Prayer to Yemaya
Before getting into the matter, and explaining the prayer to Yemayá , and the different prayers for money, health, getting pregnant, protecting oneself and more, we believe it is important to make a brief summary of the history, origin and answered requests of this ancestral .
Who is Yemaya? Yemayá, she is the queen of creativity, Abeokutá and nature, mother of life, she owns the waters and represents the sea and fundamental source of life. In it, love is born.
Yemayá is indomitable and cunning, her punishments are harsh and her anger terrible, but righteous. It is because of this passionate, impulsive and ruthless character of hers that she lost the hegemony of the world and was assigned control of the sea.
However, Yemayá is preferred for being diligent, conciliatory and understanding with her children. She is she, model mother, goddess of universal motherhood. In it, nature and humanity are born.
Yemayá is the mother of all the orishas, and it is said that we are all her children because we remain swimming like a fish in her immensity (placenta) for nine (9) months; Yemayá, the miraculous and merciful queen of the sea and of all men. Her number is seven (7) and her day is Saturday. In the Catholic religion she is known as the virgin of rule.
In nature, she is symbolized by the waves of the sea, so her dance resembles their movement. Her name comes from the Yoruba “Yemoyá” (Yeyé = mother, Omo = Son, Eyá = Fish, that is, her name means “mother of the fish”).
Olofin decided to create the world and Yemayá was the first to step on it, in fact, it is said that everything that surrounds us and we know originated from this Yoruba deity. Along with Obbatalá they spawned other orishas that we know.
Yemayá is a female orisha and symbolizes both a deity of salty waters and the womb of humanity, a source of life, motherhood and even fertility. SE of her says of her, that as a keeper of treasures, any material good that we have lost, we can recover it thanks to her.
In some regions, they have decreed February 2 as the day to celebrate the protection offered by this mother Yemayá. On December 31, many offer him gifts as an offering for the benefits received: candles, food, an adilmuse or fruit that he likes a lot is the sideburn, baskets, among others.

There are more specific prayers such as a prayer to Yemayá to open roads, a prayer to Yemayá for love, a prayer to Yemayá for money, a prayer to Yemayá for health, protection, among others.
When we look for Yemayá we must do it on the crests of the waves of the sea, or on the rocks and shores of the coasts, because that is where we will find her stormy and captivating, moving from right to left.
In the Santera religion, Yemayá and Obbatalá are the most powerful and have inhabited the world since its creation. Yemayá is a combination of beauty and subtlety, kindness and generosity, without a doubt, these characteristics make many love her, although she is also usually harsh with her children, just like any mother. She is arrogant and proud.
Within some of our organs it can generate wonderful effects, among them: uterus, chest and liver, in them, it can exert great influence.

