Meaning of Hut dreams According to Different Culture s And Spirituality.
Hut Dream Symbol 3
BY STEPHEN KLEIN ON NOV 24, 2013 A TO H DREAM SYMBOLS, DREAM DICTIONARY, SYMBOLS STARTING WITH H
Hut – A hut is one of many “home” dreams, indicating your level of security and comfort in your current life. Dreaming that you live in a hut indicates a deep level of dissatisfaction with your current life, and a feeling that your needs are not being met. Further details about the hut give even further insights into the meaning of this dream.
For instance, if the roof leaks or the walls feel like they might fall down, this shows that you are afraid that your life’s security is quickly crumbling away. On the other hand, if the hut is not your residence but is just a place in your dream, the meaning of this symbol also depends on the circumstances and emotions surrounding the dream symbol.
Note: If you have had a dream related to this dream symbol or would like to add something that is related to this topic please leave comment below. Comments are a great way to interact with others who are dreaming about similar topics.

There are often a lot of sexual indications in connection with dream huts. Also a hut, especially if it is a native type hut can indicate ones primitive feelings and urges.
In some initiation rites for males, the boys live in huts shaped like a dragon or crocodile. This is a symbol of a young boy’s struggle to become independent of the mother and the power of the unconsciousness. In a similar way a sweat lodge in a heated hut or tent has a similar note of initiation, in which the dreamer changes from one level to another – a boy into a man; a girl into a woman; a woman or man into an elder of the tribe/family.
Example: There was a girl about 17 and she lived in a small hut that was made up of wood and covered in banana leaves (dead). She was living on her own until a boy about 17 as well came to live with her. He was very sexy but the two were not dating or anything. It was like a room mate. Well the girls father that lived a few huts away (the huts were spaced pretty far apart, like 3 acres apart, but it was a small village) the place seemed to have no bad weather anytime or anything; it was sunny all the time and everyone had tanned skin. No one ever got sunburned. Well the father came over and saw the boy and thought that they were having sex but they weren’t. The girl went to her father and explained that he saw things wrong. So they got on better.
Example: I looked and saw it was badly done, and was seeing how to smooth it. But the place I was going to work was across the estate about three hundred yards away, where there were a lot of small huts. Then I was driving away with the thought I was going to start work the next morning.
Example: We walked a bit further and came to a hut beside the road. we laid down behind the hut in some long grass to make love but suddenly I saw a snake and jumped up. It turned out to be only a bicycle pump but by now we were aware of other people nearby and the moment had gone.
Useful Questions and Hints:
What was my relationship with the hut?
Did I face any trials or was it in any way sexual?
Was I in a tribal or primitive environment?

Association: - Basic needs or old needs, - retreat, - modesty. Question: - Where in my life I am ready to be content?
Psychologically:
In the positive sense: 'Place is also in the smallest hut' - in this sense a symbol for security under modest circumstances - and for a 'sure place' in a menacing situation, a symbol for shelter for (limited) time. In the negative sense: The small house (translates: our body) in whose narrowness the soul can take damage and the unconscious may give the instruction to go out more from itself, not always to bake only small bread rolls, but to act even something, so that one comes out of the instantaneous narrowness. Hut (Kate) can also point out to the fact that one may not be presumptuous, but should be content with the achieved. Also the admonition to more patience can stand behind it. If one lives in a poor hut, one must presumably wait long, until the life situation changes favourably.

Dreams About Houses
What does a dream about a house mean?
House Dream Meaning.
In dream psychology, “houses” are related to our own psyche.
A house represents the temple of the mind a reflection of our mental state. The house is a reminder to look after yourself and that you need to think about the exterior of your life. An empty house means missed opportunities. The upper floors can imply your own mind and brain. The middle floors the chest, the first floor indicates your digestive system and ground floor your legs and feet. Dreams about houses can include many things, it could be a past house, new house, moving house, purchasing a house or even just a house that you have never been in before. There is a question that is often left with you after waking “what does the house mean!” I have experienced dreams of houses throughout my life. I remember when I was about 10 years old I had a dream of a house. About a year later we moved into that house. I must say, as I have got older (in my forties) I rarely now dream of houses I am going to live in. I last had a dream about a house 6 months ago, I dreamed of a detached house by a river with flats in the back garden. Houses and rooms in dreams can appear in many ways and have different meanings.
Dreams about houses are extremely common. The truth is, everyone has a house dream every now and then. In dream lore, the house represents our internal thoughts. Every room is associated with how we are “feeling.” The house dream might range from frightening experience to an inspiring or enlightening dream. This is due to the fact that houses are a part of our everyday life. In fact, we live in rooms most of the time right! I am going to answer the dream symbolism and significance so scroll down.
Dreaming about your old house: We have all had dreams about a childhood house, or a home that you lived in the past. This dream can indicate that you are having feelings of the past. An old house seen in a dream is quite a positive omen it is like a bridge that connects us to a new horizon. There can be fulfillment if the old house was in good shape. This can imply that you will think about actions that you have set yourself.
What’s the dream meaning of a house? As I have already mentioned above, in health the house can represent parts of the body. So take note, of what you could see in the dream and the rooms. To see a house on fire in a dream illustrates something needs repair and points to poor health. To dream of a house denotes dissatisfaction in your “home” life. In older dream lore, this dream indicates a desire to start a new life or change something and represents “you.” To dream that the house is chasing you means that you’re running away from something you’re carrying inside. If the house was flying or floating, it represents your hidden feelings. This dream means you are currently in the process of soul-searching. However, it can mean that you are struggling with feeling enlightened or aware. This dream means that you will have high expectations for yourself, even if everyone else expects nothing from you. A luxurious house can represent your own ambitions and advancement to reach your goals. Watching a house collapse in a dream can indicate not reaching goals. I am going to quickly run over some popular dreams of the house here: A balcony is connected to how people see us. A glass house in a dream can be a reflection that things are going to succeed in the future. To clean a house in a dream implies you wish to clean up your goals. Seeing cleaners cleaning a house represents a future that is bright. A bird in a house in a dream indicates that you are feeling trapped in life. Water or floods inside a house indicates that you are feeling emotional about problems going forward. A dusty house in a dream according to my older dream books indicates you are trying to cover up something important. A water leak in a dream or a burst pipe can suggest that someone will provide some emotional complications going forward. A house that is falling down or “falls” in a dream can indicate that something is not what it seems. Moving house in a dream is a suggestion you will move from one phase to the next. Someone breaking into a house in a dream can indicate that you feel “threatened” in waking life.
What does do dream about a house fire mean? Dreams about a house fire can represent that you are feeling areas of your life not as a sea. It can be quite a worrying dream but it is common to see your house burning down. The flames spiritually connected to protection and purification. If you set your own house on fire it indicates you wish to change. Seeing a house on fire that you do not know in real life suggests that you are content with your life you are suffering from a lack of energy. To be inside your house when it is on fire, in a dream, indicates that there is something that you need to take note of immediately. If firefighters entered the home in a dream it can suggest you are going to be rescued by a hero. If you escape the house fire it can suggest that you are on the road to a better future. The biblical meaning of a house on fire can represent cleansing as well as destruction. If we turn to dream psychology, Sigmund Freud believed that a fire is connected to our thoughts and desires in life, and that you need to review these. The home as I already mentioned is a representation of the "self." So, bringing this together the dream about a house fire can indicate that you need to start a new.
What is the Islamic interpretation of a new house in a dream? Many of you have contacted me about the Islamic meaning of a house dream so I have carried out some research to find out the meaning. The Islamic interpretation of seeing or buying a new house in a dream is associated with abundance and progress. You will experience success on both personal and professional level. Houses in dreams also represent how you see yourself. To get the right interpretation, you must pay attention to details such as the color, the size and the type of house. If you dreamed of the front of a house like a front door or porch, it represents the part you’re showing to the world. It can imply that you are pretending to be something you’re not and people see you as mysterious and calm. However, if you dream of the back of a house, it denotes the secrets and emotions you’re trying to keep to yourself. If the house was brand new in your dream, it also represents some new beginnings and expanding your horizons. To move into a brand new home indicates transformations on a personal level. The new house also reveals your wish to change or upgrade your life.

It can indicate the feeling of “moving” from one situation to another in a symbolic way. The dream could include many aspects of the house. A dream could feature: moving to a new house, moving into a new apartment, packing and moving, moving in with someone or even moving to a new city. The dream of “moving” does indicate a change. Changing one's way of thinking and the obstacles we find when going through life. Often, I have come across moving dreams like this that are related to changes in relationships with a partner. This can indicate either an argument or your subconscious telling you how to “deal with fears” in life.

If you are building a new house or someone else is building a home for you in your dream, it implies that you need to work on aspects of your personality and improve your attitude. Sometimes, seeing a construction site can indicate that you need people to help you improve life and upgrade your career. I like to say: a little help never hurt anyone. Often, these dreams appear when we need relaxation to cope with the emotional chaos.
Alternatively, such a dream represents your transformation from someone carefree into a matured, responsible person. The construction of a new house in your dream denotes the transitional phases you’re going through. Maybe you are becoming more aware of your emotions? A new home indicates that you are ready to enter the world with a completely different mindset than the one you’ve had before.

In other words, you’re trying to become a better person for you and the people you love. This dream also foretells benefiting from your past actions. If you dreamed of a pink house, your dream has a totally different meaning. As you know, the house in dreams reveals how you see yourself.

Hand mill Dream Explanation — If one sees a huge hand mill in the center of a town in a dream, it means war and destruction and especially if he sees it grinding rocks or emitting fire or sparks. Otherwise, it means a plague if the hand mill is grinding spoiled and moldy grains, mud, or spoiled meat. If one sees the millstone tilted in a dream, it means rising prices. If the hand mill is turning with nothing to grind in the dream, it means toiling aimlessly. If the hand mill turns using a wheel in the dream, it means prosperity. If one sees the hand mill turning and not grinding in a dream, it means travels. If it turns for no useful purpose in a dream, it denotes the nearing of one's death. A pair of small hand grinders in a dream represent two loathsome partners that no one can correct or guide.

DISCOVER A DREAM SYMBOL: The House
AuthorHollye Hurst, Ph.D.
How to explore a dream symbol? Let’s start with a common dream image – a house. A house in a dream may be a grand castle or a simple hut. The dream house can appear as a spacious urban loft, a cozy country cottage or an intriguing igloo. A house in a dream may be totally unfamiliar to you or one as easy to recognize as your childhood home or grandmother’s house. The setting of the dream is very important. Any storyteller of literature or film knows the importance of setting and a house appearing in a dream is an important part of its setting.
When pondering the meaning of a dream image you can begin by reflecting upon your actual life experience. In the case of a house, contemplate your actual experience of home – isn’t it an extension of you? In this sense the house in a dream can reflect your current state of being both psychologically and physically. A house is your very own personal and intimate space. It is your inside, private and personal space that is separate from the outside, public space. It is a protected space that reflects who you currently are. This reflection on both the universal nature of a dream image and on your personal experience reveals the meaning of the symbol in your dream.
To get down to the basics, it can be helpful for the dreamer to imagine they’re describing what the dream image is to an individual who is from another planet and who has no familiarity with life on earth. This technique is useful because it helps break through preconceived notions about dream symbols, particularly those we would consider familiar, like a house. A dreamer may associate a house with a place of security, comfort, protection, familiarity or belonging. But whatever words the dreamer chooses, in Dream Discovery™ the dreamer’s own words reveal the meaning of the dream image for them.
If a dreamer explored an unfamiliar house in their dream it may indicate they are in a time ripe for new possibilities they have yet to explore in waking life. In this case the dream is encouraging the dreamer to be open to new life experiences that their conscious mind might dismiss.
A house is a complex and personal dream symbol. The different areas of a house in a dream may represent different realms of the dreamer’s psychological world. Unfamiliar rooms may indicate there are unexplored areas within, new internal potentials to experience. If the dreamer did not explore a room or area due to anxiety while dreaming, they can explore that space by re-imagining themselves there. At My Dream Life we call this Dream Re-Living™ because it brings the dream to life in the present moment. Another option is to use the dream incubation method on subsequent nights to Re-Live the dream again while sleeping and explore that space (as described in the Dream Life Blog “Creative Dream Problem Solving”).
Here at My Dream Life we support the dreamer in exploring options, even anxiety producing ones, rather than avoiding them since the same fears will likely return in another dream and may be limiting the dreamer in daily life. Dreamers can have confidence in exploring the unknown in a dream since their psyche is leading them there to experience something yet revealed, resolved or realized – a new chapter in life.
As a reflection of who you are, a house in a dream that is familiar to you can be a marker of time. It is fairly common to dream of returning to a house you knew in childhood. A dream of a house from the past may reflect a wish to return to a time of childhood openness. However a familiar house can also signify a recurrence in the dreamer’s life of concerns or issues from a past era and it can be helpful to consciously make that association.
For example, one dreamer had several dreams in the setting of her childhood home from ages 11-16. When engaged in dream discovery she remembered that era in her life as clearly marked by her parent’s divorce. In her current waking life she was
dream discovery she remembered that era in her life as clearly marked by her parent’s divorce. In her current waking life she was once again experiencing similar feelings of insecurity in her relationships and had been surprised by some of her behavior. The dream clearly communicated that the childhood experience of her parent’s divorce was being stimulated by her current situation. The dreamer’s waking mind did not have this insight. It needed the help of her dreaming mind. Understanding that her current behavior was linked to a past experience gave this dreamer enough perspective to feel more free in the situation since she could now make choices more consciously. And, as is often the case, the dream gave the dreamer more guidance for being successful in her situation.
Here are some questions to guide dreamers in continuing to discover the meaning of a house in a dream – similar questions can be used for other dream symbols
How does it feel to experience this particular house? It should be emphasized that the dreamer’s own words reveal the meaning of the experience for them. Does the house feel inviting? Interesting? Foreboding? Sad? Briefly describe the personality of this house. Imagine the house had a voice to express itself – what would it say?
What are your personal associations about this house? Does it seem familiar? Has the dreamer ever experienced a similar environment? If the house is familiar, explore any associations to this particular house and the time period the dreamer recalls when they think about this house.
Is the space small or large? How does the dreamer experience the smallness or spaciousness? Does it feel confining or cozy? Overwhelming or welcoming with possibility?
What is the lighting like? How does it feel? Does it provoke a mood? What are the colors? What feelings do the colors invite?
Is the house new and modern? Or is it old? Does it seem to need repairs?
Cliff House, San Francisco, 1894
What is unique or interesting about this particular house? Since dream symbols can be viewed as reflecting an aspect of the dreamer is there anything about this house that seems like the dreamer’s personality or current circumstances? Is there anything about it the dreamer wishes they experienced more in waking life? In the case of a house image an example might be a feeling of spaciousness or security in life. If the dreamer gave the house a voice, what might this dream house have to say?
The dreamer’s own experience and insight reveals the meaning of the dream for them.
In a nutshell, what is happening in or around this house? Does the situation seem to reflect current concerns, challenges, dilemmas or perhaps desires in the dreamer’s waking life? In the dream, who lives in the house? How does the dreamer feel about the inhabitants? Are they familiar? What are the contents of this house? Do any objects seem significant? Familiar?
Is the house on a single floor or are there various levels? What is the setting, is it urban or rural? Is it located in an upscale enclave or a destitute hinterland? Is it on a dead end street or in the middle of a freeway? Surrounded by water? Perched on a perilous cliff? Anything is possible in a dream!
The different areas of a house in a dream may represent different realms of the dreamer’s psychological world. If the dream activity takes place in a particular part of the house is it the kitchen, attic, bedroom or bathroom? Different rooms suggest different activities and meaning. For example, the attic and the basement are typically where things from the past are stored.
If the dream activity takes place in the kitchen what does the dreamer associate with a kitchen? To get down to the basics, how would they imagine describing a kitchen to someone from another planet? Generally, a kitchen is a place of change and transformation. The raw becomes the cooked and provides nourishment. The kitchen is also involved with the preservation of health. What are the specifics of this particular kitchen in the dream?
The bathroom is a also a place associated with the preservation of health through activities related to cleanness, release and elimination. It is a very private space and can also be associated with feelings of shame. Does the dreamer have more specific associations? The bedroom is the other very private space and one we associate with rest, sex and surrender to sleep (and dreams!).
Conversely the porch, portico or gateway is a threshold or place of transition between the outer, public world and the inner, private life. This is the space where both guests and strangers may first appear and be invited in or may intrude into our private space.
As a reflection of the dreamer’s state of being, the house in a dream can reflect not only the dreamer’s current psychological state but also their physical well-being. If the house is in need of repair or is otherwise in disarray, the dreamer might consider getting a medical check especially if they have been ignoring what they think is an insignificant symptom.
If the house has missing or broken windows, the dreamer’s associations to windows can offer insight. Does the dreamer describe windows as keeping warmth inside or as a protection from the elements? Or do they focus on windows as a place of transparency where others can view the dreamer’s inner dwelling space and the dreamer can keep abreast of what lies beyond their inner sanctum? Among other things, missing or broken windows can suggest personal boundaries in relationships may be broken and need attention.
Finally, in Dream Discovery™ the dreamer would ask how are the specifics of this dream image relevant to my life experience right now? This is always an important question since, even though dreams can sometimes refer to previous times, they tend to reveal something we may not be paying attention to now or need to sort out in our current life.
Discovering Other Dream Symbols
Dreamers can use the questions offered here as a reference for beginning to explore other dream symbols. You might first try it with another common dream symbol such as a vehicle that can express how you’re experiencing your current capacity for navigating through life. Dreamers gain fluency in symbolic language by contemplating the various meanings for dream symbols and considering the parallels between these associations and what is happening in daily life.
Keeping a dream journal offers the opportunity to explore dream images over time. The Dream Discovery Workbook is a guided dream journal produced by My Dream Life and available here. Participation in a dream group supports dreamers in learning the language of symbols and reflecting upon the multiple levels of meaning of dream images. You’re most welcome to JOIN US at My Dream Life in a Dream Circle.
A dream dictionary cannot reveal the depth of your dream experience. Dream dictionaries that give a specific meaning for a dream symbol are helpful only as a starting point for becoming familiar with symbolic language.
Some people interested in dreams theorize that there are typical meanings associated with symbols that persist across diverse cultures and times and these can be cataloged for general reference in a dream dictionary. There is an element of truth in this however the personal feelings and associations of the dreamer reveal much more about the dream’s specific meaning and message for them than a dream dictionary ever will. For example, a tiger in a dream can mean one thing to someone whose favorite childhood toy was a stuffed tiger and something quite different to a person who goes on safari. As mythologist Joseph Campbell cautioned, “Don’t lose the message in the symbol. When the symbol is considered a fact, you’ve mistaken the message.”
It is important to remember that the dreamer’s own experience and insight reveals the meaning of their dream symbol that is personal to them. At My Dream Life the Dream Discovery philosophy holds that a single dream image can have multiple meanings for an individual and those meanings can evolve over time as the person continues to reflect upon the image. An extraordinary depth of self-awareness and wisdom can be inspired from discovery of your dreams.
Dream symbols are like multi-faceted diamonds. When we appreciate a dream symbol from different points of view, the light of consciousness illuminates each facet in all its uniqueness revealing multiple meanings for all dreamers.
Part of the value of a dream group is that the wisdom of your dream will speak to everyone in the group and other dreamers’ responses will enrich your own experience of your dream.
My Dream Life Dream Circles offer fun and accessible opportunities to learn about dreams through live interactive experiences with the synergy and support of a small group of dreamers like yourself and a professional mentor.

The Meaning of Houses In Dreams
Houses in dreams are the symbolic representation of the dreamer’s sense of self. No matter what other imagery or circumstances may present themselves in a dream, a house should be considered an unconscious expression of your sense of personal identity. This also applies to any home-like dwelling, such as an apartment, hotel room, trailer, grass hut or any of the possibilities of “home” that exist in the imagination.
The perspective or view of the house takes on specific meaning. The front of a house connects to the persona, the part of you that you show the world. The back is what is private or hidden. What you discover on the inside reflects various, compartmentalized aspects of yourself. Side views or alternate angles may connect to presenting yourself in the world in a limited, partial or inaccurate fashion.
The size, style, condition and reflection of abundance levels will play a key role in interpreting this symbol in a dream. You will need to consider both the feelings evoked by the house in the dream itself, as well as what comes up for you when comparing it to your actual, waking-life home. Whatever shades of meaning you glean from your dream must be interpreted as reflecting an unconscious expression of self.
A mansion on a grand scale may indicate a sense of opening yourself up to greater levels of abundance. This could also be revealing a level of inappropriate grandiosity, depending on your current levels of esteem. Conversely, a moment in life that feels constraining and steeped in lack might evoke a dream image of a house that is more hovel than home. Yet, this same image could be a symbolic representation of deeper levels of humility emerging within you.
A new house might mean a new sense of self is on the horizon, or needs to be. An older, dilapidated model reflects feelings in sync with such a visual image. Adding an extension indicates such an expansion may be occurring on a personal level. A house on fire is expressing that powerful levels of transformation are afoot. Whatever the Dreaming Lens is offering you about a house should be incorporated into an interpretation of your sense of self at the time of the dream.
If you dream of a specific home from an earlier time in your life, you are looking at the person you are today as a direct result of what was going on back then. This can refer to occurrences in the environment associated with the home and the people in it, as well as developmental issues based on your age at the time, which brings us to our next concept.

Orisha

Edit
This article is about a type of spirit. For other uses of Orisha, see Orisha (disambiguation).
Orisha (spelled òrìṣà in the Yoruba language, and orichá or orixá in Latin America) are spirits sent by (Olodumare, Olorun, Olofi) in Yoruba religion.[1] to guide creation and particularly humanity on how to live and succeed on Ayé (Earth).Most Òrìṣà are said to have previously existed in the spirit world (òrun) as Irumole and incarnate as human beings here on Earth (ayé). Others are said to be humans who are recognized as deities upon their deaths due to extraordinary feats.[2]
Many Òrìṣà have found their way to most of the New World as a result of the Atlantic slave trade and are now expressed in practices as varied as Santería, Candomblé, Trinidad Orisha, Umbanda, and Oyotunji, among others. The concept of orisha is similar to those of deities in the traditional religions of the Bini people of Edo State in southern Nigeria, the Ewe people of Benin, Ghana, and Togo, and the Fon people of Benin.[2][3]
Number Edit
Yoruba tradition often says that there are 400 + 1 Òrìṣà, which is associated with a sacred number. Other sources suggest that the number is "as many as you can think of, plus one more – an innumerable number." Different oral traditions refer to 400, 700, or 1,440 orisha.[4][5][1]
Beliefs Edit
Practitioners traditionally believe that daily life depends on proper alignment and knowledge of one's ori. Ori literally means the head, but in spiritual matters, it is taken to mean a portion of the soul that determines personal destiny.[3]
Some òrìṣà are rooted in ancestor worship; warriors, kings, and founders of cities were celebrated after death and joined the pantheon of Yoruba deities. The ancestors did not die, but were seen to have "disappeared" and become òrìṣà. Some orishas based on historical figures are confined to worship in their families or towns of origin; others are venerated across wider geographic areas.[3]
Ashe Edit
Ashe is the life-force that runs through all things, living and inanimate. It is described as the power to make things happen. It is an affirmation that is used in greetings and prayers, as well as a concept of spiritual growth. Orìṣà devotees strive to obtain Ashe through iwa-pele, gentle and good character, and in turn they experience alignment with the ori, what others might call inner peace and satisfaction with life. Ashe is divine energy that comes from Olodumare, the creator deity, and is manifested through Olorun, who rules the heavens and is associated with the sun. Without the sun, no life could exist, just as life cannot exist without some degree of ashe. Ashe is sometimes associated with Eshu, the messenger òrìṣà.[6] For practitioners, ashe represents a link to the eternal presence of the supreme deity, the orishas, and the ancestors.[7]
The concept is regularly referenced in Brazilian capoeira. Axé in this context is used as a greeting or farewell, in songs and as a form of praise. Saying that someone "has axé" in capoeira is complimenting their energy, fighting spirit, and attitude.[1]
Pantheon Edit
The òrìṣà are grouped as those represented by the color white, who are characterized as tutu "cool, calm, gentle, and temperate"; and those represented by the colors red or black, who are characterized as gbigbona "harsh, aggressive, demanding, and quick tempered". As humans do, orisha may have a preferred color, food, or object. The traits of the orisha are documented through oral tradition.[5]

Edit
Nana Buluku, also known as Nana Buruku, Nana Buku or Nanan-bouclou, is the female Supreme Being in the West African traditional religion of the Fon people (Benin, Dahomey) and the Ewe people (Togo).[1][2][3] She is the most influential deity in West African theology, one shared by many ethnic groups other than the Fon people, albeit with variations. For example, she is called the Nana Bukuu among the Yoruba people and the Olisabuluwa among Igbo people but described differently, with some actively worshipping her, while some do not worship her and worship the gods originating from her.[1][4]

Mawu and Lisa
In Dahomey mythology, Nana Buluku is the mother Supreme Creator who gave birth to the moon spirit Mawu, the sun spirit Lisa and all of the Universe. After giving birth to these, she retired and left the matters of the world to Mawu-Lisa, according to the Fon mythology. She is the primary creator, Mawu-Lisa the secondary creator and the theology based on these is called Vodun, Voodoo or Vodoun.[5]
Africa Edit
The Vodoun religion of the Fon people has four overlapping elements: public gods, personal or private gods, ancestral spirits, and magic or charms.[5] In this traditional religion of West Africa, creation starts with a female Supreme Being called Nana Buluku, who gave birth to the Mawu, Lisa and created the universe.[5] After giving birth, the mother Supreme retired, and left everything to Mawu-Lisa (Moon-Sun, female-male) deities, spirits and inert universe. Mawu-Lisa created numerous minor imperfect deities. In Fon belief, the feminine deity Mawu had to work with trickster Legba and the snake Aido Hwedo to create living beings, a method of creation that imbued the good, the bad and a destiny for every creature including human beings. Only by appeasing lesser deities and Legba, in Fon theology, can one change that destiny. This appeasing requires rituals and offerings to the lesser gods and ancestral spirits, who are believed to have ability to do favors to human beings.[5][6][7]
South America and Caribbean Edit
As millions of West Africans were captured and enslaved during the colonial era, then shipped across the Atlantic to work on sugarcane, cotton and tobacco plantations, they brought with them their religious ideas, including those about Nana Buluku. She is celebrated as Nanã in Candomblé Jejé and Tambor de Mina and as Nana Burukú in Candomblé Ketu, where she is pictured as a very old woman, older than creation itself. She is found in French, Dutch and British West Indies in particular, such as among the African-heritage communities of French Guiana, Suriname, Guyana, Brazil, Trinidad, Martinique, Haiti and other Caribbean islands.[8][9]

Vodun (meaning spirit in the Fon and Ewe languages, pronounced [vodṹ] with a nasal high-tone u; also spelled Vodon, Vodoun, Vodou, Voudou, Voodoo, etc.) is practiced by the Fon people of Benin, and southern and central Togo; as well in Ghana, and Nigeria.
It is distinct from the various traditional African religions in the interiors of these countries and is the main source of religions with similar names found among the African diaspora in the Americas, such as Haitian Vodou; Dominican Vudú; Cuban Vodú; Brazilian Vodum (candomblé jeje and tambor de mina); Puerto Rican Vudú (Sanse); and Louisiana Voodoo.
Theology and practice Edit
A vodoun market in Lomé, Togo, 2008.
Vodun cosmology centers around the vodun spirits and other elements of divine essence that govern the Earth, a hierarchy that range in power from major deities governing the forces of nature and human society to the spirits of individual streams, trees, and rocks, as well as dozens of ethnic vodun, defenders of a certain clan, tribe, or nation. The vodun are the center of religious life. Perceived similarities with Roman Catholic doctrines such as the intercession of saints and angels allowed Vodun to appear compatible with Catholicism, and helped produce syncretic religions such as Haitian Vodou. Adherents also emphasize ancestor worship and hold that the spirits of the dead live side by side with the world of the living, each family of spirits having its own female priesthood, sometimes hereditary when it's from mother to blood daughter.
Patterns of worship follow various dialects, spirits, practices, songs, and rituals. The divine Creator, called variously Mawu or Mahu, is a female being. She is an elder woman, and usually a mother who is gentle and forgiving. She is also seen as the god who owns all other gods and even if there is no temple made in her name, the people continue to pray to her, especially in times of distress. In one tradition, she bore seven children. Sakpata: Vodun of the Earth, Xêvioso (or Xêbioso): Vodun of Thunder, also associated with Divine Justice[1], Agbe: Vodun of the Sea, Gû: Vodun of Iron and War, Agê: Vodun of Agriculture and Forests, Jo: Vodun of Air, and Lêgba: Vodun of the Unpredictable.[2]
The Creator embodies a dual cosmogonic principle of which Mawu the moon and Lisa the sun are respectively the female and male aspects, often portrayed as the twin children of the Creator.[3] Lisa is the sun god who brings the day and the heat, and also strength and energy. Mawu, the moon goddess, provides the cool of the night, peace, fertility, and rain. To give this in a summed aspect, a proverb says ‘When Lisa punishes Mawu forgives.[4]
Legba is often represented as a phallus or as a man with a prominent phallus. Known as the youngest son of Mawu, he is the chief of all Vodun divinities[5]; in his Diasporic portrayal, Legba is believed to be a very old man who walks on crutches.[6] Being old he is seen as wise, but when seen as a child he is one who is rebellious. It is only through contact with Legba that it becomes possible to contact the other gods, for he is the guardian at the door of the spirits.[7] Dan, who is Mawu's androgynous son, is represented as a rainbow serpent, and was to remain with her and act as a go-between with her other creations. As the mediator between the spirits and the living, Dan maintains balance, order, peace and communication.
Other popular Lwa, or spiritual entities include Azaka who rules over agriculture, Erzuli has domain over love, and Ogoun who is in charge of war, defense and who stands on guard.[8]
All creation is considered divine and therefore contains the power of the divine. This is how medicines such as herbal remedies are understood, and explains the ubiquitous use of mundane objects in religious ritual. Vodun talismans, called "fetishes", are objects such as statues or dried animal or human parts that are sold for their healing and spiritually rejuvenating properties. Specifically, they are objects inhabited by spirits. The entities that inhabit a fetish are able to perform different tasks according to their stage of development. Fetish objects are often combined together in the construction of "shrines", used to call forth specific vodun and their associated powers.[9]
Priestess
Priestess Edit
The Queen Mother is the first daughter of a matriarchal lineage of a family collective. She holds the right to lead the ceremonies incumbent to the clan: marriages, baptisms and funerals. She is one of the most important members of community. She will lead the women of a village when her family collective is the ruling one. They take part in the organisation and the running of markets and are also responsible for their upkeep is vitally important because marketplaces are the focal points for gatherings and social centres in their communities. In the past when the men of the villages would go to war, the Queen Mothers would lead prayer ceremonies in which all the women attended every morning to ensure the safe return of their menfolk.
The high priestess is the woman chosen by the oracle to care for the convent. Priestesses, like priests, receive a calling from an oracle, which may come at any moment during their lives. They will then join their clan's convent to pursue spiritual instruction. It is also an oracle that will designate the future high priest and high priestess among the new recruits, establishing an order of succession within the convent. Only blood relatives were allowed in the family convent; strangers are forbidden. In modern days, however, some family members to enter what is described as the first circle of worship. Strangers are allowed to worship only the spirits of the standard pantheon.
Demographics Edit
About 17% of the population of Benin, some 1.6 million people, follow Vodun. (This does not count other traditional religions in Benin.) In addition, many of the 41.5% of the population that refer to themselves as "Christian" practice a syncretized religion, not dissimilar from Haitian Vodou or Brazilian Candomblé; indeed, many of them are descended from freed Brazilian slaves who settled on the coast near Ouidah.[10]
In Togo, about half the population practices indigenous religions, of which Vodun is by far the largest, with some 2.5 million followers; there may be another million Vodunists among the Ewe of Ghana, as a 13% of the total Ghana population of 20 million are Ewe and 38% of Ghanaians practise traditional religion. According to census data, about 14 million people practise traditional religion in Nigeria, most of whom are Yoruba practising Ifá, but no specific breakdown is available.[10]
European colonialism, followed by some of the totalitarian regimes in West Africa, have tried to suppress Vodun as well as other traditional religions.[11] However, because the vodun deities are born to each clan, tribe, and nation, and their clergy are central to maintaining the moral, social and political order and ancestral foundation of its village, these efforts have not been successful. Recently there have been moves to restore the place of Vodun in national society, such as an annual International Vodun Conference held in the city of Ouidah in Benin that has been held since 1991.[12]

Edit
The Dahomean religion was practiced by the Fon people of the Dahomey Kingdom. The kingdom existed until 1898 in what is now the country of Benin. People taken from Dahomey to the Caribbean used elements of the religion to form Vodou and other religions of the Afro-Caribbean diaspora.[1][2]
Mawu and Lisa Edit
Lisa (male) and Mawu (female), married twin siblings of Nana Buluku, are the creator spirits, occasionally combined as Mawu-Lisa, an androgynous spirit. Mawu-Lisa created the world and made it orderly, then made plants, animals, and humans; the entire process took four days.
The first day, Mawu-Lisa created the world and humanity;
The second day the earth was made suitable for human life;
On the third day, humans were given intellect, language, and the senses;
Finally, on the fourth day, mankind received the gift of technology.

