Ogun

The Lord of Iron and the pioneer of civilization. Ogun is the blacksmith, the soldier, and the engineer who clears the path for all other Orishas with his machete. He represents the raw, creative energy of labor and the technological advancement of humanity. He is a solitary spirit of the forest who demands absolute truth and blood-oaths. He is the iron in your blood and the tool in your hand—the one who reminds us that every breakthrough requires a sacrifice of sweat and steel.
