Oxum is the ruler of fresh waters, of the rivers that wind through the earth, bringing life wherever they flow. Her reflection gleams in the currents, golden like gold, a symbol of her wealth and power. But her greatest strength does not lie only in material abundance—it is in the gentleness and wisdom with which she guides those who seek her. In many stories, she appears as a maternal goddess, welcoming and protective, yet also as a determined woman, capable of facing any challenge to secure what is rightfully hers.
Despite the softness she conveys, Oxum is not just tenderness. When disrespected, her waters can become turbulent, just like her heart. It is said that once, the other orixás ignored her presence and underestimated her power. In response, she withdrew, taking the world’s waters with her. Only then did they realize that without Oxum, there was no life, and they had to plead for her return, acknowledging her importance. This story teaches that sweetness is not a sign of weakness and that true strength also lies in subtlety.
Her mirrors reflect not only her own image but also the destiny of those who dare to face them with sincerity. Oxum knows the deepest desires and hidden longings of the human heart. Her river does not merely flow through the land—it also runs through the souls of those who seek love, prosperity, and harmony. And so, among waters and enchantments, Oxum continues to flow, guiding and transforming everything she touches.
