THE LWA PAPA SOBO

THE LWA PAPA SOBO




PAPA SOBO MI LOA, ESTOY ASEGURADO.
PAPA SOBO MI LOA ESTOY ASEGURADO.
MONEDA EN MI MANO, MONEDA EN MI BOLSILLO, MONEDA EN EL BANCO.
PAPA SOBO MI LOA ESTOY ASEGURADO.

"Papa Sobo my lwa, I am assured.  Oh Papa Sobo my lwa, I am assured.
I have money in my hand, money in my pocket, money in the bank. Papa Sobo my lwa, I am assured."
AGAOU  / BELIE BELCAN TOME
I am the Wrath of God,
 I am his Roar when the Earth Trembles, I am near!'

Belie Belcan "el Viejo San Miguel" is an Ogun Loa who is viewed as the general of Papa Buen Dios Todopoderos celestial army, and manifests God's energy on earth through storms, hurricanes, the frightening sounds associated with earthquakes and tsunamis.  He is Bon Dye's wrath and justice personified here on earth.  He is the thunder and lightning that strikes the earth, and when he strikes the oceans, which is the domain of his brother Agwe Tawayo, the earth will tremble.  Belie Belcan has a brother of the Agua Dulce Division known as Tindjo Alawe who is synchronized with Saint Rafael, and is a Loa de la Raiz who is a younger indigenous vuelta of the ancient Dahome Agwe.

In Haiti Belie Belcan is akin to or is a vuelta "road / path" of the fierce Lwa known as Agaou, and both are viewed as Bon Dye's divine justice on the earth, they enforce balance and justice.  Agaou is envisioned as a much younger and violent Lwa who is both feared and loved,  while Belie Belcan is viewed as a much older, kinder and benevolent Lwa.  Both are viewed as Lwa of great justice and defenders, not just of ones enemies but also malevolent forces.

Agaou is always accompanied by his younger twin brothers Sobo and Bade.   Sobo is known by various names, such as Papa Sobo, Gran Sobo, Sobo el Grande, Sobo Ke-Souh, Sobocoso, and Sogbo while his twin brother Bade is also known as Badessy.  Papa Sobo or Sogbo can be broken down to mean, Sô "Thunder" and Gbo, "Medicine Man', so he is the Thunderous Medicine Man, who brings forth lightning, but also heals.

Papa Sobo is the great harvester of Lightning and Badeh is a Lwa who harvests wind.  All three are ancient Misterios and belong to the White "Rada" Sky Division, and work under the puntos of fire and air, while Belie Belcan in his vuelta of Agaou is the Jefe chief of his Division, Sogbo and Badessy are viewed as his trusted generals, and each of these Warrior Lwa are well known for their legendery bravery, wisdom and strength. 

Papa Sobo is also known as General Sobo, as he often wears earthly Army Generals garments.  He is a great guardian, who protects his children and followers from malignant, supernatural forces, and evil spirits.  He is also known as a Santiguador, and Sobador, "a healer" and is called upon when an individual is suffering a causa, discomfort or problems due to black magic, sorcery. and punishes thieves, liars, criminals, sorcerers and other evildoers who harms those he defends.

Papa Sobo is synchronized with the Catholic Saint Roque, and Bade is often his trusted mascot dog that walks along side him.  Also Saint Cosmos and Saint Damián are often used to represent them, although they are also used to represent the Divine Marassa twins,, these Saints are also used to represent Papa Sogbo and Legba Carrefour, or any divine manifestations of twins and opposing forces.  In this interpretation they are the younger versions of Saint Roch and Saint Lazarus.  Thus Papa Sobo maintains his persona of the great healer, while Legba Carrefour becomes Sagbata / Sakpata, who is known as the Misterio that brings on plagues and diseases, while Sogbo with his lightning heals and purifies.  In this aspect Sakpata "Pata en Llagas / Babalu Aye" is also known as a Misterio of air and wind, that can bring upon airborne illnesses and diseases and is viewed in this concept as a vuelta of Bade.

