Iyanifa Owinni Adina Durosinmi Fa Omi Sango

Hi - I'm Iya Owinni. I am an Iyanifa for the African American Diaspora. I specialize in helping Black people of the African American Diaspora cultivate a more aligned relationship with their Divine Self through the teachings of Ifa built on foundation of Self Love.

Embracing the wisdom of Ifa through Isese and practically applying the tradition to the Black Experience in America.

For the Diaspora

Our Cousins outside of the State, in spite of horrific circumstances, gave rise to new denominations of Orisha religion and traditions. Now here in the African American Diaspora, ISESE is showing herself to the descendants of her practitioners. I am here for you.

African American Iyanifa

I am a born and raised Georgia Peach. I grew up in an Abrahamic religion and found Isese in my 40s. I understand the challenge of being on the struggle bus. I also know that the medicine of Ifa helped me stop accepting that as my life. And now, as Iyanifa, I do the same for the people in my community I'm meant to support.

Community

African and African American spirituality both are inherently communal. It is community that makes us powerful. As a community we worship, venerate, learn, and grow together. We have various opportunities for fellowship and communion with the Divine. You don't need to be a full devotee to join in.

Services to Support

As Iyanifa, I offer support from the mundane to the very spiritual. This support can come as simply a consultation, life coaching, spiritual coaching, offerings, or ceremonies.

Divination is the blueprint of our destiny. It is one of the primary means of support for the community. It helps me ensure that we align you to the appropriate other options that will further you to your favorite destiny.

About Ifa

Ifa is the common term used for West African and Diaspora religions associated with the Orishas and the divination system known as Ifa. Ifa is the Wisdom of Nature. Isese Lagba, or Isese for short, is the Mother of the Orisha traditions found within the Diaspora. Isese isn't simply a tradition. It's tradition, religion, it's esoteric mysteries, it's metaphysical concepts, and spiritual science. It's culture. It's medicine. It's a lifestyle. It is how our ancestors related to the Most High/God(dess)/Olodumare within and around themselves.

When you begin to learn more about the religion, you learn that at the heart of it, Isese is a Self Love religion. Walking in our Iwa Pele is Self Love.

"God works in mysterious ways, until you Divine on it." - Iya Owinni

Divination is a conversation between you, the Diviner (Me), Orunmilla, and your Ori (God's Divine Spark in You). It let's you know where you are currently, where you may be headed, is it aligning you to good fortune or not, and next steps. These steps could be to ensure you stay on the right track or mitigate any undesirable outcomes. Click the button below and choose the type of session that works for you.

Ways to be a Part of the Tradition in my Temple

01

To Ile Or Not to Ile

The Temple is the broader community. You can engage with the Temple and not be my godchild. An Ile is a house or spiritual family. It is a more personal, familia, connectio. Ile members have more direct connection to me as well as engagement in the tradition. Not everyone in my Ile is planning to initiate. They appreciate the medicine and wisdom of ifa and the direction of the Ile.

03

Group Learning and Events

There are opportunities to learn with the community, as well as various events. Some events are virtual, and then there are opportunities o come and join us in person. Make sure you are on the mailing list so you can stay in the know.

02

Ijosin, Itadogun, and Ose

Community prayer and divination are hallmarks of the tradition. For my lineage I hold a monthly Ijosin, Orisha worship service. This is open to the public. Ose is our daily veneration. I stream Ose Ola (Ose Ifa) via Zoom and TikTok. Prayer requests are taken via Zoom. Every 17 days is Itadogun, our community divination. We begin with veneration and then hear the Wisdom of Ifa for the next 17 days. Community offerings are given based on the divination. This is hosted via zoom.

04

Ceremonies and Ritual

It may come up in divination that you need to undergo a specific ceremony or receive a shrine. You may feel like full initiation is for you. You may simply need Hand of Ifa. In most cases Divination is required in order to move forward. Ceremony season for my community is May generally.
