Psychopomps are often a specific type of Otherworldly messenger, as they guide the dead to their destination. Almost all cosmologies have them: famously, Hermes, Baron Samedi and Maman Brigitte, the Norse Valkyries, ravens across the world, and countless more.

Psychopomps are creatures, spirits, angels, or deities whose responsibility is to escort newly deceased souls to the afterlife. Their role is not to judge the deceased, but simply to guide them. They have been depicted as entities, horses, deer, dogs, & birds. https://t.co/cHHFWoPlDD