The Fon people, also called Fon nu, Agadja or Dahomey, are a major African ethnic and linguistic group.[1][2] They are the largest ethnic group in Benin found particularly in its south region; they are also found in southwest Nigeria and Togo. Their total population is estimated to be about 3,500,000 people, and they speak the Fon language, a member of the Gbe languages.[1]

The history of the Fon people is linked to the Dahomey kingdom, a well-organized kingdom by the 17th century but one that shared more ancient roots with the Aja people.[2] The Fon people traditionally were a culture of an oral tradition and had a well-developed polytheistic religious system.[3] They were noted by early 19th-century European traders for their N'Nonmiton practice or Dahomey Amazons – which empowered their women to serve in the military, who decades later fought the French colonial forces in 1890.[4][5]
Most Fon today live in villages and small towns in mud houses with corrugated iron gable roofs. Cities built by the Fon include Abomey, the historical capital city of Dahomey on what was historically referred to by Europeans as the Slave Coast. These cities became major commercial centres for the slave trade. A significant portion of the sugar plantations in the French West Indies, particularly Haiti, Dominican Republic and Trinidad, were populated with slaves that came from the Slave Coast, through the lands of Ewe and Fon people.[6]
Origin Edit
The Gbe language area. Map of the Fon (purple) and other ethnic groups, according to Capo (1998). Since the seventeenth century, the Fon have been concentrated in the Benin region and the southwestern part of Nigeria.
The Fon people, like other neighboring ethnic groups in West Africa, remained an oral tradition society through late medieval era, without ancient historical records. According to these oral histories and legends, the Fon people originated in present-day Tado, a small Aja town now situated near the Togo-Benin border. Their earliest rulers were originally a part of the ruling class in the Aja kingdom of Allada (also called Ardra kingdom).[2][6]
The Aja people had a major dispute, one group broke up and these people came to be the Fon people who migrated to Allada with king Agasu. The sons of king Agasu disputed who should succeed him after his death, and the group split again, this time the Fon people migrated with Agasu's son Dogbari northwards to Abomey where they founded the kingdom of Dahomey sometime about 1620 CE. The Fon people have been settled there since, while the kingdom of Dahomey expanded in southeast Benin by conquering neighboring kingdoms.[2]
The oral history of the Fon further attributes the origins of the Fon people to the intermarrying between this migrating Allada-nu Aja group from the south with the Oyo-nu inhabitants in the (Yoruba) Kingdoms of the plateau. These Yorubas were known as the Igede, which the Ajas called the Gedevi.[7][8] The fusion of the immigrant Aja conquerors and the original Indigenous Yorubas of the Abomey plateau thus created a new culture, that of the Fon.
Although these oral traditional origins has been passed down through the generations, they are not without controversy. The claim to a[clarification needed] origin from within Allada is not recorded in contemporary sources before the late eighteenth century, and is likely a means of legitimating the claim and conquest of Allada by Dahomey in the 1720s. [9] These claims can also be interpreted as a metaphorical expressions of cultural and political influences between kingdoms rather than actual kinship.[10]
History Edit
"Amazon King Apron", Dahomey : the nineteenth century
While references and documented history about the Fon people are scant before the 17th century, there are abundant documents on them from the 17th century, particularly written by European travelers and traders to West African coasts.[11] These memoirs mention Ouidah or Abomey. Among the most circulated texts are those of Archibald Dalzel, a slave trader who in 1793 wrote the legends, history and greedy slave trading practices of the Fon people in a book titled the History of Dahomey.[12] Modern era scholars have questioned the objectivity and accuracy of Dalzel, and to what extent his pioneering book on Fon people was a polemic or dispassionate scholarship.[12]
In the 19th century and early 20th century, as the French presence increased and then the colonial period began in the Benin and nearby regions, more history and novels with references to the Fon people appeared, such as those by Édouard Foà,[13] N. Savariau,[14] Le Herisse and M.J. Herskovits' anthropological study on Fon people published in 1938.[11]
These histories suggest that Fon people's kingdom of Dahomey expanded in early 18th century, particularly during King Agaja's rule through the 1740s, reaching the Atlantic coast from their inland capital of Abomey.[2] During this period, 200 years after Portugal had already settled in the Kongo people lands on the Atlantic coast of Central Africa in the 16th century, there were numerous plantations in the Caribbean and Atlantic coastline of South America, which had already created a booming demand for slaves from the European traders. The expanded territory of the Dahomey kingdom was well positioned to supply this transatlantic trade and the 18th and 19th century history of the Fon people is generally presented within this context.[2][15][16]
Slavery, Bight of Benin Edit
The Fon people did not invent slavery in Africa, nor did they have a monopoly on slavery nor exclusive slave trading activity. The institution of slavery long predates the origins of the Fon people in the Aja kingdom and the formation of the kingdom of Dahomey. The sub-Saharan and the Red Sea region, states Herbert Klein – a professor of history, was already trading between 5,000 and 10,000 African slaves per year between 800 and 1600 CE, with a majority of these slaves being women and children.[17] According to John Donnelly Fage – a professor of history specializing in Africa, a "slave economy was generally established in the Western and Central Sudan by about the fourteenth century at least, and had certainly spread to the coasts around the Senegal and in Lower Guinea by the fifteenth century".[18]

By the 15th century, Songhay Empire rulers to the immediate north of the Fon people, in the Niger River valley, were already using thousands of captured slaves for agriculture.[17] The demand for slave labor to produce sugarcane, cotton, palm oil, tobacco and other goods in the plantations of European colonies around the globe had sharply grown between 1650 and 1850. The Bight of Benin was already shipping slaves in the late 17th century, before the Fon people expanded their kingdom to gain control of the coast line.[20] The Fon rulers and merchants, whose powers were established on the Atlantic coast between 1700 and 1740, entered this market.[18] The Fon people were divided on how to respond to the slave demand. Some scholars suggest that Fon people and Dahomey rulers expressed intentions to curtail or end slave trading, state
Colonial empire Edit
The French rule removed the king and royals of the Fon people, much like the British and German colonial rule did in neighboring areas, but they all kept the system of plantations.[25] The only difference, so states Patrick Manning – a professor of World History specializing on Africa, for the next seventy years was that the French colonial state, instead of the former king of Fon people, now decided how the surplus (profits) from these plantations were to be spent.[25] The French colonial administrators made some infrastructure improvements to improve the plantation profitability and logistics to serve French colonial interests.[26]
The French rulers targeted slavery in Benin, they outlawed capture of slaves, legally freed numerous slaves, but faced resistance and factional struggles from previous local slave owners running their farms. The slavery that continued included those that was lineage-related, who cohabited within families in the region. The Fon aristocracy adapted to the new conditions, by joining the ranks of administrators in the French rule.[25]
Taxes new to the Dahomey colony's people, which the French called impôt, similar to those already practiced in France, were introduced on all ethnic groups, including the Fon people, by the colonial administrators. Payment of these were regularly resisted or just refused, leading to confrontations, revolts, arrests, prison terms and forced labor.[27] These complaints gelled into an anti-colonial nationalism movement in which the Fon people participated.[27] France agreed to autonomy to Dahomey in 1958, and full independence in 1960.[28]
Religion Edit

The deities of Fon people. Some Fon have converted to Christianity or Islam, while retaining their traditional religious practices called Vodun or "Ifa.".
Some Fon people converted to Christianity or Islam under the influence of missionaries during the colonial era, in Benin and in French West Indies colonies, but many continued their traditional religious practices.[29] While Islam arrived in the Benin area between 11th and 13th centuries, Christianity was adopted by Dahomey ruler Agonglo who came to power in 1789, and his Fon royalty supporters, with missionaries welcomed.[30] According to Steven Mailloux, the missionaries attempted to integrate the old concepts of Fon people on cosmogenesis to be same as Adam-Eve, and their Legba to be Christian Satan, teachings that led to syncretism rather than abandonment.[31]
The Fon people, states Mary Turner, have generally proven to be highly resistant to Christianity and Islam, even when brought over as slaves in a new environment as evident in Afro-Jamaican[32] and other African influenced cultures with ties to the Slave Coast.[33] They have generally refused to accept innovative re-interpretation of Fon mythologies within the Abrahamic mythical framework.[34] The priests of the Fon people, contrary to the expectations of the missionaries, adopted and re-interpreted Abrahamic myths into their own frameworks.[35]
Traditional beliefs Edit
The traditional Fon religion is regionally called Vodoun, Vodzu or Vodu, which is etymologically linked to Vodun – a term that refers to their theological concept of "numerous immortal spirits and deities".[6][36]
The religious practice of the Fon people have four overlapping elements: public gods, personal or private gods, ancestral spirits, and magic or charms.[3] Thus, the Vodoun religion is polytheistic. The Fon people have a concept of a female Supreme Being called Nana Buluku, who gave birth to the Mawu, Lisa and created the universe.[3] After giving birth, the mother Supreme retired, and left everything to Mawu-Lisa (Moon-Sun, female-male) deities, spirits and inert universe. Mawu-Lisa created numerous minor imperfect deities. In Fon belief, the feminine deity Mawu had to work with trickster Legba and the snake Aido Hwedo to create living beings, a method of creation that imbued the good, the bad and a destiny for every creature including human beings. Only by appeasing lesser deities and Legba, in Fon theology, can one change that destiny. This appeasing requires rituals and offerings to the lesser gods and ancestral spirits, who are believed to have ability to do favors to human beings.[3][37][38] A typical traditional home compound of the Fon people has a Dexoxos, or ancestral shrine.[3] The charms are locally called gbo, gris gris, ju ju, or obeah, involve leaves, herbs, smoke and these are offerings to public or personal gods of each family.[3]
In 1864, eight Fon people were executed in Haiti on allegations of murder and cannibalism from Voodoo. Later scholars have questioned the lack of evidence, and whether the Bizoton trial was a product of prejudice.[39][40]
While many Fon identify as Christian, the majority continue to practice Benin's traditional religion Vodun. The Fon have priests and mediums who receive the spirits on the occasion of the great festivals. The cult of the sacred serpents in the temple of Whydah had some importance, but eventually fell into disuse.[41] Practice can involve drumming to induce possession by one of these gods or spirits. Together with other cultural groups from the Fon homeland region such as the Yoruba and Bantu, Fon culture merged with French, Portuguese or Spanish to produce distinct religions (Voodoo, Mami Wata, Candomblé and Santería), dance and musical styles (Arará, Yan Valu).[citation needed]
In the French colonies, such as Saint-Domingue (now Haiti), the Christian missionaries confiscated and burnt the statues and religious objects of the Fon people, but this did not end their practices. They rebuilt their icons again.[42] The Fon people and their government have reversed the colonial attempts to culturally change them. After the end of the colonial era, January 10 has been declared an official annual holiday in Benin dedicated to Vodun gods.[43]
Society and culture Edit

The Fon people are traditionally settled farmers, growing cassava, corn and yams as staples.[1] The men prepare the fields, women tend and harvest the crop. Hunting and fishing are other sources of food, while some members of the Fon society make pottery, weave clothes and produce metal utensils. Among the cash crops, palm oil plantations are common in Fon people's region. The Fon culture is patrilineal and allows polygyny and divorce. A man with multiple wives usually lived in a compound with each wife and her children occupying a separate hut. A collection of compounds formed a village, usually headed by a hereditary chief. In contemporary times, tradition patrilineal clan-based living and associated practices are uncommon.[1]
Funerals and death anniversaries to remember their loved ones are important events, including drumming and dancing as a form of mourning and celebrating their start of life as a spirit by the one who died, can last for days.[45][46]
The Fon culture incorporated culture and shared ideas with ethnic groups that have been their historical neighbors. Many of their practices are found among Yoruba people, Akan people, Ewe people and others.[47]
Dahomey Amazons Edit
A notable part of the Fon people's society was their use of female soldiers in combat roles over some two centuries. Over 3,000 women trained and served as regular warriors to protect the Fon and to expand its reach. The women warrior's brigade was led by a woman.[48][49]
Given the oral tradition of Fon people, when women joined as warriors in Fon society is unclear. The earliest European records, such as those of Jean-Pierre Thibault, suggest that the tradition dates back to the early 18th century or even earlier.[48] These gender roles were foreign to the European travelers, and early fictional stories in European media are considered unreliable by many scholars.[4]

For the ethnic group in South Sudan, see Aja people (South Sudan).
The Aja are an ethnic group of native to south-western Benin and south-eastern Togo.[1] According to oral tradition, the Aja migrated to southern Benin in the 12th or 13th centuries from Tado on the Mono River, and c. 1600, three brothers, Kokpon, Do-Aklin, and Te-Agdanlin, split the ruling of the region then occupied by the Aja amongst themselves: Kokpon took the capital city of Great Ardra, reigning over the Allada kingdom; Do-Aklin founded Abomey, which would become capital of the Kingdom of Dahomey; and Te-Agdanlin founded Little Ardra, also known as Ajatche, later called Porto Novo (literally, "New Port") by Portuguese traders and the current capital city of Benin.

History Edit
Those Aja living in Abomey mingled with the local tribe, thus creating a new people known as the Fon, or "Dahomey" ethnic group. This group is now the largest in Benin. Another source claims the Aja were the rulers of Dahomey (Benin) until 1893, when the French conquered them.[citation needed] Currently, there are approximately 500,000 Ajas in an area straddling the border between Benin and Togo, 50 kilometres (30 miles) long and 30 km (20 mi) wide.
The Aja speak a language known as Aja-Gbe, or simply 'Aja'; only 1-5% are literate in their native tongue. According to one source, voodoo originated with the Aja. There are three dialects: Tàgóbé (in Togo only), Dògóbè (in Benin only), and Hwègbè (in both countries). Many are trilingual, also speaking French and Fongbe, the lingua-franca of southern Benin, while Ewe is spoken as a second language by those Aja living in Togo and Ghana.
Due to severe land shortages in the densely populated Togolese-Beninois border region mentioned above, many Aja have migrated in recent years, seeking arable land for subsistence farming or work in urban centers. There are a significant number of Aja living throughout the coastal region of Benin and Togo, southern Nigeria and Gabon. The urban centers of Cotonou, Lome, Lagos and Libreville all have significant Aja migrant populations.
The Aja, Fon, Ewe, Ga-Adangbe accounted for most of the people carried to the Americas from the Bight of Benin, Togo and Ghana in the transatlantic slave trade prior to the late eighteenth century (when Yoruba people became the more common captives from the region).[2]

In the mid-sixteenth century, Allada (then called Grand Ardra, or Arda) had a population of about 30,000 people.[2]
The original inhabitants of Ardra were ethnic Aja.[3] According to oral tradition, the Aja migrated to southern Benin around the 12th or 13th centuries, coming from Tado, on the Mono River in modern Togo. They established themselves in the area that currently corresponds to southern Benin, until c. 1600, when three brothers – Kokpon, Do-Aklin, and Te-Agdanlin – split the rule of the region amongst themselves: Kokpon took the capital city of Great Ardra, reigning over the Allada kingdom, while his brother Do-Aklin founded Abomey (which would become capital of the Kingdom of Dahomey) and their brother Te-Agdanlin founded Little Ardra, also known as Ajatche, later called Porto Novo (literally, "New Port") by Portuguese traders (which is the current capital city of Benin).

Kingdom of Ardra
Language
Watch
Edit
The Kingdom of Ardra, also known as the Kingdom of Allada, was a coastal West African kingdom in what is now southern Benin. It was named for its capital, the modern Allada, which was also the main city and major port of the realm.
The city and kingdom were supposedly founded by a group of Aja migrants from Tado, a settlement along the Mono River, in the 12th or 13th century.[1][2][3] Its kings "ruled with the consent of the elders of the people".[2] The state reached the peak of its power in the 16th and early 17th centuries, when it was an important source of slaves for the Atlantic trade. By the mid-15th century, the city of Allada had a population of approximately 30,000 people, while the state as a whole had a population of nearly 200,000 people by the 16th century.[3][4]
Name Edit
The name is variously spelled Ardra, Ardrah,[5] Ardres, Hardre, Arda, Arada, and Arrada. It is also sometimes known by its capital's present-day name Allada.
Foundational legend Edit
According to the Fon oral tradition, the Aja settlers that established themselves in the area of present-day Allada arrived in southern Benin around the 12th or 13th centuries coming from Tado, on the Mono River. They established themselves in the area that currently corresponds to southern Benin, until c. 1600, when three brothers — Kokpon, Do-Aklin, and Te-Agdanlin — split the rule of the region amongst themselves: Kokpon took the capital city of Great Ardra, reigning over the Allada Kingdom, while his brother Do-Aklin founded Abomey (which would become capital of the Kingdom of Dahomey) and their brother Te-Agdanlin founded Little Ardra, also known as Ajatche, later called Porto Novo (literally, "New Port") by Portuguese traders (which is the current capital city of Benin).[3]
History Edit
Founded by Aja settlers, the settlement of Allada was in 1600 the most prominent of Aja states, bordering the nearby Oyo Empire, to which the King of Allada was vassal and tributary. Although it was an inland kingdom, Allada maintained control of some sea ports such as Offra, Jaquin and Whydah, thus making Allada important in the growing slave trade business, which also granted Allada the economic means to pay its duties to Oyo. Between 1640 and 1690, about 125,000 slaves were sold from Allada, peaking at about 55,000 during the 1680s alone.[3]
Originally a part of the Allada Kingdom, the city of Abomey went on to become capital of a new kingdom, the Kingdom of Dahomey, which grew strong enough to challenge the nearby Oyo Kingdom, with Dahomey finally vanquishing it and establishing itself as the main Kingdom in the region.
By the late 1690s, the growth of Dahomey had severely restricted Allada's supply of slaves from the north, while simultaneously Whydah surpassed Allada as a primary source of slaves from West Africa. This greatly weakened Allada's comparative power in the region.[3] In 1724, the Kingdom of Dahomey invaded the Kingdom of Allada; in three days, the King of Dahomey's troops slaughtered thousands of Allada's warriors and citizens. More than 8,000 of Allada's population were taken as prisoners and sold into slavery in the New World.[6]
Seaside fort Edit
Slaves used to be captured from enemy tribes and passed on to European slavers bound for the Americas, the route which by repute the father of Toussaint L'Ouverture, the famous general that started the Haitian revolution that lead Jean-Jacques Dessaline to liberate Haiti, had taken.[7][8]
Connection to Toussaint L'Ouverture Edit
According to the Toussaint Louverture Historical Society,[9] Toussaint L'Ouverture, the Haitian revolutionary and first Black governor of Haiti, was the grandson of Gaou Guinou, the heir – either son[10] or brother[9] – of the King of Allada killed during the invasion by the Kingdom of Dahomey in 1724.
To quote from their sources, "Gaou Guinou, Minister of War and younger brother of the King of Allada, rather than succeeding to his father and ascending naturally to the throne, chose then to accompany his vanquished soldiers in exile. He was given a hammock on board of a slave ship"[6][9] that sailed to the island of Hispaniola, where the slaves were sold in Haiti.

Gaou Guinou
Language
Watch
Edit
Gaou Guinou was an African prince and sometime the King of the Allada and the Fon people. He was reportedly captured and enslaved by his brother, Hussar, and his wife, Queen Aitta in 1724.
According to Haitian oral traditions, Gaou Guinou's father, Soso, died in 1724 and left two sons to fight for the succession: Hussar and Gaou Guinou. Hussar fled to Abomey while Gaou Guinou, the younger brother, took power of Great Ardra.[1] Hussar then allied himself with Agaja, the ruler of Dahomey, and returned to battle his brother for the throne thereafter. He was ultimately victorious, and sold Gaou Guinou into slavery after his capture.
The former king is said to have eventually arrived in today's Haiti, where he soon started a family. This family is believed to be the family of Haiti's founding father, Toussaint L'Ouverture. Whilst still constrained to the life of a slave, Guinou nevertheless enjoyed certain privileges within the confines of his owners estate. This included being allocated a portion of land and the labour of five enslaved africans to work it.[2]

Edit
The traditional Jamaican Maroon religion otherwise known as Kumfu[1] was developed by a mixing of West and Central African religious practices in Maroon communities. While the traditional religion of the Maroons was absorbed by Christianity due to conversions in Maroon communities, many old practices continued on. Some have speculated that Jamaican Maroon religion helped the development of Kumina and Convince. The religious Kromanti dance is still practiced today but not always with the full religious connotation as in the past.[2]

History Edit
What can be deduced today about the religions origins points to the idea that it is founded upon Akan religion but syncretized with other African beliefs. This is evident by the many specifically Akan aspects found in the religion.[3]
Very little was written about the original religion of the Jamaican Maroons because of little contact Maroons had with the outside world. What was written at the time by Bryan Edwards (a British slaver and planter) was the practice of Obeah by Maroons. When Anglican Christian churches were established in Maroon towns the traditional religion began to be practiced separately from Christianity and served a different religious purpose. As other non-Anglican churches appeared in Maroon communities they rallied against traditional Maroon beliefs and they became less popular. Today the Kromanti dance still is practiced on occasion even by self identified Christians.[4]
Beliefs Edit
Cosmology Edit
According to the faith a supreme deity named Yankipong rules the cosmos and is generally unconcerned with human life. Below Yankipong exists ancestor spirits called "duppies", "jumbies", or "bigiman". These spirits have hierarchies of their own and can be communicated with by humans so their powers can be used for worldly matters. The matter of spirits and their influence on Earth is considered to be Obeah (although the use of that specific term is controversial and some instead call it "science").[4] It is believed that the omnipotent god "Yankipong" is the Jamaican Maroon's conception of the omnipotent god Nyame from Akan religion.[3] Other Akan deities are reported to have been recognized like Asase Yaa and Epo. The Akan based word "Kumfu" was used for the total spiritual system and understanding of the world.[1]
Practices Edit
See also: Kromanti dance
A priest of the religion is referred to as a "kumfu-man". The word "kumfu" itself has its origins Twi language.[3]
Ceremonies are involved in Jamaican Maroon religion but no worship of the god Yankipong is practiced, unlike in traditional Akan religion.[3] An important ceremony of the religion is the Kromanti dance which involves the direction of a "fete-man" (ritual specialist) and the sacrifice of an animal to the pakit (ancestral spirit). The purpose of the dance is for participants to be possessed by ancestral spirits.[5] The Jamaican Maroon Creole language is used during the Kromanti dance ceremony when addressing people possessed by old Maroon ancestors.[citation needed]

Akan religion comprises the traditional beliefs and religious practices of the Akan people of Ghana and eastern Ivory Coast. Akan religion is referred to as Akom (from the Twi word akom, meaning "prophecy"). Although most Akan people have identified as Christians since the early 20th century, Akan religion remains practiced by some, and is often syncretized with Christianity. The Akan have many subgroups (including the Fanti, Ashanti, the Akuapem, the Wassa, the Abron, the Anyi, and the Baoulé, among others), so the religion varies greatly by region and subgroup.
Similar to other traditional religions of West and Central Africa such as West African Vodun, Yoruba religion, or Odinani, Akan cosmology consists of a senior god who generally does not interact with humans and many gods who assist humans.
Anansi the Spider is a folk hero, who is prominent in Ashanti folktales, where he is depicted as a trickster and wise. In other aspects of Akan spirituality, Anansi is also sometimes considered both a trickster and a deity associated with wisdom, responsible for creating the first inanimate humans, according to the scholar Anthony Ephirim-Donkor.[1]. This is similar to Legba, who is also both a trickster and a deity in West African Vodun.[2]
Deities Edit
Creator God Edit
Followers of Akan religion believe in a supreme god who created the universe. He is distant and does not interact with humans.
The creator god takes on different names depending upon the region of worship, including Nyame, Nyankopon, Brekyirihunuade ("Almighty"), Odomankoma ("infinite inventor"),[3] Ɔbɔadeɛ ("creator") and Anansi Kokuroko ("the great designer" or "the great spider").[4] It is occasionally said that the creator god is a part of a triune deity or triad, which consists of Nyame, Nyankopon and Odomankoma.[5]
The Supreme Creator is an omniscient, omnipotent sky father. His wife is Asase Yaa (also known as Mother Earth), considered second to God.[6] Together they brought forth two children: Bia and Tano.[7]
Abosom Edit
The abosom, the lower deities or spirits, assist humans on earth. These are akin to orishas in Yoruba religion, the vodun in West African Vodun and its derivatives, and the alusi in Odinani. Abosom receive their power from the creator god and are most often connected to the world as it appears in its natural state. Priests serve individual abosom and act as mediators between the abosom and mankind. Many of those who believe in these traditions participate in daily prayer, which includes the pouring of libations as an offering to both the ancestors who are buried under the land and to the spirits who are everywhere.

In the Americas Edit
Jamaica Edit
Main article: Jamaican Maroon religion
According to Long, Akan (then referred to as "Coromantee") culture obliterated any other African customs and incoming non-Akan Africans had to submit to the culture of the majority Akan population in Jamaica, much like a foreigner learning migrating to a foreign country. Other than Ananse stories, Akan religion made a huge impact. The Akan pantheon of gods referred to as Abosom in Twi were documented. Enslaved Akan would praise Nyankopong (erroneously written by the British as Accompong, not related to the Maroon leader Accompong [Twi: Akyeampong]); libations would be poured to Asase Yaa (erroneously written as 'Assarci') and Epo the sea god. Bonsam was referred to as the god of evil.[8] Kumfu (from the word Akom the name of the Akan spiritual system) was documented as Myal and originally only found in books, while the term Kumfu is still used by Jamaican Maroons. The priest of Kumfu was called a Kumfu-man.[9]
The Jamaican Maroon spirit-possession language, a creolized form of Akan, is used in religious ceremonies of some Jamaican Maroons.
Myal and Revival Edit
Kumfu evolved into Revival, a syncretic Christian sect. Kumfu followers gravitated to the American Revival of 1800 Seventh Day Adventist movement because it observed Saturday as god's day of rest. This was a shared aboriginal belief of the Akan people as this too was the day that the Akan god, Nyame rested after creating the earth. Jamaicans that were aware of their Ashanti past while wanting to keep hidden, mixed their Kumfu spirituality with the American Adventists to create Jamaican Revival in 1860. Revival has two sects: 60 order(or Zion Revival, the order of the heavens) and 61 order(or Pocomania, the order of the earth). 60 order worships God and spirits of air or the heavens on a Saturday and considers itself to be the more 'clean' sect. 61 order more deals with spirits of the earth. This division of Kumfu clearly shows the dichotomy of Nyame and Asase Yaa's relationship, Nyame representing air and has his 60 order'; Asase Yaa having her 61 order of the earth. Also the Ashanti funerary/war colours: red and black have the same meaning in Revival of vengeance.[10] Other Ashanti elements include the use of swords and rings as means to guard the spirit from spiritual attack. The Asantehene like the Mother Woman of Revival, has special two swords used to protect himself from witchcraft called an Akrafena or soul sword and a Bosomfena or spirit sword [11][12]
Suriname Edit
Winti is an Afro-Surinamese religion which is largely derived from both Akom and Vodun with Vodun gods such as Loco, Ayizu and so on. [13]
Haiti Edit
Haitian Vodou is a syncretic religion that combines Vodun with several other African religions in addition to influences from Catholicism. Here latent influences of Akan beliefs can be seen in the incorporation of Anansi as one of the Lwa worshiped in the Haitian religion. He is often depicted as maintaining the connection between the living and their deceased ancestors.[14]

Function Edit
Was the adinkra people, Gyaman or German symbol representing their version of Creation? The symbol, "Gye Nyame" means, "there is nothing but creation or God". The Akan people usurped the symbols when the Akan Chieftain once imprisoned Nana Adinkra, chief of Gyaman and his Entourage. The akan Chief had his scribes copy the adinkra symbols and then appropriated them into their culture and change the meaning to fit what today means "there is nothing except God" in the Twi language of the Akan. However, the adinkra people who originated the symbol knew nothing of Christianity and invented the symbol independent from its use and meaning today in akan culture. The Gyaman people are also Asanti.
Family Edit
Nyame is the husband of Asase Ya. It means God created the earth and its fertile productive elements.
Nyame and Anansi Edit
A giant python once terrorised the Ashanti people, who then prayed to Nyame. Nyame was tired of a human named Kwaku Anansi, the "Spider Man", boasting about his so-called wit and intelligence, and as a punishment, assigned him with the task of dealing with the python.
Anansi tricked the python into eating a heavy meal and consuming strong wine. When the snake fell unconscious, Anansi summoned the villagers to beat the creature and drive it away. Nyame was pleased with Kwaku’s wit and blessed him with tremendous wisdom and life.

The Abosom in the Americas (Jamaica) Edit
Worship of the Asase Ya goddess was transported via the transatlantic slave trade and was documented to had been acknowledged by enslaved Akan or Coromantee living in Jamaica.[14][15] Jamaican slave owners did not believe in Christianity for the Coromantee and left them to their own beliefs.[14][15] Hence an Ashanti spiritual system was dominant on the plantation.[14][15] According to Jamaican historian and slave owner Edward Long, creole descendants of the Ashanti coupled with other newly arrived Coromantee joined in observation and worship of the Ashanti goddess Asase Yaa (the English people recorded erroneously as 'Assarci').[14][15] They showed their worship by pouring libations and offering up harvested foods.[14][15] Other Ashanti Abosom were also reported to be worshipped.[14][15] This was the only deity spiritual system on the island, as other deities identities in the 18th century was obliterated because of the large population of enslaved Coromantee in Jamaica, according to Edward Long and other historians who observed their slaves.[14][15]

Observance Edit
The Akan annual calendar is divided into nine parts, each lasting approximately six weeks but varying between 40–42 days in a period; the celebration of this period is called the Adae Festival. The Adae Festival has two celebration days: the Akwasidae Festiveal is celebrated on the final Sunday of the period, while the Awukudae Festival is celebrated on a Wednesday within the period. The Friday preceding 10 days to the Akwasidae is called the Fofie (meaning a ritual Friday). As the festival is always held on Sundays (Twi in Kwasidae), its recurrence could be after 40 or 42 days in accordance with the official Calendar of Ashanti. During the last Akwasidae of the year, which coincides with the Adae Kese Festival, special attention is given to make food offerings and donations for helping people.[2] The festivals of Adae are not interchangeable as they were fixed from ancient times.[4]

Practices Edit
The rites on this day relate to honouring personal and community ancestors. A gathering called Akom occurs in which drumming, dancing and singing are a normal celebration to honour Abosom (lesser gods in the Akan tradition) and Nsamanfo (spiritually cultivated ancestors). Food offerings include special items such as eto (mashed African yam), garnished with hard-boiled eggs. Every Ashanti celebrates this festival.[2] For those Ashanti who do not observe the festival of Odwira, the Akwasidae is very important to commemorate their ancestors.[5]
On this day, the Asantehene (King of Ashante) meets his subjects and subordinate chiefs in the courtyard of the Manhyia Palace.[6] The Golden Stool (throne) is displayed at the palace grounds in the presence of the king, and people visit in large numbers, singing and dancing.[7] The king holds his durbar on the occasion of the festival, and people have the liberty to shake hands with him. Before holding the durbar, the king goes in a procession in a palanquin decorated with gold jewelry. He also witnesses a colourful parade, from his palace grounds at Kumasi. Participants of the parade include drum beaters, folk dancers, horn-blowers and singers.[8] As it is festival of paying respect to ancestors, the king visits the Bantama Mausoleum and offers worship not only to his ancestors' chairs (stools), but also to the skeletal remains of his ancestors.[8] It is argued that, the king do not worship the stools and the ancestors, however to pay them homage.