For the money
Obviously, the economic issue for most of the human being is extremely important, although perhaps, for some it is not the most essential thing in life and exempts us from having problems, however, it allows us to enjoy special moments with family and friends, in addition to allowing to feed and survive in this world, often fierce and empty.
That is why one of the main requests made by most of the devotees to this Yoruba mother is money, the economic issue, since as we know, it is largely related to good fortune, money, abundance and wealth. prosperity, so it is not surprising that along with love, it is one of the requests and prayers most prayed for by his devotees.
As we have highlighted in previous paragraphs, each prayer, petition, request, or whatever you want to call it, must be specific, so in this case, the most appropriate prayer is a prayer that allows us to attract that money, connect with abundance, or have good fortune. Doing it this way will result in greater effectiveness.
What would a prayer to attract money into our lives be about?
Initially, this goddess Yemayá, queen of the seas and waters, is asked to cover us with her light with her power and infinite love, enlighten us with her sacred wisdom and with her infinite love.
To her, who is mistress, owner and lady of the waters and seas of our beloved world, we ask her to direct our life and direct it always just as you do with the oceans, with wisdom, justice, harmony, and in some cases, with jerks, which are necessary to remind us to act correctly.
We ask our Yoruba mother to grant us the favors we request, because she, like every mother, knows the desires of our hearts, of our being, and our genuine desires.
Therefore, we ask you to remove from us all bad vibes, bad luck, or any work done so that our abundance and prosperity in material and economic matters can flow freely and with total freedom.
Help us drown once and for all our anxieties, fears, grudges, sadness, fears, and everything that prevents us and blocks our money income in a fluid way.
Keep away our complaints and allow us to enjoy the freedom of being able to feel worthy of what belongs to us, but that sometimes we consciously or unconsciously reject or block.
Every time we self-sabotage, fill us with wisdom and peace, so that we can understand that sometimes not having is necessary to have a different perspective and leave fears and excuses behind.
So we ask you, mother, beautiful, kind, sacred and powerful Yemayá, to grant your son (mention your name with surnames included) prosperity, money, abundance and fortune, not only to enjoy life, cover my needs and those of my family, but also to help others.
Thank you beloved mother, for listening to me, for never abandoning me, and for always being there for me, listening carefully to my pleas, wishes, and even complaints, and more importantly, materializing my wishes, even when I don’t always deserve it. Your goodness is infinite mother, thank you. And it ends with a phrase “Hail, oh, goddess Yemayá. Amen”.
To health
Illnesses affect our lives, they take away our energy, especially when the illness is physical, since they greatly limit our mobility, and make us feel useless, disabled, that we cannot contribute in any way, and this can bring us more serious consequences at the psychological how? Affecting our peace of mind.
Sometimes, we downplay the psychological aspect and focus only on the visible, the physical, but our mind plays an important role in our lives and is decisive in being able to enjoy good physical health. Let’s see this with an example.
When we are afraid, we feel distressed, stressed, and even have low self-esteem or our self-perception is low, initially, it affects our mind, but staying in these states, not valuing ourselves or feeling that others do not, generates a impact on our health, and can even manifest in our body, in a physical, external, visible way.
Taking care of ourselves is also valuing ourselves, accepting ourselves, understanding that each one of us is a unique and wonderful being, with skills and challenges. This care should not only be external, but also internal. In fact, it starts from the heart, and from there, we externalize it.
When we don’t feel completely good before a person, a situation, or any other, we can suffer from such great sadness that it can evolve and become a depression from which it is difficult for us to get out.
Have you ever wondered, what is the use of being powerful? Or have a lot of money? If you don’t have love, health and people to share it with, then what is it worth? Health and love are the most valuable things we have, having the joy of enjoying our friends and loved ones is something that not everyone can do.
Fortune does not always imply money, sometimes having all this also implies wealth, profit, good luck and happiness. Happiness and health go hand in hand, feeling full, not living punishing ourselves, enjoying life every day and to the fullest.
This is why the devotees to Yemayá, who wish to enjoy good health, enjoy their lives to the full and maintain a state of well-being, say a prayer to their mother with great faith, so that she grants them these wishes.
We remind you once again that prayer, in order to be fully effective, must follow the steps mentioned in the first part of this article, in addition to performing it with faith and being specific to health.
To make our request / request / wish to Yemayá, goddess of the sea, we must place each and every one of our needs, desires and desires of our heart inside a white sheet, as we mentioned, health is not only a physical aspect, remember , that emotional needs or gaps are part of comprehensive and optimal health.
Do not pay attention to the color with which you write these wishes, in reality, this is completely irrelevant, the only thing you should consider is that the ink, pen or marker that you decide to make is permanent, because the intention is that not even the ocean water can erase it .
Remember that you must also have the nine coins on hand (preferably of an average size), and now you can make your prayer or request to the mother of all mothers, the goddess, powerful, beautiful and fair Yemayá.
Once we find ourselves in front of the immensity of the sea, we proceed to locate ourselves on the shore of it, and it is the ideal moment to confess and ask forgiveness for our mistakes, for our stubbornness, for wanting to do things our way and not flow with the life.
This is the moment, to apologize to our mother Yemayá, for sometimes doubting, not her power, but ours. For letting ourselves be carried away by other people’s words and not turning a deaf ear to criticism. For working so hard and forgetting about our families, for not giving them due importance.
Let’s not be afraid to be honest with our mother, because it is something that she values a lot from her children, so let’s open our hearts and be frank about our actions, both good and bad. And then, let us ask them to show compassion and mercy to those who owe us some kind of debt.
As human beings, imperfect and that we make mistakes, we must not only ask for forgiveness for our mistakes and actions that are not so good or bad, but also beg to forgive those people who have hurt us and who owe us.
Our mother, especially Yemayá, has a capacity for merciful forgiveness, she is fair, but kind, firm, and at the same time as soft, as the caress of a wave. She is agitated, but also compassionate. So let’s not be afraid to be completely honest with her. We can be certain that no matter how bad we have done, she will forgive us.
Once we have lightened our loads, we stand on the shore and invoke her with faith. We make our prayer and when we read our wishes to him we throw a coin into the sea. Let us also remember the offering: the white flowers.
The prayer to Yemayá for health asks her as a creative force to protect not only us, but also each member of our family and keep us united, healthy and in harmony, inside and outside the home.
May we never lack money, daily bread, love and union. May we not get sick, and if we do, may our inner strength and power manifest and heal us. May we never lack a place, which we can call: home.

Prayer to Yemayá to open paths
This prayer is a way of not only requesting their protection, but also that their nymphs, sea squaws and sirens be our guides, offering us encouragement and comfort in our difficult times that are as convulsive as the waves themselves.
