Many people, regardless of religion or belief, believe in the power of the image of Saint George, whose memory is celebrated every April 23. What many people are unaware of is that the saint was a Roman priest and soldier, venerated as christian martyr🇧🇷 Before being recognized as a saint by the Catholic Church, and as a warrior of iron and forests by Candomblé, Jorge traveled to distant lands and fought ardently in defense of his faith.
The beginning of its popularity occurred at the height of the persecution of Christians by the Roman emperor Deocletian – the end of the 3rd century, when the daring warrior began to defend Christianity with great faith. The image of Saint George is represented by a young man dressed in armor, sitting on a white horse with a spear piercing the dragon, as the saint is immortalized in the tale in which he kills a dragon.
Success in Brazilian lands
São Jorge was named by the Portuguese as their patron saint. In Brazil, however, who really popularized it were black Africans. According to the theologian Antonio Carlos Oliveira Souza, at the time of the Empire, Europeans considered their religion superior and prohibited any type of manifestation of faith contrary to their own. In order not to lose their religious roots, Africans used Catholic images in their cults, associating them with an orixá so as not to be persecuted. “These cultural and religious factors made São Jorge find a definitive space in Candomblé as well,” explains the theologian.
In regions close to Rio de Janeiro and Rio Grande do Sul, the knight of the Christian faith is identified as Ogun, the warrior, the god of iron and agriculture. “Those who want to resolve life’s conflicts, open paths and remove obstacles in their way turn to Ogum”, says researcher Reginaldo Prandi. A little further north, in Bahia and around it, São Jorge is identified as Oxóssi, patron of hunting and ecology. “Unlike Ogum, those who invoke Oxóssi ask for food and abundance for their home”, says the researcher.
