Do you know the Pomba Gira Gigana da Estrada?
The Gypsy of the Road is one of the many Pombas Giras of candomblé and umbanda, and like each one of them, also has unique characteristics. She is known for being extremely beautiful, free, fearless, and defiant of macho standards, thus being very powerful in the spheres of seduction, love, finances, cleansing of paths, and unloading.
This entity is recognized as a female version of the Exu, for it also acts as a messenger between the human world and the divine, and presents itself on the material plane through incorporation. It adopts the gypsy tradition and religion and has experience in gypsy oracles and magic, and can transfer its clairvoyant powers to the medium.
For those who seek brilliance, charm, sensuality, autonomy in love, the pursuit and fulfillment of desires, and the opening of paths, the Gypsy of the Road usually likes to receive offerings and requests in areas that have dirt roads, especially on Mondays. If they are made with devotion and faith, she will willingly answer those who seek her.
To get to know how this Pomba Gira works, as well as the prayers and offerings that can be made to her, please read the following.
Understanding more about the Pomba Gira Gypsy of the Road
The Gypsy Palm of the Road has its own history, as well as other names and peculiar ways of acting, which can sometimes make one wonder if the attraction it produces is a malicious act toward men. If you want to understand these points and clear up this doubt, read the topics below.
Origin and history
One feature that makes Road Gypsy stand out is that she tells about herself in a song, this being an excerpt:
"I am the she-wolf; I am the jungle; I am the edge and the path. [...]
I do the walking; without having to get tired; I walk several paths; the important thing is to walk."
The story of this Pomba Gira is lonely and difficult. It is said that she was born in Germany, the daughter of parents who followed the religion of the Celts, thus being Druids. Therefore, from an early age she learned about healing, herbs and nature phenomena, and drew attention for being a very beautiful girl.
During this period, the Holy Inquisition was active throughout Europe hunting and eliminating followers of any pagan religions, such as the Celts. For this reason, even while hiding their belongings, the gypsy's parents were denounced, and Inquisition officials sentenced them to death. She, on the other hand, because she was still a girl, was spared and taken to Italy to serve a bishop.
After much trying to escape, she finally managed to stab whoever captured her and escape, thanks to the help of a guard, who charged her for sexual favors.
She traveled through Italy intending to return to Germany, but the wars there made her head for France. Surviving and traveling the roads at night, she was aware of the harsh reality and cruelty of many men.
In France, she settled in a small house near a village, where she could practice her religion, and was sought after by those who asked for help. Winning the trust of that small village, she lived for years in peace, without marrying, because she no longer wanted to suffer again.
Eventually, the Holy Inquisition found her and convicted her of witchcraft. She was tortured and hanged at a village crossroads, and many villagers were also killed. Her spirit, which had been wandering for revenge, was spiritually collected, and she then understood her mission to use her knowledge to help those in need.
For this reason, her name was established as Pomba Gira Gypsy of the Road, because both her physical body and her spirit have traveled and known many roads.
Known names of the Road Gypsy
The name Pomba Gira Gypsy of the Road is the most well-known and established, but this same deity also has a few other names. The most well-known today are: Pomba Gira Gypsy of the Beach, Pomba Gira of the East, Pomba Gira Rosa Vermelha, Pomba Gira of the Souls, and Pomba Gira of the Pandeiro.
Manifestations and performance
The Gypsy of the Road works on the self-esteem of those who ask for her help, helping them to be more confident, more determined, more sure of themselves, and consequently, also more seductive and attractive.
Thus, this healing and work results in a more enlightened soul and a more balanced mind, helping in the resolution of emotional problems and in the decisions of financial issues. Also, the positive change that comes from within shows itself on the outer side, as vanity towards oneself manifests itself in a greater care for one's appearance.
If the person is having love problems, this spiritual treatment and assistance from the deity will eliminate the feelings of sadness and suffering, and the Gypsy will guide her to find worthwhile love partners, from casual relationships to true love.
For the purpose of giving prosperity in business, it is said that the Gypsy can be offered a yellow rose on a wide highway, and for good luck in sentimental life, a red rose on a more rural road.
Which Exu does the Gypsy of the Road work with?
When it comes to the religions of Umbanda and Candomblé, it is common to reflect on which entities work alone or together. In the case of the Cigana da Estrada, generally speaking, she doesn't resort to joint works with Exus. Even so, when they occur, they are usually with Zé Pelintra.
Is Pomba Gira da Estrada an evil entity?
Because she is known as a seductive entity who does not let herself be controlled by male desires, the doubt may arise as to whether she is evil toward men or not. The answer is: no, she never intends to cause any harm, neither in men nor in people in general, and to fear the Gypsy of the Road is to not know her origin and her action in the emergence of the feminine.
She works to rescue the self-esteem and confidence that women often end up losing as they encounter men throughout their lives who don't value them.
Since the Gypsy is a spirit of free woman and gifted with the gift of clairvoyance, she is a powerful counselor who understands and sees the reality that many women need to see, and thus helps female souls to empower themselves and emerge in the most beautiful and liberating way.

The 7 red candles must be lit and fixed on the ground. The flame from the candles must be used to light the 7 cigarettes, and then they must be placed next to the candles.
Next, a circle can be formed on the floor by the red rose petals, i.e. the offering will be inside this circle. Alongside the candles and cigarettes, the champagne glass should also be placed inside the circle.
If it is an offering for love, the name of the person you love can be written 7 times on a piece of red silk and left on the spot.

Take everything to the fire and mix well with a wooden spoon. After turning off the fire, add the perfume. Then, when it has warmed up, wet yourself with the mixture from the neck down, asking the Gypsy of the Roads that men are attracted to you.
Finally, when you come out of the bath, dress in red and light a red candle. Place the leftovers under a large beautiful tree or in a busy square. This bath can be done on a Monday or Friday.
