Bajar el Ángel de la guarda en Osha es un mito, y cómo coronar de verdad. José Montoya (Obaife)

People seek spiritual consultation due to problems like marital issues, illness, or general misfortune. The consultant helps identify and address these problems through spiritual guidance, suggesting actions to resolve them. If signs indicate a strong spiritual destiny, protection under a spiritual energy may be recommended.

Orishas are energies. Eleguá, for instance, is considered the Orisha of doors, opening and closing paths, and is the spokesperson for all Orishas. Eleguá has many paths, and its coronations involve a double ceremony to open and close energies, signifying the beginning due to its connection to the head.

Ancestors believed that individuals, inspired by their feelings, chose the Orisha they wished to crown, rather than the Orisha dictating it. The "Angel de la Guarda" ceremony is meant to determine if one can truly receive an Orisha's energy, not to choose it. This is defined through consultation with oracles, who confirm if the person can undergo the ritual.

An example like Ferminita Gómez, who was crowned twice (once as a child and again as an adult), illustrates that it is possible to change or re-coronate an Orisha if the life circumstances change. This signifies a profound re-establishment of one's spiritual path and connection.

The process involves going to a mountainous area. With eyes covered, the person is led to a hillside where they choose a stone. This stone, representing the Orisha, is then taken to the home and adorned with elements, followed by purification rituals to cleanse and establish the spiritual connection. This method focuses on the head's connection to the chosen Orisha, rather than multiple 'santos'.

Historically, the true coronation was performed at the navel, which was seen as the point of birth and the beginning of existence, representing the deepest connection to life and transformation. The head ceremony is for synchronizing with celestial energy and the chosen spiritual protector.

The speaker criticizes modern "Cuban" practices for inventing unnecessary complexities, such as demanding multiple 'santos' for individuals, which often leads to financial strain and confusion. He emphasizes the importance of a logical and traditional approach to Osha, in contrast to these newer, often commercialized, interpretations.

Montoya discusses his ongoing project to establish a traditional spiritual center in central Florida, a 'holy land' dedicated to ancestral practices, including espiritismo, Palo Monte, and Ocha. This center will serve as a school and training ground for these traditions to preserve their authentic forms.

He encourages viewers to watch all his videos, as he shares fragments of knowledge that, when combined, offer a complete understanding. He expresses gratitude and asks for support to help fund these efforts, ensuring he can continue sharing valuable insights and assisting others without personal financial burden.
