Bênçãos de Olodumare
Que Olodumare lhe abençoe. A família é o tesouro mais precioso de uma pessoa. Ser fiel, cuidar da família, trabalhar arduamente e acreditar no impossível são os princípios que Enitolodu espera de seus filhos.
Podemos ser mais abençoados à medida que nosso caráter se alinha com o Divino. O Ser Supremo nos deixou tudo o que precisamos para evoluir e alcançar a graça das bênçãos divinas para nossa família, de geração em geração.
O medo não deve fazer parte de nossa existência. As forças contrárias, como Arogo Sajuologo ou até mesmo Ajogun, percebem aqueles que estão prontos para serem vítimas. Ao implantar o medo, o resto se torna fácil para a destruição e o rompimento com nossos Irunmole.
Portanto, mantendo a fé em Edumare, Orisa e todos os Irunmole, bem como em nossos ancestrais, podemos permanecer em sintonia com o objetivo divino.
Olodumare agbe wa o.

"The Goals We Gave Away Were Kamikaze Really" - Barnet Boss Dean Brennan Frustrated After His Side Concede Two Against Hartlepool
Barnet manager Dean Brennan cut a frustrated figure in his post-match interview despite his team beating Hartlepool 3-2 on the opening day of the National League season. The first 81 minutes of the match went as well as anyone associated with Barnet could have imagined. A trio of headers from Adebola Oluwo (’22), Nicke Kabamba (’54) and Danny Collinge (’66) meant that the Bees were cruising…

Babaaláwo or Babalawo in West Africa (Babalao in Caribbean and South American Spanish and Babalaô in Brazilian Portuguese) literally means "father of secrets" in the Yoruba language. It is a spiritual title that denotes a high priest of the Ifáoracle. Ifá is a divination system that represents the teachings of the ÒrìṣàỌrunmila, the Òrìṣà of Wisdom, who in turn serves as the oracular representative of Olodumare.
Tumblr media
Functions in society
The Babalawos are believed to ascertain the future of their clients through communication with Ifá. This is done through the interpretation of either the patterns of the divining chain known as Opele, or the sacred palm nuts called Ikin, on the traditionally wooden divination tray called Opon Ifá.
Tumblr media
In addition to this, some of them also perform divination services on behalf of the kings and paramount chiefs of the Yoruba people. These figures, holders of chieftaincy titles like Araba and Oluwo Ifa in their own right, are members of the recognised aristocracies of the various Yoruba traditional states.
Tumblr media
People can visit Babalawos for spiritual consultations, which is known as Dafa. The religious system as a whole has been recognized by UNESCO as a “Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity."

More on the Nigeria visit and Emperor Oba plus an unintentionally hilarious video by u/Hermes_Blanket
More on the Nigeria visit and Emperor Oba, plus an unintentionally hilarious video Here is the official Facebook page of Emperor Oba Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, Paramount Ruler of Iwoland, who gave MM her new name "Adetokunbo" and to whom she wrote her calligraphy-laden thank-you note: https://ift.tt/gGHPkWJ a few things stand out. First, Emperor Oba is Muslim. If you look at the photos on his page, ALL the women are wearing modest clothing. Including his very elegant and beautiful Queen. NONE of them are wearing backless dresses, spaghetti straps, shorts, or skirts slit to the thigh. So much for the sugars' proclamations that Nigeria barely has any Muslims and Nigerian women dress just like Meghan all the time.It makes me wonder what Oba really thought of Meghan.If you look at the entry for April 24, the Nigerian First Lady visited him so they could ceremoniously initiate the construction of a new girls' school together. This is the same First Lady who couldn't be bothered to meet MM or visit a school with her. There are a ton of photos. Again, all the women are covered up (as are all the men!).If anyone still has any questions why Nigeria agreed to this faux royal visit, it's made clear in the entry for May 12:"It could be recalled that the founder of Invictus game, Prince Harry with her wife, Meghan Markle, has arrived in Nigeria on a 3- day working visit since last Friday. Giving his royal remarks, Oba Akanbi commended the Chief of Defense Staff, General Christopher Musa, for bringing sanity to the Nigerian army through multifarious activities including honouring the veterans, wounded and injured soldiers with Harry's visit. Oluwo equally expressed assurance the visit will re-engineer the kinship of Meghan ancestral connection with Nigeria, widening the chance of Nigeria to host Invictus game 2027 and enhance the proposal to site the game centre in Nigeria in support of the soldiers."I'm elated to be that of this event. I'm impressed with the current leadership of the Nigerian army. They are improving the tempo of our security architecture and boosting the morale of veterans, wounded and injured soldiers""The visit of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, respectively, facilitated by the Defense Headquarters is heroic. It will cement the security partnership and enhance Nigeria's chance to host the 2027 Invictus game. I'm honouring Meghan with a Yoruba name "Adetokunbo" meaning "Crown has come home from abroad". Hate to tell you, Megs, but all the attention was solely in hopes of getting something. Not because of your fabulous self.Here's the video of Haz and Megs being presented with traditional clothing (also on May 12). Just can't wait to see Harry wearing these duds. He looks extremely uncomfortable. https://ift.tt/ts8yjGX post link: https://ift.tt/i0ZYdbm author: Hermes_Blanket submitted: June 04, 2024 at 09:04AM via SaintMeghanMarkle on Reddit disclaimer: all views + opinions expressed by the author of this post, as well as any comments and reblogs, are solely the author's own; they do not necessarily reflect the views of the administrator of this Tumblr blog.