A West African legends tell the tale of how Sakpata was the lord of the earth while Sobo was the lord of the skies, but at the time both where bitter rivals.  Now at this time Sakpata who was "and still is" the lord of the earth and was one of the Lwa who helped bring civilization to mankind.  This of course was a good thing, but because of his bitter rivalry with his brother Sobo, Sakpata little by little dwindled the veneration and offerings to Papa Sobo.  This of course offended Papa Sobo who punished the earth and its inhabitants by halting the rains of the earth.  This act in turn brought upon a great drought on the face of the earth, that dried the lakes, and rivers, which soon brought with it pestilence, diseases, then death.  The starved, thirsty and disease ridden inhabitants of earth blamed Sakpata for It's misfortunes.  The once handsome Sakpata had become old from the heat of the scorching Sun, his skin wrinkled, his lips chapped, and his skin became rough and dry which then brought scars and lesions all over his body and face, which from half shame and half to protect his fragile skin, he covered his body in straw raffia and sack cloth. "Both materials of earth and air."

Sakpata could not bare to see the misfortunes of his people, and this made him offer what was left of the earth to Papa Sobo, which was the only healthy wild Ram, male Goat left on earth.  He did this In the hopes of appeasing Papa Sobo, this act did appease Papa Sobo, and he let loose a cleansing storm that covered the earth.  When the rains finally stopped, the earth was cleansed, new life grew and the earth was populated once again. 

Sadly from that day on Sakpata became not just the lord of the earth, but also the Lord who brought death and disease to the world, a title he carries to this day.    Although Sakpata is known for bringing diseases, like Papa Sobo, he is a great healer, who purifies, heals and cleanses with air, the wind and the making of sacrifices.

Following Cristian tradition Sakpata as a healer and in his Catholic persona of San Lazaro is accompanied by las Tres Marias, las Marassa Trillizas known as María Jacobe, María Magdalena and María de Betania which embody Truth, Love, and Justice or as the three virtues, Faith Hope and Charity.  The version of this story has similar ties to the Biblical story of Noah's Arc, The Plaques of Moses, as well as the Greek and Roman mythology of Pandora's Box.

Papa Sobo is a brave warrior Lwa of strength, labor, hard work and force, this associates him to his brother Ogoun.  He is also a great healer as he heals wounds with the healing properties of Goat horns and in the African Deer antlers.  He is a labourer, who as most of the Ogoun Division works tiredly.  He is petitioned for healing and removing curses as he is petitioned to help one find work, prosperity and all money matters.

His messenger is the Goat, which is symbolic of his brother Bade, and which also became his symbol when Sakpata made the sacrifice to him, and offered him the horns.  Like most thunder deities in other cultures such as Zues and Thor, Papa Sobo is always accompanied by his weapon of choice which is a Double headed ax made out of the goat horns that Sakpata gave to him, which symbolizes the Goat's horns, and his abilities to strike from both sides, from behind as well as from the front.  Papa Sobo uses it also as a reminder to all those who dare offend or cross him, and as a reminder of when Papa Sobo and Sakpata butted heads, as male goats often do. The Double bladed Ax is often made of wood to represent Sakpata, the Lord of the Earth's offering as well as the sound that is made by the horns of goats that collide in battle, which symbolizes thunder.

Papa Sobo is a gentle Lwa by nature, he is the ideal Vudu Houngan Priest which brings the life giving rains to the earth, but he can be a bit inpatient and is quick to anger, backlash, and when offended becomes the ferocious Bokor Sorcerer who brings thunderous storms.

His colors are white, lime green, red and lime yellow and some add dark royal blue, which is used in his sacred Collares and the fula / pañuelos, his servitors use to adorn Papa Sobo's ritual items.  These colors represent the night sky and the light of Papa Sobo's lightning.

Papa Sobo's feast day "within Sance" falls on the feast day of Saint Roque which is August 16th and he falls under the fire sign of Leo. 

