Large Nun 20"

The nun doll in Santería and espiritism (especially in the Cuban and Caribbean tradition) is used primarily as a representation of a spiritual entity, often a "spiritual nun" or a protective guide that works in the "white line" or healing line. These dolls, sometimes dressed in black and white habits, serve as a vessel or energetic connection point to honor these spirits, request their help, protection, and wisdom on altars. 

• Representation of Spiritual Guides: They act as a physical form to honor guides or ancestors who manifest as religious or comforting figures.
• Altars and Ceremonies: They are placed on Santería altars or spiritual tables, being dressed in satin habits, scapulars, and rosaries to attract virtues of peace, healing, and purity.
• Energy Link: They are used by practitioners to establish an "emotional bond" and communication with the entity, helping to understand spiritual life
