Question: Who is believed to be magical in the Yoruba religion?

<P0-S0> Yemoja (Yoruba: "Yemọja" ) is a major water deity from the Yoruba religion. <P0-S1>  She is an orisha and the mother of all orishas, having given birth to the 14 Yoruba gods and goddesses. <P0-S2>  She is often syncretized with either Our Lady of Regla in the afrocuban diaspora or various other Virgin Mary figures of the Catholic Church, a practice that emerged during the era of the Trans-Atlantic slave trade. <P0-S3>  Yemoja is motherly and strongly protective, and cares deeply for all her children, comforting them and cleansing them of sorrow. <P0-S4>  She is said to be able to cure infertility in women, and cowrie shells represent her wealth. <P0-S5>  She does not easily lose her temper, but when angered she can be quite destructive and violent, as the flood waters of turbulent rivers. <SEP> <P1-S0> An orisha (spelled òrìṣà in the Yoruba language, and orichá or orixá in Latin America) is a spirit who reflects one of the manifestations of the supreme divinity (Eledumare, Olorun, Olofi) in Yoruba religion. <P1-S1>  Orisha are said to have existed in the spiritual world, or Astral plane ("òrun") or lived as human beings in the planetary world, or physical plane ("ayé"). <P1-S2>  Others are said to be humans who are recognized as deities due to extraordinary feats. <P1-S3>  Many orishas have found their way to most of the New World as a result of the Atlantic slave trade and are now expressed in practices as varied as Santería, Candomblé, Trinidad Orisha, Umbanda, and Oyotunji, among others. <SEP> <P2-S0> Ibeji (known as Ibejí, Ibeyí, or Jimaguas in Latin America) is the name of an Orisha representing a pair of twins in the Yoruba religion of the Yoruba people (originating from Yorubaland, an area in and around present-day Nigeria). <P2-S1>  In the diasporic Yoruba spirituality of Latin America, Ibeji are syncretized with Saints Cosmas and Damian. <P2-S2>  In Yoruba culture and spirituality, twins are believed to be magical, and are granted protection by the Orisha Shango. <P2-S3>  If one twin should die, it represents bad fortune for the parents and the society to which they belong. <P2-S4>  The parents therefore commission a babalawo to carve a wooden Ibeji to represent the deceased twin, and the parents take care of the figure as if it were a real person. <P2-S5>  Other than the sex, the appearance of the Ibeji is determined by the sculptor. <P2-S6>  The parents then dress and decorate the ibeji to represent their own status, using clothing made from cowrie shells, as well as beads, coins and paint. <SEP> <P3-S0> The Yoruba religion, comprising the traditional religious concepts and practices of the Yoruba people, is found primarily in southwestern Nigeria and the adjoining parts of Benin, and Togo, commonly known as Yorubaland. <P3-S1>  Yoruba religion is ancestral or partially ancestral to the Afro-American religions Santería, Trinidad Orisha, Umbanda, Brujería, Hoodoo, Candomblé, Quimbanda, Orisha, Xangô de Recife, Xangô do Nordeste, Comfa, Espiritismo, Santo Daime, Candomblé, Abakuá, Kumina, Winti, Sanse, Cuban Vodú, Dominican Vudú, Louisiana Voodoo, Haitian Vodou, and Vodun. <P3-S2>  Yoruba religious beliefs are part of "itan", the complex cultural concepts which make up the Yoruba society.
