Cotton (frequently called ou in the Yoruba context) is a fundamental element in Santería and the Orisha-Ifá Rule due to its symbolism of purity, whiteness, peace, and freshness. It is primarily used to invoke the energy of Obatalá.
- Head (Ori) invocation: This is the most common use. Cotton is placed on the head during rituals to cool the mind, bring tranquility, stability, peace, and health.
- Spiritual cleansing and protection: It is used to cleanse the aura or absorb negative or "heavy" energies from the body, as it has absorbent properties.
- Attention to Obatalá: Being the quintessential white plant/material, it is used to adorn or place inside Obatalá's bowls, representing his purity.
- Protection of the navel: It is common to use cotton to cover the navel (often with a little cocoa butter) on ceremony days for energetic protection.
- Handling of Egun (spirits/ancestors): It is used in rituals of attention to the dead or in the Eggun staff for cleansing.
