AFA OR IFA THE SACRED ANAGO SYSTEM OF DIVINATION IN EWE VODOUN
Ifa is the revealing of the Destiny of each being and the earth itself.
Ifa is the word of the entire Creation, the existence of the Universe, what we call Eledumare.
The Irunmole next to Ifa is Orunmila and his Priests and Priestesses use his Oracle to look into your Destiny.
An Ifa or Òrìsà divination is always followed by the performing of Ebo, or sacrifice, which is like a medicine that cures your problem/illness or promote your good fortune.
Sometimes the divination shows that the person who ask a consultation needs to worship a specifically Irunmole, or they have to receive it in order to comply their Destiny.
Why is so important to know our Destiny? Because when we come from Orun (Sky) to the Aye (Earth) we born with a Destiny and the complete fulfillment of it will give us peace, prosperity, good luck and satisfaction.
Some of us will naturally follow their Destiny but others will lose it due to bad choices.
Others again are born with a bad Destiny and this is why they need to know it and change it by Initiation into Ifa or Irunmole.
You may ask us: “If it is Destiny, then why are you saying that I can change it somehow”?.
Let me tell you: there are paths of the Destiny that you can never change, other paths are destined for you but it is your choice on earth if take it or not, and when to take it. Likewise there are paths that you will never undertake, no matter how you will work hard for it, if they are not destined to you, you will never have it.
We believe that life starts in the Orun, there we chose our Ori (Head or Destiny) and then we come to Aye, forgetting about our choice.
In the Ifa Cult everything is about Destiny, Good Character, Remembering the Ancestors and Worshipping the Irunmole and the Earth itself and to live a good life experience.
