What is Exu Tiriri? Lonan, Calunga, characteristic of the children and more!

You don’t have to be religious to have heard about Exu. Although some people are prejudiced against this entity, it is far from evil and bad things. For those who don’t know, Exu Tiriri is an extremely righteous entity, because nothing passes before his eyes and he walks side by side with the truth.

You need to know that justice will be charged every time the matter involves Exu Tiriri. He is always on the side of those who suffer injustice and oppression. Also, he is well known for breaking demands, spells and ridding people of all evil and negativism.

However, Exu Tiriri is not just about that. There is a lot about him that many are unaware of. Thinking about it, we decided to tell the true story about one of Umbanda’s best known entities. Thus, people can set aside any and all types of prejudices. Shall we check? So come with me!

When we talk about the Exus, it is normal for some doubts to arise, such as, for example, if there is more than one Exu and which orisha he works for. There is a big difference between entity, phalanges and orixás.

That said, it’s only fair that you know the difference between each of them and really understand the Exus. Check out everything about the exus, their phalanges and Exu Tiriri below!


Much is said about exu and little is known about its true history. Different from what many unfortunately believe, exus are not tied to evil things. They come to Earth in order to work the left line of religion and help those most in need.

In this way, some works and/or spells are too dense for the entities on the right and, therefore, they are under the care of the entities on the left. The brothers on the left, therefore, are responsible for undoing any spell, breaking demands and removing negativity.

Therefore, although exus act on the ”negative side”, they do everything for the sake of Light, justice and truth.


Many people do not know how to conceptualize what phalanges are. For those who don’t know, the phalanges are like missionaries who act on behalf of an Orisha. Among the Exus, there are the phalanges, that is, a group of apostles who work for a certain energy or force. In the phalanges of Exu, there are Exus Caveiras, Exus Tranca-Ruas, Exus Tiriris and many others.


Although it is common to rate the Exus as evil and evil beings, that is not how things work. Exus work on the left side of religion, but fight evil. That is, due to the fact that some jobs demand much more than the missionaries of the right can offer, the exus work with the intention of helping.

In general, they are known for breaking demands and giving people back what was taken from them. Of course, it happens that people go to the terreiro and ask for evil and bad things, but this should not define the entity that will carry out (if carried out) the work.

In the case of Exu Tiriri, also known as the Lord of Clairvoyance, he is the head of the legion of exus, largely responsible for fighting evil and acting in other lines of Umbanda or even Candomblé.


In addition to working in the Legion of Sevens, that is, Seven Catacombs, Seven Skulls and Seven Crossroads, Exu Tiriri also works in the Seven Divine Irradiations. He is responsible for strengthening order and righteousness in the seven senses of life.

That is, he opens the way for those who deserve it and is able to heal those who suffer from an evil, especially if the evil is affected due to some revenge.


Mistério Tiriri is a group that works under the command of Ogun and, therefore, the original vibration of these missionaries is that of vitalizing the radiation of Law and Order. The guardians who work within this Line, be it in Umbanda or Candomblé, seek to order the negativism in their consultants, opening the paths and breaking the demands.


It is common for people to want to know the main characteristics of entities in order to be able to recognize them when they come ashore. In the case of Exu Tiriri, his most striking feature is the fact that he presents himself with a mysterious and serious air.

It is not common to see Exu Tiriri dancing or exposing himself with other people. Furthermore, Exu Tiriri does not like lies. Therefore, there is no point in thinking that he will be able to deceive you, as this will be a great illusion.


In relation to the children of Exu Tiriri, they are not far behind, as they also carry the strong characteristics of their father. In general, the children of Tiriri have a very keen sense of foreboding, that is, they are able to sense a malicious person even from afar. They can sense bad vibes just by the tone of someone’s voice.

Furthermore, these same people hate lying and choose to stay away from lying people. Usually, they are always away from negative people and environments.


Exu Tiriri is recognized due to his black cape on the outside and red on the inside, a brimmed hat that is usually also black and he is always carrying a staff or trident in his hands. Apart from the physical characteristics, such as the serious face and the air of mystery that only exus have.


Normally, when Exu Tiriri is working, it is common to see him with strong drinks in his hands, such as whiskey, or another drink of the same quality. It’s fair to point out that he uses the drink to help him clean and unload the consultant. You will never see Exu Tiriri using the drink to get drunk or to get the medium he works with drunk.


For people who are interested in offering a favor to Exu Tiriri, the crossroads are indicated, especially those on land and those on the railways. However, this is neither an order nor an absolute truth. Some offerings can also be delivered to quarries, waterfalls or an open field. This will depend on the GM’s preference.


Exu Tiriri is also responsible for cleaning consultants and environments. Usually, when someone or some place is overloaded with negative energies, guardians are ordered to come ashore and help purify those people and places.

In the case of Exu Tiriri, he uses the cigar to accomplish this mission. When he smokes and blows the smoke into the air, he cleans everything and everyone that needs cleaning.

Little is known, however, within the family of Exus there are a variety of legends that bear different names, such as Senhor Tiriri das Sete Encruzilhadas. Even if you are not an expert in religion, it is quite possible that you have heard of this name.

Although Exu Tiriri Lonan looks like another entity, he is the same Exu Tiriri with a different nomenclature. It is possible that you will find this name during some searches.

The peasant lord was taken to the dungeon and stayed there for many years. He went through some difficulties, he had to deal with hunger, thirst and torture. This experience made him become a charitable and angry person. Today, he works with the Umbanda lineages in order to cure curses and combat evil done out of revenge.

Exu Tiriri Menino’s message was taken from the book “o Return of a teenager”. It is a very important message for human beings in general, not just for those connected with religion. Exu Tiriri says that evil is within each one of us and it is up to us to be able to fight against it.

Regardless of whether we are inside a church, a spiritist center or a terreiro, invoking the name of God in vain is extremely wrong. There is no point in invoking him in these places and, when leaving, speaking ill of others, acting in bad faith with a brother.

People usually look for the Exus – and other guardians – asking for evil. That said, who are the bad guys then, the guardians of the Law or who went to plant and disseminate things…