Edit
Adae Kese Festival ("big resting place") is a celebration of the Ashanti. It glorifies the achievements of the Asante kingdom.[1][2] It is also the occasion when the purification ceremony of Odwira is performed at the burial shrines of ancestral spirits. Generally, this coincides with the harvest season of yam and hence the ritual was also called the "Yam custom" by Europeans.[3]

History Edit
The custom of holding this festival came into prominence between 1697 and 1699 when statehood was achieved for the people of Ashante after the war of independence, the Battle of Feyiase, against the Denkyira. The festival was observed subsequently to the establishment of the Golden Stool (throne) in 1700. The festival was a time to consecrate the remains of the dead kings; those remains had been kept in a mausoleum at the sacred burial ground of Bantama, a royal suburb of Kumasi. Adae Kese brought a link and a level of faith and solidarity between the living and the ancestral spirits. In its early times, this festival also had implications of sacrifice, both human and animal. The main festival used to be held first at Hemmaa, close to the king’s palace near the location of the ancestral shrine of the kings. The second and more important part of the festival was performed at Bantama, which also was the last burial ground of the Asante kings, and was known as the “notorious Bantama ritual" as the sacrifices involved were of large proportions. When the festival was announced, by beating of drums, people went into hiding for fear that they may be selected for the human sacrifice. As part of the ritual, sheep sacrifice was also involved. Whether human sacrifice was involved or not is a subject of debate, but the fact is that the African societies considered these rites as a "reunion between the living and the dead."[4]
Traditions Edit
The Adae Kese Festival follows the same rituals as the Adae Festival, however, a difference in the celebration rites is that the chief carries a sheep for sacrifice to the Stool.[5] The purification ceremony of Odwira is celebrated during Adae Kese at the burial shrines of ancestral spirits. Generally, this coincides with the harvest season of yam, and hence the ritual was also called the Yam custom by Europeans.[5] It is celebrated at this season to thank the gods and the ancestors for a good harvest. The season is equally used to outdoor the new yam.
Adae Kese== Edit
Every five years, the Adae Kese Festival is hosted by the paramount ruler of the Asante in the capital city of Kumasi, Asanteman, and lasts for two weeks.[6] As a formal state celebration, it involves several villages and towns, within a traditional area known as Odwira,[2] uniting Ashanti from all walks of life (Odwira means to purify). Asantehene, the titular ruler of Kumasi, holds a colourful durbar of chiefs and their queens on this occasion when they all turn up in full regalia. Dancing to the beats of drums is part of the pageantry. The festival is also the occasion when people pledge their confidence in the present king of the Ashante. Some of the deserving people are given awards of recognition on this occasion. The king also holds a very private celebration within his palace chambers along with the designated members of the royal family and other officials.[1]

Observance Edit
The festival is observed on Wednesday, and its recurrence could be after 40 or 42 days. It is celebrated particularly in the Eastern Region. It is one of the two forms of Adae, the other being Akwasidae, which is celebrated the third Sunday after Awukudae.[3] The observance is an ancestral rite by the chiefs and elders of the Akan clan around Kumasi. The Tuesday which falls 8 days before Awukudae is known as Kwabena; and the Saturday following Awukudae is known as "Memeneda Dapaa". The festival announcement is made by drummers the evening before on "Dapaa" day. After every eight Awukudae Festivals, the "Adae Butu" ritual marks the start of the Odwira festival.[4]
Traditions Edit
Awukudae Festival is marked by Wo tu adae (announcing the day's celebration) drumming on the day preceding it and on Wednesday morning. Atumpan drums and single-air drums perform, but not Fontomfrom drums. In the forenoon, ceremonies are carried on in the Stool-House.[5] The drumming symbolizes the seeking of protection for the guardian ancestral deities to the soul of the ruling king and it unifies the people under his reign.[1] It is believed that Nsamanfoɔ and other ancestors are wandering around to see if this festival is being observed properly. On this occasion, it is also a practice to give donations for charitable causes such as feeding the hungry and helping the sick. On this day, Akamfoɔ people consider travel as dangerous and hence remain at home, as it is an emotional day for them.[6]

They are also venerated by the Edo of southeastern Nigeria; the Ewe of Ghana, Benin, and Togo; and the Fon of Benin (who refer to them as voduns). Although there is much variation in the details of the rituals and mythology of these deities among these West African peoples, the underlying religious concept is essentially the same.

Types Of Orishas
The Nigerian scholar J. Omosade Awolalu divided the orishas into three categories: primordial divinities, deified ancestors, and personified natural forces and phenomena. These categories are not rigid, and in some cases they overlap.
Primordial divinities
In West African religions and in traditions that have been influenced by them, primordial divinities are those that existed long before the creation of the world as it is now known. Some of these orishas are primordial in the sense that they existed before the creation of human beings. They emanated directly from God without any human aid. They are ara orun, people of heaven. They came from heaven, and they still reside there. Other orishas are irunmole, the earth’s first inhabitants that are now sacred beings dwelling on and in the earth.
Deified ancestors
Deified ancestors are people who lived in this world after it was created and had such a profound impact upon it that their descendants have continued to promote their memory. They were kings, culture heroes and heroines, warriors, and founders of cities who had a major influence on the lives of the people and on Yoruba society through their contributions to culture and social life. In the Yoruba tradition these were individuals who were able to establish control over a natural force and make a bond of interdependence with it, attracting its beneficent action toward themselves and their people while sending its destructive aspects onto enemies. To achieve this degree of control and interdependence, the ancestors made offerings and sacrifices. Later these ancestors disappeared—often, according to tradition, in a remarkable manner, such as by sinking into the ground, rising into the heavens on chains, committing suicide and not dying, or turning to stone. Such a disappearance was not true death; rather, it was the occasion of the ancestor’s metamorphosis into an orisha. Several primordial divinities have oral traditions stating that they were once the chiefs or kings of still existing Yoruba towns.
When these ancestors disappeared and became orishas, their children began to sacrifice to them and to continue whatever ceremonies the orishas had performed when they were on earth. This worship was passed on from one generation to the next. In their native areas, people formed groups that worshipped and venerated these orishas and secured a place for their cult group in the religious and social organizations of the towns where they lived. Eventually a local orisha’s cult might spread to other towns and become more widely known. The worship of other deified ancestors, however, remained confined to the towns where it originated, even sometimes restricted to particular families or lineages.
Personified natural forces and phenomena
From the Yoruba point of view, any element of the natural world that has manifold and useful functions for human beings has a spirit dwelling in it. There are many spirits of this kind, but some of them are so preeminent that they supersede all others; they too are orishas. Among them are the earth; rivers, lakes, and lagoons; and mountains, certain trees, and the wind. Worship is directed at the orisha that dwells within the natural phenomenon, often at the site where the natural phenomenon manifests itself.
These specific forces of nature are part of the orisha because the cult of the orishas directs itself toward them. The orishas, however, are only one aspect of these natural forces. An orisha is that part of a natural force that is disciplined and controllable and that can be cultivated by people using ritual means. There is always the other part—the part of the natural force that can be explored but never completely known, the aspect of nature that will always remain wild and escape definition. To the benefit of human beings, the orishas mediate between humanity and these forces of the natural world by putting the tamable aspects of nature under human control while standing between humanity and that part of nature that cannot be tamed, hemmed in, or controlled by human beings.
Orisha worshipperfs see the tamed natural force and the deified ancestor as indissolubly linked. This unity is represented by a witnessing object that acts as the material support of an orisha’s power to command and cause things to happen. A collection of these objects, even if it is not permanent, constitutes an altar where the orisha is present and can be addressed through prayers and offerings. In this context the altar may be referred to as the orisha or as the orisha’s face. Everything that went into forming these witnessing objects—from leaves, earth, metal, pottery, or animal bones to the incantations and sacrifices that praised and coerced the orisha’s many powers to lodge in one place—becomes part of the object’s (and the orisha’s) secret.
Transmission Of Orisha Beliefs Outside Africa
During the 18th and 19th centuries thousands of Yoruba, Bini, Ewe, and Fon people were enslaved, uprooted, and transported to the Americas. In some locations in the Caribbean and South America, they were able to reestablish the worship of the orishas and maintain it during slavery and after its abolition. In the social and cultural environments of the Americas, the orisha concept underwent some subtle but significant changes. Orisha devotion became a profound influence upon the emergence of such new religions as Vodou in Haiti and Santería in Cuba.
Contemporary Practices Of Orisha Devotees
The general idea of the orisha as a deified ancestor whose descendants perpetuate the ancestor’s practices is reflected in the self-identification of the members of an orisha cult group’s priesthood as that orisha’s “children.” This idea also undergirds a practice of secrecy that excludes from some part of an orisha’s ceremonies people who have not been initiated into its priesthood. However, it becomes the responsibility of the orisha’s human descendants to transmit to subsequent generations the objects and secrets through which human beings can interact with the orisha. Because each orisha has particular occupations, places, skills, preferences, diseases, problems, capabilities, and misfortunes with which it is closely associated, devotees—through the orisha’s priesthood—can make appeals to the orisha that is best able to resolve the problem they are experiencing. It is the orishas who are the guardians and explicators of human destiny. Despite the ascendance of Christianity and Islam, many Yoruba and other West Africans still turn to the orishas for help, aid, and advice in the great and small problems of life.
In Conversation with an Orisa Priestess
The average Nigerian consider traditional religions as the practice of bad magic or “Juju”. According to Nigerian movies, Juju is used to twist situations, events and even people in your favor. But a chat with Òrìsà priestess, Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ debunks these myths peddled by Nollywood.
As you walk down the streets of Tanke Okeodo, Ilorin, you would come across toddlers waddling behind their mums dressed in hijabs. They imitate their parents and grow up never deviating from their religion. This is what it means when Yorubas say ó bá a nínú ilé ni. She met the tradition at home. Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ Ẹgbẹ́ladé was born into a family of Òrìsà worshippers. At 5, she already knew the intricacies of Òrìsà practice. As do many 5-year-olds in Christian homes today. However, while her father Baálẹ̀ Olúkúnmi Ẹgbẹ́ladé is a renowned religious leader and priest, her mother is a Christian. This does not affect their relationship in any way and as Omítọ̀nàdé says, they celebrate each other.
Omítọ̀nàdé clamors against the demonization of Yoruba spirituality. In 2015 she spoke at an Ake festival panel, which was where we first met. She reminded us that before Islam and Christianity came to Yoruba land, Òrìsà prevailed. In 2016, she presented a paper at the University of Ibadan titled ‘Roles and Acceptability of Indigenous Religion for National Development’ during the Cultural Day Colloquium. She called on the Government to promote indigenous languages in official spaces and support traditional medicine as it is a viable source of revenue for the country. In a subsequent article titled ‘Drums in African Tradition Religion’, she stressed the importance of music in Òrìsà worship. Just as humans have their favorite genres so do Òrìsàs. Ṣàngó and Yẹmọja prefer the bàtà drums while the agogo bells are unique to Ifá.
Many fail to realize that Òrìsà worship is as valid and as distinct as any other religion that exists. In a bid to explore this, Iyaolorisa and I exchanged messages discussing her faith.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — What does the word ‘Juju’ mean to you?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Juju means bad charm to me. And the word does not exist in Yoruba spirituality.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — Let’s talk about Yoruba Indigenous religion…
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Yoruba religion comprises the traditional, religious and spiritual concepts and practice of the Yoruba people. In Yoruba spirituality, we can’t do without our Ori. Ori is you — the essential divinity in you that struggles to maintain consistency with your chosen destiny on your behalf. Even in the worship of our head guardian Òrìsà, it is Ori that determines the quality of our relationship with Òrìsà. It is because the Irunmole and Òrìsà put their Orí before them, it made them their mission to be accomplished on terrestrial earth. When we give sacrifice to Òrìsà, we are asking the blessing of the Òrìsà on behalf of our Ori.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — Who is the Irunmole?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Irunmole are the messengers of Olodumare. They descended from ikole orun to ile aye. They were those supernatural beings that first visited Ikole Aye (earth) and actually made earth habitable for human beings. The Òrìsà are also messengers of Olodumare. They were born just like men and lived in exemplary ways of Irunmole. They didn’t die on earth but were deified. We have 801 Irunmole. Igba Irúnmolè olùk’òtún. Igba Irúnmolè olùk’òsì. Òkànléní erínwó Irúnmolè tán ń t’òrun bò wá’lé Ayé ( 200 Irunmole at the right-hand side, 200 Irunmole at the left-hand side, 401 Irunmole descended from ikole orun to ile aye). This assertion made it known that 200 Irunmole are always at the right hand and another 200 are at the left hand side of Olodumare while the remaining 401 were the ones that came from ikole orun to ile aye.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — And what is their purpose?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Their purposes are many. They help us support the development of spiritual consciousness. They help us develop of Suuru(patience) and Iwa pele(balanced character). They help us get in tune with the universal energies. They help us know who we truly are and know our divine role here on earth.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — Where does Ifa come in?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Ifa is a system of divination. Ifa is the esoteric word of Olodumare. Literally, Ifa is just like a bible or Quran. It contains the verses of the literary corpus that is known as Odu Ifa. It has 256 corpus. It is the embodiment of the totality of human existence. Ifa is consulted for guidance and assurance. Orunmila is the great interpreter of Ifa.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — Orunmila, the Òrìsà of wisdom and divination?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Yes, but all Òrìsà are for divination. They are channels we used to communicate to Olodumare. Only Orunmila devotees make use of Opele and Ikin Ifa and Olorisa(Orisa devotee) make use of Erindilogun(sixteen cowries) for divination. I am an Òrìsà priestess. My area of specialty is on divinity, divination, initiation, Òrìsà propitiations and so on.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — How did you come to be an Òrìsà priestess?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — One does not just choose to become an Òrìsà priest/priestess. Òrìsà chose me. Being initiated into any Òrìsà may make you a devotee. However, to become a practicing diviner (priest or priestess) takes years and years of diligent study.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — What made Òrìsà choose you? What are the markings of the chosen one?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Divination. That’s all.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — I read about Erindilogun lightly when I was writing our article about cowries. I learned that the positions the cowries land on tell about a person. What do they say? Is it possible to tell a person’s past or future?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — The things they say are personal. And yes, it is possible to tell a person’s past, present, and future. Because we have 3 ways we modify one’s Ori or destiny in Yoruba spirituality.
1. Through either Ifa or Òrìsà divination
2. Through Ifa or Òrìsà propitiations
3. Through Ifa or Òrìsà initiation
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — If I wanted something specific like a child or money, what would I have to do?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — We can’t do anything except we do divination. Only then will the Òrìsà put us through to find the solution. The divination requires consultation fee, person’s birth name, and mother’s name.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — Is there any particular reason for using the mother’s name and not the father’s name?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Though both of them are our progenitors (isese), we came through our mothers. Ifa Odu Ogunda Owonrin states:
Baba eni isese eni
Iya eni isese eni
Isese labo kato bo Orisa
This means: “it is our mothers and our fathers who are our isese. It is isese we pay homage to before paying homage to orisa”. But mother is a deity. Yeye omo l’oloro omo. One’s mother is the architect of one’s fortune.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — What are some of the misconceptions about your religion that you’d like to debunk?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — We are not idol worshippers. I practice Òrìsà spirituality. The word “Òrìsà” doesn’t translate to idol or god. Òrìsà is Òrìsà or deity. Olodumare proves its existence through nature. Each Òrìsà represents nature. Sango is the Òrìsà of thunder and lightning. Osun, Yemoja, Olokun, Òrìsà of waters. Osanyin is the Òrìsà of herbs, leaves and roots and many more. We only have icons not idols of Òrìsà. Icon or implement of Sango is Edun ara (Thunderstone), Ogun is iron or metal, Esu is yangi stone and many more. Nollywood has done more harm than good to Yoruba spirituality. We need to correct the misconception and misinterpretation. They have fixated the negative impression that our people dwell in. However, our people have been brainwashed and whitewashed by colonial mentality. We need to question everything we see. Don’t stop asking questions, only then, would we be enlightened. We need to tell our stories ourselves.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — I totally agree with retelling our stories. Chinua Achebe said that until the lions tell their story, the tale of the hunt would always glorify the hunter. JuJu is committed to taking actions challenging the demonization of African culture, we hope that the stigma and religious intolerance will be a thing of the past in the future we create. How can we, as people can change the perspective of Yoruba spirituality that is currently being peddled?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Like I said, the main issue is lack of understanding and ignorance. For years, a lot of misinformation and lies have been spread about our traditional practices, and that’s the root of the problem. We need to promote public discourse about Òrìsà spirituality. This should include writing blogs, articles to newspapers, short videos on YouTube, and even symposiums at universities and other learning institutions. The goal is to challenge the general perception through the same media used to spread misinformation. Truly a lot of information about Òrìsà worship is secret knowledge and this allows people to spread lies. This does not mean that we should bring out esoteric knowledge, but just a bit of it and the tenets of the belief should be made accessible to everyone. It took years to spread the negative perception about Òrìsà spirituality, so changing it will not happen immediately but every attempt to change the perception of people with true information goes a long way. The approach has to be systematic. For lack of better words, we have to make it “pop” and attractive. Traditional Indian spirituality is trendy today, but it is not so different from Òrìsà worship. I think the only difference is the way it has been portrayed to the world and that’s what we need to work on.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — Thank you for sitting with me to have this talk. Modupe pupo.
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Ko tope. No problem

PREFACE
Taking a good look at our condition in the Diaspora, we as decedents of Africans must reflect on our history. We must ponder on the journey which our forefathers endured. It is because of their desire to survive and overcome against all odds that we are here today. Are we any different than our forefathers? I would like to say that we are not. We have within ourselves all that glorious energy and will to endure the harshest of conditions life may throw our way. We have the power within us to overcome and conquer any and all obstacle because they are within us. There is a tremendous spiritual energy working within the hearts and soul of our people. This energy is stimulating our psyche to the point wherein we can't help but believe there is truly a merciful God in the midst of all of this world
In my opinion, I believe the Yoruba tradition of Ifa-Orisa sits at the top of the pyramid of every practical, theoretical, and traditional practice or study. Again, this is simply my opinion.
I awakened to my spirituality in a very horrible way. I’ve written about this here many times before but it was my spirituality, my awakening, that pushed me to Ifa. As a matter of fact, after my awakening, I was told to go to a church that I did not grow up in: Revival/Zion. While in the revival church, I began to use the wisdom that my sweet Padrino had taught me years before to show the way of studying nature to the Bishops and Pastors of my church. Eventually, same church, or should I say the same Christian God, sent me to Africa… to Ifa.
Now this post is about the spirituality behind Ifa and Orisha as a traditional practice.
In this post, I will try my best to explain what is happening behind what you see.
In Nigeria, Ifa traditional practice is the study and veneration of nature as pure energy. What I mean by “pure energy” is this: Every leaf, every stem, every flower, etc. all have a particular animistic energy that allows it to work for human beings and the earth.
These energies are all of Light.
*Note: No energy that comes up on our Earth Plane is ever dark. They are all Light. When that energy gets ready to play a “negative” role in our lives, that energy now manifests itself as dark. Malevolent beings are seen as dark beings, but they are actually Light beings that take on the “role” of dark when something needs to happen (i.e. car crash, natural disasters, even obeah, etc.) in order for something to change. Darkness is necessary because everything begins with it. Like a pregnancy, it gives way to form, i.e. change, ideas, physical manifestations, “knowing”, what is tangible, what has arrived, etc.
But Let’s Start With The Babalawo
A Babalawo, before becoming independent and working as a Babalawo for the community, must go through extensive training. Within the training, they will learn many things. Not only how to understand the use of the oracles and the verses attached to each odu, but also how to use nature for medicines (spiritually) or for work to aid humankind. Now, the master of the Awo in training also had a master, and so did the master before him and before him etc. So in Ifa, everything is handed down orally.
What is not realized by some is that those old masters are the ones who now sit beside the Awos in their non-physical form and continues to teach in spirit.
A newly trained Awo can cast Ifa, but it also depends on how open his spirit is to receive the information from generations of non-physical, well-trained masters. These non-physical masters will not only teach him while he works or studies, but also while he sleeps.
So some Babalawos will know extensive knowledge about odus without ever having been taught by their physical master. It would be a “knowing” that they develop, and this “knowing” is what is given to them by non-physical teachers.
Everything in life is spiritual, whether you know it or not. Nothing is ever mechanical.
Ifa Traditional Medicines
A leaf burnt to make a medicine instantly becomes a spirit. How? Because there was a spirit attached to this leaf before it was used for this preparation. This is why every tree and every leaf has a name, just like every human being has a name. So, if I wanted John to go to the shop for me, I would call him by his name and send him on errand.
Just like calling John, the Awo has to use incantation to “wake up” the medicine in order for it to now become “alive” and go out to work for the human it will be given to. By “alive” I mean that the medicine has now become a messenger. If you have used the Herb & Prosperity Medicine from the shop this is how that medicine works.
Now, when I send John to the shop, John needs a mode of transportation. When the Awo makes the medicine, it will now use the breeze to carry it through. If the medicine was for prosperity, it will use the breeze to search for avenues to bring prosperity. Because the breeze is an element of nature and a force within itself, it will now become activated by this medicine, and the two work together for the benefit of the human.
How is this knowledge given so that it can be passed along through generations? All of this knowledge is not only passed down through training, but also through non-physicals (a spirit still alive and conscious). The more a non-physical assists the human in evolution and growth is the more that non-physical elevates into Light Continuum.
The spirituality behind tradition is the activation of non-physical beings who must also be propitiated always. Therefore, the reverence and sacrifice to the ancestors and your Ori are important. It is the non-physicals or those from the ancestral world that will lead someone from Iceland or Greenland all the way to tradition without them ever having heard of it before. They, the spirits, are like salt, which without it, the food can never be good. They act as an activation for everything spiritual that needs to be done or learned.

They, the spirits, are like salt, which without it, the food can never be good. They act as an activation for everything spiritual that needs to be done or learned.
What Happens When You Are Initiated
I spoke to someone yesterday who was a part of a particular spiritual house in America. She practices a system similar to that of the Yorubas, although she is not initiated. During our conversation, she informed me that she had done a ceremony to receive Elekes (ìlẹ̀kẹ̀ in Yoruba).
After the reading, I asked her “Who will initiate you?” and after she told me, I wished her the best, but being who I am, I could not end the conversation without sharing some information.
If a person needs to be initiated to Ifa, a trained and competent Babalawo who is the reprensentative of Orunmila on Earth and has the Ase to pass over will be the one to do this type of initiation. If you initiate to an Orisa, the Babalawo will call the custodians of that particular Orisa to assist him. The custodians hold the Ase (power/rights/rituals) to that Orisa, therefore it is they who can pass it over correctly. However, it is compulsory for a Babalawo to be present during an Orisa initiation due to the necessary odu and sacrifices that will be needed.
Neither a Babalawo nor an Olorisa can do an Orisa initiation by himself. Every person involved comes with their own Ase to impart.
Getting initiated to Ifa is a very big protection for many things, which I will explain soon. Getting initiated to an Orisha, on the other hand, is like having your personal guardian angel support your destiny. However, as I said before, Ifa is a guide. So imagine someone directing you: make a right here, don’t go there, go straight, avoid there, etc. This is the role of Ifa. The interesting part is that everything Ifa is guiding you away from or guiding you towards are all things written by you (your spirit). You were literally the author of your own destiny.
Initiation to Ifa is an amazing rights of passage to your spiritual journey, evolution and elevation. However, there are some that initiation is a must for. There can be many reasons for this: a chosen destiny, to save a life (or lives), healing, to collect a great blessing, to stop an ill fate, to rewrite a destiny for the better, for protection, etc.
Before initiation,This does take time but what it does is ground and balances a person spiritually, emotionally, psychologically, physically and then some. For some, the process can be gradual, but then no baby is born and walks out of the hospital.
This is why Ifa initiation is recommended to be done first because Ifa is the guide. It is through Ifa that one will now know not only the Orisa that rules his or her head but also the Orisa(s) that he or she will need to support him or her through their life.
You do not have to be Yoruba to embrace this tradition. Ifa’s children spreads far and wide across the world. It does not matter if you are Christian, Muslim, or something else, if Ifa is in your blood, Ifa will find you.
Getting Ifa is like being handed a book of your own destiny. The title of the book is your Odu and inside of this book are all the things you have written for your life before coming to Earth; both the good and the bad. As the Babalawos read your book and interpret, they see many things: wealth and plenty of children, or famine and poverty. However, because we create our realities, initiation helps you rewrite your destiny. So if famine, poverty, untimely death or illness was in the future, with Ifa’s guidance (i.e. a sacrifice, medicine, taboo, etc.) that unfortunate future can be changed.
Observe the image above which was taken during an Obatala initiation. Everything used during initiations has its specific meaning and symbolism. From the cloth they wear, to the way the cloth is tied, to the markings (a coded language) written upon the head and body, to the movements or sounds made, and propitiations. All of this is done ritualistically in the calling down of the energy (Orisha).
What Energy Has To Do With Initiations
a person may feel their life is unaligned. They may experience many things: obeah, confusion, difficulties, they may feel lost, or drawn to a particular or many roads of spirituality, at times life may just become too hectic. If we were to take an X-RAY of that person’s life, the X-RAY may look something like this:
After initiation, and adhering to taboos and keeping up with sacrifices, the person will now become aligned with their destiny. Therefore, what has been tangled before now gradually begins to untangle, until finally those chaotic lines straighten out. This is when the initiate has become aligned totally with their destiny and the X-RAY now looks like this:
The entire initiation process is a process of transference, shifting and manipulation of energy. I use the image above to show you the hundreds (or thousands) of dots floating around. Those are energies, or spirits.
So the “force” (Orisa) that is called upon you now becomes “apart” of you. In a metaphorical way, it sits atop your head and you and it have become one. As time goes on, you will begin to take on characteristics of that Orisa. This will take time as the Orisa develops overtime within the person. So the older you get, is the more that energy binds itself with you.
We ascribe gender to Orishas only for better understanding of the human due to limitations of the mind. However, Orishas are pure energies and therefore genderless. Shango, for example, is seen and described as masculine because of the harshness of lightening and thunder and the rage within fire. In human form, these are masculine traits. Osun is seen as feminine because the river is seen as soft, sweet, clean and flowing.
When these energies are now placed alongside or within any type of ancestral spirits or statues or ascribed a new personality, that pure energy is no longer pure. If you put a masculine pure energy and change it to a feminine energy, and that feminine energy is not pure but is instead ancestral, then that once masculine energy has lost its purity. So what happens when that new energy is given to someone during initiation? It is like a hybrid and just as that energy has been crossed or tainted, so will now the human become. This, fortunately, is not the case in Africa.
The Yorubas have mastered the art of manipulating energy correctly.
Initiation includes certain sacrificial rights, the feeding/propitiation and invocation of energies and inviting them into the space through acts and symbolic language. It is further advanced through sound such as drumming, singing and dancing. The words, melody, and tune all work to create a passageway for that particular energy or source to come down. In other words, we are calling “spirits/live energies” and calling them into this space. It is to create frequency which will act as a signal to the particular Orisa you are seeking to come.
So this is a part of what I mean by “passing along Ase” because it is the custodians of the Orisa that will know the correct rights and rituals or insignia to bring in the Orisa.
In the world of Occult, you can not call a spirit unless you know his signature, otherwise everything can turn upside down for that person.
Each initiate, including the new initiate, carries the Ase of that Orisa. That Ase stays within that individual and grows more and more and more as he develops further into his spirituality. So, the custodian passing along his Ase is him or her passing along that energy. The longer one has been initiated or has been a custodian of that Orisa is the more powerful and potent his or her Ase becomes.
There are so many things to know in understanding Ifa-Orisha from a metaphysical point of view. There is much to learn because most of us on the other side of the world were not born within the tradition.
It was a journey for me to get to Ifa (the struggles I had in my life), but I have arrived, and at my best. I have brought my children along, and I believe this is the best thing I have ever done for them.

Description
The Yoruba of southwestern Nigeria are exceptional for the copresence among them of three religious traditions: Islam, Christianity, and the indigenous orisa religion. In this comparative study, at once historical and anthropological, Peel explores the intertwined character of the three religions and the dense imbrication of religion in all aspects of Yoruba history up to the present. For over 400 years, the Yoruba have straddled two geocultural spheres: one reaching north over the Sahara to the world of Islam, the other linking them to the Euro-American world via the Atlantic. These two external spheres were the source of contrasting cultural influences, notably those emanating from the world religions. However, the Yoruba not only imported Islam and Christianity but also exported their own orisa religion to the New World. Before the voluntary modern diaspora that has brought many Yoruba to Europe and the Americas, tens of thousands were sold as slaves in the New World, bringing with them the worship of the orisa.
Peel offers deep insight into important contemporary themes such as religious conversion, new religious movements, relations between world religions, the conditions of religious violence, the transnational flows of contemporary religion, and the interplay between tradition and the demands of an ever-changing present. In the process, he makes a major theoretical contribution to the anthropology of world religions.

How man makes God in West Africa: Yoruba attitudes towards the Orisa
Karin Barber
DOI: https://doi.org/10.2307/1159606
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 December 2011
Extract
The idea that gods are made by men, not men by gods, is a sociological truism. It belongs very obviously to a detached and critical tradition of thought incompatible with faith in those gods. But Yoruba traditional religion contains built into it a very similar notion, and here, far from indicating scepticism or decline of belief, it seems to be a central impulse to devotion. The òrìṣà (‘gods’) are, according to Yoruba traditional thought, maintained and kept in existence by the attention of humans. Without the collaboration of their devotees, the òrìṣà would be betrayed, exposed and reduced to nothing. This notion seems to have been intrinsic to the religion since the earliest times. How can such an awareness be part of a devotee's ‘belief’? Rather than speculate abstractly, as Rodney Needham does (Needham 1972), about whether people of other cultures can be said to ‘believe’ at all, it seems more interesting to take a concrete case like the Yorba one where there is an unexpected–even apparently paradoxical–configuration of ideas, to ask how these ideas are constituted. Only by looking at them as part of a particular kind of society, with particular kinds of social relationships, can one see why such a configuration is so persuasive. The notion that men make gods is by no means unique to Yoruba thought. It is present to some degree in a number of traditional West African religions, and in some, such as the Kalahari one, it can be seen in an even more explicit form than in the Yoruba one. A comparison may help to show how it is the constitution of social relationships which makes such a notion not just acceptable but central to the religious thought of the society.

Cowrie Shell Divination & Ifa Spiritual Tools
Sango ~ Orisa of Fire
Sango is one of the most well loved and charismatic of the orisa. Also known as arira, “light and fire that flashes here and there in the sky”, he is not to be mistaken as the son of Oranmiyan and the one time Alaafin of Oyo. It is very important to distinguish between irunmole and humans, who because of their feats and behavior in life, were elevated to irunmole status while alive. This myth of Sango the irunmole as the Alaafin of Oyo seems to be very prevalent in the diaspora but is soundly rejected in Yorubaland. Odu Ifa (Owonrin Wori) clearly state that any reference to Sango in the Kingdom of Oyo is due to the King of Oyo naming his two sons, Ajaka, and the other Sango, because of the latter’s character and powers similar to that of the ancient orisa Sango. There is a difference between humans who were given title as an orisa because of their feats during life, and the irunmole. Hardly anyone uses the word “orisa” in Yorubaland, they use irunmole when speaking of the forces which humans have anthropomorphized to call orisa. Ifa speaks in parables, and even when talking about which orisa had many “wives” and seemingly human endeavors, there is a deeper meaning if we look into the matter. There is a spiritual meaning beyond what our human mind wants to make fit so neatly with our own lives and social environment.
Sango is known as the Lord of Thunder, a master herbalist, and one who metes out Justice by means of the thunder and fire that he can blow from his mouth, and his use of the many thunder stones he throws to strike his enemies down. He dresses in a tunic and skirt of strips of cloth covered with cowrie shells in intricate designs and plaits his hair in the fashion of a woman. Many statues and icons are mistakenly thought in the diaspora to be those of female orisa when in fact they are depicting Sango with a bosom as he is also an orisa linked to fertility.
Sango’s nature is very masculine, straight forward, bold, confident, energetic, brilliant and confident. Children of Sango are usually very attractive, tall and slim limbed, adventurous and have little patience with slow thinkers. This is due to Sango being a brilliant strategist and tactician; a natural leader who rallies people around him. Magnetic, intelligent, Sango uses his talents to push strategies and plans through to a successful outcome. He is capable of succeeding in all matters of Justice and just as capable to relish the fruits of his conquests and victories after the battle is won.
Many praise oriki recite his virtues:
Ino loju, ino lenu: fire in the eyes and mouth.
Aa fi igba ita segun: One that won battle with 200 stones.
Onimu nsimu, eke nsa: Sango is working and the dishonest are nervous and fleeing.
Oloju orogbo, elereke obi: One that has eyes of bitter kola and cheeks of obi seeds.
Sango lomo aa ja maa jebi: Wherever and whenever Sango fights, judgment is always on his side
Ayanyan ino, akata yeriyeri: Light and flames that blow here and there.
Sango lo mewe , emi ko mewe: I do not know how to use herbs and leaves, but Sango knows very well)
Sango possesses both male and female devotees, and while in trance can eat fire, walk on coals, and carry a live brazier of coals on the head or place coals in their mouths. Sango is owner of the most spirited dancing and his leaps and high kicks are fantastic to watch as he dances to the very fast paced beat of his signature drumming.
Sango priests can be seen in Yorubaland performing feats of magic such as cutting the eyes, tongue, skin with a machete and within seconds the wound will stop bleeding and heal up before the eyes. They pierce the skin with needles, swords, nails, razors and suffer no permanent damage. Sango makes the human body impervious to injury while manifested and he is linked to the sacred Baobab tree which is also the only tree in the forest that can withstand fire and remain standing. Baobab tree bark, roots, leaves and fruit and its use in Ifa medicine/preparations is sacred to Sango and at the tree’s base after a thunderstorm, Sango’s edun ara ( a smooth stone shaped like an ax head), can often be found along with smaller thunder stones. Devotees search for these after thunderstorms to use in their devotion and for protection.
Sango was historically married to Oya, the river orisa, who rises up to create rain drenched wind storms and tempests, and some say it was actually she who gave the power of fire to Sango. What is certain is that wherever Oya arrives, Sango soon follows. He is a strict enforcer of justice and detests liars, thieves, dishonesty and insincerity. The children of Sango are also very astute in the judgement of character and do not tolerate liars, will fight passionately to defend those who are wronged, and take vengeance on those of bad action and character. They must always strive to those ideals of honesty and truth.
Some of the symbols of Sango are his two headed axe, or ose, and this is always in his shrine along with an upturned mortar, the edun ara on a clay plate covered with palm oil and many small stones which are used to fight enemies. His colors are red, white and some black, the cloth is usually always elaborately covered with cowrie shells. There can be bata drums and there is always a seere, a small gourd which is used in the shrine offerings and its larger cousin can also be used as a musical instrument when covered with a net of beads called a shekere, in the diaspora. The seere gourd has a long history with Sango and you will never find one without the other.
The Story of Sango and the Seere
A verse from Oyeku Rete says:
…Adifafun sere ti o fe Igbadun leyin Sango Thus declared Ifa oracle to Seere that wanted to pair up with Sango.
Seere is the one that announced the arrival of Sango to the townspeople, just as the Oba’s messenger who runs before the arrival of the King, that Sango would soon be coming to help the people solve their physical and spiritual problems and afflictions, as well as pray for their material needs. After Seere’s announcement, Sango would appear and immediately solve their problems. He performed as a physician using herbs and leaves (contained in the magical Seere) as well as foreseeing and predicting the future. Almost all of the people would give them money, fine cloth and many other gifts for assisting them overcome their troubles. When Sango and Seere reached their home one day to divide their gifts, Sango said that he would take the larger share, simply because he was the doctor attending to the people, while Seere only summoned for them. Seere rejected the notion and said they were full partners so they should either share the gifts equally or they should split up. Both of them agreed to dissolve their partnership and went their separate ways. Then, whenever each of them went out to work alone, people said, “this is not the real Seere! The Seere we know announces the arrival of Sango!”. The same happened when Sango went out, people said, “the coming of the real Sango we know is always announced by Seere!”. So both starved and they didn’t receive any food, gifts, or money as recognition from the people. Unbeknownst to each other they now separately went to consult the Ifa oracle. Ifa then revealed to them that they should settle the dispute that had arisen between them so they can have progress in life. They became partners again and Seere continued to announce the arrival of Sango and contain his ewe, leaves for Ifa medicine (ewe oogun). It is for this reason that since that day Seere the gourd is always found in most shrines next to the ota of Sango.
Product Description
This volume rests on the crucial recognition that Yorba culture has extended far beyond the boundaries of Nigeria. For members of Yoruba diaspora, temporal and geographic distance has not fully erased their memory or cultural activism. Orisa worship remains one of the most prominent and recognizable evidence of this connection. With millions of Orisa practitioners in the world, Yoruba gods are very much alive and form part of the Nigerian and Yoruba diasporan religious experience. This Volume seeks to introduce new ideas, perspectives, and methodologies on Orisa worship. The chapters reflect a multi-disciplinary approach to orsia study, covering a wide range of topics such a divination, the practice of Santeria, festivals and songs, the creation of the orisa-based communities within the United States, and globalization of cults. Most importantly, the volume documents the survival of religious practices, and its important role of reinforcing cultural values within a community as well as empowering its members to progress in the modern world.

