When a new year approaches, many people tend to look to different sources and beliefs to find out what the energies will be like. 2022 is the year of which orixá? We have prepared a guide on Umbanda and Candomblé predictions, including prayers and baths to promote spiritual cleansing and attract prosperity!

2022 is the year of which orixá?

The year 2022 will be governed by Iemanjá and Exu, combining hope, motivation and dynamism. The deities of Yoruba African mythology became popular in Brazil with the Umbanda and Candomblé religions. They represent men and women with the ability to alter the course of nature.

Iemanjá is known as “queen of the sea”. The idea is to soften the movement of the waters to bring self-confidence and strength to face everyday challenges. The water signs (Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces) will benefit most, being able to take advantage of diplomacy to reverse conflicts. Those of fire (Aries, Leo and Sagittarius) can receive a real test to tame their stubbornness and learn to give in at the best moment.

Exu, the guardian of communication, can provide an additional incentive to believe in one’s own potential and will also favor the connection with the divine. This can give a “boost” to the independence and boldness of the air signs (Gemini, Libra and Aquarius). Earth people (Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn) can feel a boost in their sixth sense.

Water (Iemanjá) brings up emotional issues and fire (Exu) generates hasty actions. Therefore, it is important for everyone to be careful in moments of irritability, looking for healthy ways to deal with stress and feelings.

Iemanjá prayer to make a wish

“Oh sovereign mother of the waters, come to me in this moment of distress, with my faith and devotion I light this candle, (light a blue candle) to illuminate my requests and paths.

Oh mother Iemanjá, just as you control the strength of the waters, come and help me with what I need, (make the request). With her pearly blue mantle, may she cover my life with joy and all those around me and those who think they are my enemies, these sovereign mother, change their thoughts so that they become worthy and remove hatred from their hearts. .

Help resolve what ails me and accompany me on this journey so that evils do not reach me. Oh sovereign mother Iemanja, I thank you in advance, because I have faith that you will be with me. Omio omiodo ya!”

Exu Prayer

“Orixá Exú, you who are the Orixá Regent of the Void, the Vitalizing Orixá, the Exhausting Orixá of human excesses and their vain illusions, help us. We ask the Lord and the Creator Father, Olorum, to guide us so that we do not become empty. Do not allow us to get lost in the duality of life’s moments.

Orixá Exu, do not let spiritual and material disturbances undermine our willpower and free will, nor our will to live.

Orixá Exú, Lord of the Duality that we see in matter, guide us so that we are not seduced by paths that lead us to evolutionary and conscious paralysis of the darkness of ignorance into which we plunge when we become empty of God.

Free us from everything that separates us from Our Creator, and keep Evil away from us. And if we are worthy, may we have peace and prosperity, so that we can carry our burden in this incarnation in a milder way, with the absence of our abyss and negativism, about Your Guard and Protection. Amen.”
