How to select the right ebo for your problem

A babalawo performing ebo


It is one thing to unveil a problem and another thing to proffer solution to such problem.  Ebo as it is generally reckoned with, is the key not only to prayer-answering but also a delicate procedure to solve a spiritual problem no matter how deteriorating it could be. 

Bearing in mind the delicate approach to Ebo, a Babalawo must understand the nitty-gritty as regards ebo. 

He must know or select the right sacrificial items corresponding with what Ifa sees during divination.  For example, when IFA sees Ire aiku for a client, it is the duty of the Babalawo to know all the sacrificial items related to ire aiku not selecting ire Aje items for it. 

However, this short article tells you the sacrificial items for every problem or goodness Ifa foresees for you.

Àikú (Deathlessness) : Cocks, he-goat, kolanuts, bitterkola,ram, money.

Aje ( wealth) : Pigeon, guineafowl, honey, bean cakes, kolanuts, money

Omo ( Children) : Rat, fish, goat, ewe, Kolanut, bitter kola, money

Aya ( Wife) : Hen, goat, ewe, Kolanut, bitter kola, money

Ìdèra (Convenience) : Pigeon, duck, food, kolanut, bitter kola, guinea fowl, money

Am very sure by now you know what goes for what.

Who is an Apetebi? : Her dos and don'ts

Image
In Ifa, there are specific roles that had been prescribed for an apetebi to ensure the development of home, the community, and the nation as a whole in line with the dictates of Olodumare. According to Ifa, an apetebi is the wife of Ifa, and not necessarily, the wife of a Babalawo or an ifa practitioner. A woman may be advised to have the symbol of Ifa on her person in order to solve a specific problem in life or to accelerate to the realization of certain goals for her while the husband may not be an Ifa practitioner at all.