Orisa Is Not Idol Worship
Religion, Tradition Comments Off on Orisa Is Not Idol Worship 13,953 Views
The word”IDOL”, is derived from the Greek word, ‘EIDOLON’ which simply means, “image”. In the continent of Africa, I have not seen, read of or heard about the image of ‘GOD’ demonstrated in one form or the other whether in the form of a picture, mould, carving or drawing which can conveniently provoke and promote the thought of Man to realizing the possible ‘morphology’ (shape or form) of God. It is quite clear to an African that ‘Olodumare’ (God) is transcendental and hence, it borders down on abomination and self-deceit to represent God in a form whatsoever.
It is to be recognized that images of objects can be formed concrete or verbal. Hence, to the mind of every African, God becomes a formless Force of Supremacy (Megaforce) duly recognized as real, active, alive and omnipresent governing the earth and heavens, indeed, the universe!
It is emphatically certain, in all the above (as earlier explained ) in the way of “service” of the. Supreme Force by the African-man (at the instance of the Deities), through propitiations, that there is no noticeable “image” of any form that is worshipped; real objects of Nature that found favour-use with the Deities (while on earth) are only assembled to serve as the substratum to magnetize the spirit of the Deities under propitiation – as such Deities are believed by the African as the intermediaries btween him and God when invoked or appealed to (by supplication or otherwise); or they (Deities) cross his path-ways to God when unrecognzed or neglected or abandoned.
Logically, it should be recognized that there is a difference between worshipping “something” and standing before something” to worship something as a way of (better) service to the original something best known to the intermediates. And so, to recognize, call or identify Traditional Religion (Ifa) as Idol-worship” calls for a better brain to scrutinize, examine, and admit (for criterion-justification of sanity) when the true meaning of the word, Idol (derived from Greek, Eidolon) means “imega”. Hence, it is a misuse of word by men of mean reasoning who wallow in dersion and unwarranted condemnation of “that” which belongs to them, when, especially, they find themselves wanting in deep and meaningful researches into that which belongs to them. Africans are, by no means, idol-worshippers in their ways of service to the Supreme Force as they act in consonance with reality of existence of Man on earth vis-a-vis the Deities ‘et al’.
“Ifa” says; ‘That’ with which they are born wins not their admiration. It is the foreign ideals that they embrace very readily Divined for the (baited) hook which goes with the fish (in the waters)
Now, howbeit, that all the goodies(of life) that are out of our reach. Let the hook (of good fortune) plus our inner (spiritual) head bait them all to our gainful advantage.

from heaven at the same time. They descended to lloya with chain like the other Orisa. Obarese was a powerful man during his time on Earth and had many magical elements at his disposal. Oranfe is Obarese’s older brother. Because of his power, Oranfe wanted Obarese to leave his domain. Oranfe has thunder (Ara) and is first god that had the power where fire could come out from his mouth. Obarese can cause rain to fall whenever he wants. Ifa was consulted , and Oranfe told Obarese that he is to have a wife. Oranfe then slapped the rib of Obarese and changed the rib into a woman. The name of the woman is Osere.
Osere and Obasrese proceeded on their journey to leave the domain of Oranfe. They stopped at three locations. The first land was Igbodo and they relaxed well there and they want to stay. Oranfe then appeared to his brother and told him that he and his wife must proceed on with their journey. Obarese carried out his Ifa and Odu, he then perform ritual and he prayed to Olodumare. There was a tree where he and his wife were sitting and he directed his magic to the tree and the tree turned to a hill. This hill remains in Ife to today and is still the site of great magic and ritual.
Obarese continued on his journey. He stopped next in Gidi Ogbo. He met people that were joyful, they were celebrating an Ifa festival. They welcome him with pounded yam and melon soup and he want to start eating. Oranfe appeared to Obarese again and told him that he couldn’t eat the soup and had to continue on the journey. Obarese again took out his Opon Ifa and Odu and performed a ritual, he turned the soup into a great stone. This stone is still in Gidi Ogbo and is worshiped today.
Oranfe said that he had to move beyond river bank. Obares went to a place Igbo Ogbe. Obarese was afraid to cross the river. Oranfe said he should not fear and once he gets to the other side he will tell him what to do. After he crossed the river to the other side, Oranfe said that from that moment on, Obarese should never again come into his domain except for Oranfe’s festival.
Obarese never went again into his brother’s domain and he continued his life. He performed one wonder where he prayed to Olodumare to have yam grow during the Harmattan when nothing can grow. He reached a new home during the Harmattan and his family needed food but was unable to plant yam. He prayed and performed a ritual for the yam to grow in three days. The yam grew plentiful at the end of three days:
oko su lojo oko
oko ko isu awure legbe
He was also the first man to plant and grow the palm wine tree in one day and to take the palm wine out that very day. He had access to many powers.
During the reign of one Olofin, the people of the Ife communities were dying of hunger. The herbalists were unable to take care of them. During that time rain did not fall. The Olofin called a priest to come and find the solution but they could solve the problem. The people of the town told the Olofin that Obarese had the power to call for rain. Olofin called Obarese to come and solve this problem and he told Olofin that he will solve but he will need 6 pounded yam, rat fish and other material to perform the ritual. With this he had a power pot called Ikoko Elemeji, which he used to make the sacrifice and perform the ritual. During the ritual he was sang this song:
tojo nika losoro tojo nika losoro
iran je tan iran mu
tan tojo losoro
They called the (ojo ) rain. From that night the rain came. The Olofin said that he was a real powerful man and gave him his own respect. The other dieties became jealous and said he must leave their domain. He went to his friend Oluorogbo he give him his ikoko elemeji. Oluorogbo told Obarese that he wouldn’t betray him. Whenever the festival for Obarese was performed the rain would fall, they had to just call him and he will bring the ase. With that Obarese left that place. At the end of the day the Olofin began to beg to call the Obaro his friend Oluorogbo he give him his ikoko elemeji. Oluorogbo told Obarese that he wouldn’t betray him. Whenever the festival for Obarese was performed the rain would fall, they had to just call him and he will bring the ase. With that Obarese left that place. At the end of the day the Olofin began to beg to call the Obarese back. Obarese accepted and agreed to come back to his home. He went to see Oluorogbo and asked for his ikoko elemeji and he gave it back.
Another wonder that was performed by Obarese was when he was in the town of Ijugbe. Obarese one day was looking for an olo (grinding stone). He was in the process of making a powerful medicine. There was a tortoise that lived near his home. He saw the tortoise and turned him into a grinding stone to complete the medicine. This grinding stone is still in the Ijugbe shrine today. It is still used to make very powerful medicine.
Abon is a young woman that became an old woman. She stopped by the house of Obarese and asked Obarese if she could stay the night. At dinner time, Obarese wanted to eat pounded yam for dinner and he asked the older woman if she would like to eat pounded yam, she didn’t want pounded yam but wanted only egg. She wanted 16 eggs. Obarese’s wife became angry because of the inconvenience of fixing 16 eggs. Obarese told his wife to be calm, and gave the old woman 16 eggs making them one at a time. She ate the eggs and they showed her the room for her to sleep in that night. When the morning came, Obarese went to the farm. When he returned his wife was very upset because the old woman had not come out of the room. Obarese knocked on the door, then began to pull the door and it was stuck. He pulled very hard and the door opened. The room was filled with money and ileke , akun iyun and all other assorted ileke . The wife became scared and forced the door shut. Obarese opened it again and the old woman walked out and become the beautiful lady. Obarese was very angry with his wife Osere, and when very powerful men get angry some curses will fly out. Because of this, Osere was stricken with pox on her face and couldn’t leave the house again because she was embarrassed. From that time on, Obarese was a very wealthy man and never wanted for anything.
Orisa Obarese is the first to use ileke, akun iyun and other things to make beautiful clothing and also to wear it around his neck and he has his own special beads.

ABOUT
Carried to the Americas by slaves, the 8,000-year-old philosophy of Ifa originated with the Yoruba peoples of West Africa. Ifa's enduring message of strength and inner peace, one that offers a way to harmonize our spiritual and worldly aims, is enjoying a resurgence of popularity in the West.
Written by an avid student and accomplished practitioner, The Way of the Orisa provides an exhilarating introduction to the orisa, the powerful messenger spirits who act as our personal guardians. Through fables, rituals, prayers and simple guidelines, Philip Neimark shows how we can further our personal and professional goals by cultivating the loving support of orisa energy.
Joyous, wise and eminently practical, The Way of the Orisa brings a vibrant ancient tradition to contemporary life.

here’s an expression: I hate to say I told you so. Well I don’t hate it at all. I enjoy it quite a bit, actually.
And when it comes to Overwatch’s newest character, I told you so. Granted, so did a lot of other people, but so what? My theory was terrific. The best theory. Everybody thinks so.
There wasn’t a snowball’s chance in Numbani that the newest addition to the game would be a little girl.
I’m even more pleased that it wasn’t a third human woman. Instead, we got Orisa, an Omnic centaur-like creature that Blizzard describes as an anchor-tank, or someone the rest of the team can rally ’round.
Orisa is a really cool character. Not only is she a robot, she’s also sort of animal-like, or bug-like, combining my wish list for either a robot (like Bastion) or an animal (like Winston) into one. She’s also basically a combination of Bastion and Reinhardt, with maybe a touch of a few other characters. In other words, she’s totally new and she’s a blast to play.
I’ve played her in the Public Test Region and find her way more fun to play than the other two newbies, Sombra and Ana. That might just be personal bias, but it’s how I feel.
Orisa has a laser machine gun for her primary weapon, tosses an orb that sucks opponents toward it as her secondary, and can momentarily make herself really tough with the shift button. She can also toss shields out in front of her, and her Ultimate grants the rest of the team an attack buff. It’s a really useful, intuitive skill set, though I found myself tossing those shields way too far out in front of me.

ORISA OKO
ORISA OKO was a poor hunter, solitary save for his fife and his dog. If ever he lost his way out in the fields or the forest, he would begin to play some plaintive melody on his fife, and the sounds would lead the faithful dog to his side to guide him home.
He earned a meagre living by trapping in his nets guinea-fowls on the land of rich farmers, but because of his solitary life and his habit of silence, he was respected as a man possessed of secret knowledge which he did not care to divulge.
As years went by, he grew too old for hunting, and took up his residence in a cave. People now thought him more mysterious than ever, and came to him for advice about the future, so that in a short time he won great renown as a soothsayer. From far and near people came to consult him, and in this way he managed to live very comfortably.
In those days witchcraft was punished p. 13 by death, and it became the custom in the country that anyone suspected of the evil art should be dragged to Orisa Oko’s cave. If the soothsayer found him innocent, he led him forth by the hand, but if he were judged guilty, his head was cut off and thrown to the waiting crowd by the demon Polo, which Orisa Oko kept in the cave.
This went on until the old hunter’s death. His followers now wished to continue the practice, and so they hid in the cave a very strong man to act as the demon Polo. When anyone accused of witchcraft was brought to the cave, his head was usually cut off and thrown out as before.
However, it once happened that a very tall and muscular man was suspected of magic arts, and his accusers succeeded in dragging him to the cave. A large crowd waited with eagerness to learn the result. What was their dismay to see the head of the supposed “demon” come rolling out of the cave, for the strong man had proved too much for him, and soon reappeared unharmed and triumphant.
p. 14
The people were indignant to learn how they had been deceived, and from that day the cave of Orisa Oko was deserted.

MOREMI
A NOBLEMAN of Ile-Ife had a beautiful and virtuous wife named Moremi, and a handsome young son, Ela.
The country of the Ifes was at that time subject to fierce raids by a tribe called the Igbos, who were of such an uncanny appearance in battle that the Ifes thought them not human, but a visitation sent by the gods in punishment for some evil. In vain did they offer sacrifices to the gods; the raids of these strange beings continued, and the land was thrown into a state of pamc.
Now the heroic Moremi, desiring to bring an end to this condition of affairs, resolved to let herself be captured during one of the raids, so that she might be p. 15 carried as a prisoner to the land of the Igbos and learn all their secrets.
Bidding farewell to her husband and her little son, she went to a certain stream and promised the god of the stream that, if her attempt was successful, she would offer to him the richest sacrifice she could afford.
As she had planned, she was captured by the Igbos and carried away to their capital as a prisoner. On account of her beauty she was given to the King of the Igbos as a slave; and on account of her intelligence and noble heart she soon gained the respect of all and rose to a position of importance.
Before she had been in the country very long, she had learnt all the secrets of her enemies. She found that they were not gods but ordinary men. On going into battle they wore strange mantles of grass and bamboo fibre, and this accounted for their unnatural appearance. She also learned that because of these mantles of dry grass, they were much afraid of fire, and that if the Ifes were to rush among p. 16 them with lighted torches, they would quickly be defeated. As soon as it was possible, she escaped from the palace and from the territory of the Igbos and returned to her own people. Her tidings were joyfully received at Ile-Ife, and shortly afterwards the Igbos were utterly defeated by the trick Moremi had suggested.
Moremi now went to the stream and made a great sacrifice of sheep, fowls, and bullocks; but the god of the stream was not satisfied and demanded the life of her son.
Sorrowing, Moremi was forced to consent, and sacrificed the handsome boy Ela. The Ifes wept to see this sad spectacle, and they promised to be her sons and daughters for ever, to make up for her loss.
But lo! Ela as he lay upon the ground was only half dead, and when the people had departed, he recovered consciousness and sprang up. Making a rope of grass, he climbed up to heaven, and it is certain that he willSacred-Texts African Index Previous Next

THE LEOPARD-MAN
A HANDSOME stranger once came into a certain village and strolled about among the people in mysterious silence. All the maidens admired him and wished that he would choose one of them for his bride. But he said nothing, and at last walked away into the forest and disappeared from sight.
A month later the stranger came again, and this time one of the maidens fell so much in love with him that she resolved to follow him into the forest, as she could not bear to be separated from him.
When the stranger looked back and saw her coming behind him, he stopped, and begged her to return home; but she would not, and exclaimed: “I will never leave you, and wherever you go, I will follow.”
“Beautiful maiden, you will regret it,” replied the stranger sadly, as he hurried on.
After a while he stopped again, and once p. 19 more begged her to retrace her steps; but she made the same reply, and again the handsome stranger said in sorrowful tones: “You will regret it, beautiful maiden!”
They went far into the depths of the forest, and at length reached a tree at the foot of which there lay a leopard-skin. Standing under the tree, the stranger began to sing a melancholy song, in which he told her that though he was allowed once a month to wander about in villages and towns like a man, he was in reality a savage leopard and would rend her in pieces as soon as he regained his natural form.
With these words he flung himself upon the ground, and immediately became a snarling leopard and began to pursue the terrified girl.
But fear gave such speed to her feet that he could not overtake her. As he pursued her he sang that he would tear her in small pieces, and she in another song replied that he would never overtake her.
p. 20
For a great distance they ran, and then the maiden suddenly came to a deep but narrow river, which she could not cross. It seemed as if the leopard would catch her after all. But a tree, which stood on the river-bank, took pity on her and fell across the river, so that she was able to cross.
At last, nearly exhausted, she came to the edge of the forest and reached the village in safety. The leopard, disappointed of its prey, slunk back into the forest, and the handsome stranger was never seen again.

WTHE Bat is half a bird and half a rodent, and lives partly on the earth and partly in the air, but both rats and birds shun him, and this is why:
The rats, his cousins, were once fighting a great battle with the birds, and Bat fought in their midst.
But when he saw that the birds were likely to be victorious, he left the rats and flew up into the air to fight on the side of the birds.
Both the rats and the birds were disgusted at this cowardly action, so they ceased from fighting one another and all combined to attack the Bat.
Since that day he has been forced to hide in dark places all day, and only comes out in the evening when his enemies cannot see him.

The Yoruba : Olorun and Orisa

Two problems commonly arise with general accounts of Yoruba religion. Firstly, they often fail to indicate just how extensive are the variations from town to town. Some idea of this can be gained from comparing the detailed accounts of specific communities, such as Bascom’s study of Ife, (1944), Morton-Williams’ studies of Oyo and Egbado (1964a,1967a), or Ogunba’s study of Ijebu (1967). Secondly, some of the accounts, particularly by theologians, tend to make Yoruba religious thought appear far more systematic and coherent than it in fact is. Articulate informants like the babalawo may be able to describe the system as it appears to them, though even here there may be problems (Bascom, 1960: 405). But their accounts remain individual constructions rather than generally accepted bodies of dogma. Most actors are concerned with a body of folklore and ritual technique which will help them in everyday life, and both may vary from place to place. A body of folklore like the Ifa verses (Bascom, 1969b) may present a number of apparently inconsistent versions of the Yoruba world-view. It is not necessary to attempt to reconcile them, and there are obvious difficulties in doing so.
The Yoruba cosmos contains Olorun or Olodumare, the supreme deity; the orisa or lesser divinities; ancestral spirits, and a number of other categories of spiritual beings. Man is made up of both corporeal and spiritual elements, the latter having a variety of functions. These are related to Yoruba beliefs about destiny and reincarnation. Fulfilment of one’s destiny is achieved through avoiding the wrath of the orisa and the attacks of witches and sorcerers. This is done with the help of the orisa and the ancestors, and through piety, divination and sacrifice.
Olorun is to the Yoruba a rather distant figure, apparently playing little part in the day-to-day affairs of men. Idowu uses the analogy of the Yoruba oba who is responsible for the affairs of his kingdom, but who has little contact with his subjects, as most of his dealings with them are through the orisa. He argues that the orisa are, nevertheless, only the ministers of the deity, whose supremacy is clearly recognised. He is the creator, the final arbiter of heavenly and worldly affairs, omniscient, immortal and pure, and the source of all benefits to mankind (Idowu, 1962: 38-56).
The number of orisa worshipped by the Yoruba is very large, though they range in importance from those worshipped by only a single descent group in a single town to those whose cult is found throughout the area. Their nature and origins are varied. Some are personifications of natural features, such as hills or rivers, or of natural forces. Others are divinised heroes given cosmic attributes, such as Sango, the Oyo divinity of thunder and, by tradition, an early Alafin.[1] The important divinities lead hierarchies of minor ones with similar characteristics, symbols and functions. The ‘hard’ orisa are led by Ogun, the divinity of iron, hunting and war, while the benign ‘white’ orisa, particularly important to women, are led by Orisanla, the Yoruba creator. The parallels between these hierarchies and the Yoruba political system are obvious.Before the spread of the world religions, there was a close relationship between cult membership and descent (Bascom, 1944: 1ó8; 1969a: 77ó 8). A person normally attended the rituals of the orisa which his own parents had followed, and contributed to their cost, but would only be initiated into a cult if ‘called’, through dreams, sickness, possession or divination. If a woman prayed to an orisa for a child and her request was granted, the child would probably worship the orisa throughout its life. In some areas, the father asked a diviner at birth which orisa his child should follow.
Initiation into a cult involves lengthy training, and can be a period of intense emotional crisis. The cults of some orisa, particularly the ‘hot’ or ‘strong’ ones, involve spirit possession (Verger, 1963; Prince, 1964: 105-9). This usually affects women, though the Sango cult is an exception. The Sango possession priest, or elegun, is a man, but he is dressed in the clothes and hairstyle of a woman. During the Sango festival, he dances in a trance state and gives displays of power. In Ogbomoso in 1971 these included fire-eating, apparently piercing the lips with an iron needle, and turning leaves into cigarettes. During the initiation process, a lengthy torpor is produced, during which behaviour patterns appropriate to the orisa are learned. During the festivals, certain clues, like a particular type of drumming, are enough to send the initiate into a trance state.
Orisa worship involves three types of ritual. Firstly, there are private individual rites, carried out in the house, usually early in the morning. The worshipper greets his orisa, and divines with a kola nut what the prospects are for the day (Awolalu, 1970). Secondly, there are the regular rituals at the orisa’s shrine, and the cycle of these is based on the four-day Yoruba week.[2] Thirdly, there are the annual festivals, much more elaborate affairs involving a large proportion of the population of the town as well as cult members from elsewhere.
The ruler plays an important unifying role in religious life in the town, and the major festivals involve a procession to the palace to greet him and bestow on him the blessing of the orisa. Rulers are expected to participate in the annual festivals on behalf of their community, whatever their own religious beliefs. There are other links between religious and political organisation. In Oyo, many of the chiefs are also cult officials, and some of the most important cults have representatives in the palace (MortonWilliams, 1964a). The Sango cult was important in the administration of the provinces. It was controlled from the capital, and some of the ilari were initiates who could threaten supernatural sanctions, as could the Alafin himself. Elegun from other parts of the kingdom had to come to the capital for the final stages of initiation and to collect their ritual paraphernalia (Westcott and MortonWilliams,1962). Cult officials had to be called in when certain types of misfortune occurred. Sango priests were responsible for purificatory rites when a house was struck by lightning, and the victims had to pay heavy fees for their services. Albinos, hunchbacks, dwarfs and pregnant women were sacred to Orisanla, and had to be buried by his priests, while the clothes and bodies of smallpox victims were disposed of by the priests of Sopona. In the early colonial period, the Sopona cult was banned by the British when the cult members were suspected of spreading the disease deliberately
The major orisa in a Yoruba town have their shrines and priests with their distinctive dress and insignia. Each orisa has its favourite sacrificial offerings, and its followers observe a distinctive set of food taboos. The same basic symbolism often permeates all aspects of ritual. The followers of Orisanla wear white cloth, and the usual offerings are also white, such as boiled yams or snails cooked in shea butter. Each cult has its own rituals, music, oral literature, dances and divination techniques. To their followers, the orisa bring the benefits of health, wealth and children, but they punish neglect, impiety and the breaking of taboos.

Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ is an Orisa priestess who is also a graduate of Economics from the Obafemi Awolowo University. She was a guest at the last Aké Arts and Books Festival where she participated in a panel about the plurality of the African religious space. I caught up with her with a few questions of my own.
***
Tell me about yourself, your educational background.
My name is Ẹgbẹ́ladé Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́. I live in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria. I practice African Traditional Religion. I am a Yemọja Priestess, also versed in Ifá. I am a graduate of Ọbáfẹ́mi Awólọ́wọ̀ University, Ilé-Ifẹ̀, Ọṣun State where I studied Economics Education.
Tell me about your interest and knowledge of Ifá and Oriṣà worship. How did it begin, and why?
What interests me in Ifá and Òrìṣà worship is that it can help our people to connect with their Guardian Orìṣà and the ancestors. And in doing so, help them to follow their destiny and to be the best person they can be.
Ifá and Òrìṣà worship are the original spiritual practices in Africa especially in Yorùbáland. In Yorùbáland where the religion comes from, the worship, rituals and traditions were mainly family-based. The practice of Ifá/Orìsà is a spiritual path to transformation, a transformation from the inside out, that begins with you as an individual and ends with you as an individual. Ifá worship is different from Òrìṣà worship.
Ifá worship is practiced by a Babaláwo or Ìyánífá. Ifá is the esoteric word of Olódùmarè. Ifá is the connector between mankdind and Olódùmarè. Ọ̀rúnmìlà is the intermediary between Ifá and Olódùmarè. Ọ̀rúnmìlà is the Òrìṣà of wisdom, prophesy and ethnics. Babaláwo or Ìyánífá are believed to be able to contact Ọ̀rúnmìlà during their divination, rituals. They make use of Ọ̀pẹ̀lẹ̀ and Ikin Ifá as their means of divination. While Òrìsà Worship is being practiced by Babalórìṣà or Ìyálórìṣà. Òrìṣà are considered as ministers of Olódùmarè and intermediaries between humanity and Olódùmarè. Òrìṣà are human beings who once lived on earth and who performed in an exemplary way. They were later venerated as Òrìṣà after their death… people like Ṣàngó, Ọya, Ọ̀ṣun, Yemọja et al. Òrìṣà devotees make use of Ẹ̀rìndílógún (Sixteen Cowries) for their divination.
Ifa Orisa worship began from time immemorial. My take is that as mankind evolved and became aware of natural phenomena and the works of Olódùmarè around them, they found that all these things couldn’t have just come to being on their own, hence the need to reverence a Supreme Being (Olódùmarè). You know the Supreme Being provides its existence through nature like water, fire, wind… which represent each Òrìṣà. It is this belief that helped maintain our ecosystem.
Something I’ve always wondered about, what’s the difference between Ọbàtálá and Ọrúnmìlà?
Ọ̀rúnmìlà is different from Ọbàtálá in terms of their functions but they are both Òrìṣàs. Ọ̀rúnmìlà is also known as Ẹlẹ́rìí Ìpín (the witness of human destiny). It is believed that he knows everything about man and can give advice as to any events. Ọ̀rúnmìlà was charged with the function of using his profound wisdom, knowledge and understanding of divination to put the chaotic earth in order. He knows the past, present, future and this is why he is called Akéré f’inú ṣọgbọ́n (the small one with the mind full of wisdom). While Ọbàtálá also known as Òrìṣà Nlá, Osogiyan, Ọbalùfọ̀n, Olúfọ̀n..is the god of creativity, purity, albinism, hunchback, paralysis. He is the eldest Òrìṣà and is held responsible for the creation of earth and of human bodies…
How did you decide which of the deities you would worship? Or has one particularly been in your family?
My Guardian Òrìṣà is Yemọja. The Yorùbá believe that we are all born with a specific destiny that is a purpose in life. And before our soul came to the earth we have made the decision as to what our destiny was to be and in so doing, we choose our birth Odù (one of the Ifá Corpus or the Sixteen Cowries), Guardian Òrìṣà and Guardian Ancestors to help us guide our path of destiny. My Path of Destiny was guided by the means of divination called Ẹ̀rìndílógún (Sixteen Cowries). It revealed my Guardian Òrìṣà, which is Yemọja, did the initiation and all sorts. The Òrìṣà has been guiding me on my Path when I keep to the taboos and weaknesses I was given during the initiation. Although they have been worshipping the Òrìṣà in my family before I was born… Ká sọ pé mo báa nílé ni *blushing*smiles*
o, for people like me, ethnic/native Yorùbá children, whose parents never sought information about our birth Odù, Guardian ancestors, etc, is there a modern way to find it? If so, how? I know that we’re descended from Ogún worshippers and professionals, and it is reflected in our Oríkì. But nothing has been mentioned about a birth Odù.
Yes, there is a modern way to find it, which is through Ifa/Orisa divination. You might be a descendant of Ogun, yet it might not work with your own Personal head/Inner Head. It may be another Orisa. It can never be mentioned, you know the birth Odu is Spiritual… You can get to know your birth Odu during the initiation processes or while the initiation is being held.
How have you coped with being an African spiritual worshipper in a country where Islam and Christianity have taken over the public spaces?
It has not been an easy one, but I thank Olódùmarè and Orí that I have always been the best. lol. Our people have turned away from it because of ignorance also they lack self knowledge. But I do try my best to enlighten them in my own little knowledge that I have in African spirituality. So help me Olódùmarè.
There is something fascinating about the tolerance of specifically Yorùbá religious beliefs for plurality that has allowed them to live in peace with other religions, even though the other religions haven’t given them the same courtesy. What part of the religious worldview of the Yorùbá do you think is responsible for that kind of tolerance of plurality and dissent?
In my own view the Yoruba traditional religion preaches peace and harmony in all forms, in the absence of peace (alaafia), iwure (Prayer) tends to hang. This had in turn made Yoruba Traditional adherents to tolerate foreign beliefs. Before the introduction of other religions, Yorubas lived comfortably with each other, and it was never documented in any of the oral scripture of Yoruba religion that some are non believers….In addition, Ifa have talked about other religions in details..
What misconceptions about Òriṣà worship would you like to enlighten them about if you can?
There is a misconception in Èṣù being a Satan or He is a depiction of evil. Èṣù is not Satan!!! This is a grave misconception of who Èṣù is in the Yorùbá tradition. The Èṣù Láàlú we worship in Yorùbá tradition is totally different to Satan/Shaitan in their Bible or Quran. Èṣù is among 801 Irúnmọlẹ of Olódùmarè whose actions and purpose on earth falls within the jurisdiction of Olódùmarè. Our own Èṣù has never opposed the will of Olódùmarè. He’s the one who bore our wishes up to Olódùmarè. He stand for justice and equity. All his attributes of power, wisdom, knowledge and skills are all given to him by Olódùmarè for the purpose of his mission on earth. He does not have the power or gut to contest the position of Olódùmarè. So, there is no correlation of any form between Satan/Shaitan and Yorùbá’s Èṣù Láàlú.
ow long has it taken you to learn the process of Ọrìṣà priesthood, and what are the challenges?
It has been 20 yrs now that I have been in the learning process of the Òrìṣà Priesthood, and I am still learning. You know Ifá is a body of knowledge that is wide. Being a Priest/Priestess has procedures and traditional rites (initiation, learning of Ẹ̀rìndílógún et al). There are also a lot which are best known to oneself or personal.
Yeah, and speaking of that, let me ask you something else I may have asked you before. How hard is the memorization of the Odù Ifá? Because the survival of the Ifá divination systems has been because of generations of elders passing the knowledge down through words. How good must one’s retention be to be a successful priest or priestess? Can one just write things down rather than just commit them to memory? What role can technology play?
Culture is dynamic and ways of life evolve. Memorization is the first step/key—like learning ABC. But with the invention of technology, this has really assisted the means of learning by literal documentation and even oral recitations that can be seen on YouTube and other links that promotes Ifa divination. Learning through elders, like you’ve said will lay the template on which other learning improvements and advancements will strive. Technology will play the role of catalyst.
Of all the Odù Ifá, which is your favorite and why?
Ọ̀sẹ́ Òtúrá is my favorite Odù Ifá. Because it speaks about women. It says if they are not given honor and respect then they can become angry and have the ability to destroy the world. The Odù Ifá teaches us not to use our eyes to undervalue a woman. *blushing* *smiles*
Do you have mentors in Yorùbá spirituality, and how has the journey been so far?
My father is the main driver of my knowledge in African spirituality. He has really dedicated all his time to feeding me. Also, I wine and dine with the elders like Bàbá Awo Abíọ́dún Agboọlá, Bàbá Solomon Ọ̀ṣundárà, Ìyálórìṣà Ayọ̀délé, Iya Logunede, etc to seek for knowledge in Òrìṣà worship. The Journey have been so so beautiful and fun.
How do you think the interest in African spirituality can be stimulated in the country, and most of the misconceptions reduced?
Firstly I think that most importantly practitioners of the faith have to be shining examples of exemplary character in any area of life they find themselves. This would raise questions and pique people’s interests.
Secondly, as the world is now a global village, the good gospel of the faith must be propagated via publicity, public enlightenment… Example like the walk/movement for Èṣù we did last year December…
Finally question from me: a friend of mine, a devout Christian, wants me to ask you if your belief allows you to date or marry people who do not share your mode of worship.
Of course Yes. My religion accepts all humanity, no discrimination.
Thank you for your time.

