IFA OF THE YEAR 2024/2025 FROM OKE-ITASE, ILE-IFE, OSUN STATE, NIGERIA.
Eriwo Ya!!! In the name of Olodumare, Orunmila and all the Orisa, we greet everybody throughout the globe. We also extend the greetings of His Eminence Owolabi Awodotun Aworeni, the Araba/Olu-Isese Agbaye (the Permanent Chairman of the Council of Araba/Oluwo, the Pillar of the International Council for Ifa Religion (ICIR)) to you all in this season of the World Ifa Festival. With the combined efforts of Board of Ethics and Scripture and the Council of Elders of ICIR, we the members of Publication Committee of the Oke-Itase 2024/2025 Organizing Committee set up by the International Council for Ifa Religion are hereby presenting verses of the Ifa of the year recited with inspiration by the priests on the mat in the early hours of Sunday, 2nd June, 2024, which stands as the first day of the year in Ifa Calendar System. The Odu Ifa that came out for this year is OTURAOGBE (OTURA on the right, OGBE on the left). The Odu came with Ibi Arun (Disease/Sickness) and to cure or prevent this, ebo is recommended. Ifa Priests from Nigeria, Republic of Benin, Republic of Togo, Brazil, Trinidad and Tobago, Mexico, United States of America, Venezuela, Cuba, Argentina, Panama, Britain, Switzerland, Ghana and Sweden made their contributions. The verses of Oturaogbe recited with their narratives are as follows:
1. PROSPERITY
i. Ifa said our life will be sweet. Ebo is needed for likeness and love. We should make ebo with banana, honey and guinea fowl. Ifa said we should appease Ifa with honey and banana. On this, Ifa says:
Mo ji mo ki erin onikun mondurumonduru
Erin ni ki n ma ki oun mo onikun mondurumonduru
Mo ji mo ki efon onikun mondurumonduru
Efon ni ki n ma ki oun mo onikun mondurumonduru
Mo ji mo ki ogbogbo agbonrin onikun mondurumonduru
Ogbogbo agbonrin ni ki n ma ki oun mo onikun mondurumonduru
A difa fun Orunmila
Lojo ti won ni aye Ifa o ni dun momo mo
Ifa ni aye mi a dun joyin lo
Ogede o lepo niyo to fi n dun momo
Ile aye mi a dun joyin lo
I woke up and greet the elephant that has a big stomach
The elephant says I should stop greeting him with his big stomach
I woke up and greet the buffalo that has a big stomach
The buffalo says I should stop greeting him with his big stomach
I woke up and greet the deer that has a big stomach
The deer says I should stop greeting him with his big stomach
Cast Ifa for Orunmila
When enemies said his life will not be sweet
Ifa said my life will be sweeter than honey
Banana has neither oil nor salt but it is still sweet
My life will be sweeter than honey
ii. We should appease Ifa with Osan Agbalumo (African Star Apple) for prosperity. After the appeasement, we should partake in the eating of that fruit. Ifa says there is need to eat a lot of fruits especially African Star apple called Osan Agbalumo in Yoruba for its health benefits and wealth. On this, Ifa says:
Ifa kin le da te n se iroke turuye turuye?
Ifa kin le da te n se iruke turuye turuye?
Ifa kin le da te n se ibo kudikudikudi loju opon?
Won ni otura oriko omo owoleji ni
Ifa ni kin le mu tu u
Won ni awon mu eku meji oluwere
Ifa ni ko to Oturaoriko ko loju
Ifa ni osan nikan lo to Oturaoriko ko loju
Ibi awo gbe n musan
Dandan ni ko san fawo
Which odu did you cast that make you waving the iroke beautifully like this
Which odu did you cast that make you waving the irukere beautifully like this
Which odu did you cast that make you waving the ibo beautifully like this
They responded it is Oturaoriko
Ifa said what sacrifice have you made
They responded it is two rats
Ifa said that is not the ebo for Oturaoriko
Ifa said it is osan that should be used as item of sacrifice for Oturaoriko
Wherever we take osan
Life will be better for people
iii. Those who are indebted should make ebo. A lot of people are been depressed because of economic hardship. Ifa says our sorrow will disappear. People have suffered a lot and they will laugh this year. Ifa is advising people against thinking of committing suicide because of financial difficulties. Ifa also says people whose children are living with outsiders because of finance should find a way of bringing home their children. New child in every home will usher in fortunes. On this, Ifa says:
Orere run o run sinu igbo
Ona kan yayaya o ya segan
A difa fun Orunmila
Lojo to n moju ekun sogbere omo
Baba n lo ree bi Alele lomo
Baba n lo ree bi Alele lomo

