In Umbanda the Pretos Velhos are entities of great wisdom and humility, represented by the image of elderly Africans who lived through the period of slavery in Brazil. They are fundamental in Umbanda practice, acting as true spiritual guides and counselors.

Here are the key points about this line:

• Symbol of Wisdom: Represent patience, experience and resilience. Through their teachings they convey lessons about the value of love, forgiveness and overcoming earthly difficulties.
• Role: They are known for their power of spiritual work and counseling. With a gentle tone and serene gestures, they attend to consultants in terreiros offering advice aimed at emotional balance and spiritual cleansing.
• Typical Elements: They often use simple elements from daily life and nature in their healings and work, such as smoke (pipe), coffee (unsweetened) and herbs.
• Appearance: Although they carry the fluidic clothing of enslaved elders, this form is a spiritual choice to demonstrate the overcoming of suffering and the achievement of wisdom through the marks that life imposed on them.

In short, the Pretos Velhos are the "grandparents" of the religion welcoming those who seek comfort, direction and a deeper connection with spirituality through simplicity.
