Shango Bracelet

Single strand adjustable bracelet associated with Orisha Shango. 

Shango is often associated with the "divine masculine." As an Orisha of thunder and lightning, Shango represents the power and strength of male energy, which is why he is often depicted as a warrior, a leader, and a protector.

Since Shango embodies many traits associated with traditional masculinity, such as courage, bravery, and assertiveness, he is seen as a symbol of male virility and sexual energy, as well as the father figure and protector of his followers.

Men will often turn to Shango for his guidance and blessings to embody these qualities in their lives. The Orisha is seen as a mentor to young men, teaching them to be strong and confident and to take on leadership roles in their communities.
