The tumblr gods deliver sometimes.

Cool images but the primer class, Traditional Yoruba Religion 101seems to have been slept through...Shango represented by Eshu's number, 3? Eshu, always honored first and without whom NOTHING gets done, Ignored entirely? Oshun in Oya's colors and vice versa? Metaphysical recipe for chaos. Just sayin'

I'm not familiar enough with the mythology to know how true the depictions are, but I love the execution. The models are beautiful, and the makeup design and costuming was well chosen.

I am sorry they are not accurate, Beth. Like Tengeckoes I just loved the design of the images. I wish I could have also informed.
