IFA OF THE YEAR 2012/2013 AS REVEALED IN OKE ITASE ON SATURDAY 2ND OF JUNE 2012.
ODU OF THE YEAR 2012
The Odu that was revealed during the annual world Ifa consultation at Oke Itase Ile Ife on the 2nd of June 2012 was Ogbe Ogunda (Ogbe Iyonu). Ifa foresees Ire of prosperity for all devotees.
There is the need for all those who are born by this Odu during Ikosedaye or Itenifa to feed their Ifa with two kola nuts, four bitter kolas, and a bottle of liquor, preferably schinapps or rum. Others who are not born by this Odu may also do so too if they so desire.
Messages of the Odu
- Ifa advocates a lot of patience on the path of all devotees because they are presently going through serious financial crisis. This is a global phenomenon. Ifa however advocates the need to be resillent and to be steadfast in whatever we are doing because there is light at the end of the tunnel. Ifa warns against quiting the stage for whatever reason because all will be well at the end of the day.
Ifa advises each person, group, community, state or nation to offer ebo with two pigeons, two hens, two guinea-fowls, two roosters, two rats, two fish and money. On this, Ifa says:
