The World of Eshú and Pomba Gira

When imposed, the amulet had to insert the same substances of the amulet within the person’s body. Hence, a small incision was made in the left forearm and the medicinal powder was placed at the tip of the client's tongue.

When Quimbanda arrived to Brazil it changed, evolved and mixed with black magic.

Quimbanda also works with entities other than Eshu and Pomba Gira. I will not talk about them now but I will name them for your knowledge. These entities are:

– Ciganos

– Ciganas

– Bahianos

–Affricans

–Quiumbas

–Eguns

Each entity has its own evolutionary degree of light.

There are also 7 lines (linhas) of spirits of known Quimbanderos who worship Eshu. These groups are:

Linha das Almas is led by Eshu Tranca R?a das Almas and is commanded by Omulu and Eshu Caveira. The spirits are those of sorcerers.

Linha Nag? is led by Eshu Ganga. African spirits of yerberos and religious of Eshu.

Linha Mista is led by Eshu das Campinas. Different peoples, races and countries, especially gypsies and their spirits.

Linha dos Cemitеrios is led by Omulu. They are the prisoner spirits of the laws of karma.

Linha Mossurubi is led by Eshu Kaminaloa and they are African sorcerers.

Linha Malei is led by Ogun Megue and they take care of the cemetery doors.

Linha Caboclos Quimbandeiros is led by Eshu Pantera Preta. They are chiefs and sorcerers of the Guarani Indians.

They come from the Bantu, from the peoples of Angola-Congo. It is a combination between the Menina culture, Nganga and Tat?s 8 Spirits of the Quimbandist chiefs of the Bantu nations.

They are spirits of the night and the cult is done at night.

They are messengers who work with spirits during the night. In life they were important characters.

Baptism is done with blood and ceremonies with sacrifices, dances and banquets.
