Oshun Obra Prayer
"Beloved divine presence, I am what dwells in me. Make it open and pure for the Creator to act in my life, In my being. Bringing peace and quiet to my spirit, While I search and wait for my other half. I ask that our souls be recognized, In the here and now, By the looks, by the touches, by the energy. And may together we have the courage to live and assume our eternal love. I thank you for having the opportunity to evolve day by day, I understand that past experiences, negative or positive, only prepare me for the arrival of my other half, looking for emotional wisdom and to believe that I am worthy of that wonderful encounter. Oshun with the permission of Yemaya I ask that recognition be immediate, Let our vibration be tuned. Expanding Love, Light and Security. For everyone who is on the same page. And let us serve as an example, Radiating love and complicity. I feel the presence I am expanding my call trina, And decree that from now on my real or unreal fears will be burned in the inner fire. And may the happiness and emotional joy I feel now expand and reach you my beloved still unknown. I accept divine time and recognize that this meeting will take place at the right time. I recognize that each being has its learning time just as I have it. I know I will have to cultivate patience and faith as my journey continues. Decree that what is mine by divine right will come to me.
So be it, and so it is!"
