A child of Oshun is a follower of the Afro-Cuban religion Santeria, which often worships the goddess Oshun. In Santeria, Oshun is seen as the motherly figure who nurtures and promotes fertility, love, sensuality and beauty. As such, children of Oshun devote themselves to honoring her in their daily lives by engaging in activities that promote these values. This includes making offerings to Oshun at regular intervals (usually once a week) during religious ceremonies or rituals; praying for her guidance; participating in traditional dances dedicated to her; and displaying symbols associated with her such as cowrie shells or peacock feathers. Additionally, children of Oshun strive to live according to certain moral codes so they can be deserving of her favor and blessings.
