Honoring Mawu Lisa, African Goddesses of Creation
In Dahomey mythology, Mawu Lisa were the supreme creator deities, representing the moon and fertility. Mawu, the male deity, was associated with the sun and day, while Lisa, the female deity, represented the moon and night. Together they symbolized the balance of opposites and the continuity of life. Born of Nana Buluku, Mawu Lisa may grant life and aid in times of grief. She can offer us strength, all while illuminating our weaknesses. He reminds us that there is always peace in the chaos.
