He is often depicted holding a staff or cane, and is associated with the number three. In some traditions, Elegua is also associated with the planet Mercury and the element of fire.



Elegua is often invoked for protection, guidance, and for help in making important decisions. Offerings to Elegua may include food, cigars, and other small gifts.