He gave birth to Alele
He gave birth to Aworan o sun peere
Alele, do not hang yourself
Alele, do not hang yourself
Aworan o sun pere do not hang yourself
The sorrow has turned to joy
iv. There is need to appease our Ori. Ifa says it is one’s Ori that makes one wealthy. People in the position of authority should not be envied. We should understand the concept of destiny and agree with the fact that people get to where they are as predestined. We cannot all be leaders or rulers at the same time. One only needs to pray to one’s Ori for actualization of one’s destiny. On this, Ifa says:
Sonsoro Awo Abata
A difa fun Oloriire Apesin
Sonsoro ma de Awo Abata
Eyin o mo pe olori rere la n pe sin
Sonsoro ma de Awo Abata
Emi lolori rere apesin

Here comes Sonsoro, the Ifa priest in the swampy area
Don’t you know it is one with good head that people serve
Here comes Sonsoro, the Ifa priest in the swampy area
I am the luck person who has many follower
v. Ifa said people should appease Egungun, our ancestors. In the shrines of Egungun, we should put light there for seven days. Also, we should not keep our shrines in darkness this year; we should make sure there is light in the shrines at night. On this, Ifa says:
Erin pele alawo moduru
Otolo pele alawo monduru
A difa fun baba tannatanna
Ti yoo tanna ola sagbala
Awa tanna ola beerebe
Awa tanna ola awa o ku mo
Awa tanna ola beerebe

Bush pig, I greet you with your beautiful skin

vi. Ifa said after difficulties come comfort. After strive, people will be successful in their chosen careers. Ebo should be made with 4 pigeons, honey, gin and money. On this, Ifa says:
Igbeyin a dun
A difa fun Ewuro
To ti n jaye ikoro
Kin lo n gbeyin Ewuro?
Adun! Lo n gbeyin Ewuro
The aftermath will be pleasant
Ifa divination for Ewuro, the bitter leaf
When it was experiencing sorrow
What does the aftermath look like for the bitter-leaf?
Sweetness! That is the aftermath of the bitter leaf
2. VICTORY
i. To overcome external attackers, our leaders should make ebo with a he-goat, head of a leopard, male erinla (traditional cow), male horse, broom. With the ebo, Ifa has promised us victory over any person or group of persons attacking or planning to invade our land. On this Ifa says:
Igun ile abori baara

ii. Ifa says enemies will be seriously destroyed. We should include a poisonous snake head in the sacrifice items; 3 cocks or a he-goat. After the ebo, Akose-Ifa will be prepared with this snake head to make soap for individuals or to be buried at the entrances for communities. On this, Ifa says:
Opati opati

iii. Ifa says people will be congratulated after victory over challenges. People who have premonition that misfortune will befall them should make ebo and appease Sango. Ifa says all the issues that form life challenges and make them panic will be resolved by Sango. On this, Ifa says:
Aayun o yun
Aawa o wa
Aayun o yunse emere regeregerege
A difa fun Onisan
To n kominu oro merin

