AREÍTO OF THE CEMÍES: The Taíno Cemi Song

🌀 Did you know the word HURRICANE comes from Juracán — the storm force of the Taíno goddess Guabancex? The first peoples of Puerto Rico (Borikén), the Dominican Republic & Haiti (Kiskeya/Ayiti), Cuba, and Jamaica left us a pantheon the world almost forgot. Almost. This original cinematic anthem honors the full Taíno pantheon: ⚡ Atabey — Mother of fresh waters & fertility (and her five sacred names) 🌱 Yúcahu Bagua Maórocoti — Supreme spirit of yuca & the sea 🌀 Guabancex, Guataubá & Coatrisquie — the hurricane trinity 🌧️ Boinayel & Márohu — twin spirits of rain and clear skies 🦇 Maquetaurie Guayaba & the opías of Coaybay, land of the dead 🐢 Deminán Caracaracol, Itiba Cahubaba & the birth of humanity 🐕 Opiyelguobirán, Baibrama, Guahayona & more 🔔 Subscribe for more Indigenous mythology brought to life through music — the areíto never ended. #tainomusic #spiritualmusic #spiritual #music #caribbeanhistory #Borinquen #IndigenousMusic #Mythology #PuertoRico #DominicanRepublic #Areito #Cemi