Papa Sobo is known by many names in various traditions and each is a vuelta of the same Misterio, he is Chango Macho, Ogou Shango, Hevio Ső, Amadiora and even the Taino Lightning and Thunder Cemi Spirit known as Guataubá.

Papa Sobo in his aspect of Hevio Ső " Heviosső', is not just only a Lwa of rain, lightning and thunder, but also of fire, where he strikes, if life giving rain does not follow, death spawning fire will run ramped; thus he is also a Lwa who can sustains life, but can also take it away.  In this aspect he is close to Papa Ghede and the Barones whom have one foot in the realm of the living and the other in the realm of the dead, thus it is Papa Sobo, and Belie Belcan who taught the Muertero Candelo Cedife the mysteries of harnessing and controlling fire on the earth.  As he is depicted as a twin force with Bade, and Sakpata, he is also in some traditions viewed as the twin brother, who works alongside Ogoun, to harness electricity and to create metal.

PRAYER TO SAN ROQUE / PAPA SOBO
PRAYER TO SAINT ROCCO

O great St. Rocco, deliver us, we beseech thee, from the scourges of God; through thy intercession, preserve our bodies from contagious diseases, and our souls from the contagion of sin.

Obtain for us salubrious air; but, above all, purity of heart.

Assist us to make good use of health, to bear sufferings with patience; and, after thy example, to live in the practice of penance and charity, that we may one day enjoy the happiness which thou has merited by thy virtues.
St. Rocco, pray for us, Amen.

ORACION A SAN ROQUE / PAPA SOBO
Oh, Glorioso Roque!, a quien el Padre Todopoderoso concedió la gracia especial de librar de la peste a los pueblos afligidos con tan espantoso azote; cuya virtud fue objeto de admiración en la misma Roma, a donde fuisteis cuando estaba tocada de aquel mal, empleando vuestro valimiento con el Señor para que de él la librase, como así lo hizo; presentad nuestras súplicas al trono del Altísimo, interesándoos por nosotros, para que por vuestros méritos e intercesión nos preserve el señor de semejante calamidad, y seamos libertados así de ella como de todo lo que pueda turbar nuestra tranquilidad, y sernos de obstáculo a la salvación. Amén.

THE MISTRESS ANAISA PYE

METRES MAMBO ANAISA PYE


Subele que Subele, Subele que eh, Subele la sangre a Anaisa Pye.

Arise, o Arise, Arise o Arise.  Arise the blood of Anaisa Pye.


ORACION A ANAISA PYE

Salve O Gran AnaIsa Pye, Gran Cacica, India Mulatta, bella morena de mi devocion. Reina del cielo, abuela de la tierra y amable señora de las Aguas Dulces.

Con humildad y reverencia me rodillo, ante tu sagrado manto y santuario, y te ofresco este velon amarillo, ramo de flores, perfume, cigarillo y cervesa.  As que si el favor que te pido me pertenece, haclo en realidad.


Gloria sea tu Santisimo nombre, te pido en nombre de Sambia, Padre Nuestro Todopoderoso, que intercede e alcances en mi favor eso que hoy te pido, de tu divina piedad, y si lo que te pido no me favorese, y no sea para mi, saves que tu divino nombre lo alavare entre todos los Luases.  En nombre de Bon Dye, Gran Solier y Fa, Amen.



PRAYER TO ANAISA PYE



Hail, O Great Anaisa Pye, Great Queen and Chieftain , beautiful brown skinned mulatta of my devotion. Queen in Heaven, grandmother of the earth and lady of the sweat waters.

With humility, humbleness and reverence, I bow before your sacred shrine and offer you this yellow candle, bouquet of flowers, perfume,
 cigarette and beer. If the favor that I have come to ask, should be for me, then let it come to pass.


Glory be your Holy Name, I pray in the name of Sambia, Gran Bon Dye, that you may intercede and obtain that which I ask of you this day, and if what I ask is not in my favor, I shall still praise your divine name amongst and above all Lwa.  In the name of Bon Dye, Gran Solier and Fa, Amen.



