Reason why we offer Etutu



Ètùtù is similar to ebo but the are not the. A month or two, I posted an article on the reasons we make Ebo Riru, today Etutu is next.




Ètùtù as I said above is similar to ebo and according to Fasina Falde, ètùtù is done primarily to right any or all wrongs in the life of a client. When it had been established that, on a particular issue or problem, the life and destiny of a client is in total conflict, then ètùtù is prescribed. Ètùtù is usually prescribed when any situation is becoming unbearable for a client or a community.

During the period of imbroglio, ètùtù is prescribed to bring back normalcy into the community. When there is disaster, ètùtù is prescribed to out an end to such unfortunate happening. When there is pestilence in a community, ètùtù is prescribed. 

When there is high rate if infant mortality, ètùtù is recommended.
When a divorce rate is too high in a community, ètùtù is done, when the economy of a community is in ruins or the community itself is on the brink of total collapse, ètùtù is recommended, when also there is emotional or mental agony of unprecedented proportion for a client, then ètùtù is recommended.
Ètùtù is taken from the word, "Ètù-títù" meaning "to appease". Ètùtù is therefore an appeasement to evil spirits to put a stop to their unwanted machinations in order to bring back the life of the client to normalcy and in harmony with the client's destiny. Ètùtù is not meant to enhance a person, a community, nation or an organization's luck or misfortune. It is rather meant to redress ill-luck or misfortune and re-establish the person, institution or nation back to be in tune with destiny.
Ètùtù is offered as Ebo but it is more complicated than ebo. It entails more systematized actions. It is therefore advisable to leave this in the hands of the Adepts. Anything used for ètùtù cannot be used by the client.

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.

Ẹ̀rìndínlógún in the old way of using it: Baba Odùdúwà: In ancient times, the "Cowrie Shell" was used whole. They didn’t took the belly out (the womb) as it done now in many places, when the full Cowrie was used (without opening the "belly"), the reading of the Oracle was something different, if the Cowrie Shell falls with the belly up, this means that it does not speak.
