Ọya (Yorùbá: Ọya, also known as Oyá or Oiá; Yàńsàn-án or Yansã; and Iansá or Iansã in Latin America) is an orisha of winds, lightning, and violent storms, death, and rebirth. She is similar to the Haitian lwa Maman Brigitte who is syncretized with the Catholic Saint Brigit
Oya is actually the opposite of death; she is symbolic of the air that humans breathe, and she can perpetuate life or death with her wrath (i.e., hurricanes, tornadoes). Practitioners of the religion believe she is Olofi's (Oludumare: God in the Yoruba tradition) secretary, informing him of all Earthly events.
Oya is popularly known as the goddess of weather. She can call forth lightning, storms, tornadoes and earthquakes. Whatever weather conditions she feels like bringing about, she does. Oya is also associated with funerals, part of her duty is to carry the souls of the dead to the afterlife

Australian Aboriginal religion and mythology is the sacred spirituality represented in the stories performed by Aboriginal Australians within each of the language groups across Australia in their ceremonies. Aboriginal spirituality includes the Dreamtime (the Dreaming), songlines, and Aboriginal oral literature.
Aboriginal spirituality often conveys descriptions of each group's local cultural landscape, adding meaning to the whole country's topography from oral history told by ancestors from some of the earliest recorded history. Most of these spiritualities belong to specific groups, but some span the whole continent in one form or another.

BAIAME ~ THE MAKER OF ALL THINGS
The creator god and sky father
In Australian Aboriginal mythology, Baiame (or Biame, Baayami, Baayama or Byamee) was the creator god and sky father in the Dreaming of several Aboriginal Australian peoples of south-eastern Australia, such as the Wonnarua, Kamilaroi, Guringay, Eora, Darkinjung, and Wiradjuri peoples.
Baiame appointed the Ngemba people as custodians of Ngunnhu under Aboriginal Law and bid them responsible of its use and maintenance, but he was a benevolent god who encouraged fellowship and fairness.