THE MISTRESS
ANAISA PYE
Anaisa Pye is known as the Queen of the Seven Roads, she who spins seven times, and each turn is an avatar of the previous one.  She is the Lady of the seven altar egos and Lady of the seven split personalities, Lady of Seven Manifestations, Queen of the Seven Crossroads.  Each Lwa has avatars or paths, and behind that path, each path has their paths, there is no exception to the rule, especially when it comes to Metres Mambo Anaisa Pye.

Of the many vueltas, I "Sancista Luis" will be talking about in this article, I would like to start of with Anaisa Pye, pronounced Ah-Nah-Ee-Sah, Pee-Yeh.  Other variations of the spelling of her name are Anaisa Pie "Pee-Yeh", Ana Isapie and Ana Isa Pierre.

She is one of the most loved and most venerated Loa within 21 Division and Sanse, and for good reason, she is the Mistress of Love and all good things that life has to offer.  Each tradition although they have many similarities, views her in a different light. In both traditions she is the wife of Belie Belcan, although in 21 Division she is often synchronized with the young Mary who stands next to her grandmother, Santa Ana "Mama Ana Mambo", in Sanse "in many cases" it is Juana De Arco, that is used to represent Anaisa, and there is a reason for it in which I will go deeper as you read. But in both traditions, she is known as "la mujer del viejo Belie Belcan" and where ever there is one, the other is surely to follow, as these two Loases are inseparable. 

Although many think Anaisa is just a Rada Lwa, or an African Spirit, in all her vueltas she is not.  Many vueltas of Anaisa Pye are Native Loa, a Loa de la Raiz; a root Loa who resided in the Caribbean way before the Europeans came to the Americas, as well as a Petro Loa, and like Legba she is a Loa that manifests her energies in some form in every Division.

In the Taino language Anaisa can be broken down to "Ana" meaning Yellow or golden flower, "I" being that of Spirit, Ni being that of water, and Xa pronounced Chah, a loving nickname given to daughters, meaning little one. Many Taino women had the name Ana within their name or Iza as in the Dominican female Cacique Anacaona and the Puerto Rican Cacique Yuiza, both of whom are seen as vueltas of Anaisa within their respected traditions.  So the name in itself although roughly can be translated to, Little  Child of the Golden River Flower.

Anaisa is the Queen of love, feminine power, independence, strength, and laughter and personifies female beauty, flirtatiousness, sexuality, sexual allure, desire, joy, hearth, home, and family.  She is often misunderstood in the caballo she rides, and the banco she sits in as a harlot, prostitute, femme fatale or lady of the night, and although she often manifests her energies and uses her
feminine wiles in humans in a way that we may suggest or misunderstand her as such, she is so much more.  She personifies Female strength, endurance, the strength of family and the survival skills needed to endure in a harsh world that has often been claimed as a man's world, and at any costs necessary she will use her gifts and charms to get her way and get things done and survive.

Through out history Anaisa has manifested her ambiguous energy through her children and in human forms through out the world, she has manifested in the Biblical, Queen Jezebel, in Cleopatra, Mary Magdeline, Salome with her dance of the seven veils, the Prostitute who anointed Jesus feet with oils, perfumes and tears, as well as Marie Antonette; whom if any of these women were men would have gone down in History as a force to be reckoned with, and not as woman who did not know their place in a "Man's World".  She is the great female Caciques known as  Anacaona and Yuiza, whom for their people the Taino, lost their lives.  Men within history have tried to destroy, belittle, degrade or erase these powerful iconic historic females, but because of Anaisa and her close "but not the same" African counterpart Ochun, they have prevailed in the minds of the modern world both in male and female.


SANTA ANA
Feast Day July 26th

In 21 Division Anaisa Pye is always accompanied by her grandmother Matresse Mambo Ana, who is Saint Anne, while Anaisa is the young Mary.  In her Haitian vuelta Santa Ana is Mambo Lasaille and Anaisa is Mademoiselle Anais.  Anaisa Pye loves to dance and when she mounts her horses, she asks for her beer, anise liquor or champagne which she adds 7 drops of Colognia Pompeya, one of her favorite perfumes in which she also anoints herself from head to toe and then back up again with it.