"Meghan [the Duchess of Sussex] has written the Paramount Ruler of Iwoland, Oba Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, for his hospitality and warm reception during their 3-day working visit to Nigeria last month.
...
"Her personal correspondence sent to Oluwo reads 'Thank you for your warm welcome to Nigeria. I’m deeply humbled by your blessing of the traditional Yoruba name, Adetokunbo. I treasure the name and appreciate your trust in me to carry it with grace and dignity.
"'Our visit to Nigeria was important for many reasons, but not least because it gave us an opportunity to explore and understand my heritage, which extends to our children. We look forward to coming back home one day soon.'"

Meghan Markle received a warm welcome during her visit to Nigeria where she was honoured as an 'Ada Mazi' - seemingly a title of respect meaning 'daughter of an aristocrat' - of the Ancient Arochukwu Kingdom.
Arochukwu is one 'one of the foremost ancient kingdoms in Africa', and is located in the north of Abia State.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The ceremony was graced by the presence of four renowned traditional rulers: the Obi of Onitsha, his Majesty Igwe Nnaemeka Alfred Ugochukwu Achebe; the Oluwo of Iwoland, Oba Abdulrasheed Adewale Akanbi; and the Olu of Warri, Ogiame Atuwatse III.
The Obi of Onitsha christened Meghan 'Ada Mazi,' which means 'the daughter of the Igbo ancestral palace.'
The Oluwo of Iwoland christened her with the Yoruba name 'Adetokunbo,' which translates to 'royalty from across the seas.'
Tumblr media Tumblr media
During the ceremony, the Duchess of Sussex expressed her gratitude and humility in a heartfelt speech.
"Thank you so much. I'm very very grateful I'm very humbled...Thank you so much for the titles and really beautiful names. We can't wait to come back, thank you so much."
Meghan wore a golden sash symbolizing her new Ada Mazi title and held onto a fabric depicting the "Oru-Arochukwu" insignia.
Tumblr media
In 2022, Meghan revealed on an Archetypes podcast episode that she is 43% Nigerian after taking a genealogy test.