Meaning of Hut dreams According to Different Culture s And Spirituality.
Hut Dream Symbol 3
BY STEPHEN KLEIN ON NOV 24, 2013 A TO H DREAM SYMBOLS, DREAM DICTIONARY, SYMBOLS STARTING WITH H
Hut – A hut is one of many “home” dreams, indicating your level of security and comfort in your current life. Dreaming that you live in a hut indicates a deep level of dissatisfaction with your current life, and a feeling that your needs are not being met. Further details about the hut give even further insights into the meaning of this dream.
For instance, if the roof leaks or the walls feel like they might fall down, this shows that you are afraid that your life’s security is quickly crumbling away. On the other hand, if the hut is not your residence but is just a place in your dream, the meaning of this symbol also depends on the circumstances and emotions surrounding the dream symbol.
Note: If you have had a dream related to this dream symbol or would like to add something that is related to this topic please leave comment below. Comments are a great way to interact with others who are dreaming about similar topics.

Hut
Childhood family feelings; basic uncomplicated situation or relationship.
It can link with memories of holidays or a relationships on holiday. It can link with work and how you do it – with quality or slipshod.
There are often a lot of sexual indications in connection with dream huts. Also a hut, especially if it is a native type hut can indicate ones primitive feelings and urges.
In some initiation rites for males, the boys live in huts shaped like a dragon or crocodile. This is a symbol of a young boy’s struggle to become independent of the mother and the power of the unconsciousness. In a similar way a sweat lodge in a heated hut or tent has a similar note of initiation, in which the dreamer changes from one level to another – a boy into a man; a girl into a woman; a woman or man into an elder of the tribe/family.
Example: There was a girl about 17 and she lived in a small hut that was made up of wood and covered in banana leaves (dead). She was living on her own until a boy about 17 as well came to live with her. He was very sexy but the two were not dating or anything. It was like a room mate. Well the girls father that lived a few huts away (the huts were spaced pretty far apart, like 3 acres apart, but it was a small village) the place seemed to have no bad weather anytime or anything; it was sunny all the time and everyone had tanned skin. No one ever got sunburned. Well the father came over and saw the boy and thought that they were having sex but they weren’t. The girl went to her father and explained that he saw things wrong. So they got on better.
Example: I looked and saw it was badly done, and was seeing how to smooth it. But the place I was going to work was across the estate about three hundred yards away, where there were a lot of small huts. Then I was driving away with the thought I was going to start work the next morning.
Example: We walked a bit further and came to a hut beside the road. we laid down behind the hut in some long grass to make love but suddenly I saw a snake and jumped up. It turned out to be only a bicycle pump but by now we were aware of other people nearby and the moment had gone.
Useful Questions and Hints:
What was my relationship with the hut?
Did I face any trials or was it in any way sexual?
Was I in a tribal or primitive environment?

Hut
Association: - Basic needs or old needs, - retreat, - modesty. Question: - Where in my life I am ready to be content?
Psychologically:
In the positive sense: 'Place is also in the smallest hut' - in this sense a symbol for security under modest circumstances - and for a 'sure place' in a menacing situation, a symbol for shelter for (limited) time. In the negative sense: The small house (translates: our body) in whose narrowness the soul can take damage and the unconscious may give the instruction to go out more from itself, not always to bake only small bread rolls, but to act even something, so that one comes out of the instantaneous narrowness. Hut (Kate) can also point out to the fact that one may not be presumptuous, but should be content with the achieved. Also the admonition to more patience can stand behind it. If one lives in a poor hut, one must presumably wait long, until the life situation changes favourably.

Dreams About Houses
What does a dream about a house mean?
House Dream Meaning.
In dream psychology, “houses” are related to our own psyche.
A house represents the temple of the mind a reflection of our mental state. The house is a reminder to look after yourself and that you need to think about the exterior of your life. An empty house means missed opportunities. The upper floors can imply your own mind and brain. The middle floors the chest, the first floor indicates your digestive system and ground floor your legs and feet. Dreams about houses can include many things, it could be a past house, new house, moving house, purchasing a house or even just a house that you have never been in before. There is a question that is often left with you after waking “what does the house mean!” I have experienced dreams of houses throughout my life. I remember when I was about 10 years old I had a dream of a house. About a year later we moved into that house. I must say, as I have got older (in my forties) I rarely now dream of houses I am going to live in. I last had a dream about a house 6 months ago, I dreamed of a detached house by a river with flats in the back garden. Houses and rooms in dreams can appear in many ways and have different meanings.
Dreams about houses are extremely common. The truth is, everyone has a house dream every now and then. In dream lore, the house represents our internal thoughts. Every room is associated with how we are “feeling.” The house dream might range from frightening experience to an inspiring or enlightening dream. This is due to the fact that houses are a part of our everyday life. In fact, we live in rooms most of the time right! I am going to answer the dream symbolism and significance so scroll down.
Dreaming about your old house: We have all had dreams about a childhood house, or a home that you lived in the past. This dream can indicate that you are having feelings of the past. An old house seen in a dream is quite a positive omen it is like a bridge that connects us to a new horizon. There can be fulfillment if the old house was in good shape. This can imply that you will think about actions that you have set yourself.
What’s the dream meaning of a house? As I have already mentioned above, in health the house can represent parts of the body. So take note, of what you could see in the dream and the rooms. To see a house on fire in a dream illustrates something needs repair and points to poor health. To dream of a house denotes dissatisfaction in your “home” life. In older dream lore, this dream indicates a desire to start a new life or change something and represents “you.” To dream that the house is chasing you means that you’re running away from something you’re carrying inside. If the house was flying or floating, it represents your hidden feelings. This dream means you are currently in the process of soul-searching. However, it can mean that you are struggling with feeling enlightened or aware. This dream means that you will have high expectations for yourself, even if everyone else expects nothing from you. A luxurious house can represent your own ambitions and advancement to reach your goals. Watching a house collapse in a dream can indicate not reaching goals. I am going to quickly run over some popular dreams of the house here: A balcony is connected to how people see us. A glass house in a dream can be a reflection that things are going to succeed in the future. To clean a house in a dream implies you wish to clean up your goals. Seeing cleaners cleaning a house represents a future that is bright. A bird in a house in a dream indicates that you are feeling trapped in life. Water or floods inside a house indicates that you are feeling emotional about problems going forward. A dusty house in a dream according to my older dream books indicates you are trying to cover up something important. A water leak in a dream or a burst pipe can suggest that someone will provide some emotional complications going forward. A house that is falling down or “falls” in a dream can indicate that something is not what it seems. Moving house in a dream is a suggestion you will move from one phase to the next. Someone breaking into a house in a dream can indicate that you feel “threatened” in waking life.
What does do dream about a house fire mean? Dreams about a house fire can represent that you are feeling areas of your life not as a sea. It can be quite a worrying dream but it is common to see your house burning down. The flames spiritually connected to protection and purification. If you set your own house on fire it indicates you wish to change. Seeing a house on fire that you do not know in real life suggests that you are content with your life you are suffering from a lack of energy. To be inside your house when it is on fire, in a dream, indicates that there is something that you need to take note of immediately. If firefighters entered the home in a dream it can suggest you are going to be rescued by a hero. If you escape the house fire it can suggest that you are on the road to a better future. The biblical meaning of a house on fire can represent cleansing as well as destruction. If we turn to dream psychology, Sigmund Freud believed that a fire is connected to our thoughts and desires in life, and that you need to review these. The home as I already mentioned is a representation of the "self." So, bringing this together the dream about a house fire can indicate that you need to start a new.
What is the Islamic interpretation of a new house in a dream? Many of you have contacted me about the Islamic meaning of a house dream so I have carried out some research to find out the meaning. The Islamic interpretation of seeing or buying a new house in a dream is associated with abundance and progress. You will experience success on both personal and professional level. Houses in dreams also represent how you see yourself. To get the right interpretation, you must pay attention to details such as the color, the size and the type of house. If you dreamed of the front of a house like a front door or porch, it represents the part you’re showing to the world. It can imply that you are pretending to be something you’re not and people see you as mysterious and calm. However, if you dream of the back of a house, it denotes the secrets and emotions you’re trying to keep to yourself. If the house was brand new in your dream, it also represents some new beginnings and expanding your horizons. To move into a brand new home indicates transformations on a personal level. The new house also reveals your wish to change or upgrade your life.

It can indicate the feeling of “moving” from one situation to another in a symbolic way. The dream could include many aspects of the house. A dream could feature: moving to a new house, moving into a new apartment, packing and moving, moving in with someone or even moving to a new city. The dream of “moving” does indicate a change. Changing one's way of thinking and the obstacles we find when going through life. Often, I have come across moving dreams like this that are related to changes in relationships with a partner. This can indicate either an argument or your subconscious telling you how to “deal with fears” in life.

If you are building a new house or someone else is building a home for you in your dream, it implies that you need to work on aspects of your personality and improve your attitude. Sometimes, seeing a construction site can indicate that you need people to help you improve life and upgrade your career. I like to say: a little help never hurt anyone. Often, these dreams appear when we need relaxation to cope with the emotional chaos.
Alternatively, such a dream represents your transformation from someone carefree into a matured, responsible person. The construction of a new house in your dream denotes the transitional phases you’re going through. Maybe you are becoming more aware of your emotions?

If you had a dream that features the color pink means you’re trying to transform your attitude into a more pleasant one. In other words, you’re trying to become a better person for you and the people you love. This dream also foretells benefiting from your past actions. If you dreamed of a pink house, your dream has a totally different meaning. As you know, the house in dreams reveals how you see yourself.

I have had many dreams about the bedroom, seeing someone in your bed can indicate that you need to feel comfort towards other. To be in someone elses bedroom in a dream also reveals how you feel about relationships. If you dream of yourself alone, it means you're not ready for a serious relationship, even if you might be a part of one already. Married people who dream of being alone in their bedroom often miss their privacy and freedom. But if you're single and dream of being alone in the bedroom, it means you miss having someone around.

DISCOVER A DREAM SYMBOL: The House
AuthorHollye Hurst, Ph.D.
How to explore a dream symbol? Let’s start with a common dream image – a house. A house in a dream may be a grand castle or a simple hut. The dream house can appear as a spacious urban loft, a cozy country cottage or an intriguing igloo. A house in a dream may be totally unfamiliar to you or one as easy to recognize as your childhood home or grandmother’s house. The setting of the dream is very important. Any storyteller of literature or film knows the importance of setting and a house appearing in a dream is an important part of its setting.
When pondering the meaning of a dream image you can begin by reflecting upon your actual life experience. In the case of a house, contemplate your actual experience of home – isn’t it an extension of you? In this sense the house in a dream can reflect your current state of being both psychologically and physically. A house is your very own personal and intimate space. It is your inside, private and personal space that is separate from the outside, public space. It is a protected space that reflects who you currently are. This reflection on both the universal nature of a dream image and on your personal experience reveals the meaning of the symbol in your dream.
To get down to the basics, it can be helpful for the dreamer to imagine they’re describing what the dream image is to an individual who is from another planet and who has no familiarity with life on earth. This technique is useful because it helps break through preconceived notions about dream symbols, particularly those we would consider familiar, like a house. A dreamer may associate a house with a place of security, comfort, protection, familiarity or belonging. But whatever words the dreamer chooses, in Dream Discovery™ the dreamer’s own words reveal the meaning of the dream image for them.
If a dreamer explored an unfamiliar house in their dream it may indicate they are in a time ripe for new possibilities they have yet to explore in waking life. In this case the dream is encouraging the dreamer to be open to new life experiences that their conscious mind might dismiss.
A house is a complex and personal dream symbol. The different areas of a house in a dream may represent different realms of the dreamer’s psychological world. Unfamiliar rooms may indicate there are unexplored areas within, new internal potentials to experience. If the dreamer did not explore a room or area due to anxiety while dreaming, they can explore that space by re-imagining themselves there. At My Dream Life we call this Dream Re-Living™ because it brings the dream to life in the present moment. Another option is to use the dream incubation method on subsequent nights to Re-Live the dream again while sleeping and explore that space (as described in the Dream Life Blog “Creative Dream Problem Solving”).
Here at My Dream Life we support the dreamer in exploring options, even anxiety producing ones, rather than avoiding them since the same fears will likely return in another dream and may be limiting the dreamer in daily life. Dreamers can have confidence in exploring the unknown in a dream since their psyche is leading them there to experience something yet revealed, resolved or realized – a new chapter in life.
As a reflection of who you are, a house in a dream that is familiar to you can be a marker of time. It is fairly common to dream of returning to a house you knew in childhood. A dream of a house from the past may reflect a wish to return to a time of childhood openness. However a familiar house can also signify a recurrence in the dreamer’s life of concerns or issues from a past era and it can be helpful to consciously make that association.
For example, one dreamer had several dreams in the setting of her childhood home from ages 11-16. When engaged in dream discovery she remembered that era in her life as clearly marked by her parent’s divorce. In her current waking life she was
dream discovery she remembered that era in her life as clearly marked by her parent’s divorce. In her current waking life she was once again experiencing similar feelings of insecurity in her relationships and had been surprised by some of her behavior. The dream clearly communicated that the childhood experience of her parent’s divorce was being stimulated by her current situation. The dreamer’s waking mind did not have this insight. It needed the help of her dreaming mind. Understanding that her current behavior was linked to a past experience gave this dreamer enough perspective to feel more free in the situation since she could now make choices more consciously. And, as is often the case, the dream gave the dreamer more guidance for being successful in her situation.
Here are some questions to guide dreamers in continuing to discover the meaning of a house in a dream – similar questions can be used for other dream symbols
How does it feel to experience this particular house? It should be emphasized that the dreamer’s own words reveal the meaning of the experience for them. Does the house feel inviting? Interesting? Foreboding? Sad? Briefly describe the personality of this house. Imagine the house had a voice to express itself – what would it say?
What are your personal associations about this house? Does it seem familiar? Has the dreamer ever experienced a similar environment? If the house is familiar, explore any associations to this particular house and the time period the dreamer recalls when they think about this house.
Is the space small or large? How does the dreamer experience the smallness or spaciousness? Does it feel confining or cozy? Overwhelming or welcoming with possibility?
What is the lighting like? How does it feel? Does it provoke a mood? What are the colors? What feelings do the colors invite?
Is the house new and modern? Or is it old? Does it seem to need repairs?
Cliff House, San Francisco, 1894
What is unique or interesting about this particular house? Since dream symbols can be viewed as reflecting an aspect of the dreamer is there anything about this house that seems like the dreamer’s personality or current circumstances? Is there anything about it the dreamer wishes they experienced more in waking life? In the case of a house image an example might be a feeling of spaciousness or security in life. If the dreamer gave the house a voice, what might this dream house have to say?
The dreamer’s own experience and insight reveals the meaning of the dream for them.
In a nutshell, what is happening in or around this house? Does the situation seem to reflect current concerns, challenges, dilemmas or perhaps desires in the dreamer’s waking life? In the dream, who lives in the house? How does the dreamer feel about the inhabitants? Are they familiar? What are the contents of this house? Do any objects seem significant? Familiar?
Is the house on a single floor or are there various levels? What is the setting, is it urban or rural? Is it located in an upscale enclave or a destitute hinterland? Is it on a dead end street or in the middle of a freeway? Surrounded by water? Perched on a perilous cliff? Anything is possible in a dream!
The different areas of a house in a dream may represent different realms of the dreamer’s psychological world. If the dream activity takes place in a particular part of the house is it the kitchen, attic, bedroom or bathroom? Different rooms suggest different activities and meaning. For example, the attic and the basement are typically where things from the past are stored.
If the dream activity takes place in the kitchen what does the dreamer associate with a kitchen? To get down to the basics, how would they imagine describing a kitchen to someone from another planet? Generally, a kitchen is a place of change and transformation. The raw becomes the cooked and provides nourishment. The kitchen is also involved with the preservation of health. What are the specifics of this particular kitchen in the dream?
The bathroom is a also a place associated with the preservation of health through activities related to cleanness, release and elimination. It is a very private space and can also be associated with feelings of shame. Does the dreamer have more specific associations? The bedroom is the other very private space and one we associate with rest, sex and surrender to sleep (and dreams!).
Conversely the porch, portico or gateway is a threshold or place of transition between the outer, public world and the inner, private life. This is the space where both guests and strangers may first appear and be invited in or may intrude into our private space.
As a reflection of the dreamer’s state of being, the house in a dream can reflect not only the dreamer’s current psychological state but also their physical well-being. If the house is in need of repair or is otherwise in disarray, the dreamer might consider getting a medical check especially if they have been ignoring what they think is an insignificant symptom.
If the house has missing or broken windows, the dreamer’s associations to windows can offer insight. Does the dreamer describe windows as keeping warmth inside or as a protection from the elements? Or do they focus on windows as a place of transparency where others can view the dreamer’s inner dwelling space and the dreamer can keep abreast of what lies beyond their inner sanctum? Among other things, missing or broken windows can suggest personal boundaries in relationships may be broken and need attention.
Finally, in Dream Discovery™ the dreamer would ask how are the specifics of this dream image relevant to my life experience right now? This is always an important question since, even though dreams can sometimes refer to previous times, they tend to reveal something we may not be paying attention to now or need to sort out in our current life.
Discovering Other Dream Symbols
Dreamers can use the questions offered here as a reference for beginning to explore other dream symbols. You might first try it with another common dream symbol such as a vehicle that can express how you’re experiencing your current capacity for navigating through life. Dreamers gain fluency in symbolic language by contemplating the various meanings for dream symbols and considering the parallels between these associations and what is happening in daily life.
Keeping a dream journal offers the opportunity to explore dream images over time. The Dream Discovery Workbook is a guided dream journal produced by My Dream Life and available here. Participation in a dream group supports dreamers in learning the language of symbols and reflecting upon the multiple levels of meaning of dream images. You’re most welcome to JOIN US at My Dream Life in a Dream Circle.
A dream dictionary cannot reveal the depth of your dream experience. Dream dictionaries that give a specific meaning for a dream symbol are helpful only as a starting point for becoming familiar with symbolic language.
Some people interested in dreams theorize that there are typical meanings associated with symbols that persist across diverse cultures and times and these can be cataloged for general reference in a dream dictionary. There is an element of truth in this however the personal feelings and associations of the dreamer reveal much more about the dream’s specific meaning and message for them than a dream dictionary ever will. For example, a tiger in a dream can mean one thing to someone whose favorite childhood toy was a stuffed tiger and something quite different to a person who goes on safari. As mythologist Joseph Campbell cautioned, “Don’t lose the message in the symbol. When the symbol is considered a fact, you’ve mistaken the message.”
It is important to remember that the dreamer’s own experience and insight reveals the meaning of their dream symbol that is personal to them. At My Dream Life the Dream Discovery philosophy holds that a single dream image can have multiple meanings for an individual and those meanings can evolve over time as the person continues to reflect upon the image. An extraordinary depth of self-awareness and wisdom can be inspired from discovery of your dreams.
Dream symbols are like multi-faceted diamonds. When we appreciate a dream symbol from different points of view, the light of consciousness illuminates each facet in all its uniqueness revealing multiple meanings for all dreamers.
Part of the value of a dream group is that the wisdom of your dream will speak to everyone in the group and other dreamers’ responses will enrich your own experience of your dream.
My Dream Life Dream Circles offer fun and accessible opportunities to learn about dreams through live interactive experiences with the synergy and support of a small group of dreamers like yourself and a professional mentor.

The Meaning of Houses In Dreams
Houses in dreams are the symbolic representation of the dreamer’s sense of self. No matter what other imagery or circumstances may present themselves in a dream, a house should be considered an unconscious expression of your sense of personal identity. This also applies to any home-like dwelling, such as an apartment, hotel room, trailer, grass hut or any of the possibilities of “home” that exist in the imagination.
The perspective or view of the house takes on specific meaning. The front of a house connects to the persona, the part of you that you show the world. The back is what is private or hidden. What you discover on the inside reflects various, compartmentalized aspects of yourself. Side views or alternate angles may connect to presenting yourself in the world in a limited, partial or inaccurate fashion.
The size, style, condition and reflection of abundance levels will play a key role in interpreting this symbol in a dream. You will need to consider both the feelings evoked by the house in the dream itself, as well as what comes up for you when comparing it to your actual, waking-life home. Whatever shades of meaning you glean from your dream must be interpreted as reflecting an unconscious expression of self.
A mansion on a grand scale may indicate a sense of opening yourself up to greater levels of abundance. This could also be revealing a level of inappropriate grandiosity, depending on your current levels of esteem. Conversely, a moment in life that feels constraining and steeped in lack might evoke a dream image of a house that is more hovel than home. Yet, this same image could be a symbolic representation of deeper levels of humility emerging within you.
A new house might mean a new sense of self is on the horizon, or needs to be. An older, dilapidated model reflects feelings in sync with such a visual image. Adding an extension indicates such an expansion may be occurring on a personal level. A house on fire is expressing that powerful levels of transformation are afoot. Whatever the Dreaming Lens is offering you about a house should be incorporated into an interpretation of your sense of self at the time of the dream.
If you dream of a specific home from an earlier time in your life, you are looking at the person you are today as a direct result of what was going on back then. This can refer to occurrences in the environment associated with the home and the people in it, as well as developmental issues based on your age at the time, which brings us to our next concept.

Edit
This article is about a type of spirit. For other uses of Orisha, see Orisha (disambiguation).
Orisha (spelled òrìṣà in the Yoruba language, and orichá or orixá in Latin America) are spirits sent by (Olodumare, Olorun, Olofi) in Yoruba religion.[1] to guide creation and particularly humanity on how to live and succeed on Ayé (Earth).Most Òrìṣà are said to have previously existed in the spirit world (òrun) as Irumole and incarnate as human beings here on Earth (ayé). Others are said to be humans who are recognized as deities upon their deaths due to extraordinary feats.[2]
Many Òrìṣà have found their way to most of the New World as a result of the Atlantic slave trade and are now expressed in practices as varied as Santería, Candomblé, Trinidad Orisha, Umbanda, and Oyotunji, among others. The concept of orisha is similar to those of deities in the traditional religions of the Bini people of Edo State in southern Nigeria, the Ewe people of Benin, Ghana, and Togo, and the Fon people of Benin.[2][3]
Number Edit
Yoruba tradition often says that there are 400 + 1 Òrìṣà, which is associated with a sacred number. Other sources suggest that the number is "as many as you can think of, plus one more – an innumerable number." Different oral traditions refer to 400, 700, or 1,440 orisha.[4][5][1]
Beliefs Edit
Practitioners traditionally believe that daily life depends on proper alignment and knowledge of one's ori. Ori literally means the head, but in spiritual matters, it is taken to mean a portion of the soul that determines personal destiny.[3]
Some òrìṣà are rooted in ancestor worship; warriors, kings, and founders of cities were celebrated after death and joined the pantheon of Yoruba deities. The ancestors did not die, but were seen to have "disappeared" and become òrìṣà. Some orishas based on historical figures are confined to worship in their families or towns of origin; others are venerated across wider geographic areas.[3]
Ashe Edit
Ashe is the life-force that runs through all things, living and inanimate. It is described as the power to make things happen. It is an affirmation that is used in greetings and prayers, as well as a concept of spiritual growth. Orìṣà devotees strive to obtain Ashe through iwa-pele, gentle and good character, and in turn they experience alignment with the ori, what others might call inner peace and satisfaction with life. Ashe is divine energy that comes from Olodumare, the creator deity, and is manifested through Olorun, who rules the heavens and is associated with the sun. Without the sun, no life could exist, just as life cannot exist without some degree of ashe. Ashe is sometimes associated with Eshu, the messenger òrìṣà.[6] For practitioners, ashe represents a link to the eternal presence of the supreme deity, the orishas, and the ancestors.[7]
The concept is regularly referenced in Brazilian capoeira. Axé in this context is used as a greeting or farewell, in songs and as a form of praise. Saying that someone "has axé" in capoeira is complimenting their energy, fighting spirit, and attitude.[1]
Pantheon Edit
The òrìṣà are grouped as those represented by the color white, who are characterized as tutu "cool, calm, gentle, and temperate"; and those represented by the colors red or black, who are characterized as gbigbona "harsh, aggressive, demanding, and quick tempered". As humans do, orisha may have a preferred color, food, or object. The traits of the orisha are documented through oral tradition.[5]

Edit
Nana Buluku, also known as Nana Buruku, Nana Buku or Nanan-bouclou, is the female Supreme Being in the West African traditional religion of the Fon people (Benin, Dahomey) and the Ewe people (Togo).[1][2][3] She is the most influential deity in West African theology, one shared by many ethnic groups other than the Fon people, albeit with variations. For example, she is called the Nana Bukuu among the Yoruba people and the Olisabuluwa among Igbo people but described differently, with some actively worshipping her, while some do not worship her and worship the gods originating from her.[1][4]

Mawu and Lisa
In Dahomey mythology, Nana Buluku is the mother Supreme Creator who gave birth to the moon spirit Mawu, the sun spirit Lisa and all of the Universe. After giving birth to these, she retired and left the matters of the world to Mawu-Lisa, according to the Fon mythology. She is the primary creator, Mawu-Lisa the secondary creator and the theology based on these is called Vodun, Voodoo or Vodoun.[5]
Africa Edit
The Vodoun religion of the Fon people has four overlapping elements: public gods, personal or private gods, ancestral spirits, and magic or charms.[5] In this traditional religion of West Africa, creation starts with a female Supreme Being called Nana Buluku, who gave birth to the Mawu, Lisa and created the universe.[5] After giving birth, the mother Supreme retired, and left everything to Mawu-Lisa (Moon-Sun, female-male) deities, spirits and inert universe. Mawu-Lisa created numerous minor imperfect deities. In Fon belief, the feminine deity Mawu had to work with trickster Legba and the snake Aido Hwedo to create living beings, a method of creation that imbued the good, the bad and a destiny for every creature including human beings. Only by appeasing lesser deities and Legba, in Fon theology, can one change that destiny. This appeasing requires rituals and offerings to the lesser gods and ancestral spirits, who are believed to have ability to do favors to human beings.[5][6][7]
South America and Caribbean Edit
As millions of West Africans were captured and enslaved during the colonial era, then shipped across the Atlantic to work on sugarcane, cotton and tobacco plantations, they brought with them their religious ideas, including those about Nana Buluku. She is celebrated as Nanã in Candomblé Jejé and Tambor de Mina and as Nana Burukú in Candomblé Ketu, where she is pictured as a very old woman, older than creation itself. She is found in French, Dutch and British West Indies in particular, such as among the African-heritage communities of French Guiana, Suriname, Guyana, Brazil, Trinidad, Martinique, Haiti and other Caribbean islands.[8][9]

Vodun (meaning spirit in the Fon and Ewe languages, pronounced [vodṹ] with a nasal high-tone u; also spelled Vodon, Vodoun, Vodou, Voudou, Voodoo, etc.) is practiced by the Fon people of Benin, and southern and central Togo; as well in Ghana, and Nigeria.
It is distinct from the various traditional African religions in the interiors of these countries and is the main source of religions with similar names found among the African diaspora in the Americas, such as Haitian Vodou; Dominican Vudú; Cuban Vodú; Brazilian Vodum (candomblé jeje and tambor de mina); Puerto Rican Vudú (Sanse); and Louisiana Voodoo.
Theology and practice Edit
A vodoun market in Lomé, Togo, 2008.
Vodun cosmology centers around the vodun spirits and other elements of divine essence that govern the Earth, a hierarchy that range in power from major deities governing the forces of nature and human society to the spirits of individual streams, trees, and rocks, as well as dozens of ethnic vodun, defenders of a certain clan, tribe, or nation. The vodun are the center of religious life. Perceived similarities with Roman Catholic doctrines such as the intercession of saints and angels allowed Vodun to appear compatible with Catholicism, and helped produce syncretic religions such as Haitian Vodou. Adherents also emphasize ancestor worship and hold that the spirits of the dead live side by side with the world of the living, each family of spirits having its own female priesthood, sometimes hereditary when it's from mother to blood daughter.
Patterns of worship follow various dialects, spirits, practices, songs, and rituals. The divine Creator, called variously Mawu or Mahu, is a female being. She is an elder woman, and usually a mother who is gentle and forgiving. She is also seen as the god who owns all other gods and even if there is no temple made in her name, the people continue to pray to her, especially in times of distress. In one tradition, she bore seven children. Sakpata: Vodun of the Earth, Xêvioso (or Xêbioso): Vodun of Thunder, also associated with Divine Justice[1], Agbe: Vodun of the Sea, Gû: Vodun of Iron and War, Agê: Vodun of Agriculture and Forests, Jo: Vodun of Air, and Lêgba: Vodun of the Unpredictable.[2]
The Creator embodies a dual cosmogonic principle of which Mawu the moon and Lisa the sun are respectively the female and male aspects, often portrayed as the twin children of the Creator.[3] Lisa is the sun god who brings the day and the heat, and also strength and energy. Mawu, the moon goddess, provides the cool of the night, peace, fertility, and rain. To give this in a summed aspect, a proverb says ‘When Lisa punishes Mawu forgives.[4]
Legba is often represented as a phallus or as a man with a prominent phallus. Known as the youngest son of Mawu, he is the chief of all Vodun divinities[5]; in his Diasporic portrayal, Legba is believed to be a very old man who walks on crutches.[6] Being old he is seen as wise, but when seen as a child he is one who is rebellious. It is only through contact with Legba that it becomes possible to contact the other gods, for he is the guardian at the door of the spirits.[7] Dan, who is Mawu's androgynous son, is represented as a rainbow serpent, and was to remain with her and act as a go-between with her other creations. As the mediator between the spirits and the living, Dan maintains balance, order, peace and communication.
Other popular Lwa, or spiritual entities include Azaka who rules over agriculture, Erzuli has domain over love, and Ogoun who is in charge of war, defense and who stands on guard.[8]
All creation is considered divine and therefore contains the power of the divine. This is how medicines such as herbal remedies are understood, and explains the ubiquitous use of mundane objects in religious ritual. Vodun talismans, called "fetishes", are objects such as statues or dried animal or human parts that are sold for their healing and spiritually rejuvenating properties. Specifically, they are objects inhabited by spirits. The entities that inhabit a fetish are able to perform different tasks according to their stage of development. Fetish objects are often combined together in the construction of "shrines", used to call forth specific vodun and their associated powers.[9]
Priestess
Priestess Edit
The Queen Mother is the first daughter of a matriarchal lineage of a family collective. She holds the right to lead the ceremonies incumbent to the clan: marriages, baptisms and funerals. She is one of the most important members of community. She will lead the women of a village when her family collective is the ruling one. They take part in the organisation and the running of markets and are also responsible for their upkeep is vitally important because marketplaces are the focal points for gatherings and social centres in their communities. In the past when the men of the villages would go to war, the Queen Mothers would lead prayer ceremonies in which all the women attended every morning to ensure the safe return of their menfolk.
The high priestess is the woman chosen by the oracle to care for the convent. Priestesses, like priests, receive a calling from an oracle, which may come at any moment during their lives. They will then join their clan's convent to pursue spiritual instruction. It is also an oracle that will designate the future high priest and high priestess among the new recruits, establishing an order of succession within the convent. Only blood relatives were allowed in the family convent; strangers are forbidden. In modern days, however, some family members to enter what is described as the first circle of worship. Strangers are allowed to worship only the spirits of the standard pantheon.
Demographics Edit
About 17% of the population of Benin, some 1.6 million people, follow Vodun. (This does not count other traditional religions in Benin.) In addition, many of the 41.5% of the population that refer to themselves as "Christian" practice a syncretized religion, not dissimilar from Haitian Vodou or Brazilian Candomblé; indeed, many of them are descended from freed Brazilian slaves who settled on the coast near Ouidah.[10]
In Togo, about half the population practices indigenous religions, of which Vodun is by far the largest, with some 2.5 million followers; there may be another million Vodunists among the Ewe of Ghana, as a 13% of the total Ghana population of 20 million are Ewe and 38% of Ghanaians practise traditional religion. According to census data, about 14 million people practise traditional religion in Nigeria, most of whom are Yoruba practising Ifá, but no specific breakdown is available.[10]
European colonialism, followed by some of the totalitarian regimes in West Africa, have tried to suppress Vodun as well as other traditional religions.[11] However, because the vodun deities are born to each clan, tribe, and nation, and their clergy are central to maintaining the moral, social and political order and ancestral foundation of its village, these efforts have not been successful. Recently there have been moves to restore the place of Vodun in national society, such as an annual International Vodun Conference held in the city of Ouidah in Benin that has been held since 1991.[12]

Edit
The Dahomean religion was practiced by the Fon people of the Dahomey Kingdom. The kingdom existed until 1898 in what is now the country of Benin. People taken from Dahomey to the Caribbean used elements of the religion to form Vodou and other religions of the Afro-Caribbean diaspora.[1][2]
Mawu and Lisa Edit
Lisa (male) and Mawu (female), married twin siblings of Nana Buluku, are the creator spirits, occasionally combined as Mawu-Lisa, an androgynous spirit. Mawu-Lisa created the world and made it orderly, then made plants, animals, and humans; the entire process took four days.
The first day, Mawu-Lisa created the world and humanity;
The second day the earth was made suitable for human life;
On the third day, humans were given intellect, language, and the senses;
Finally, on the fourth day, mankind received the gift of technology.

