Description

Receiving Isefa is the essential first step for anyone seeking the guidance and protection of Orunmila within the Oyo tradition. This ceremony establishes a permanent bond between your Ori and the wisdom of the Orisha through the receipt of one full hand of Ifa consisting of 21 ikins. As a physical sign of this sacred covenant you also receive your Ide Ifa which is the consecrated bracelet that serves as a shield against negative energies and a marker of your spiritual alignment. You will receive your temporary odus and taboos. This foundational rite is designed to bring immediate stability to your life while allowing you to begin your own personal practice of devotion with the clarity and protection needed to walk your path with confidence.
