In Igbo cosmology, Anyanwu stands as a formidable deity intimately tied to the sun, embodying not just light but the essence of knowledge, fortune, and profound wisdom.

Beyond illumination, she is a guardian of life, health, and justice, inspiring diligence, productivity, and the well-being of her people. Emblemized by a sun disk, Anyanwu symbolizes the dawn of a new day, a beacon of hope and eternal rebirth.