The Fon people, also called Fon nu, Agadja or Dahomey, are a major African ethnic and linguistic group.[1][2] They are the largest ethnic group in Benin found particularly in its south region; they are also found in southwest Nigeria and Togo. Their total population is estimated to be about 3,500,000 people, and they speak the Fon language, a member of the Gbe languages.[1]

The history of the Fon people is linked to the Dahomey kingdom, a well-organized kingdom by the 17th century but one that shared more ancient roots with the Aja people.[2] The Fon people traditionally were a culture of an oral tradition and had a well-developed polytheistic religious system.[3] They were noted by early 19th-century European traders for their N'Nonmiton practice or Dahomey Amazons – which empowered their women to serve in the military, who decades later fought the French colonial forces in 1890.[4][5]
Most Fon today live in villages and small towns in mud houses with corrugated iron gable roofs. Cities built by the Fon include Abomey, the historical capital city of Dahomey on what was historically referred to by Europeans as the Slave Coast. These cities became major commercial centres for the slave trade. A significant portion of the sugar plantations in the French West Indies, particularly Haiti, Dominican Republic and Trinidad, were populated with slaves that came from the Slave Coast, through the lands of Ewe and Fon people.[6]
Origin Edit
The Gbe language area. Map of the Fon (purple) and other ethnic groups, according to Capo (1998). Since the seventeenth century, the Fon have been concentrated in the Benin region and the southwestern part of Nigeria.
The Fon people, like other neighboring ethnic groups in West Africa, remained an oral tradition society through late medieval era, without ancient historical records. According to these oral histories and legends, the Fon people originated in present-day Tado, a small Aja town now situated near the Togo-Benin border. Their earliest rulers were originally a part of the ruling class in the Aja kingdom of Allada (also called Ardra kingdom).[2][6]
The Aja people had a major dispute, one group broke up and these people came to be the Fon people who migrated to Allada with king Agasu. The sons of king Agasu disputed who should succeed him after his death, and the group split again, this time the Fon people migrated with Agasu's son Dogbari northwards to Abomey where they founded the kingdom of Dahomey sometime about 1620 CE. The Fon people have been settled there since, while the kingdom of Dahomey expanded in southeast Benin by conquering neighboring kingdoms.[2]
The oral history of the Fon further attributes the origins of the Fon people to the intermarrying between this migrating Allada-nu Aja group from the south with the Oyo-nu inhabitants in the (Yoruba) Kingdoms of the plateau. These Yorubas were known as the Igede, which the Ajas called the Gedevi.[7][8] The fusion of the immigrant Aja conquerors and the original Indigenous Yorubas of the Abomey plateau thus created a new culture, that of the Fon.
Although these oral traditional origins has been passed down through the generations, they are not without controversy. The claim to a[clarification needed] origin from within Allada is not recorded in contemporary sources before the late eighteenth century, and is likely a means of legitimating the claim and conquest of Allada by Dahomey in the 1720s. [9] These claims can also be interpreted as a metaphorical expressions of cultural and political influences between kingdoms rather than actual kinship.[10]
History Edit
"Amazon King Apron", Dahomey : the nineteenth century
While references and documented history about the Fon people are scant before the 17th century, there are abundant documents on them from the 17th century, particularly written by European travelers and traders to West African coasts.[11] These memoirs mention Ouidah or Abomey. Among the most circulated texts are those of Archibald Dalzel, a slave trader who in 1793 wrote the legends, history and greedy slave trading practices of the Fon people in a book titled the History of Dahomey.[12] Modern era scholars have questioned the objectivity and accuracy of Dalzel, and to what extent his pioneering book on Fon people was a polemic or dispassionate scholarship.[12]
In the 19th century and early 20th century, as the French presence increased and then the colonial period began in the Benin and nearby regions, more history and novels with references to the Fon people appeared, such as those by Édouard Foà,[13] N. Savariau,[14] Le Herisse and M.J. Herskovits' anthropological study on Fon people published in 1938.[11]
These histories suggest that Fon people's kingdom of Dahomey expanded in early 18th century, particularly during King Agaja's rule through the 1740s, reaching the Atlantic coast from their inland capital of Abomey.[2] During this period, 200 years after Portugal had already settled in the Kongo people lands on the Atlantic coast of Central Africa in the 16th century, there were numerous plantations in the Caribbean and Atlantic coastline of South America, which had already created a booming demand for slaves from the European traders. The expanded territory of the Dahomey kingdom was well positioned to supply this transatlantic trade and the 18th and 19th century history of the Fon people is generally presented within this context.[2][15][16]
Slavery, Bight of Benin Edit
The Fon people did not invent slavery in Africa, nor did they have a monopoly on slavery nor exclusive slave trading activity. The institution of slavery long predates the origins of the Fon people in the Aja kingdom and the formation of the kingdom of Dahomey. The sub-Saharan and the Red Sea region, states Herbert Klein – a professor of history, was already trading between 5,000 and 10,000 African slaves per year between 800 and 1600 CE, with a majority of these slaves being women and children.[17] According to John Donnelly Fage – a professor of history specializing in Africa, a "slave economy was generally established in the Western and Central Sudan by about the fourteenth century at least, and had certainly spread to the coasts around the Senegal and in Lower Guinea by the fifteenth century".[18]

By the 15th century, Songhay Empire rulers to the immediate north of the Fon people, in the Niger River valley, were already using thousands of captured slaves for agriculture.[17] The demand for slave labor to produce sugarcane, cotton, palm oil, tobacco and other goods in the plantations of European colonies around the globe had sharply grown between 1650 and 1850. The Bight of Benin was already shipping slaves in the late 17th century, before the Fon people expanded their kingdom to gain control of the coast line.[20] The Fon rulers and merchants, whose powers were established on the Atlantic coast between 1700 and 1740, entered this market.[18] The Fon people were divided on how to respond to the slave demand. Some scholars suggest that Fon people and Dahomey rulers expressed intentions to curtail or end slave trading, state
Colonial empire Edit
The French rule removed the king and royals of the Fon people, much like the British and German colonial rule did in neighboring areas, but they all kept the system of plantations.[25] The only difference, so states Patrick Manning – a professor of World History specializing on Africa, for the next seventy years was that the French colonial state, instead of the former king of Fon people, now decided how the surplus (profits) from these plantations were to be spent.[25] The French colonial administrators made some infrastructure improvements to improve the plantation profitability and logistics to serve French colonial interests.[26]
The French rulers targeted slavery in Benin, they outlawed capture of slaves, legally freed numerous slaves, but faced resistance and factional struggles from previous local slave owners running their farms. The slavery that continued included those that was lineage-related, who cohabited within families in the region. The Fon aristocracy adapted to the new conditions, by joining the ranks of administrators in the French rule.[25]
Taxes new to the Dahomey colony's people, which the French called impôt, similar to those already practiced in France, were introduced on all ethnic groups, including the Fon people, by the colonial administrators. Payment of these were regularly resisted or just refused, leading to confrontations, revolts, arrests, prison terms and forced labor.[27] These complaints gelled into an anti-colonial nationalism movement in which the Fon people participated.[27] France agreed to autonomy to Dahomey in 1958, and full independence in 1960.[28]
Religion Edit
Main articles: Dahomey mythology and West African Vodun
The deities of Fon people. Some Fon have converted to Christianity or Islam, while retaining their traditional religious practices called Vodun or "Ifa.".
Some Fon people converted to Christianity or Islam under the influence of missionaries during the colonial era, in Benin and in French West Indies colonies, but many continued their traditional religious practices.[29] While Islam arrived in the Benin area between 11th and 13th centuries, Christianity was adopted by Dahomey ruler Agonglo who came to power in 1789, and his Fon royalty supporters, with missionaries welcomed.[30] According to Steven Mailloux, the missionaries attempted to integrate the old concepts of Fon people on cosmogenesis to be same as Adam-Eve, and their Legba to be Christian Satan, teachings that led to syncretism rather than abandonment.[31]
The Fon people, states Mary Turner, have generally proven to be highly resistant to Christianity and Islam, even when brought over as slaves in a new environment as evident in Afro-Jamaican[32] and other African influenced cultures with ties to the Slave Coast.[33] They have generally refused to accept innovative re-interpretation of Fon mythologies within the Abrahamic mythical framework.[34] The priests of the Fon people, contrary to the expectations of the missionaries, adopted and re-interpreted Abrahamic myths into their own frameworks.[35]
Traditional beliefs Edit
The traditional Fon religion is regionally called Vodoun, Vodzu or Vodu, which is etymologically linked to Vodun – a term that refers to their theological concept of "numerous immortal spirits and deities".[6][36]
The religious practice of the Fon people have four overlapping elements: public gods, personal or private gods, ancestral spirits, and magic or charms.[3] Thus, the Vodoun religion is polytheistic. The Fon people have a concept of a female Supreme Being called Nana Buluku, who gave birth to the Mawu, Lisa and created the universe.[3] After giving birth, the mother Supreme retired, and left everything to Mawu-Lisa (Moon-Sun, female-male) deities, spirits and inert universe. Mawu-Lisa created numerous minor imperfect deities. In Fon belief, the feminine deity Mawu had to work with trickster Legba and the snake Aido Hwedo to create living beings, a method of creation that imbued the good, the bad and a destiny for every creature including human beings. Only by appeasing lesser deities and Legba, in Fon theology, can one change that destiny. This appeasing requires rituals and offerings to the lesser gods and ancestral spirits, who are believed to have ability to do favors to human beings.[3][37][38] A typical traditional home compound of the Fon people has a Dexoxos, or ancestral shrine.[3] The charms are locally called gbo, gris gris, ju ju, or obeah, involve leaves, herbs, smoke and these are offerings to public or personal gods of each family.[3]
In 1864, eight Fon people were executed in Haiti on allegations of murder and cannibalism from Voodoo. Later scholars have questioned the lack of evidence, and whether the Bizoton trial was a product of prejudice.[39][40]
While many Fon identify as Christian, the majority continue to practice Benin's traditional religion Vodun. The Fon have priests and mediums who receive the spirits on the occasion of the great festivals. The cult of the sacred serpents in the temple of Whydah had some importance, but eventually fell into disuse.[41] Practice can involve drumming to induce possession by one of these gods or spirits. Together with other cultural groups from the Fon homeland region such as the Yoruba and Bantu, Fon culture merged with French, Portuguese or Spanish to produce distinct religions (Voodoo, Mami Wata, Candomblé and Santería), dance and musical styles (Arará, Yan Valu).[citation needed]
In the French colonies, such as Saint-Domingue (now Haiti), the Christian missionaries confiscated and burnt the statues and religious objects of the Fon people, but this did not end their practices. They rebuilt their icons again.[42] The Fon people and their government have reversed the colonial attempts to culturally change them. After the end of the colonial era, January 10 has been declared an official annual holiday in Benin dedicated to Vodun gods.[43]
Society and culture Edit

The Fon people are traditionally settled farmers, growing cassava, corn and yams as staples.[1] The men prepare the fields, women tend and harvest the crop. Hunting and fishing are other sources of food, while some members of the Fon society make pottery, weave clothes and produce metal utensils. Among the cash crops, palm oil plantations are common in Fon people's region. The Fon culture is patrilineal and allows polygyny and divorce. A man with multiple wives usually lived in a compound with each wife and her children occupying a separate hut. A collection of compounds formed a village, usually headed by a hereditary chief. In contemporary times, tradition patrilineal clan-based living and associated practices are uncommon.[1]
Funerals and death anniversaries to remember their loved ones are important events, including drumming and dancing as a form of mourning and celebrating their start of life as a spirit by the one who died, can last for days.[45][46]
The Fon culture incorporated culture and shared ideas with ethnic groups that have been their historical neighbors. Many of their practices are found among Yoruba people, Akan people, Ewe people and others.[47]
Dahomey Amazons Edit
A notable part of the Fon people's society was their use of female soldiers in combat roles over some two centuries. Over 3,000 women trained and served as regular warriors to protect the Fon and to expand its reach. The women warrior's brigade was led by a woman.[48][49]
Given the oral tradition of Fon people, when women joined as warriors in Fon society is unclear. The earliest European records, such as those of Jean-Pierre Thibault, suggest that the tradition dates back to the early 18th century or even earlier.[48] These gender roles were foreign to the European travelers, and early fictional stories in European media are considered unreliable by many scholars.[4]

The Aja are an ethnic group of native to south-western Benin and south-eastern Togo.[1] According to oral tradition, the Aja migrated to southern Benin in the 12th or 13th centuries from Tado on the Mono River, and c. 1600, three brothers, Kokpon, Do-Aklin, and Te-Agdanlin, split the ruling of the region then occupied by the Aja amongst themselves: Kokpon took the capital city of Great Ardra, reigning over the Allada kingdom; Do-Aklin founded Abomey, which would become capital of the Kingdom of Dahomey; and Te-Agdanlin founded Little Ardra, also known as Ajatche, later called Porto Novo (literally, "New Port") by Portuguese traders and the current capital city of Benin.

History Edit
Those Aja living in Abomey mingled with the local tribe, thus creating a new people known as the Fon, or "Dahomey" ethnic group. This group is now the largest in Benin. Another source claims the Aja were the rulers of Dahomey (Benin) until 1893, when the French conquered them.[citation needed] Currently, there are approximately 500,000 Ajas in an area straddling the border between Benin and Togo, 50 kilometres (30 miles) long and 30 km (20 mi) wide.
The Aja speak a language known as Aja-Gbe, or simply 'Aja'; only 1-5% are literate in their native tongue. According to one source, voodoo originated with the Aja. There are three dialects: Tàgóbé (in Togo only), Dògóbè (in Benin only), and Hwègbè (in both countries). Many are trilingual, also speaking French and Fongbe, the lingua-franca of southern Benin, while Ewe is spoken as a second language by those Aja living in Togo and Ghana.
Due to severe land shortages in the densely populated Togolese-Beninois border region mentioned above, many Aja have migrated in recent years, seeking arable land for subsistence farming or work in urban centers. There are a significant number of Aja living throughout the coastal region of Benin and Togo, southern Nigeria and Gabon. The urban centers of Cotonou, Lome, Lagos and Libreville all have significant Aja migrant populations.
The Aja, Fon, Ewe, Ga-Adangbe accounted for most of the people carried to the Americas from the Bight of Benin, Togo and Ghana in the transatlantic slave trade prior to the late eighteenth century (when Yoruba people became the more common captives from the region).[2]

In the mid-sixteenth century, Allada (then called Grand Ardra, or Arda) had a population of about 30,000 people.[2]
The original inhabitants of Ardra were ethnic Aja.[3] According to oral tradition, the Aja migrated to southern Benin around the 12th or 13th centuries, coming from Tado, on the Mono River in modern Togo. They established themselves in the area that currently corresponds to southern Benin, until c. 1600, when three brothers – Kokpon, Do-Aklin, and Te-Agdanlin – split the rule of the region amongst themselves: Kokpon took the capital city of Great Ardra, reigning over the Allada kingdom, while his brother Do-Aklin founded Abomey (which would become capital of the Kingdom of Dahomey) and their brother Te-Agdanlin founded Little Ardra, also known as Ajatche, later called Porto Novo (literally, "New Port") by Portuguese traders (which is the current capital city of Benin).

Kingdom of Ardra
Language
Watch
Edit
The Kingdom of Ardra, also known as the Kingdom of Allada, was a coastal West African kingdom in what is now southern Benin. It was named for its capital, the modern Allada, which was also the main city and major port of the realm.
The city and kingdom were supposedly founded by a group of Aja migrants from Tado, a settlement along the Mono River, in the 12th or 13th century.[1][2][3] Its kings "ruled with the consent of the elders of the people".[2] The state reached the peak of its power in the 16th and early 17th centuries, when it was an important source of slaves for the Atlantic trade. By the mid-15th century, the city of Allada had a population of approximately 30,000 people, while the state as a whole had a population of nearly 200,000 people by the 16th century.[3][4]
Name Edit
The name is variously spelled Ardra, Ardrah,[5] Ardres, Hardre, Arda, Arada, and Arrada. It is also sometimes known by its capital's present-day name Allada.
Foundational legend Edit
According to the Fon oral tradition, the Aja settlers that established themselves in the area of present-day Allada arrived in southern Benin around the 12th or 13th centuries coming from Tado, on the Mono River. They established themselves in the area that currently corresponds to southern Benin, until c. 1600, when three brothers — Kokpon, Do-Aklin, and Te-Agdanlin — split the rule of the region amongst themselves: Kokpon took the capital city of Great Ardra, reigning over the Allada Kingdom, while his brother Do-Aklin founded Abomey (which would become capital of the Kingdom of Dahomey) and their brother Te-Agdanlin founded Little Ardra, also known as Ajatche, later called Porto Novo (literally, "New Port") by Portuguese traders (which is the current capital city of Benin).[3]
History Edit
Founded by Aja settlers, the settlement of Allada was in 1600 the most prominent of Aja states, bordering the nearby Oyo Empire, to which the King of Allada was vassal and tributary. Although it was an inland kingdom, Allada maintained control of some sea ports such as Offra, Jaquin and Whydah, thus making Allada important in the growing slave trade business, which also granted Allada the economic means to pay its duties to Oyo. Between 1640 and 1690, about 125,000 slaves were sold from Allada, peaking at about 55,000 during the 1680s alone.[3]
Originally a part of the Allada Kingdom, the city of Abomey went on to become capital of a new kingdom, the Kingdom of Dahomey, which grew strong enough to challenge the nearby Oyo Kingdom, with Dahomey finally vanquishing it and establishing itself as the main Kingdom in the region.
By the late 1690s, the growth of Dahomey had severely restricted Allada's supply of slaves from the north, while simultaneously Whydah surpassed Allada as a primary source of slaves from West Africa. This greatly weakened Allada's comparative power in the region.[3] In 1724, the Kingdom of Dahomey invaded the Kingdom of Allada; in three days, the King of Dahomey's troops slaughtered thousands of Allada's warriors and citizens. More than 8,000 of Allada's population were taken as prisoners and sold into slavery in the New World.[6]
Seaside fort Edit
Slaves used to be captured from enemy tribes and passed on to European slavers bound for the Americas, the route which by repute the father of Toussaint L'Ouverture, the famous general that started the Haitian revolution that lead Jean-Jacques Dessaline to liberate Haiti, had taken.[7][8]
Connection to Toussaint L'Ouverture Edit
According to the Toussaint Louverture Historical Society,[9] Toussaint L'Ouverture, the Haitian revolutionary and first Black governor of Haiti, was the grandson of Gaou Guinou, the heir – either son[10] or brother[9] – of the King of Allada killed during the invasion by the Kingdom of Dahomey in 1724.
To quote from their sources, "Gaou Guinou, Minister of War and younger brother of the King of Allada, rather than succeeding to his father and ascending naturally to the throne, chose then to accompany his vanquished soldiers in exile. He was given a hammock on board of a slave ship"[6][9] that sailed to the island of Hispaniola, where the slaves were sold in Haiti.

Gaou Guinou
Language
Watch
Edit
Gaou Guinou was an African prince and sometime the King of the Allada and the Fon people. He was reportedly captured and enslaved by his brother, Hussar, and his wife, Queen Aitta in 1724.
According to Haitian oral traditions, Gaou Guinou's father, Soso, died in 1724 and left two sons to fight for the succession: Hussar and Gaou Guinou. Hussar fled to Abomey while Gaou Guinou, the younger brother, took power of Great Ardra.[1] Hussar then allied himself with Agaja, the ruler of Dahomey, and returned to battle his brother for the throne thereafter. He was ultimately victorious, and sold Gaou Guinou into slavery after his capture.
The former king is said to have eventually arrived in today's Haiti, where he soon started a family. This family is believed to be the family of Haiti's founding father, Toussaint L'Ouverture. Whilst still constrained to the life of a slave, Guinou nevertheless enjoyed certain privileges within the confines of his owners estate. This included being allocated a portion of land and the labour of five enslaved africans to work it.[2]

Edit
The traditional Jamaican Maroon religion otherwise known as Kumfu[1] was developed by a mixing of West and Central African religious practices in Maroon communities. While the traditional religion of the Maroons was absorbed by Christianity due to conversions in Maroon communities, many old practices continued on. Some have speculated that Jamaican Maroon religion helped the development of Kumina and Convince. The religious Kromanti dance is still practiced today but not always with the full religious connotation as in the past.[2]

History Edit
What can be deduced today about the religions origins points to the idea that it is founded upon Akan religion but syncretized with other African beliefs. This is evident by the many specifically Akan aspects found in the religion.[3]
Very little was written about the original religion of the Jamaican Maroons because of little contact Maroons had with the outside world. What was written at the time by Bryan Edwards (a British slaver and planter) was the practice of Obeah by Maroons. When Anglican Christian churches were established in Maroon towns the traditional religion began to be practiced separately from Christianity and served a different religious purpose. As other non-Anglican churches appeared in Maroon communities they rallied against traditional Maroon beliefs and they became less popular. Today the Kromanti dance still is practiced on occasion even by self identified Christians.[4]
Beliefs Edit
Cosmology Edit
According to the faith a supreme deity named Yankipong rules the cosmos and is generally unconcerned with human life. Below Yankipong exists ancestor spirits called "duppies", "jumbies", or "bigiman". These spirits have hierarchies of their own and can be communicated with by humans so their powers can be used for worldly matters. The matter of spirits and their influence on Earth is considered to be Obeah (although the use of that specific term is controversial and some instead call it "science").[4] It is believed that the omnipotent god "Yankipong" is the Jamaican Maroon's conception of the omnipotent god Nyame from Akan religion.[3] Other Akan deities are reported to have been recognized like Asase Yaa and Epo. The Akan based word "Kumfu" was used for the total spiritual system and understanding of the world.[1]
Practices Edit
See also: Kromanti dance
A priest of the religion is referred to as a "kumfu-man". The word "kumfu" itself has its origins Twi language.[3]
Ceremonies are involved in Jamaican Maroon religion but no worship of the god Yankipong is practiced, unlike in traditional Akan religion.[3] An important ceremony of the religion is the Kromanti dance which involves the direction of a "fete-man" (ritual specialist) and the sacrifice of an animal to the pakit (ancestral spirit). The purpose of the dance is for participants to be possessed by ancestral spirits.[5] The Jamaican Maroon Creole language is used during the Kromanti dance ceremony when addressing people possessed by old Maroon ancestors.[citation needed]

Akan religion comprises the traditional beliefs and religious practices of the Akan people of Ghana and eastern Ivory Coast. Akan religion is referred to as Akom (from the Twi word akom, meaning "prophecy"). Although most Akan people have identified as Christians since the early 20th century, Akan religion remains practiced by some, and is often syncretized with Christianity. The Akan have many subgroups (including the Fanti, Ashanti, the Akuapem, the Wassa, the Abron, the Anyi, and the Baoulé, among others), so the religion varies greatly by region and subgroup.
Similar to other traditional religions of West and Central Africa such as West African Vodun, Yoruba religion, or Odinani, Akan cosmology consists of a senior god who generally does not interact with humans and many gods who assist humans.
Anansi the Spider is a folk hero, who is prominent in Ashanti folktales, where he is depicted as a trickster and wise. In other aspects of Akan spirituality, Anansi is also sometimes considered both a trickster and a deity associated with wisdom, responsible for creating the first inanimate humans, according to the scholar Anthony Ephirim-Donkor.[1]. This is similar to Legba, who is also both a trickster and a deity in West African Vodun.[2]
Deities Edit
Creator God Edit
Followers of Akan religion believe in a supreme god who created the universe. He is distant and does not interact with humans.
The creator god takes on different names depending upon the region of worship, including Nyame, Nyankopon, Brekyirihunuade ("Almighty"), Odomankoma ("infinite inventor"),[3] Ɔbɔadeɛ ("creator") and Anansi Kokuroko ("the great designer" or "the great spider").[4] It is occasionally said that the creator god is a part of a triune deity or triad, which consists of Nyame, Nyankopon and Odomankoma.[5]
The Supreme Creator is an omniscient, omnipotent sky father. His wife is Asase Yaa (also known as Mother Earth), considered second to God.[6] Together they brought forth two children: Bia and Tano.[7]
Abosom Edit
The abosom, the lower deities or spirits, assist humans on earth. These are akin to orishas in Yoruba religion, the vodun in West African Vodun and its derivatives, and the alusi in Odinani. Abosom receive their power from the creator god and are most often connected to the world as it appears in its natural state. Priests serve individual abosom and act as mediators between the abosom and mankind. Many of those who believe in these traditions participate in daily prayer, which includes the pouring of libations as an offering to both the ancestors who are buried under the land and to the spirits who are everywhere.

According to Long, Akan (then referred to as "Coromantee") culture obliterated any other African customs and incoming non-Akan Africans had to submit to the culture of the majority Akan population in Jamaica, much like a foreigner learning migrating to a foreign country. Other than Ananse stories, Akan religion made a huge impact. The Akan pantheon of gods referred to as Abosom in Twi were documented. Enslaved Akan would praise Nyankopong (erroneously written by the British as Accompong, not related to the Maroon leader Accompong [Twi: Akyeampong]); libations would be poured to Asase Yaa (erroneously written as 'Assarci') and Epo the sea god. Bonsam was referred to as the god of evil.[8] Kumfu (from the word Akom the name of the Akan spiritual system) was documented as Myal and originally only found in books, while the term Kumfu is still used by Jamaican Maroons. The priest of Kumfu was called a Kumfu-man.[9]
The Jamaican Maroon spirit-possession language, a creolized form of Akan, is used in religious ceremonies of some Jamaican Maroons.
Myal and Revival Edit
Kumfu evolved into Revival, a syncretic Christian sect. Kumfu followers gravitated to the American Revival of 1800 Seventh Day Adventist movement because it observed Saturday as god's day of rest. This was a shared aboriginal belief of the Akan people as this too was the day that the Akan god, Nyame rested after creating the earth. Jamaicans that were aware of their Ashanti past while wanting to keep hidden, mixed their Kumfu spirituality with the American Adventists to create Jamaican Revival in 1860. Revival has two sects: 60 order(or Zion Revival, the order of the heavens) and 61 order(or Pocomania, the order of the earth). 60 order worships God and spirits of air or the heavens on a Saturday and considers itself to be the more 'clean' sect. 61 order more deals with spirits of the earth. This division of Kumfu clearly shows the dichotomy of Nyame and Asase Yaa's relationship, Nyame representing air and has his 60 order'; Asase Yaa having her 61 order of the earth. Also the Ashanti funerary/war colours: red and black have the same meaning in Revival of vengeance.[10] Other Ashanti elements include the use of swords and rings as means to guard the spirit from spiritual attack. The Asantehene like the Mother Woman of Revival, has special two swords used to protect himself from witchcraft called an Akrafena or soul sword and a Bosomfena or spirit sword [11][12]
Suriname Edit
Winti is an Afro-Surinamese religion which is largely derived from both Akom and Vodun with Vodun gods such as Loco, Ayizu and so on. [13]
Haiti Edit
Haitian Vodou is a syncretic religion that combines Vodun with several other African religions in addition to influences from Catholicism. Here latent influences of Akan beliefs can be seen in the incorporation of Anansi as one of the Lwa worshiped in the Haitian religion. He is often depicted as maintaining the connection between the living and their deceased ancestors.[14]

Function Edit
Was the adinkra people, Gyaman or German symbol representing their version of Creation? The symbol, "Gye Nyame" means, "there is nothing but creation or God". The Akan people usurped the symbols when the Akan Chieftain once imprisoned Nana Adinkra, chief of Gyaman and his Entourage. The akan Chief had his scribes copy the adinkra symbols and then appropriated them into their culture and change the meaning to fit what today means "there is nothing except God" in the Twi language of the Akan. However, the adinkra people who originated the symbol knew nothing of Christianity and invented the symbol independent from its use and meaning today in akan culture. The Gyaman people are also Asanti.
Family Edit
Nyame is the husband of Asase Ya. It means God created the earth and its fertile productive elements.
Nyame and Anansi Edit
A giant python once terrorised the Ashanti people, who then prayed to Nyame. Nyame was tired of a human named Kwaku Anansi, the "Spider Man", boasting about his so-called wit and intelligence, and as a punishment, assigned him with the task of dealing with the python.
Anansi tricked the python into eating a heavy meal and consuming strong wine. When the snake fell unconscious, Anansi summoned the villagers to beat the creature and drive it away. Nyame was pleased with Kwaku’s wit and blessed him with tremendous wisdom and life.

The Abosom in the Americas (Jamaica) Edit
Worship of the Asase Ya goddess was transported via the transatlantic slave trade and was documented to had been acknowledged by enslaved Akan or Coromantee living in Jamaica.[14][15] Jamaican slave owners did not believe in Christianity for the Coromantee and left them to their own beliefs.[14][15] Hence an Ashanti spiritual system was dominant on the plantation.[14][15] According to Jamaican historian and slave owner Edward Long, creole descendants of the Ashanti coupled with other newly arrived Coromantee joined in observation and worship of the Ashanti goddess Asase Yaa (the English people recorded erroneously as 'Assarci').[14][15] They showed their worship by pouring libations and offering up harvested foods.[14][15] Other Ashanti Abosom were also reported to be worshipped.[14][15] This was the only deity spiritual system on the island, as other deities identities in the 18th century was obliterated because of the large population of enslaved Coromantee in Jamaica, according to Edward Long and other historians who observed their slaves.[14][15]

Observance Edit
The Akan annual calendar is divided into nine parts, each lasting approximately six weeks but varying between 40–42 days in a period; the celebration of this period is called the Adae Festival. The Adae Festival has two celebration days: the Akwasidae Festiveal is celebrated on the final Sunday of the period, while the Awukudae Festival is celebrated on a Wednesday within the period. The Friday preceding 10 days to the Akwasidae is called the Fofie (meaning a ritual Friday). As the festival is always held on Sundays (Twi in Kwasidae), its recurrence could be after 40 or 42 days in accordance with the official Calendar of Ashanti. During the last Akwasidae of the year, which coincides with the Adae Kese Festival, special attention is given to make food offerings and donations for helping people.[2] The festivals of Adae are not interchangeable as they were fixed from ancient times.[4]

Practices Edit
The rites on this day relate to honouring personal and community ancestors. A gathering called Akom occurs in which drumming, dancing and singing are a normal celebration to honour Abosom (lesser gods in the Akan tradition) and Nsamanfo (spiritually cultivated ancestors). Food offerings include special items such as eto (mashed African yam), garnished with hard-boiled eggs. Every Ashanti celebrates this festival.[2] For those Ashanti who do not observe the festival of Odwira, the Akwasidae is very important to commemorate their ancestors.[5]
On this day, the Asantehene (King of Ashante) meets his subjects and subordinate chiefs in the courtyard of the Manhyia Palace.[6] The Golden Stool (throne) is displayed at the palace grounds in the presence of the king, and people visit in large numbers, singing and dancing.[7] The king holds his durbar on the occasion of the festival, and people have the liberty to shake hands with him. Before holding the durbar, the king goes in a procession in a palanquin decorated with gold jewelry. He also witnesses a colourful parade, from his palace grounds at Kumasi. Participants of the parade include drum beaters, folk dancers, horn-blowers and singers.[8] As it is festival of paying respect to ancestors, the king visits the Bantama Mausoleum and offers worship not only to his ancestors' chairs (stools), but also to the skeletal remains of his ancestors.[8] It is argued that, the king do not worship the stools and the ancestors, however to pay them homage.

