Ifa Divination
Ifa Divination is a traditional African spiritual practice originating from the Yoruba people of Nigeria. It involves a system of divination that uses a set of sacred texts known as the Odu Ifa, which are interpreted by a priest or priestess called a Babalawo or Iyalawó. The process typically includes casting palm nuts or using a divination tray to reveal patterns that guide the interpretation.
The primary purpose of Ifa Divination is to provide guidance and insight into personal and communal issues. It addresses questions about health, relationships, and life decisions, helping individuals connect with their spiritual ancestors and the divine. This practice is deeply rooted in the cultural and religious beliefs of the Yoruba people.
