BRAZILIAN CULTURE: JACI & GUARACI

Hej :)
 Today let's talk about Tupã's children, yay.


Jaci is the moon goddess and guardian of the night. Protector of lovers and reproduction, one of its roles is to awaken the homesickness in the hearts of warriors and hunters, rushing back to their wives. Tupa's Daughter, Guaraci's wife and sister.Her "equivalents" are Vishnu (Hindu) and Isis (Egyptian).



Guaraci is the son of Tup and the god of sun. He helped his father in the creation of all living beings. He is also the guardian of the creatures during the day. In the passage from night to day - the meeting between Jaci Guaraci - the wives ask for protection for husbands to go hunting. His "equivalents" are Brahma (Hindu) and Osiris (Egyptian).