Edit
Adae Kese Festival ("big resting place") is a celebration of the Ashanti. It glorifies the achievements of the Asante kingdom.[1][2] It is also the occasion when the purification ceremony of Odwira is performed at the burial shrines of ancestral spirits. Generally, this coincides with the harvest season of yam and hence the ritual was also called the "Yam custom" by Europeans.[3]

History Edit
The custom of holding this festival came into prominence between 1697 and 1699 when statehood was achieved for the people of Ashante after the war of independence, the Battle of Feyiase, against the Denkyira. The festival was observed subsequently to the establishment of the Golden Stool (throne) in 1700. The festival was a time to consecrate the remains of the dead kings; those remains had been kept in a mausoleum at the sacred burial ground of Bantama, a royal suburb of Kumasi. Adae Kese brought a link and a level of faith and solidarity between the living and the ancestral spirits. In its early times, this festival also had implications of sacrifice, both human and animal. The main festival used to be held first at Hemmaa, close to the king’s palace near the location of the ancestral shrine of the kings. The second and more important part of the festival was performed at Bantama, which also was the last burial ground of the Asante kings, and was known as the “notorious Bantama ritual" as the sacrifices involved were of large proportions. When the festival was announced, by beating of drums, people went into hiding for fear that they may be selected for the human sacrifice. As part of the ritual, sheep sacrifice was also involved. Whether human sacrifice was involved or not is a subject of debate, but the fact is that the African societies considered these rites as a "reunion between the living and the dead."[4]
Traditions Edit
The Adae Kese Festival follows the same rituals as the Adae Festival, however, a difference in the celebration rites is that the chief carries a sheep for sacrifice to the Stool.[5] The purification ceremony of Odwira is celebrated during Adae Kese at the burial shrines of ancestral spirits. Generally, this coincides with the harvest season of yam, and hence the ritual was also called the Yam custom by Europeans.[5] It is celebrated at this season to thank the gods and the ancestors for a good harvest. The season is equally used to outdoor the new yam.
Adae Kese== Edit
Every five years, the Adae Kese Festival is hosted by the paramount ruler of the Asante in the capital city of Kumasi, Asanteman, and lasts for two weeks.[6] As a formal state celebration, it involves several villages and towns, within a traditional area known as Odwira,[2] uniting Ashanti from all walks of life (Odwira means to purify). Asantehene, the titular ruler of Kumasi, holds a colourful durbar of chiefs and their queens on this occasion when they all turn up in full regalia. Dancing to the beats of drums is part of the pageantry. The festival is also the occasion when people pledge their confidence in the present king of the Ashante. Some of the deserving people are given awards of recognition on this occasion. The king also holds a very private celebration within his palace chambers along with the designated members of the royal family and other officials.[1]

Observance Edit
The festival is observed on Wednesday, and its recurrence could be after 40 or 42 days. It is celebrated particularly in the Eastern Region. It is one of the two forms of Adae, the other being Akwasidae, which is celebrated the third Sunday after Awukudae.[3] The observance is an ancestral rite by the chiefs and elders of the Akan clan around Kumasi. The Tuesday which falls 8 days before Awukudae is known as Kwabena; and the Saturday following Awukudae is known as "Memeneda Dapaa". The festival announcement is made by drummers the evening before on "Dapaa" day. After every eight Awukudae Festivals, the "Adae Butu" ritual marks the start of the Odwira festival.[4]
Traditions Edit
Awukudae Festival is marked by Wo tu adae (announcing the day's celebration) drumming on the day preceding it and on Wednesday morning. Atumpan drums and single-air drums perform, but not Fontomfrom drums. In the forenoon, ceremonies are carried on in the Stool-House.[5] The drumming symbolizes the seeking of protection for the guardian ancestral deities to the soul of the ruling king and it unifies the people under his reign.[1] It is believed that Nsamanfoɔ and other ancestors are wandering around to see if this festival is being observed properly. On this occasion, it is also a practice to give donations for charitable causes such as feeding the hungry and helping the sick. On this day, Akamfoɔ people consider travel as dangerous and hence remain at home, as it is an emotional day for them.[6]

They are also venerated by the Edo of southeastern Nigeria; the Ewe of Ghana, Benin, and Togo; and the Fon of Benin (who refer to them as voduns). Although there is much variation in the details of the rituals and mythology of these deities among these West African peoples, the underlying religious concept is essentially the same.

Types Of Orishas
The Nigerian scholar J. Omosade Awolalu divided the orishas into three categories: primordial divinities, deified ancestors, and personified natural forces and phenomena. These categories are not rigid, and in some cases they overlap.
Primordial divinities
In West African religions and in traditions that have been influenced by them, primordial divinities are those that existed long before the creation of the world as it is now known. Some of these orishas are primordial in the sense that they existed before the creation of human beings. They emanated directly from God without any human aid. They are ara orun, people of heaven. They came from heaven, and they still reside there. Other orishas are irunmole, the earth’s first inhabitants that are now sacred beings dwelling on and in the earth.
Deified ancestors
Deified ancestors are people who lived in this world after it was created and had such a profound impact upon it that their descendants have continued to promote their memory. They were kings, culture heroes and heroines, warriors, and founders of cities who had a major influence on the lives of the people and on Yoruba society through their contributions to culture and social life. In the Yoruba tradition these were individuals who were able to establish control over a natural force and make a bond of interdependence with it, attracting its beneficent action toward themselves and their people while sending its destructive aspects onto enemies. To achieve this degree of control and interdependence, the ancestors made offerings and sacrifices. Later these ancestors disappeared—often, according to tradition, in a remarkable manner, such as by sinking into the ground, rising into the heavens on chains, committing suicide and not dying, or turning to stone. Such a disappearance was not true death; rather, it was the occasion of the ancestor’s metamorphosis into an orisha. Several primordial divinities have oral traditions stating that they were once the chiefs or kings of still existing Yoruba towns.
When these ancestors disappeared and became orishas, their children began to sacrifice to them and to continue whatever ceremonies the orishas had performed when they were on earth. This worship was passed on from one generation to the next. In their native areas, people formed groups that worshipped and venerated these orishas and secured a place for their cult group in the religious and social organizations of the towns where they lived. Eventually a local orisha’s cult might spread to other towns and become more widely known. The worship of other deified ancestors, however, remained confined to the towns where it originated, even sometimes restricted to particular families or lineages.
Personified natural forces and phenomena
From the Yoruba point of view, any element of the natural world that has manifold and useful functions for human beings has a spirit dwelling in it. There are many spirits of this kind, but some of them are so preeminent that they supersede all others; they too are orishas. Among them are the earth; rivers, lakes, and lagoons; and mountains, certain trees, and the wind. Worship is directed at the orisha that dwells within the natural phenomenon, often at the site where the natural phenomenon manifests itself.
These specific forces of nature are part of the orisha because the cult of the orishas directs itself toward them. The orishas, however, are only one aspect of these natural forces. An orisha is that part of a natural force that is disciplined and controllable and that can be cultivated by people using ritual means. There is always the other part—the part of the natural force that can be explored but never completely known, the aspect of nature that will always remain wild and escape definition. To the benefit of human beings, the orishas mediate between humanity and these forces of the natural world by putting the tamable aspects of nature under human control while standing between humanity and that part of nature that cannot be tamed, hemmed in, or controlled by human beings.
Orisha worshipperfs see the tamed natural force and the deified ancestor as indissolubly linked. This unity is represented by a witnessing object that acts as the material support of an orisha’s power to command and cause things to happen. A collection of these objects, even if it is not permanent, constitutes an altar where the orisha is present and can be addressed through prayers and offerings. In this context the altar may be referred to as the orisha or as the orisha’s face. Everything that went into forming these witnessing objects—from leaves, earth, metal, pottery, or animal bones to the incantations and sacrifices that praised and coerced the orisha’s many powers to lodge in one place—becomes part of the object’s (and the orisha’s) secret.
Transmission Of Orisha Beliefs Outside Africa
During the 18th and 19th centuries thousands of Yoruba, Bini, Ewe, and Fon people were enslaved, uprooted, and transported to the Americas. In some locations in the Caribbean and South America, they were able to reestablish the worship of the orishas and maintain it during slavery and after its abolition. In the social and cultural environments of the Americas, the orisha concept underwent some subtle but significant changes. Orisha devotion became a profound influence upon the emergence of such new religions as Vodou in Haiti and Santería in Cuba.
Contemporary Practices Of Orisha Devotees
The general idea of the orisha as a deified ancestor whose descendants perpetuate the ancestor’s practices is reflected in the self-identification of the members of an orisha cult group’s priesthood as that orisha’s “children.” This idea also undergirds a practice of secrecy that excludes from some part of an orisha’s ceremonies people who have not been initiated into its priesthood. However, it becomes the responsibility of the orisha’s human descendants to transmit to subsequent generations the objects and secrets through which human beings can interact with the orisha. Because each orisha has particular occupations, places, skills, preferences, diseases, problems, capabilities, and misfortunes with which it is closely associated, devotees—through the orisha’s priesthood—can make appeals to the orisha that is best able to resolve the problem they are experiencing. It is the orishas who are the guardians and explicators of human destiny. Despite the ascendance of Christianity and Islam, many Yoruba and other West Africans still turn to the orishas for help, aid, and advice in the great and small problems of life.

As you walk down the streets of Tanke Okeodo, Ilorin, you would come across toddlers waddling behind their mums dressed in hijabs. They imitate their parents and grow up never deviating from their religion. This is what it means when Yorubas say ó bá a nínú ilé ni. She met the tradition at home. Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ Ẹgbẹ́ladé was born into a family of Òrìsà worshippers. At 5, she already knew the intricacies of Òrìsà practice. As do many 5-year-olds in Christian homes today. However, while her father Baálẹ̀ Olúkúnmi Ẹgbẹ́ladé is a renowned religious leader and priest, her mother is a Christian. This does not affect their relationship in any way and as Omítọ̀nàdé says, they celebrate each other.
Omítọ̀nàdé clamors against the demonization of Yoruba spirituality. In 2015 she spoke at an Ake festival panel, which was where we first met. She reminded us that before Islam and Christianity came to Yoruba land, Òrìsà prevailed. In 2016, she presented a paper at the University of Ibadan titled ‘Roles and Acceptability of Indigenous Religion for National Development’ during the Cultural Day Colloquium. She called on the Government to promote indigenous languages in official spaces and support traditional medicine as it is a viable source of revenue for the country. In a subsequent article titled ‘Drums in African Tradition Religion’, she stressed the importance of music in Òrìsà worship. Just as humans have their favorite genres so do Òrìsàs. Ṣàngó and Yẹmọja prefer the bàtà drums while the agogo bells are unique to Ifá.
Many fail to realize that Òrìsà worship is as valid and as distinct as any other religion that exists. In a bid to explore this, Iyaolorisa and I exchanged messages discussing her faith.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — What does the word ‘Juju’ mean to you?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Juju means bad charm to me. And the word does not exist in Yoruba spirituality.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — Let’s talk about Yoruba Indigenous religion…
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Yoruba religion comprises the traditional, religious and spiritual concepts and practice of the Yoruba people. In Yoruba spirituality, we can’t do without our Ori. Ori is you — the essential divinity in you that struggles to maintain consistency with your chosen destiny on your behalf. Even in the worship of our head guardian Òrìsà, it is Ori that determines the quality of our relationship with Òrìsà. It is because the Irunmole and Òrìsà put their Orí before them, it made them their mission to be accomplished on terrestrial earth. When we give sacrifice to Òrìsà, we are asking the blessing of the Òrìsà on behalf of our Ori.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — Who is the Irunmole?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Irunmole are the messengers of Olodumare. They descended from ikole orun to ile aye. They were those supernatural beings that first visited Ikole Aye (earth) and actually made earth habitable for human beings. The Òrìsà are also messengers of Olodumare. They were born just like men and lived in exemplary ways of Irunmole. They didn’t die on earth but were deified. We have 801 Irunmole. Igba Irúnmolè olùk’òtún. Igba Irúnmolè olùk’òsì. Òkànléní erínwó Irúnmolè tán ń t’òrun bò wá’lé Ayé ( 200 Irunmole at the right-hand side, 200 Irunmole at the left-hand side, 401 Irunmole descended from ikole orun to ile aye). This assertion made it known that 200 Irunmole are always at the right hand and another 200 are at the left hand side of Olodumare while the remaining 401 were the ones that came from ikole orun to ile aye.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — And what is their purpose?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Their purposes are many. They help us support the development of spiritual consciousness. They help us develop of Suuru(patience) and Iwa pele(balanced character). They help us get in tune with the universal energies. They help us know who we truly are and know our divine role here on earth.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — Where does Ifa come in?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Ifa is a system of divination. Ifa is the esoteric word of Olodumare. Literally, Ifa is just like a bible or Quran. It contains the verses of the literary corpus that is known as Odu Ifa. It has 256 corpus. It is the embodiment of the totality of human existence. Ifa is consulted for guidance and assurance. Orunmila is the great interpreter of Ifa.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — Orunmila, the Òrìsà of wisdom and divination?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Yes, but all Òrìsà are for divination. They are channels we used to communicate to Olodumare. Only Orunmila devotees make use of Opele and Ikin Ifa and Olorisa(Orisa devotee) make use of Erindilogun(sixteen cowries) for divination. I am an Òrìsà priestess. My area of specialty is on divinity, divination, initiation, Òrìsà propitiations and so on.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — How did you come to be an Òrìsà priestess?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — One does not just choose to become an Òrìsà priest/priestess. Òrìsà chose me. Being initiated into any Òrìsà may make you a devotee. However, to become a practicing diviner (priest or priestess) takes years and years of diligent study.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — What made Òrìsà choose you? What are the markings of the chosen one?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Divination. That’s all.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — I read about Erindilogun lightly when I was writing our article about cowries. I learned that the positions the cowries land on tell about a person. What do they say? Is it possible to tell a person’s past or future?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — The things they say are personal. And yes, it is possible to tell a person’s past, present, and future. Because we have 3 ways we modify one’s Ori or destiny in Yoruba spirituality.
1. Through either Ifa or Òrìsà divination
2. Through Ifa or Òrìsà propitiations
3. Through Ifa or Òrìsà initiation
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — If I wanted something specific like a child or money, what would I have to do?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — We can’t do anything except we do divination. Only then will the Òrìsà put us through to find the solution. The divination requires consultation fee, person’s birth name, and mother’s name.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — Is there any particular reason for using the mother’s name and not the father’s name?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Though both of them are our progenitors (isese), we came through our mothers. Ifa Odu Ogunda Owonrin states:
Baba eni isese eni
Iya eni isese eni
Isese labo kato bo Orisa
This means: “it is our mothers and our fathers who are our isese. It is isese we pay homage to before paying homage to orisa”. But mother is a deity. Yeye omo l’oloro omo. One’s mother is the architect of one’s fortune.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — What are some of the misconceptions about your religion that you’d like to debunk?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — We are not idol worshippers. I practice Òrìsà spirituality. The word “Òrìsà” doesn’t translate to idol or god. Òrìsà is Òrìsà or deity. Olodumare proves its existence through nature. Each Òrìsà represents nature. Sango is the Òrìsà of thunder and lightning. Osun, Yemoja, Olokun, Òrìsà of waters. Osanyin is the Òrìsà of herbs, leaves and roots and many more. We only have icons not idols of Òrìsà. Icon or implement of Sango is Edun ara (Thunderstone), Ogun is iron or metal, Esu is yangi stone and many more. Nollywood has done more harm than good to Yoruba spirituality. We need to correct the misconception and misinterpretation. They have fixated the negative impression that our people dwell in. However, our people have been brainwashed and whitewashed by colonial mentality. We need to question everything we see. Don’t stop asking questions, only then, would we be enlightened. We need to tell our stories ourselves.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — I totally agree with retelling our stories. Chinua Achebe said that until the lions tell their story, the tale of the hunt would always glorify the hunter. JuJu is committed to taking actions challenging the demonization of African culture, we hope that the stigma and religious intolerance will be a thing of the past in the future we create. How can we, as people can change the perspective of Yoruba spirituality that is currently being peddled?
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Like I said, the main issue is lack of understanding and ignorance. For years, a lot of misinformation and lies have been spread about our traditional practices, and that’s the root of the problem. We need to promote public discourse about Òrìsà spirituality. This should include writing blogs, articles to newspapers, short videos on YouTube, and even symposiums at universities and other learning institutions. The goal is to challenge the general perception through the same media used to spread misinformation. Truly a lot of information about Òrìsà worship is secret knowledge and this allows people to spread lies. This does not mean that we should bring out esoteric knowledge, but just a bit of it and the tenets of the belief should be made accessible to everyone. It took years to spread the negative perception about Òrìsà spirituality, so changing it will not happen immediately but every attempt to change the perception of people with true information goes a long way. The approach has to be systematic. For lack of better words, we have to make it “pop” and attractive. Traditional Indian spirituality is trendy today, but it is not so different from Òrìsà worship. I think the only difference is the way it has been portrayed to the world and that’s what we need to work on.
Mariam Sule-Izuagbe — Thank you for sitting with me to have this talk. Modupe pupo.
Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ — Ko tope. No problem

PREFACE
Taking a good look at our condition in the Diaspora, we as decedents of Africans must reflect on our history. We must ponder on the journey which our forefathers endured. It is because of their desire to survive and overcome against all odds that we are here today. Are we any different than our forefathers? I would like to say that we are not. We have within ourselves all that glorious energy and will to endure the harshest of conditions life may throw our way. We have the power within us to overcome and conquer any and all obstacle because they are within us. There is a tremendous spiritual energy working within the hearts and soul of our people. This energy is stimulating our psyche to the point wherein we can't help but believe there is truly a merciful God in the midst of all of this world
In my opinion, I believe the Yoruba tradition of Ifa-Orisa sits at the top of the pyramid of every practical, theoretical, and traditional practice or study. Again, this is simply my opinion.
I awakened to my spirituality in a very horrible way. I’ve written about this here many times before but it was my spirituality, my awakening, that pushed me to Ifa. As a matter of fact, after my awakening, I was told to go to a church that I did not grow up in: Revival/Zion. While in the revival church, I began to use the wisdom that my sweet Padrino had taught me years before to show the way of studying nature to the Bishops and Pastors of my church. Eventually, same church, or should I say the same Christian God, sent me to Africa… to Ifa.
Now this post is about the spirituality behind Ifa and Orisha as a traditional practice.
In this post, I will try my best to explain what is happening behind what you see.
In Nigeria, Ifa traditional practice is the study and veneration of nature as pure energy. What I mean by “pure energy” is this: Every leaf, every stem, every flower, etc. all have a particular animistic energy that allows it to work for human beings and the earth.
These energies are all of Light.
*Note: No energy that comes up on our Earth Plane is ever dark. They are all Light. When that energy gets ready to play a “negative” role in our lives, that energy now manifests itself as dark. Malevolent beings are seen as dark beings, but they are actually Light beings that take on the “role” of dark when something needs to happen (i.e. car crash, natural disasters, even obeah, etc.) in order for something to change. Darkness is necessary because everything begins with it. Like a pregnancy, it gives way to form, i.e. change, ideas, physical manifestations, “knowing”, what is tangible, what has arrived, etc.
But Let’s Start With The Babalawo
A Babalawo, before becoming independent and working as a Babalawo for the community, must go through extensive training. Within the training, they will learn many things. Not only how to understand the use of the oracles and the verses attached to each odu, but also how to use nature for medicines (spiritually) or for work to aid humankind. Now, the master of the Awo in training also had a master, and so did the master before him and before him etc. So in Ifa, everything is handed down orally.
What is not realized by some is that those old masters are the ones who now sit beside the Awos in their non-physical form and continues to teach in spirit.
A newly trained Awo can cast Ifa, but it also depends on how open his spirit is to receive the information from generations of non-physical, well-trained masters. These non-physical masters will not only teach him while he works or studies, but also while he sleeps.
So some Babalawos will know extensive knowledge about odus without ever having been taught by their physical master. It would be a “knowing” that they develop, and this “knowing” is what is given to them by non-physical teachers.
Everything in life is spiritual, whether you know it or not. Nothing is ever mechanical.
Ifa Traditional Medicines
A leaf burnt to make a medicine instantly becomes a spirit. How? Because there was a spirit attached to this leaf before it was used for this preparation. This is why every tree and every leaf has a name, just like every human being has a name. So, if I wanted John to go to the shop for me, I would call him by his name and send him on errand.
Just like calling John, the Awo has to use incantation to “wake up” the medicine in order for it to now become “alive” and go out to work for the human it will be given to. By “alive” I mean that the medicine has now become a messenger. If you have used the Herb & Prosperity Medicine from the shop this is how that medicine works.
Now, when I send John to the shop, John needs a mode of transportation. When the Awo makes the medicine, it will now use the breeze to carry it through. If the medicine was for prosperity, it will use the breeze to search for avenues to bring prosperity. Because the breeze is an element of nature and a force within itself, it will now become activated by this medicine, and the two work together for the benefit of the human.
How is this knowledge given so that it can be passed along through generations? All of this knowledge is not only passed down through training, but also through non-physicals (a spirit still alive and conscious). The more a non-physical assists the human in evolution and growth is the more that non-physical elevates into Light Continuum.
The spirituality behind tradition is the activation of non-physical beings who must also be propitiated always. Therefore, the reverence and sacrifice to the ancestors and your Ori are important. It is the non-physicals or those from the ancestral world that will lead someone from Iceland or Greenland all the way to tradition without them ever having heard of it before. They, the spirits, are like salt, which without it, the food can never be good. They act as an activation for everything spiritual that needs to be done or learned.

They, the spirits, are like salt, which without it, the food can never be good. They act as an activation for everything spiritual that needs to be done or learned.
What Happens When You Are Initiated
I spoke to someone yesterday who was a part of a particular spiritual house in America. She practices a system similar to that of the Yorubas, although she is not initiated. During our conversation, she informed me that she had done a ceremony to receive Elekes (ìlẹ̀kẹ̀ in Yoruba).
After the reading, I asked her “Who will initiate you?” and after she told me, I wished her the best, but being who I am, I could not end the conversation without sharing some information.
If a person needs to be initiated to Ifa, a trained and competent Babalawo who is the reprensentative of Orunmila on Earth and has the Ase to pass over will be the one to do this type of initiation. If you initiate to an Orisa, the Babalawo will call the custodians of that particular Orisa to assist him. The custodians hold the Ase (power/rights/rituals) to that Orisa, therefore it is they who can pass it over correctly. However, it is compulsory for a Babalawo to be present during an Orisa initiation due to the necessary odu and sacrifices that will be needed.
Neither a Babalawo nor an Olorisa can do an Orisa initiation by himself. Every person involved comes with their own Ase to impart.
Getting initiated to Ifa is a very big protection for many things, which I will explain soon. Getting initiated to an Orisha, on the other hand, is like having your personal guardian angel support your destiny. However, as I said before, Ifa is a guide. So imagine someone directing you: make a right here, don’t go there, go straight, avoid there, etc. This is the role of Ifa. The interesting part is that everything Ifa is guiding you away from or guiding you towards are all things written by you (your spirit). You were literally the author of your own destiny.
Initiation to Ifa is an amazing rights of passage to your spiritual journey, evolution and elevation. However, there are some that initiation is a must for. There can be many reasons for this: a chosen destiny, to save a life (or lives), healing, to collect a great blessing, to stop an ill fate, to rewrite a destiny for the better, for protection, etc.
Before initiation,This does take time but what it does is ground and balances a person spiritually, emotionally, psychologically, physically and then some. For some, the process can be gradual, but then no baby is born and walks out of the hospital.
This is why Ifa initiation is recommended to be done first because Ifa is the guide. It is through Ifa that one will now know not only the Orisa that rules his or her head but also the Orisa(s) that he or she will need to support him or her through their life.
You do not have to be Yoruba to embrace this tradition. Ifa’s children spreads far and wide across the world. It does not matter if you are Christian, Muslim, or something else, if Ifa is in your blood, Ifa will find you.
Getting Ifa is like being handed a book of your own destiny. The title of the book is your Odu and inside of this book are all the things you have written for your life before coming to Earth; both the good and the bad. As the Babalawos read your book and interpret, they see many things: wealth and plenty of children, or famine and poverty. However, because we create our realities, initiation helps you rewrite your destiny. So if famine, poverty, untimely death or illness was in the future, with Ifa’s guidance (i.e. a sacrifice, medicine, taboo, etc.) that unfortunate future can be changed.
Observe the image above which was taken during an Obatala initiation. Everything used during initiations has its specific meaning and symbolism. From the cloth they wear, to the way the cloth is tied, to the markings (a coded language) written upon the head and body, to the movements or sounds made, and propitiations. All of this is done ritualistically in the calling down of the energy (Orisha).
What Energy Has To Do With Initiations
a person may feel their life is unaligned. They may experience many things: obeah, confusion, difficulties, they may feel lost, or drawn to a particular or many roads of spirituality, at times life may just become too hectic. If we were to take an X-RAY of that person’s life, the X-RAY may look something like this:
After initiation, and adhering to taboos and keeping up with sacrifices, the person will now become aligned with their destiny. Therefore, what has been tangled before now gradually begins to untangle, until finally those chaotic lines straighten out. This is when the initiate has become aligned totally with their destiny and the X-RAY now looks like this:
The entire initiation process is a process of transference, shifting and manipulation of energy. I use the image above to show you the hundreds (or thousands) of dots floating around. Those are energies, or spirits.
So the “force” (Orisa) that is called upon you now becomes “apart” of you. In a metaphorical way, it sits atop your head and you and it have become one. As time goes on, you will begin to take on characteristics of that Orisa. This will take time as the Orisa develops overtime within the person. So the older you get, is the more that energy binds itself with you.
We ascribe gender to Orishas only for better understanding of the human due to limitations of the mind. However, Orishas are pure energies and therefore genderless. Shango, for example, is seen and described as masculine because of the harshness of lightening and thunder and the rage within fire. In human form, these are masculine traits. Osun is seen as feminine because the river is seen as soft, sweet, clean and flowing.
When these energies are now placed alongside or within any type of ancestral spirits or statues or ascribed a new personality, that pure energy is no longer pure. If you put a masculine pure energy and change it to a feminine energy, and that feminine energy is not pure but is instead ancestral, then that once masculine energy has lost its purity. So what happens when that new energy is given to someone during initiation? It is like a hybrid and just as that energy has been crossed or tainted, so will now the human become. This, fortunately, is not the case in Africa.
The Yorubas have mastered the art of manipulating energy correctly.
Initiation includes certain sacrificial rights, the feeding/propitiation and invocation of energies and inviting them into the space through acts and symbolic language. It is further advanced through sound such as drumming, singing and dancing. The words, melody, and tune all work to create a passageway for that particular energy or source to come down. In other words, we are calling “spirits/live energies” and calling them into this space. It is to create frequency which will act as a signal to the particular Orisa you are seeking to come.
So this is a part of what I mean by “passing along Ase” because it is the custodians of the Orisa that will know the correct rights and rituals or insignia to bring in the Orisa.
In the world of Occult, you can not call a spirit unless you know his signature, otherwise everything can turn upside down for that person.
Each initiate, including the new initiate, carries the Ase of that Orisa. That Ase stays within that individual and grows more and more and more as he develops further into his spirituality. So, the custodian passing along his Ase is him or her passing along that energy. The longer one has been initiated or has been a custodian of that Orisa is the more powerful and potent his or her Ase becomes.
There are so many things to know in understanding Ifa-Orisha from a metaphysical point of view. There is much to learn because most of us on the other side of the world were not born within the tradition.
It was a journey for me to get to Ifa (the struggles I had in my life), but I have arrived, and at my best. I have brought my children along, and I believe this is the best thing I have ever done for them.

Description
The Yoruba of southwestern Nigeria are exceptional for the copresence among them of three religious traditions: Islam, Christianity, and the indigenous orisa religion. In this comparative study, at once historical and anthropological, Peel explores the intertwined character of the three religions and the dense imbrication of religion in all aspects of Yoruba history up to the present. For over 400 years, the Yoruba have straddled two geocultural spheres: one reaching north over the Sahara to the world of Islam, the other linking them to the Euro-American world via the Atlantic. These two external spheres were the source of contrasting cultural influences, notably those emanating from the world religions. However, the Yoruba not only imported Islam and Christianity but also exported their own orisa religion to the New World. Before the voluntary modern diaspora that has brought many Yoruba to Europe and the Americas, tens of thousands were sold as slaves in the New World, bringing with them the worship of the orisa.
Peel offers deep insight into important contemporary themes such as religious conversion, new religious movements, relations between world religions, the conditions of religious violence, the transnational flows of contemporary religion, and the interplay between tradition and the demands of an ever-changing present. In the process, he makes a major theoretical contribution to the anthropology of world religions.

How man makes God in West Africa: Yoruba attitudes towards the Orisa
Karin Barber
DOI: https://doi.org/10.2307/1159606
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 December 2011
Extract
The idea that gods are made by men, not men by gods, is a sociological truism. It belongs very obviously to a detached and critical tradition of thought incompatible with faith in those gods. But Yoruba traditional religion contains built into it a very similar notion, and here, far from indicating scepticism or decline of belief, it seems to be a central impulse to devotion. The òrìṣà (‘gods’) are, according to Yoruba traditional thought, maintained and kept in existence by the attention of humans. Without the collaboration of their devotees, the òrìṣà would be betrayed, exposed and reduced to nothing. This notion seems to have been intrinsic to the religion since the earliest times. How can such an awareness be part of a devotee's ‘belief’? Rather than speculate abstractly, as Rodney Needham does (Needham 1972), about whether people of other cultures can be said to ‘believe’ at all, it seems more interesting to take a concrete case like the Yorba one where there is an unexpected–even apparently paradoxical–configuration of ideas, to ask how these ideas are constituted. Only by looking at them as part of a particular kind of society, with particular kinds of social relationships, can one see why such a configuration is so persuasive. The notion that men make gods is by no means unique to Yoruba thought. It is present to some degree in a number of traditional West African religions, and in some, such as the Kalahari one, it can be seen in an even more explicit form than in the Yoruba one. A comparison may help to show how it is the constitution of social relationships which makes such a notion not just acceptable but central to the religious thought of the society.

Cowrie Shell Divination & Ifa Spiritual Tools
Sango ~ Orisa of Fire
Sango is one of the most well loved and charismatic of the orisa. Also known as arira, “light and fire that flashes here and there in the sky”, he is not to be mistaken as the son of Oranmiyan and the one time Alaafin of Oyo. It is very important to distinguish between irunmole and humans, who because of their feats and behavior in life, were elevated to irunmole status while alive. This myth of Sango the irunmole as the Alaafin of Oyo seems to be very prevalent in the diaspora but is soundly rejected in Yorubaland. Odu Ifa (Owonrin Wori) clearly state that any reference to Sango in the Kingdom of Oyo is due to the King of Oyo naming his two sons, Ajaka, and the other Sango, because of the latter’s character and powers similar to that of the ancient orisa Sango. There is a difference between humans who were given title as an orisa because of their feats during life, and the irunmole. Hardly anyone uses the word “orisa” in Yorubaland, they use irunmole when speaking of the forces which humans have anthropomorphized to call orisa. Ifa speaks in parables, and even when talking about which orisa had many “wives” and seemingly human endeavors, there is a deeper meaning if we look into the matter. There is a spiritual meaning beyond what our human mind wants to make fit so neatly with our own lives and social environment.
Sango is known as the Lord of Thunder, a master herbalist, and one who metes out Justice by means of the thunder and fire that he can blow from his mouth, and his use of the many thunder stones he throws to strike his enemies down. He dresses in a tunic and skirt of strips of cloth covered with cowrie shells in intricate designs and plaits his hair in the fashion of a woman. Many statues and icons are mistakenly thought in the diaspora to be those of female orisa when in fact they are depicting Sango with a bosom as he is also an orisa linked to fertility.
Sango’s nature is very masculine, straight forward, bold, confident, energetic, brilliant and confident. Children of Sango are usually very attractive, tall and slim limbed, adventurous and have little patience with slow thinkers. This is due to Sango being a brilliant strategist and tactician; a natural leader who rallies people around him. Magnetic, intelligent, Sango uses his talents to push strategies and plans through to a successful outcome. He is capable of succeeding in all matters of Justice and just as capable to relish the fruits of his conquests and victories after the battle is won.
Many praise oriki recite his virtues:
Ino loju, ino lenu: fire in the eyes and mouth.
Aa fi igba ita segun: One that won battle with 200 stones.
Onimu nsimu, eke nsa: Sango is working and the dishonest are nervous and fleeing.
Oloju orogbo, elereke obi: One that has eyes of bitter kola and cheeks of obi seeds.
Sango lomo aa ja maa jebi: Wherever and whenever Sango fights, judgment is always on his side
Ayanyan ino, akata yeriyeri: Light and flames that blow here and there.
Sango lo mewe , emi ko mewe: I do not know how to use herbs and leaves, but Sango knows very well)
Sango possesses both male and female devotees, and while in trance can eat fire, walk on coals, and carry a live brazier of coals on the head or place coals in their mouths. Sango is owner of the most spirited dancing and his leaps and high kicks are fantastic to watch as he dances to the very fast paced beat of his signature drumming.
Sango priests can be seen in Yorubaland performing feats of magic such as cutting the eyes, tongue, skin with a machete and within seconds the wound will stop bleeding and heal up before the eyes. They pierce the skin with needles, swords, nails, razors and suffer no permanent damage. Sango makes the human body impervious to injury while manifested and he is linked to the sacred Baobab tree which is also the only tree in the forest that can withstand fire and remain standing. Baobab tree bark, roots, leaves and fruit and its use in Ifa medicine/preparations is sacred to Sango and at the tree’s base after a thunderstorm, Sango’s edun ara ( a smooth stone shaped like an ax head), can often be found along with smaller thunder stones. Devotees search for these after thunderstorms to use in their devotion and for protection.
Sango was historically married to Oya, the river orisa, who rises up to create rain drenched wind storms and tempests, and some say it was actually she who gave the power of fire to Sango. What is certain is that wherever Oya arrives, Sango soon follows. He is a strict enforcer of justice and detests liars, thieves, dishonesty and insincerity. The children of Sango are also very astute in the judgement of character and do not tolerate liars, will fight passionately to defend those who are wronged, and take vengeance on those of bad action and character. They must always strive to those ideals of honesty and truth.
Some of the symbols of Sango are his two headed axe, or ose, and this is always in his shrine along with an upturned mortar, the edun ara on a clay plate covered with palm oil and many small stones which are used to fight enemies. His colors are red, white and some black, the cloth is usually always elaborately covered with cowrie shells. There can be bata drums and there is always a seere, a small gourd which is used in the shrine offerings and its larger cousin can also be used as a musical instrument when covered with a net of beads called a shekere, in the diaspora. The seere gourd has a long history with Sango and you will never find one without the other.
The Story of Sango and the Seere
A verse from Oyeku Rete says:
…Adifafun sere ti o fe Igbadun leyin Sango Thus declared Ifa oracle to Seere that wanted to pair up with Sango.
Seere is the one that announced the arrival of Sango to the townspeople, just as the Oba’s messenger who runs before the arrival of the King, that Sango would soon be coming to help the people solve their physical and spiritual problems and afflictions, as well as pray for their material needs. After Seere’s announcement, Sango would appear and immediately solve their problems. He performed as a physician using herbs and leaves (contained in the magical Seere) as well as foreseeing and predicting the future. Almost all of the people would give them money, fine cloth and many other gifts for assisting them overcome their troubles. When Sango and Seere reached their home one day to divide their gifts, Sango said that he would take the larger share, simply because he was the doctor attending to the people, while Seere only summoned for them. Seere rejected the notion and said they were full partners so they should either share the gifts equally or they should split up. Both of them agreed to dissolve their partnership and went their separate ways. Then, whenever each of them went out to work alone, people said, “this is not the real Seere! The Seere we know announces the arrival of Sango!”. The same happened when Sango went out, people said, “the coming of the real Sango we know is always announced by Seere!”. So both starved and they didn’t receive any food, gifts, or money as recognition from the people. Unbeknownst to each other they now separately went to consult the Ifa oracle. Ifa then revealed to them that they should settle the dispute that had arisen between them so they can have progress in life. They became partners again and Seere continued to announce the arrival of Sango and contain his ewe, leaves for Ifa medicine (ewe oogun). It is for this reason that since that day Seere the gourd is always found in most shrines next to the ota of Sango.
Product Description
This volume rests on the crucial recognition that Yorba culture has extended far beyond the boundaries of Nigeria. For members of Yoruba diaspora, temporal and geographic distance has not fully erased their memory or cultural activism. Orisa worship remains one of the most prominent and recognizable evidence of this connection. With millions of Orisa practitioners in the world, Yoruba gods are very much alive and form part of the Nigerian and Yoruba diasporan religious experience. This Volume seeks to introduce new ideas, perspectives, and methodologies on Orisa worship. The chapters reflect a multi-disciplinary approach to orsia study, covering a wide range of topics such a divination, the practice of Santeria, festivals and songs, the creation of the orisa-based communities within the United States, and globalization of cults. Most importantly, the volume documents the survival of religious practices, and its important role of reinforcing cultural values within a community as well as empowering its members to progress in the modern world.

