Orisha Oshun

Oshun is a deity in the Yoruba religion, known as an orisha, who is worshipped primarily in the religious tradition of Santeria and other African-American religions derived from Yoruba culture. In Yoruba mythology, Oshun is considered the goddess of love, fertility, fresh water, wealth, and femininity. She is depicted as a young, beautiful, and powerful woman, associated with rivers and bodies of fresh water. Oshun is a central figure in many African-descended spiritual and cultural practices, known for her generosity and for being the protector of children and women.
