He is the master of fire. It is said that during the process of creating the Earth, he absorbed energy from the bowels of the planet.

Children of Aggayu Sola

His sons are violent, irascible, angry and physically very strong. Their anger resembles an erupting volcano. They are also sensitive and appreciate tenderness. These are easy prey for women with fragile appearance because they like to protect the weak.

Aggayú takes long steps and raises his feet very high, as if walking on obstacles. At the same time, he wields the air with his oche. He likes to carry children on his shoulders.

Aggayu Solá is unique in nature and has no roads although some sources said he has. He teaches us the importance of being strong, steady and level-headed in life, and he supports us through trials and tribulations.
