Destiny Ebbs & Flows
It is not still. Destiny is an ever weaving tapestry. Even the ones chosen before your birth are fluctuating as the energy fluctuates in your life. Still... you are the writer of your story. Which chapter will unfold? What will you create in your journey. Divination is not simply about learning the what. It's the why and how to move based on the energy. Learn more about Ifa as a tradition and divination below.
The Priestess
Iyanifa Daniyah Fa Omi Sango
September 2021... Actually the journey began in March 2020. Opening up and discovering. When I met my Iyalode, I was on the path and didn't even know it. I journeyed forward to the mat in September 2021. Yemoja, Sango, The Mothers, and Orunmilla all calling their essence within me. My ancestors rejoicing at this Rebirth.
I needed time alone with Ifa to learn just what MY practice would feel like. Now, Spirit is asking me to share this part of me more intentionally.
The Essence of Ifa in My Own Words
My Iyalode gave me the 16 World Truths. The resonated so deeply. I couldn't understand why someone would be against the tradition, even if you didn't practice it.

Understanding Ifa Divination
The Metaphysics of Your Journey to Your Destiny
Ifa is like many other divination systems. It brings clarity to the energy around you and a situation. Are you going through an ending or a rebirth? Are you being persistent or hard headed? What new opportunity is coming?
The Holy Oracle (Odu) is a collection wisdom handed down as stories and parables that illustrate the energy. It also includes medicine (Ebo/Offerings) to either transmute less favorable manifestation or give momentum to positive manifestation.
