place where they belong, he must maintain the order that God has created.
He puts all the temptations within your reach for you to decide what to do with them: you can choose the path for your spiritual ascent. He does not make you be bad, but if you decide to be bad, he can help you. Be careful, he claims for everything and the price for things that are not fair is very high.
We make offerings and we give him light with the candles we use when we ask him for help to solve the problems that bother us. If a person sends us something with bad intentions, he will undo it provided he is well cared for.
He has all the power over doors, crossroads, roads, etc., and with anything that is related with an advance or a step.
Chapter 3 – pomba gira
To talk about Pomba Gira is to continue talking about Eshu, she is a female Eshu. The origin of her name is Bantu de bombogiro. The current name in Quimbanda is Pomba, which means pigeon, and Gira, something that spins. This is a very accurate definition since she is never in the same place, but always returns to the same places, she is restless as a dove and moves very fast. She is Eshu's perfect companion, she is always represented as a very sensual, attractive woman who gives and provides pleasure. Pomba Gira knows all the secrets of love and enjoys using this knowledge.
She is the protector of free women. Women have the full right to choose and seduce the male they choose and Pomba Giras show this by choosing the Eshu they prefer: they have full freedom to move through all fields.
Pomba Gira is another energy that works to provide happiness for those who ask for it, but from a feminine point of view. She will listen to you sooner than Eshu will, but she will also take revenge sooner if you make her angry, since she will behave like a true woman.
Her favourite drink is champagne, but she will accept any sweet drink you find, especially, strawberry-flavoured drinks since it is an aroma Pomba Gira loves.
Cigarettes must be fine and better if they are blond and menthol flavoured tobacco.
Her favourite foods are always expensive foods. She is very capricious but she can afford it, because what people ask her well deserves this sacrifice in offerings.
You can also offer her the same food as Eshu, but she will never drink in china like him but in glass.
She is usually found at crossroads.
She eats raw eggs without breaking them with some dend'e over them.
Dend'e and honey flour is what she likes the most.
Pomba Gira's purpose is love, pleasure and sexual freedom. She will make possible impossible connections.
She is mainly invoked for night business and this is where she is most worshipped. With just one red rose and a glass of the best champagne your business will prosper and you will earn much more money.
Men who want to have a good lover who pleases them do not hesitate to ask her for help. She knows all the secrets of sex and how to attract men to women like flies to manure.
You only have to ask her for help and she will help you. Do not forget, she always asks for something more in return. Not only you should take care of her and thank her with offerings, but you should also be eternally grateful.
Pomba Gira is part of Eshu's organisation chart. She is in one of the two kingdoms of Eshu, in Eshu Kalunga, but she also has her own organisation chart which I will describe next.
The main head is Her Highness Rainha Pomba Gira. You may ask her anything, her power is infinite and she gives everything, but she is too capricious to always give you what you want: if she feels like it, she will listen to you, if not, you will go completely unnoticed.
Rainha Das Encruzilhadas, Rainha Da Lomba, Rainha Da Praia and Rainha Das Ciganos depend on her. Each of these queens is in charge of different phalanxes that obey and follow their orders.
Rainha Das Encruzilhadas is the owner of roads and crossings, of everything that moves and advances. Everything that is born and grows is part of her. She will make you go forward or will paralyse you forever: you will be a puppet in her hands. Her different phalanxes act in the same way, i.e. opening and closing roads. Her phalanxes are:
–Pomba Gira 7 Encruzilhadas
–Pomba Gira 7 Saias
–Pomba Gira 7 Cuores
–Pomba Gira Rozinha
–Pomba Gira Menina
–Pomba Gira Roza
Pomba Gira Rainha Da Lomba is above Pomba Gira Das Encruzilhadas. She sees and observes everything. She is bold, warlike, and fast and protects women above all. She does not like sick or dependent relationships. She likes self-confident but honest women. She also helps women of the streets, who deserve enormous respect. Her phalanxes are:
–Mar'ia Padilla
–Mar'ia Farrapo
–Mar'ia Mulambo
–Mar'ia Quiter'ia
–Mar'ia Mirongueira
–Pomba Gira 7 Cobras
–Pomba Gira 7 Catacumbas
–Pomba Gira Dos Fornos
–Pomba Gira Da Kalunga
–Pomba Gira Das Almas
Pomba Gira Rainha Da Praia is the owner of water and true, clean and pure loves. She removes moorings done to you and she makes people of the opposite sex closer to you, but only those that are worthwhile. Her phalanxes are:
