Zarabanda/Ogun by Badgersoph
Zarabanda is a spirit of iron and an immensely powerful shaman, sorcerer, healer, and warrior. He is a great ally for those seeking protection, as he is afraid of nothing. Zarabanda may or may not be Ogun. Like Ogun and many other spirits of iron, he objects to the presence of menstruating women. Even if allied with him, do not make offerings when bleeding. In addition to protection, he is invoked for help with employment.