Orisa Is Not Idol Worship
Religion, Tradition Comments Off on Orisa Is Not Idol Worship 13,953 Views
The word”IDOL”, is derived from the Greek word, ‘EIDOLON’ which simply means, “image”. In the continent of Africa, I have not seen, read of or heard about the image of ‘GOD’ demonstrated in one form or the other whether in the form of a picture, mould, carving or drawing which can conveniently provoke and promote the thought of Man to realizing the possible ‘morphology’ (shape or form) of God. It is quite clear to an African that ‘Olodumare’ (God) is transcendental and hence, it borders down on abomination and self-deceit to represent God in a form whatsoever.
It is to be recognized that images of objects can be formed concrete or verbal. Hence, to the mind of every African, God becomes a formless Force of Supremacy (Megaforce) duly recognized as real, active, alive and omnipresent governing the earth and heavens, indeed, the universe!
It is emphatically certain, in all the above (as earlier explained ) in the way of “service” of the. Supreme Force by the African-man (at the instance of the Deities), through propitiations, that there is no noticeable “image” of any form that is worshipped; real objects of Nature that found favour-use with the Deities (while on earth) are only assembled to serve as the substratum to magnetize the spirit of the Deities under propitiation – as such Deities are believed by the African as the intermediaries btween him and God when invoked or appealed to (by supplication or otherwise); or they (Deities) cross his path-ways to God when unrecognzed or neglected or abandoned.
Logically, it should be recognized that there is a difference between worshipping “something” and standing before something” to worship something as a way of (better) service to the original something best known to the intermediates. And so, to recognize, call or identify Traditional Religion (Ifa) as Idol-worship” calls for a better brain to scrutinize, examine, and admit (for criterion-justification of sanity) when the true meaning of the word, Idol (derived from Greek, Eidolon) means “imega”. Hence, it is a misuse of word by men of mean reasoning who wallow in dersion and unwarranted condemnation of “that” which belongs to them, when, especially, they find themselves wanting in deep and meaningful researches into that which belongs to them. Africans are, by no means, idol-worshippers in their ways of service to the Supreme Force as they act in consonance with reality of existence of Man on earth vis-a-vis the Deities ‘et al’.
“Ifa” says; ‘That’ with which they are born wins not their admiration. It is the foreign ideals that they embrace very readily Divined for the (baited) hook which goes with the fish (in the waters)
Now, howbeit, that all the goodies(of life) that are out of our reach. Let the hook (of good fortune) plus our inner (spiritual) head bait them all to our gainful advantage.

from heaven at the same time. They descended to lloya with chain like the other Orisa. Obarese was a powerful man during his time on Earth and had many magical elements at his disposal. Oranfe is Obarese’s older brother. Because of his power, Oranfe wanted Obarese to leave his domain. Oranfe has thunder (Ara) and is first god that had the power where fire could come out from his mouth. Obarese can cause rain to fall whenever he wants. Ifa was consulted , and Oranfe told Obarese that he is to have a wife. Oranfe then slapped the rib of Obarese and changed the rib into a woman. The name of the woman is Osere.
Osere and Obasrese proceeded on their journey to leave the domain of Oranfe. They stopped at three locations. The first land was Igbodo and they relaxed well there and they want to stay. Oranfe then appeared to his brother and told him that he and his wife must proceed on with their journey. Obarese carried out his Ifa and Odu, he then perform ritual and he prayed to Olodumare. There was a tree where he and his wife were sitting and he directed his magic to the tree and the tree turned to a hill. This hill remains in Ife to today and is still the site of great magic and ritual.
Obarese continued on his journey. He stopped next in Gidi Ogbo. He met people that were joyful, they were celebrating an Ifa festival. They welcome him with pounded yam and melon soup and he want to start eating. Oranfe appeared to Obarese again and told him that he couldn’t eat the soup and had to continue on the journey. Obarese again took out his Opon Ifa and Odu and performed a ritual, he turned the soup into a great stone. This stone is still in Gidi Ogbo and is worshiped today.
Oranfe said that he had to move beyond river bank. Obares went to a place Igbo Ogbe. Obarese was afraid to cross the river. Oranfe said he should not fear and once he gets to the other side he will tell him what to do. After he crossed the river to the other side, Oranfe said that from that moment on, Obarese should never again come into his domain except for Oranfe’s festival.
Obarese never went again into his brother’s domain and he continued his life. He performed one wonder where he prayed to Olodumare to have yam grow during the Harmattan when nothing can grow. He reached a new home during the Harmattan and his family needed food but was unable to plant yam. He prayed and performed a ritual for the yam to grow in three days. The yam grew plentiful at the end of three days:
oko su lojo oko
oko ko isu awure legbe
He was also the first man to plant and grow the palm wine tree in one day and to take the palm wine out that very day. He had access to many powers.
During the reign of one Olofin, the people of the Ife communities were dying of hunger. The herbalists were unable to take care of them. During that time rain did not fall. The Olofin called a priest to come and find the solution but they could solve the problem. The people of the town told the Olofin that Obarese had the power to call for rain. Olofin called Obarese to come and solve this problem and he told Olofin that he will solve but he will need 6 pounded yam, rat fish and other material to perform the ritual. With this he had a power pot called Ikoko Elemeji, which he used to make the sacrifice and perform the ritual. During the ritual he was sang this song:
tojo nika losoro tojo nika losoro
iran je tan iran mu
tan tojo losoro
They called the (ojo ) rain. From that night the rain came. The Olofin said that he was a real powerful man and gave him his own respect. The other dieties became jealous and said he must leave their domain. He went to his friend Oluorogbo he give him his ikoko elemeji. Oluorogbo told Obarese that he wouldn’t betray him. Whenever the festival for Obarese was performed the rain would fall, they had to just call him and he will bring the ase. With that Obarese left that place. At the end of the day the Olofin began to beg to call the Obaro his friend Oluorogbo he give him his ikoko elemeji. Oluorogbo told Obarese that he wouldn’t betray him. Whenever the festival for Obarese was performed the rain would fall, they had to just call him and he will bring the ase. With that Obarese left that place. At the end of the day the Olofin began to beg to call the Obarese back. Obarese accepted and agreed to come back to his home. He went to see Oluorogbo and asked for his ikoko elemeji and he gave it back.
Another wonder that was performed by Obarese was when he was in the town of Ijugbe. Obarese one day was looking for an olo (grinding stone). He was in the process of making a powerful medicine. There was a tortoise that lived near his home. He saw the tortoise and turned him into a grinding stone to complete the medicine. This grinding stone is still in the Ijugbe shrine today. It is still used to make very powerful medicine.
Abon is a young woman that became an old woman. She stopped by the house of Obarese and asked Obarese if she could stay the night. At dinner time, Obarese wanted to eat pounded yam for dinner and he asked the older woman if she would like to eat pounded yam, she didn’t want pounded yam but wanted only egg. She wanted 16 eggs. Obarese’s wife became angry because of the inconvenience of fixing 16 eggs. Obarese told his wife to be calm, and gave the old woman 16 eggs making them one at a time. She ate the eggs and they showed her the room for her to sleep in that night. When the morning came, Obarese went to the farm. When he returned his wife was very upset because the old woman had not come out of the room. Obarese knocked on the door, then began to pull the door and it was stuck. He pulled very hard and the door opened. The room was filled with money and ileke , akun iyun and all other assorted ileke . The wife became scared and forced the door shut. Obarese opened it again and the old woman walked out and become the beautiful lady. Obarese was very angry with his wife Osere, and when very powerful men get angry some curses will fly out. Because of this, Osere was stricken with pox on her face and couldn’t leave the house again because she was embarrassed. From that time on, Obarese was a very wealthy man and never wanted for anything.
Orisa Obarese is the first to use ileke, akun iyun and other things to make beautiful clothing and also to wear it around his neck and he has his own special beads.

ABOUT
Carried to the Americas by slaves, the 8,000-year-old philosophy of Ifa originated with the Yoruba peoples of West Africa. Ifa's enduring message of strength and inner peace, one that offers a way to harmonize our spiritual and worldly aims, is enjoying a resurgence of popularity in the West.
Written by an avid student and accomplished practitioner, The Way of the Orisa provides an exhilarating introduction to the orisa, the powerful messenger spirits who act as our personal guardians. Through fables, rituals, prayers and simple guidelines, Philip Neimark shows how we can further our personal and professional goals by cultivating the loving support of orisa energy.
Joyous, wise and eminently practical, The Way of the Orisa brings a vibrant ancient tradition to contemporary life.

here’s an expression: I hate to say I told you so. Well I don’t hate it at all. I enjoy it quite a bit, actually.
And when it comes to Overwatch’s newest character, I told you so. Granted, so did a lot of other people, but so what? My theory was terrific. The best theory. Everybody thinks so.
There wasn’t a snowball’s chance in Numbani that the newest addition to the game would be a little girl.
I’m even more pleased that it wasn’t a third human woman. Instead, we got Orisa, an Omnic centaur-like creature that Blizzard describes as an anchor-tank, or someone the rest of the team can rally ’round.
Orisa is a really cool character. Not only is she a robot, she’s also sort of animal-like, or bug-like, combining my wish list for either a robot (like Bastion) or an animal (like Winston) into one. She’s also basically a combination of Bastion and Reinhardt, with maybe a touch of a few other characters. In other words, she’s totally new and she’s a blast to play.
I’ve played her in the Public Test Region and find her way more fun to play than the other two newbies, Sombra and Ana. That might just be personal bias, but it’s how I feel.
Orisa has a laser machine gun for her primary weapon, tosses an orb that sucks opponents toward it as her secondary, and can momentarily make herself really tough with the shift button. She can also toss shields out in front of her, and her Ultimate grants the rest of the team an attack buff. It’s a really useful, intuitive skill set, though I found myself tossing those shields way too far out in front of me.

ORISA OKO
ORISA OKO was a poor hunter, solitary save for his fife and his dog. If ever he lost his way out in the fields or the forest, he would begin to play some plaintive melody on his fife, and the sounds would lead the faithful dog to his side to guide him home.
He earned a meagre living by trapping in his nets guinea-fowls on the land of rich farmers, but because of his solitary life and his habit of silence, he was respected as a man possessed of secret knowledge which he did not care to divulge.
As years went by, he grew too old for hunting, and took up his residence in a cave. People now thought him more mysterious than ever, and came to him for advice about the future, so that in a short time he won great renown as a soothsayer. From far and near people came to consult him, and in this way he managed to live very comfortably.
In those days witchcraft was punished p. 13 by death, and it became the custom in the country that anyone suspected of the evil art should be dragged to Orisa Oko’s cave. If the soothsayer found him innocent, he led him forth by the hand, but if he were judged guilty, his head was cut off and thrown to the waiting crowd by the demon Polo, which Orisa Oko kept in the cave.
This went on until the old hunter’s death. His followers now wished to continue the practice, and so they hid in the cave a very strong man to act as the demon Polo. When anyone accused of witchcraft was brought to the cave, his head was usually cut off and thrown out as before.
However, it once happened that a very tall and muscular man was suspected of magic arts, and his accusers succeeded in dragging him to the cave. A large crowd waited with eagerness to learn the result. What was their dismay to see the head of the supposed “demon” come rolling out of the cave, for the strong man had proved too much for him, and soon reappeared unharmed and triumphant.
p. 14
The people were indignant to learn how they had been deceived, and from that day the cave of Orisa Oko was deserted.

MOREMI
A NOBLEMAN of Ile-Ife had a beautiful and virtuous wife named Moremi, and a handsome young son, Ela.
The country of the Ifes was at that time subject to fierce raids by a tribe called the Igbos, who were of such an uncanny appearance in battle that the Ifes thought them not human, but a visitation sent by the gods in punishment for some evil. In vain did they offer sacrifices to the gods; the raids of these strange beings continued, and the land was thrown into a state of pamc.
Now the heroic Moremi, desiring to bring an end to this condition of affairs, resolved to let herself be captured during one of the raids, so that she might be p. 15 carried as a prisoner to the land of the Igbos and learn all their secrets.
Bidding farewell to her husband and her little son, she went to a certain stream and promised the god of the stream that, if her attempt was successful, she would offer to him the richest sacrifice she could afford.
As she had planned, she was captured by the Igbos and carried away to their capital as a prisoner. On account of her beauty she was given to the King of the Igbos as a slave; and on account of her intelligence and noble heart she soon gained the respect of all and rose to a position of importance.
Before she had been in the country very long, she had learnt all the secrets of her enemies. She found that they were not gods but ordinary men. On going into battle they wore strange mantles of grass and bamboo fibre, and this accounted for their unnatural appearance. She also learned that because of these mantles of dry grass, they were much afraid of fire, and that if the Ifes were to rush among p. 16 them with lighted torches, they would quickly be defeated. As soon as it was possible, she escaped from the palace and from the territory of the Igbos and returned to her own people. Her tidings were joyfully received at Ile-Ife, and shortly afterwards the Igbos were utterly defeated by the trick Moremi had suggested.
Moremi now went to the stream and made a great sacrifice of sheep, fowls, and bullocks; but the god of the stream was not satisfied and demanded the life of her son.
Sorrowing, Moremi was forced to consent, and sacrificed the handsome boy Ela. The Ifes wept to see this sad spectacle, and they promised to be her sons and daughters for ever, to make up for her loss.
But lo! Ela as he lay upon the ground was only half dead, and when the people had departed, he recovered consciousness and sprang up. Making a rope of grass, he climbed up to heaven, and it is certain that he willSacred-Texts African Index Previous Next

THE LEOPARD-MAN
A HANDSOME stranger once came into a certain village and strolled about among the people in mysterious silence. All the maidens admired him and wished that he would choose one of them for his bride. But he said nothing, and at last walked away into the forest and disappeared from sight.
A month later the stranger came again, and this time one of the maidens fell so much in love with him that she resolved to follow him into the forest, as she could not bear to be separated from him.
When the stranger looked back and saw her coming behind him, he stopped, and begged her to return home; but she would not, and exclaimed: “I will never leave you, and wherever you go, I will follow.”
“Beautiful maiden, you will regret it,” replied the stranger sadly, as he hurried on.
After a while he stopped again, and once p. 19 more begged her to retrace her steps; but she made the same reply, and again the handsome stranger said in sorrowful tones: “You will regret it, beautiful maiden!”
They went far into the depths of the forest, and at length reached a tree at the foot of which there lay a leopard-skin. Standing under the tree, the stranger began to sing a melancholy song, in which he told her that though he was allowed once a month to wander about in villages and towns like a man, he was in reality a savage leopard and would rend her in pieces as soon as he regained his natural form.
With these words he flung himself upon the ground, and immediately became a snarling leopard and began to pursue the terrified girl.
But fear gave such speed to her feet that he could not overtake her. As he pursued her he sang that he would tear her in small pieces, and she in another song replied that he would never overtake her.
p. 20
For a great distance they ran, and then the maiden suddenly came to a deep but narrow river, which she could not cross. It seemed as if the leopard would catch her after all. But a tree, which stood on the river-bank, took pity on her and fell across the river, so that she was able to cross.
At last, nearly exhausted, she came to the edge of the forest and reached the village in safety. The leopard, disappointed of its prey, slunk back into the forest, and the handsome stranger was never seen again.

WTHE Bat is half a bird and half a rodent, and lives partly on the earth and partly in the air, but both rats and birds shun him, and this is why:
The rats, his cousins, were once fighting a great battle with the birds, and Bat fought in their midst.
But when he saw that the birds were likely to be victorious, he left the rats and flew up into the air to fight on the side of the birds.
Both the rats and the birds were disgusted at this cowardly action, so they ceased from fighting one another and all combined to attack the Bat.
Since that day he has been forced to hide in dark places all day, and only comes out in the evening when his enemies cannot see him.

The Yoruba : Olorun and Orisa

Two problems commonly arise with general accounts of Yoruba religion. Firstly, they often fail to indicate just how extensive are the variations from town to town. Some idea of this can be gained from comparing the detailed accounts of specific communities, such as Bascom’s study of Ife, (1944), Morton-Williams’ studies of Oyo and Egbado (1964a,1967a), or Ogunba’s study of Ijebu (1967). Secondly, some of the accounts, particularly by theologians, tend to make Yoruba religious thought appear far more systematic and coherent than it in fact is. Articulate informants like the babalawo may be able to describe the system as it appears to them, though even here there may be problems (Bascom, 1960: 405). But their accounts remain individual constructions rather than generally accepted bodies of dogma. Most actors are concerned with a body of folklore and ritual technique which will help them in everyday life, and both may vary from place to place. A body of folklore like the Ifa verses (Bascom, 1969b) may present a number of apparently inconsistent versions of the Yoruba world-view. It is not necessary to attempt to reconcile them, and there are obvious difficulties in doing so.
The Yoruba cosmos contains Olorun or Olodumare, the supreme deity; the orisa or lesser divinities; ancestral spirits, and a number of other categories of spiritual beings. Man is made up of both corporeal and spiritual elements, the latter having a variety of functions. These are related to Yoruba beliefs about destiny and reincarnation. Fulfilment of one’s destiny is achieved through avoiding the wrath of the orisa and the attacks of witches and sorcerers. This is done with the help of the orisa and the ancestors, and through piety, divination and sacrifice.
Olorun is to the Yoruba a rather distant figure, apparently playing little part in the day-to-day affairs of men. Idowu uses the analogy of the Yoruba oba who is responsible for the affairs of his kingdom, but who has little contact with his subjects, as most of his dealings with them are through the orisa. He argues that the orisa are, nevertheless, only the ministers of the deity, whose supremacy is clearly recognised. He is the creator, the final arbiter of heavenly and worldly affairs, omniscient, immortal and pure, and the source of all benefits to mankind (Idowu, 1962: 38-56).
The number of orisa worshipped by the Yoruba is very large, though they range in importance from those worshipped by only a single descent group in a single town to those whose cult is found throughout the area. Their nature and origins are varied. Some are personifications of natural features, such as hills or rivers, or of natural forces. Others are divinised heroes given cosmic attributes, such as Sango, the Oyo divinity of thunder and, by tradition, an early Alafin.[1] The important divinities lead hierarchies of minor ones with similar characteristics, symbols and functions. The ‘hard’ orisa are led by Ogun, the divinity of iron, hunting and war, while the benign ‘white’ orisa, particularly important to women, are led by Orisanla, the Yoruba creator. The parallels between these hierarchies and the Yoruba political system are obvious.Before the spread of the world religions, there was a close relationship between cult membership and descent (Bascom, 1944: 1ó8; 1969a: 77ó 8). A person normally attended the rituals of the orisa which his own parents had followed, and contributed to their cost, but would only be initiated into a cult if ‘called’, through dreams, sickness, possession or divination. If a woman prayed to an orisa for a child and her request was granted, the child would probably worship the orisa throughout its life. In some areas, the father asked a diviner at birth which orisa his child should follow.
Initiation into a cult involves lengthy training, and can be a period of intense emotional crisis. The cults of some orisa, particularly the ‘hot’ or ‘strong’ ones, involve spirit possession (Verger, 1963; Prince, 1964: 105-9). This usually affects women, though the Sango cult is an exception. The Sango possession priest, or elegun, is a man, but he is dressed in the clothes and hairstyle of a woman. During the Sango festival, he dances in a trance state and gives displays of power. In Ogbomoso in 1971 these included fire-eating, apparently piercing the lips with an iron needle, and turning leaves into cigarettes. During the initiation process, a lengthy torpor is produced, during which behaviour patterns appropriate to the orisa are learned. During the festivals, certain clues, like a particular type of drumming, are enough to send the initiate into a trance state.
Orisa worship involves three types of ritual. Firstly, there are private individual rites, carried out in the house, usually early in the morning. The worshipper greets his orisa, and divines with a kola nut what the prospects are for the day (Awolalu, 1970). Secondly, there are the regular rituals at the orisa’s shrine, and the cycle of these is based on the four-day Yoruba week.[2] Thirdly, there are the annual festivals, much more elaborate affairs involving a large proportion of the population of the town as well as cult members from elsewhere.
The ruler plays an important unifying role in religious life in the town, and the major festivals involve a procession to the palace to greet him and bestow on him the blessing of the orisa. Rulers are expected to participate in the annual festivals on behalf of their community, whatever their own religious beliefs. There are other links between religious and political organisation. In Oyo, many of the chiefs are also cult officials, and some of the most important cults have representatives in the palace (MortonWilliams, 1964a). The Sango cult was important in the administration of the provinces. It was controlled from the capital, and some of the ilari were initiates who could threaten supernatural sanctions, as could the Alafin himself. Elegun from other parts of the kingdom had to come to the capital for the final stages of initiation and to collect their ritual paraphernalia (Westcott and MortonWilliams,1962). Cult officials had to be called in when certain types of misfortune occurred. Sango priests were responsible for purificatory rites when a house was struck by lightning, and the victims had to pay heavy fees for their services. Albinos, hunchbacks, dwarfs and pregnant women were sacred to Orisanla, and had to be buried by his priests, while the clothes and bodies of smallpox victims were disposed of by the priests of Sopona. In the early colonial period, the Sopona cult was banned by the British when the cult members were suspected of spreading the disease deliberately
The major orisa in a Yoruba town have their shrines and priests with their distinctive dress and insignia. Each orisa has its favourite sacrificial offerings, and its followers observe a distinctive set of food taboos. The same basic symbolism often permeates all aspects of ritual. The followers of Orisanla wear white cloth, and the usual offerings are also white, such as boiled yams or snails cooked in shea butter. Each cult has its own rituals, music, oral literature, dances and divination techniques. To their followers, the orisa bring the benefits of health, wealth and children, but they punish neglect, impiety and the breaking of taboos.

Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́ is an Orisa priestess who is also a graduate of Economics from the Obafemi Awolowo University. She was a guest at the last Aké Arts and Books Festival where she participated in a panel about the plurality of the African religious space. I caught up with her with a few questions of my own.
***
Tell me about yourself, your educational background.
My name is Ẹgbẹ́ladé Omítọ̀nàdé Ifáwẹ̀mímọ́. I live in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria. I practice African Traditional Religion. I am a Yemọja Priestess, also versed in Ifá. I am a graduate of Ọbáfẹ́mi Awólọ́wọ̀ University, Ilé-Ifẹ̀, Ọṣun State where I studied Economics Education.
Tell me about your interest and knowledge of Ifá and Oriṣà worship. How did it begin, and why?
What interests me in Ifá and Òrìṣà worship is that it can help our people to connect with their Guardian Orìṣà and the ancestors. And in doing so, help them to follow their destiny and to be the best person they can be.
Ifá and Òrìṣà worship are the original spiritual practices in Africa especially in Yorùbáland. In Yorùbáland where the religion comes from, the worship, rituals and traditions were mainly family-based. The practice of Ifá/Orìsà is a spiritual path to transformation, a transformation from the inside out, that begins with you as an individual and ends with you as an individual. Ifá worship is different from Òrìṣà worship.
Ifá worship is practiced by a Babaláwo or Ìyánífá. Ifá is the esoteric word of Olódùmarè. Ifá is the connector between mankdind and Olódùmarè. Ọ̀rúnmìlà is the intermediary between Ifá and Olódùmarè. Ọ̀rúnmìlà is the Òrìṣà of wisdom, prophesy and ethnics. Babaláwo or Ìyánífá are believed to be able to contact Ọ̀rúnmìlà during their divination, rituals. They make use of Ọ̀pẹ̀lẹ̀ and Ikin Ifá as their means of divination. While Òrìsà Worship is being practiced by Babalórìṣà or Ìyálórìṣà. Òrìṣà are considered as ministers of Olódùmarè and intermediaries between humanity and Olódùmarè. Òrìṣà are human beings who once lived on earth and who performed in an exemplary way. They were later venerated as Òrìṣà after their death… people like Ṣàngó, Ọya, Ọ̀ṣun, Yemọja et al. Òrìṣà devotees make use of Ẹ̀rìndílógún (Sixteen Cowries) for their divination.
Ifa Orisa worship began from time immemorial. My take is that as mankind evolved and became aware of natural phenomena and the works of Olódùmarè around them, they found that all these things couldn’t have just come to being on their own, hence the need to reverence a Supreme Being (Olódùmarè). You know the Supreme Being provides its existence through nature like water, fire, wind… which represent each Òrìṣà. It is this belief that helped maintain our ecosystem.
Something I’ve always wondered about, what’s the difference between Ọbàtálá and Ọrúnmìlà?
Ọ̀rúnmìlà is different from Ọbàtálá in terms of their functions but they are both Òrìṣàs. Ọ̀rúnmìlà is also known as Ẹlẹ́rìí Ìpín (the witness of human destiny). It is believed that he knows everything about man and can give advice as to any events. Ọ̀rúnmìlà was charged with the function of using his profound wisdom, knowledge and understanding of divination to put the chaotic earth in order. He knows the past, present, future and this is why he is called Akéré f’inú ṣọgbọ́n (the small one with the mind full of wisdom). While Ọbàtálá also known as Òrìṣà Nlá, Osogiyan, Ọbalùfọ̀n, Olúfọ̀n..is the god of creativity, purity, albinism, hunchback, paralysis. He is the eldest Òrìṣà and is held responsible for the creation of earth and of human bodies…
How did you decide which of the deities you would worship? Or has one particularly been in your family?
My Guardian Òrìṣà is Yemọja. The Yorùbá believe that we are all born with a specific destiny that is a purpose in life. And before our soul came to the earth we have made the decision as to what our destiny was to be and in so doing, we choose our birth Odù (one of the Ifá Corpus or the Sixteen Cowries), Guardian Òrìṣà and Guardian Ancestors to help us guide our path of destiny. My Path of Destiny was guided by the means of divination called Ẹ̀rìndílógún (Sixteen Cowries). It revealed my Guardian Òrìṣà, which is Yemọja, did the initiation and all sorts. The Òrìṣà has been guiding me on my Path when I keep to the taboos and weaknesses I was given during the initiation. Although they have been worshipping the Òrìṣà in my family before I was born… Ká sọ pé mo báa nílé ni *blushing*smiles*
o, for people like me, ethnic/native Yorùbá children, whose parents never sought information about our birth Odù, Guardian ancestors, etc, is there a modern way to find it? If so, how? I know that we’re descended from Ogún worshippers and professionals, and it is reflected in our Oríkì. But nothing has been mentioned about a birth Odù.
Yes, there is a modern way to find it, which is through Ifa/Orisa divination. You might be a descendant of Ogun, yet it might not work with your own Personal head/Inner Head. It may be another Orisa. It can never be mentioned, you know the birth Odu is Spiritual… You can get to know your birth Odu during the initiation processes or while the initiation is being held.
How have you coped with being an African spiritual worshipper in a country where Islam and Christianity have taken over the public spaces?
It has not been an easy one, but I thank Olódùmarè and Orí that I have always been the best. lol. Our people have turned away from it because of ignorance also they lack self knowledge. But I do try my best to enlighten them in my own little knowledge that I have in African spirituality. So help me Olódùmarè.
There is something fascinating about the tolerance of specifically Yorùbá religious beliefs for plurality that has allowed them to live in peace with other religions, even though the other religions haven’t given them the same courtesy. What part of the religious worldview of the Yorùbá do you think is responsible for that kind of tolerance of plurality and dissent?
In my own view the Yoruba traditional religion preaches peace and harmony in all forms, in the absence of peace (alaafia), iwure (Prayer) tends to hang. This had in turn made Yoruba Traditional adherents to tolerate foreign beliefs. Before the introduction of other religions, Yorubas lived comfortably with each other, and it was never documented in any of the oral scripture of Yoruba religion that some are non believers….In addition, Ifa have talked about other religions in details..
What misconceptions about Òriṣà worship would you like to enlighten them about if you can?
There is a misconception in Èṣù being a Satan or He is a depiction of evil. Èṣù is not Satan!!! This is a grave misconception of who Èṣù is in the Yorùbá tradition. The Èṣù Láàlú we worship in Yorùbá tradition is totally different to Satan/Shaitan in their Bible or Quran. Èṣù is among 801 Irúnmọlẹ of Olódùmarè whose actions and purpose on earth falls within the jurisdiction of Olódùmarè. Our own Èṣù has never opposed the will of Olódùmarè. He’s the one who bore our wishes up to Olódùmarè. He stand for justice and equity. All his attributes of power, wisdom, knowledge and skills are all given to him by Olódùmarè for the purpose of his mission on earth. He does not have the power or gut to contest the position of Olódùmarè. So, there is no correlation of any form between Satan/Shaitan and Yorùbá’s Èṣù Láàlú.
ow long has it taken you to learn the process of Ọrìṣà priesthood, and what are the challenges?
It has been 20 yrs now that I have been in the learning process of the Òrìṣà Priesthood, and I am still learning. You know Ifá is a body of knowledge that is wide. Being a Priest/Priestess has procedures and traditional rites (initiation, learning of Ẹ̀rìndílógún et al). There are also a lot which are best known to oneself or personal.
Yeah, and speaking of that, let me ask you something else I may have asked you before. How hard is the memorization of the Odù Ifá? Because the survival of the Ifá divination systems has been because of generations of elders passing the knowledge down through words. How good must one’s retention be to be a successful priest or priestess? Can one just write things down rather than just commit them to memory? What role can technology play?
Culture is dynamic and ways of life evolve. Memorization is the first step/key—like learning ABC. But with the invention of technology, this has really assisted the means of learning by literal documentation and even oral recitations that can be seen on YouTube and other links that promotes Ifa divination. Learning through elders, like you’ve said will lay the template on which other learning improvements and advancements will strive. Technology will play the role of catalyst.
Of all the Odù Ifá, which is your favorite and why?
Ọ̀sẹ́ Òtúrá is my favorite Odù Ifá. Because it speaks about women. It says if they are not given honor and respect then they can become angry and have the ability to destroy the world. The Odù Ifá teaches us not to use our eyes to undervalue a woman. *blushing* *smiles*
Do you have mentors in Yorùbá spirituality, and how has the journey been so far?
My father is the main driver of my knowledge in African spirituality. He has really dedicated all his time to feeding me. Also, I wine and dine with the elders like Bàbá Awo Abíọ́dún Agboọlá, Bàbá Solomon Ọ̀ṣundárà, Ìyálórìṣà Ayọ̀délé, Iya Logunede, etc to seek for knowledge in Òrìṣà worship. The Journey have been so so beautiful and fun.
How do you think the interest in African spirituality can be stimulated in the country, and most of the misconceptions reduced?
Firstly I think that most importantly practitioners of the faith have to be shining examples of exemplary character in any area of life they find themselves. This would raise questions and pique people’s interests.
Secondly, as the world is now a global village, the good gospel of the faith must be propagated via publicity, public enlightenment… Example like the walk/movement for Èṣù we did last year December…
Finally question from me: a friend of mine, a devout Christian, wants me to ask you if your belief allows you to date or marry people who do not share your mode of worship.
Of course Yes. My religion accepts all humanity, no discrimination.
Thank you for your time.
