Obatala Festival held in Port of Spain in January
Obatala Festival held in Port of Spain in January this year. Every year, the Ita Oosa Shrine in Woodbrook hosts this festival to honour the Orisa divine energy, Obatala. Devotees ask the Chief of the White Cloth as he is known, to bless us, our families and the earth with creativity, purity, a cool head and peace. This Festival is also celebrated in countries that practice the Yoruba belief system such as Cuba and Nigeria. As 2020 continues to challenge us, we give thanks for all our blessings and ask for the wisdom of Obatala to guide us through these extraordinary times with patience and gratitude. Ase.
