Os quimbandeiros têm como ponto principal de seu culto a invocação de Exus que na Quimbanda são considerados espíritos das trevas, uns já em estado de evolução, e outros, denominados quiumbas, espíritos atrasadíssimos e que por isso também são chamados obsessores.

 Quimbanda - Definition, explanation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Quimbanda is an Afro-American traditional religion found in Brazil, mostly in urban areas where fl presence is culturally strong (Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais, Maranhão, Pernambuco).
Instead of worshipping the Orishas, like Umbanda, Quimbanda worships an entity named Exu (pronunciation: eshoo) which is not, however, identical to the Christian devil (Exu also plays a role in Umbanda, though he is not worshipped by Umbandists).
Most of the ritual of Quimbanda is based on bloody sacrifice (usually fl hens, goats or frogs), smoking of cigars, drinking of spirits (usually Cachaça or cheap Cognac).

Quimbanda is an Afro-American religion practiced in Brazil.
In most respects a gira of Quimbanda will appear pretty much the same as one of Umbanda, with only a likely shift in the color preferences, which, as with most Bantu religious practice in Brazil and Africa emphasizes red, fl and (sometimes) white, rather than having predominantly white.
The name "Quimbanda" derives from the Kimbundu language of Angola and means Healer or diviner.

 Cachaça
The most notorious of these religions is Quimbanda, which is replete with demon worship, fl magic, grave robbing, debauchery, and blood sacrifice.
Virtually all ceremonies of Quimbanda use cachaça as a libation, and in copious amounts.
The demon-god Exu, who is the most popular spirit in the pantheon, is known to possess his priests and compel them to drink quantities of cachaça that would be otherwise be quite fatal.

To the side of that external label, the cults, driven by Kimbanda and Nganga, they were if transforming, through a cultural dynamics with the religions and European and indigenous religiosities, generating cults as it cuts her, the calundu and the macumba, that in the century XX, formed religious head offices as the Umbanda.
Assim, a quimbanda aparece no discurso umbandista ora como prática inserida na própria Umbanda, através de uma gira de exu, ora como categoria de acusação, onde membros de um terreiro acusam a outros participantes ou terreiros de praticante da magia negra.
Essa, propiciou uma terceira que passou a ser aproveitada por religiosos que utilizam as “possibilidades” da Quimbanda para realizarem feitiços como o de separar ou unir casais, atingir a um desafeto de seu cliente e, dentre outras coisas, desfazer o mal que outro quimbandeiro teria realizado.

Quimbanda as such is quite well known, but nevertheless not very well perseved.
In the context of Brazilian spirituality, it is important to note that Quimbanda is not the "evil brother" or "dark side" of Umbanda, a spiritual tradition founded in 1908 in Brazil.
Quimbanda is not so much a religon but first and foremost a witchcraft-tradition.

 Zé Pelintra (Nganga.org)
He is most widely known in Umbanda and Quimbanda, traditions in which he appeared somewhat later and continues to be popular as both a Caboclo spirit and as an Exú spirit, and is called upon for both good and ill.
In Life, Zé Pelintra loved to drink, smoke fine cigars and cigarettes, play cards, in fact one form of divining with cards is credited to him, and kept the company of women of the street.
One story common in Rio is that he died when he was crushed by a trolley car he was trying to jump on sometime in the 1920s.

 Circe1
Contrary to the pious kardecism of most Macumba branches, the Quimbanda looks like some kind of sexmagick hard-flavoured enough to scare a lot of 'sane' occultists (that is emasculated practitioners of so-called 'white magic').
The Quimbanda was a numerically tiny sect, although cursed and feared by the multitude of spiritualist chapels, "Umbanda" clans and other theosophical boy-scouts of Brazil.
In the second place it became clear that the wrong-doings of the Quimbanda (or rather of one of its hidden cells) were Kindergarten-games compared to the ghoulish excesses camouflaged behind Glorious Churches.

En función de su pasado en otras vidas, la evolución del alma delinea las actitudes del presente, en los trabajos la intención del agente se combina con ello, a escalas que van desde la magia negra hasta las orientadas al bien.
Para la Quimbanda, los Exú son apenas hombres que murieron en la impureza, son espíritus de muertos encadenados al mal, por haber sido humanos tienen mejor penetración para comprender los deseos humanos.
Son entidades que trabajan desde la muerte a favor de las cosas terrenales de los vivos, hacen o ayudan a que resulte lo que la gente pide o invoca, es abrir caminos, puertas, desbrozar malezas, con el fin de ayudar a los hombres en sus propósitos e intereses.

 Macumba, Umbanda, and Orishas in Brazil
"Macumba" (also known as Quimbanda) is the everyday term used by Brazilians in Rio de Janeiro to describe two types of African spirit worship: Candomble (followed in northern State of Bahia) and Umbanda (a newer form originating in Niteroi, in the southern State of Rio de Janeiro between 1900 and November 15, 1908).
Macumba originated with African slaves shipped to Brazil in the 1550's, who continued to worship their African Gods.
This is a simplistic interpretation, however, because the ambivalence between good and evil seems, in reality, to be characteristic of the fundamental myths of this strand of religion, which conceives of the cosmos as divided between different factions, which relate to each other through mystical attacks and defenses.
