If someone gives me a gift that I think is awesome and that I just love, then I am really pleased, and might just go out of my way next time to help them out. I mean, when someone gives me a gift, I appreciate their good will.
Don't go giving wine to a Goddess of temperence, you know? But do learn what they like and how to offer it to them. Be respectful and learn how they like to be approached. My thought is this - the Gods like to be fed. I also have given respects to Legba, Oya, and Shango in the past. Oshun is a Goddess to whom I am particularly close, as I am a dancer and generally a sensual wench all around. I've worked with Yemaya a lot, although she is not my primary Lady.

I just don't want to be disrespectful towards them. If anyone has experience worshiping orishas in a non-ATR framework, I'd appreciate it. Also, the orishas are called down and possess their devotees in Santeria.would they even bother to answer if they were simply invited into a circle? As far as I can remember, orishas aren't considered gods in Santeria, probably due to the syncretism (I don't know their status in Yorubaland, but are the orishas of Afrika really the same as those of Cuba?). There's just a few things I'm not sure of:ġ. I already know a lot of the things they like and could easily involve them in ritual.not sure what I'd do if one of them asked for a chicken, though, lol.
I feel really comfortable with Chango and Yemaya has always felt like a mother figure to me.
Chango still sticks out in my mind, though, as does Yemaya, and I started to wonder tonight if they could be my Matron and Patron. I've been reading a lot and just sorta thinking about which deities I'd like to have as my Matron and Patron.not making any decisions, just studying mythology and learning. I finally stumbled onto some Wiccan sources who actually sound like reasonable, sane people and suddenly it's starting to make sense. Up until recently, Wicca has always felt a little silly to me.maybe I was reading the wrong books or something.I thought it was a lot of talking to fairies and frolicking under the full moon. Well, a few things changed and I decided Santeria just isn't for me. I was involved with Santeria a few years ago, received my warriors and had my head marked by Chango.