Her drinks are always served in a champagne glass.  She asks for her lit cigarette and ask for her golden and yellow satin with lace pañuelo "fula", and loves her jewelry, perfumes, yellow floral arrangements, pink or amber honey, fresh milk and fragrant feminine talc powders. 

Her Servicios are always accompanied by yellow candles, anointed with virgin olive oil or a sweet smelling oil, or oil lanterns done in the same way.  She loves expensive yellow flowers, mirrors, make up, Spanish fans, and accessories.  In fiestas she is the life of the party, she is always cheerful, and full of laughter, especially when it comes to courting and flirting with men.  When she dances her influences is often felt by all those around her.



SANTA JUANA DE ARCO
Feast Day May 30th.


In Puerto Rican Sanse Anaisa Pyé is synchronized with Juan De Arco who has her own vueltas known as Anaisa la Pequeñita, Anaisa la Chiquitita and Tita or Titi Juana Pyè  " Ti Yuana Pyè  or Pequeñita Juana Pier ", whom the latter is actually viewed by some as a younger sister of Anaisa Pye.

Titi / Ti Yuana Pyè is believed by many to be a young Bruja "Witch" but in actuality she is that and so much more, she is also a great Medium, and in life was believed to be an Espiritista Mediamnidad de Mano Derecha and Presidente de Mesa.

Like Juana de Arco who received messages from San Miguel, Santa Margarita and Santa Caterina, in Sanse Anaisa la Chiquitita / Ti Yuana Pyè  is a muertera / Espiritista who brings visions, prophesies and premonitions.

She walks in Centros Espiritistas de la Mesa Blanca Criolla and Folclorica pouring her facultades and corrientes espirituales.  Like Anaisa Pyè, Ti Yuana Pyè is always surrounded by Belie Belcan and works with him under the Ogun, the Macole and Fuego Division, but she is also an India who works Agua Dulce and is a great curandera, yerbera and or a santiguadora who heals those in battle with the tools Ogoun has given her, thus she also works closely with Ogun Balendjo. As a Santiaguadora and Curandera she helps to heal psychic attacks and helps give strength and endurance in psychic warfare.  She helps Curanderas and Santiguadores, in cleansing the aura of any astral larvae, etheric parasites, removing the negative energies of psychic vampires, and cleanses the auric layer of Empaths, she aids in cleansing the body of filth and dirt that the individual may pick up.  She often cleanses with spiritual waters, oils, perfumes and seven drops of Pompeya Cologne, which to it is added a yellow, white or orange lily flower with a miniature golden metal sword to represent both Belie Belcan and Ogou Balendjo.  Her colors are gold, red and blue, and while she is very feminine, she also has a Marimacha aspect to her because she is a fighter who does not get intimidated very easily.  Often to those who serve her, her image is placed alongside San Miguel and Santa Ana; San Miguel is always placed in the center.



LAS SIETE VUELTAS 
DE ANAISA PYE

Although seven are the most widely known Vueltas, and the most that manifest within Fiestas Espirituales, Anaisa Pye is the first to say she only has seven, but this of course is known by her servitors as "a little white lie", and is a way for her to protect her identity and that of her children's Cuadro Espiritual from others.  Anaisa has many vueltas although 7 are the main ones and she is one of the few Lwa who has a vuelta in almost every Division, and is one of the few Metresa Loa who can be around the Ghuede, including her close friend, rival and comadre, Metres Lubana "Mama Chimbi / Santa Marta La Dominadora".  But no matter what vuelta she chooses to manifest herself as, and only the true servitors know her name, she will often proclaim.  "Bonswa yo soy Anaisa Pye!, or Las Buenas Noches Criollos, yo soy Anaisa Pye.". Anaisa often comes as the wife or maiden, but it is not unheard of that she comes as Aracoel ancient Grand Mother, I'naru' the ripe Woman or Nana the maiden Girl child.