How you start is not always How you finish
My first intro to Orisa was a way of Self Discovery, i was already working on my spirituality, training with Mentors in the Psychic community and reading clients when my regular reader Kept telling me that there was an african woman behind me saying the word “O-ri-sha”. Neither of us knew What that word meant but he insisted that I Found out. This Psychic was an old white man. A Message is a message despite the appearance of the Messenger
I eventually Traveled to New Orleans many times, had various experiences, even moved and became a reader there without ever knowing that New Orleans was where my paternal great grandparents immigrated to the USA from Jamaica through New Orleans, which I discovered many years later.
After getting into contact with a well nown Santero in Miami, I flew over to get Divination done, receive my elekes, guerreros, olokun, palo muerto etc. even got scratched in Preparation for doing ocha.
I eventually left the ile and my ocha basket, my elekes and orisas there After many things occurring, things spoken during misas that made me go hmmm and just general blockages. Several times my GPS would stop working and I would find myself lost for hours trying to find my padrino’s home. With him being a santero of elegua, I thought that was significant.
Eventually I took a break, went to a Babalawo and received my hand of ifa, new warriors etc. Discovered that the previous house was planning to initiate me to the wrong orisa, it was supposed to be his orisa and felt a type of ways. The babalawo that cast my odu isefa had the same ifa odu as me and also was a little shocked and my oluwo tried to illuminate my naive mind.
I took a long break from the religion, I had noticed that I garnered way more success without it, I had made the most money in my career, when I just left santeria alone. I tried one last time to give cuban ifa a try with another babalawo who remade all my shrines, taught me, mentored me, gave me me osain and allowed me to help him with clients and basic rituals and sacrifices. Learned a lot but same as before, nothing miraculous really changed. I switched to an Isese babalawo (popoola lineage) for ebbos just for change of perspective. I effectively left santeria, ifa and orisa for good, I would just get an ifa divination once in a while.
I went back to vodou because that was my first ATR experience and the ancestral pull as well as it actually worked for me. But during kanzo in Haiti, I started to dream a lot about Africa, somewhere I had never been or wanted to go, and I blew it off.
Months later, I had this strange dream involving sango, talking about ifa, I thought it was ludicrous so I contacted my babalawo for divination, and the odu cast spoke about both sango and going into ifa. Weeks later, I got another divination from someone from an afa lineage without telling him anything and he had a similar divination result. So I took it seriously after talking to 3 different babalawos from three different lineages and countries.
I found myself in africa for the first time, I was afraid, I did afa initiation as well as other ceremonies, I was still apprehensive though. After coming back to usa, I got an outside divination and it came out in ibi, someone was trying to take me out.
I got very ill, doctors ran tests for 5 weeks even wearing a heart monitor and they could not figure out why my heart was failing. Yup, I was dying at 33 years old, 5 years later my brother died at 33. You probably guessed it, it was an inside the family thing. Anyways, I was terminated from my employer and I threatened to sue them very publicly because I had nothing to lose. They settled, I had a large sum of money but I was still dying so I had two choices have fun or do orisa initiation and hope for a miracle.
I was invited to the ebohon center in Benin city, got my nigerian visa but I was too sick to travel back to africa, didn’t have medical authorization, so I went to Brazil instead, to initiate under one of Araba agboola’s godchildren there, I stayed for 5 weeks. I did a lot of ceremonies. I went into trance with orisa for the first time, then again and again. It was around the third time that I felt a significant change in my heart beat and the palpitations had stopped. Within 3 months, I never had another problem again.
I went back to Brazil and found out I was touched by the candomble bug via my previous godfather, meaning he mixed some things Brazilian and Isese. one tradition does not wipe out the other, no baptism can undo a previous ceremony also finding out that sango never left me alone despite him not being the orisha of my ori. I went to a festa of xango at the famous terreiro do cobre, one girl was mounted with xango, hugged me and wouldn’t let go until I slipped into trance. I woke up in the back room and the iyalorisa of the lineage said I had to do some ceremonies in candomble. I went to various terreiros to get differing opinions and they all said similar things. So that’s how I ended up in candomble when I didn’t want to be.
Before the pandemic, I went back to nigeria and Benin to learn, study, do more ceremonies over a planned trip of 6 weeks which turned into 6 months. Surprisingly enough I ended up in the ile of another popoola lineage babalawo and iyanifa without realizing it.
just clarify my relationship with the popoola family is purely transactional, I bought their entire library of books, lectures, songs, etc, did divination with them for many years and used their olorisas they usually employ but they don’t consider me to be affiliated and so neither do I. I have never met chief popoola in person
Ejiogbe is the odu of many ebbos, sacrifices, orikis, loss, abundance, gossip, jealousy, betrayal, triumph over adversity, healing, longevity, being well known but alone, many taboos, honesty but many lie on you, charity without gratitude or acknowledgment.

Oluwo Under Fire For Exposing Head In Mecca

In a video he posted on social media, his head was uncovered, and that attracted mixed reactions, because it is customary for a Yoruba king to always cover his head, especially when in public.
