Patrons of the Division 21 Botanica on the Grand Concourse in the Bronx, make money offerings to San Miguel, a fierce protector. The figure stands near the door, decorated with lights and flowers. Supplicants tie money around the light cord, use the holy water standing in a dish nearby and offer prayers to their patron saint, who stands with a spear, killing a demon.