ANAISA PYE BASICO
Anaisa Pye Basico as she is known in the Dominican Republic.  Anaisa Pye in one of her eldest of vueltas and is the one that is most widely known and venerated.  She as most of her vueltas is a woman of Indigenous blood, or a mix of Indigenous and African or Indigenous and European.  But as Anaisa, this Metresa Lwa, pertains to the Indian Division, or the Agua Dulce Division, and is one of the few of that Division who enjoys her liquor, especially golden beer, anisette liquor or sweet champagne.  In this aspect she is the Golden flower, the Lady of the Sun Flower, lady of the lake and stream, who enjoys her pumpkins, honey, Cinnamon, mimosas, lirios, girasoles and golden silks.  Anaisa Pye in this vuelta as in most works the element of water, while Belie Belcan works the elements of air and fire and does not work water.  In this vuelta Anaisa works for him in all travajos espirituales involving Belie Belcan and water.

It is this Anaisa and her mother Sili Freda "Metresili" who are often mistaken with the African Orisha known as Ochun, but Anaisa does have a separate vuelta who is more closely associated with Ochun, known as Cachita Tumbo. 

CACHITA TUMBO
Cachita Tumbo although a vuelta of Anaisa, is an ancient Taino River Spirit, known as Coatrisque.  In this aspect she is a great lover, but also a dangerous advisory as she not only governs over the rivers, but also floods, which devours and envelopes anything in her path, it is this vuelta that is the closest in association to the African Orisha Ochun, as the name Cachita is used for Ochun and both are synchronized with La Caridad del Cobre.  The name Cachita is said to come from the Taino word Cacica, meaning Female Chief.

ANAISSO
Anaisso is her Haitian Vuelta and pertains to the Petro Division.  She is a powerful Mambo who works her wangas and bilongos by the river, and speaks a mix dialect of Haitian Kreyol and Dominican, she is both Patua and Cibao.  In this aspect she dresses in Gold and Black.

ANAISA GUINE LUÀ
Anaisa Guine Luá is a Lwa Mambo who has most of her blood in Africa.  In this vuelta Anaisa Guine Luá is very stern, always serious and very austere, unlike most of her vueltas which are happy, flirtatious and light hearted.  In this older "Aracoel Grand mother"
more mature vuelta, she dresses in amber, gold, yellow and white. 

CORONELA ANAISA LA FRONTE
Coronela Anaisa La Fronte, is a great Nitaino warrior Loa, that pertains to the Ogun Division.  This is her least feminine aspect, and is a mighty warrior who fights alongside Belie Belcan and uses his colors, Red, Green and Blue.  In this vuelta she is a militant warrior, and has much masculine qualities, which is so unlike the rest of her vueltas who are more feminine.  Often this vuelta is viewed as a Lezbian, as she fights alongside male loa and completely ignores flirting or courting with men.  She fights with her Machetes or swords which is often tied with the colors associated with Belie Belcan. 

ANAISA LA GAGA
Anaisa la Gaga is the vuelta that works under the Division Lebane and works closely with Papa Legba.  In this vuelta she loves to dance and twirl, and speakes in studders, as every time she turns another vuelta or spirit of Anaisa manifests.

The relationship of Anaisa and her parents Ogun Balendjo and Metresili "Metres Mambo Esili Freda Daome" in this vuelta is a rocky one.  She was raised by Maîtresse Erzulie, her grandmother "Santa Ana".  In this vuelta she does not get along well with her mother Metresili "Erzulie Freda / Metres Mambo Esili Freda Daome", as Metresili does not approve of her daughters tactics and relationship with her husband.  Often Anaisa Pye flirts with her father Ogun Balendjo who did not raise her; she does this so that she can get what ever she wants from her father, who spoils her.  Metresili also does not approve of the relationship Anaisa holds with her father, as she often backs him to a wall to get that which she desires.   Ogun Balendjo loves his daughter deeply, and feels a some what remose for not raising her, that he gives her all she desires.
