Yemaya Goddess Pendant

Yemaya (pronounced Yey-maya) is the African Yoruban Goddess of the sea. Yemaya is the creator/mother goddess who gave birth to the 14 orisha spirits.

Yemaya was originally worshiped in Africa and later Brazil where she is know as Iamanja. Yemaya's worshippers send offerings of gifts and flowers out to sea on little boats. Those who come to Mother Yemaya with complete surrender find that their troubles dissolve in the waters of her embrace.
