what will make you succeed will first of all make you very sad, but
in the end you will become very successful and very happy. Ifa

will make you succeed in life. There is the need for you to stay in
one place in order to enjoy your success especially in the rural
area. Ifa advises you to offer ebo with two pigeons, two hens,
two guinea-fowls, two roosters, plenty of red parrot feathers
and money. You also need to feed Obatala as specified by Ifa.

The slave that I purchase had brought me prosperity
The slave that I bought is indeed a pious one

9. Ifa says that it foresees the ire of victory for you. Ifa says that you
have several enemies who became your foes out of envy and
jealousy. They will go to any length to run you down but they will all
fail in their evil designs.

Ifa advises you to offer ebo with one matured he-goat and
money. The he-goat is to be slaughtered. The officiating Awo will
erect two poles by either side of Esu and a third pole will be placed
on it perpendicularly. It will look like the poles of the high jump. The
left arm of the slaughtered he-goat will be removed and will be tied
to the perpendicular pole and be allowed to dangle there for many
days. The maggots will be droppings on Esu. That is when your
victory is guaranteed. On this aspect, Ifa says:

dresses in order to avoid a situation where lethal portion will be

Wickedness has indeed turned to beauty for the wife of an Awo

10. Ifa says that you shall never face disgrace or humiliation. You
shall excel in your chosen career. You are empowered by Ifa to
speak authoritatively on any issue pertaining to your career as long
as you are sure that you are speaking the truth.

Ifa says that the door of success and accomplishment has been
locked against some people where this Odu is revealed. Ifa says
that some people intentionally did that against them; but Sango will
help them to break the lock. Ifa says that all the problems
associated with unconsummated fortune and failure shall be
removed from the lives of these people in seven days’ time.

Ifa advises you to offer ebo with four rats. Four fish, two ducks,
two pigeons, two guinea-fowls, two cocks and money. You
also need to feed Sango with plenty of Amala and gbegiri, bean
soup . After this, they need to feed Egungun Babalago, Egungun
Alaran-an and Egungun Alaso with plenty of moin-moin, eko, cock
and palm oil. Doing these will ensure success for you and make
your issues turn to joy. On these aspects, Ifa says:

11. Ifa advices you to offer ebo for one of your wards not to be
incarcerated or be put into a serious problem. The ward in question
is a male. Ifa also says that the child will be sympathetic to his
parents and/or guardians; and in the process, he may do things
that may put him on the spot. It is therefore important for the
parents or guardians to offer ebo for him in order to move him out
of trouble.
Ifa also warns everybody close to you to be careful not to go and
stand as witness over any issue. As a matter of fact, it is a serious
taboo for anyone whose Odu is Ogbe Ose during Itenifa or
Ikosedaye to stand as witness over any issue whatsoever.

Ifa advises you to offer ebo with ekuru (bean pudding that is
prepared without salt, oil and pepper), and two big smoked cat
fish and money. The bones of the cat fish will be removed and
mixed with the ekuru. The mixture will be placed at the center of
the three cross-roads. If this is done, even if there is any litigation,
you will come out triumphant. On this aspect, Ogbe-Sewo-Aje says:

shall be blessed with profit, accomplishment and contentment.

Ifa also says that there is the need for you to offer ebo against being
overwhelmed with crises. You need to follow Ifa’s advice in order
not to put yourself in the line of attack from those who are more
powerful or more influential than you.

big bags of maize, four big bags od melon seeds, egusi, four
big bags of guinea corn seeds, four big bags of beans, four
big bags of yams and money. All these items are to be divided

Together with all his belongings
They came to ask for Ogbe
They told them that he had sneaked away
The place where Ogbe sneaked away

15. Ifa says that you will not be allowed to die young. Ifa says
that in your dreams, you have been receiving many invitations for
you to return to heaven. Ifa says that it is not in your best interest
to return to heaven at this time. This is because your mission in life
is yet to be accomplished.

Ifa says also that there were some occasions when you will be
hearing people calling your name but when you turn to the direction
where your name is being called, you will not be able to see
anyone. Ifa says that the name was being called by people in
heaven who wanted you to return to their midst as quickly as
possible.

Ifa advises you to offer ebo with two rats, two fish, two hens, two
she-goats and money. You also need to feed Ifa with two rats,
two fish, two hens and two goats. Doing this will make those
calling and wishing you to come to heaven to desist from doing so.
