The Divine Protection of Ogum: A Spiritual Anthem

Juliana D Passos' song "Ponto de Ogum - Ogum Me Escolheu" is a powerful tribute to Ogum, a revered deity in Afro-Brazilian religions such as Umbanda and Candomblé. The lyrics express a deep sense of gratitude and reverence for Ogum, who is depicted as a divine protector and warrior. The repetition of the phrase "Ogum me escolheu" (Ogum chose me) underscores the singer's belief in being divinely chosen and protected, which provides a sense of invincibility against those who wish to harm her.

The song also highlights the syncretism present in Afro-Brazilian religions, where Ogum is equated with Saint George, a noble knight in Christian tradition. This blending of beliefs is common in Umbanda, where Catholic saints are often associated with African deities. The lyrics mention Ogum's strong and protective sword, symbolizing his role as a guardian who ensures the safety and honor of his followers. The reference to "caminhos de Oxalá" (paths of Oxalá) connects Ogum's protection to the broader spiritual journey guided by Oxalá, another significant deity in these traditions.

Furthermore, the song pays homage to various manifestations of Ogum, such as Ogum Iara and Ogum Megê, and other spiritual entities like Matinata, Rompe Mato, and Beira-Mar. These references enrich the song's spiritual depth, acknowledging the diverse ways in which Ogum's presence is felt and celebrated. The invocation of these entities reflects a desire for relief from suffering and a plea for guidance and protection. Overall, "Ponto de Ogum - Ogum Me Escolheu" is a heartfelt expression of faith, resilience, and the enduring power of spiritual guardianship in the face of adversity.
