Prayer to Oxum Hail my mother Oxum, golden lady with golden skin, blessed are your waters that wash my being and free me from evil. Oxum, divine queen, beautiful orisha, come to me, walking on the full moon, carrying in your hands the lilies of love and peace. Make me sweet, gentle and seductive as you are. Protect me from visible and invisible evil and from evil disguised as good. Make love and prosperity constant in my life, that I may love all of God's creation and also receive love. Protect me from all witchcraft and sorcery. May all negative energy fall to the ground now. Give me the nectar of your sweetness and may I achieve everything I desire: the serenity to act consciously and in a balanced way. Open all my paths. May I be like your fresh waters that follow the course of rivers, cutting through rocks and rushing down waterfalls, without stopping at obstacles or turning back, just following my path. Purify my soul and body with your tears of encouragement. Flood me with your beauty, your kindness and your love, filling my life with prosperity and romance. Your light is golden, just like the gold that belongs to you! Pour your golden light over me, my family, my home. Fluidize this water with everything I need, Orixa of fresh waters. You are sweet, protective, gentle and vain, feminine and seductive. Oh mother Oxum, give me your axé! Give me your strength, like the most sublime nectar, so that I may radiate your light and your presence, wherever I go. In honey is your secret, which I will know how to use!”