O paraba kan kokoko ti n be leyinkule Onisan

It threw away a big bending Araba tree behind Onisan’s house
The pregnant woman in the household exclaimed “Ah” and delivered
The sick person in the house exclaimed “Ah” and got healed
The lost member of the family exclaimed “Ah” and found his way back home
All believers
Let us say congratulations to Onisan
All believers
Help us praise Sango on behalf of Onisan
3. PROTECTION
i. Ifa says ebo is needed for protection against death. This is necessary for leaders and parents for them not to lose followers, relatives or children respectively. The items to sacrifice include 3 cocks or 1 he-goat, a roasted tuber of yam, money, palm oil and corn meal. After the sacrifice, the roasted tuber of yam will be buried like a dead. On this, Ifa says:
Afala gbeni mi toritori

Lojo ti won ni ki baba o sinku isu
Ko ma baa sinku eniyan
Oku isu lawa oo sin
Awa o ma ni sinku eniyan

When a cock crow on earth
Its mates echo the voice

ii. Ifa said men are at greater risk of death this year. However, with proper ebo and heeding to the pieces of advice from the wives, men will be escaping dangers. On this, Ifa says:
Eegun-nla-ti-n-saaju-ijo
Ojo-oganjo-ti-n-tagiri-saasaa-lese
Odidimode-ti-n-somo-olojaa-ororo
Awon meteeta ni i se ijogun orun

They went to Alara’s house, they kill Alara
They went to Ajero’s house, they kill Ajero
They went to Owarangun-Aga’s house, they kill Owarangun-Aga
They said it remains Orunmila’s house

My wife! It has escaped my mind! My wife!
But I mentioned to you Odidimode-ti-n-somo-olojaa-ororo

iii. Ifa said people should make ebo for protection. The ebo is also to avert untimely death. It is also to receive blessings. The items of ebo include a he-goat, 6 edible frogs and 6 plantains. On this, Ifa says:
Ota pete inu omi ko mo poorun n pa tode
A difa fun Orikoku
Won ni ko rubo laiku ara re
Ori awo koku awo ko ku mo o
Oturaoriko! Ori awo momo ko
Ori awo koku awo ko ku mo o

Six edible frogs! Awo’s head does not allow misfortune
Awo’s Chest has accepted fortunes
Six big plantains! Awo’s chest has received blessings
iv. Ifa says people should not envy one another. We should be happy with the achievements of each and everybody. We should not because of people’s accomplishments plan evil for them. Ifa said people who are looking for demise of their colleagues or friends should refrain. Also, friends, relatives, politicians or business men who plan to assassinate their colleagues either because of property, money or position should reconsider their plan because, it will backfire. On this, Ifa says:
Ori ni dani ko si onda Ori
Orisa ni pani da ko seni ti pa Orisa da
A difa fun Adigbonnanku omo Ode-eran
Ti ara ile re ko feran re
O ni to ba se bi ise toun ni

4. MARITAL ISSUE
i. Ifa is warning women who are richer than their husband. They should not let the wealth make them arrogant to the husbands so that they will not experience setback. They should be careful not to be too stingy especially to the husband. It is necessary for them to support the husbands financially. Also, the husband should always be consulted before embarking on any capital project or business. On this, Ifa says:
Ogorun-un lemeso owo
Ifun-unfun-un lemeso eluju
Aisi owo la n aoodun-run mo
Kin ni irinwo baba re to ni se
Ewure fori sile o pa lorunkun
A difa fun Osunleyo aya Orunmila
To n lo ree ra ere leru
O ni
Mo kowo roja mo ragi oko
Mo kowo roja mo ra aworan
Aworan o le soro mo rugi oyin
One hundred cowries is a good amount of money
As bees are good in the forest
It is austerity that makes one keep three hundred cowries
Of what value is four hundred cowries which is higher than it?
A goat gets bald knees instead of head
Ifa revelation to Osunleyo, wife of Orunmila
Who was going to buy an image as a servant
She lamented:
I went to the market with money but unfortunate to buy a wooden image
I went to the market with money but unfortunate to buy an image
The wooden image cannot talk, I am doomed
ii. Ifa said men who are capable should not run away from polygamy. Also, women who find it difficult to have come across single men for marriage should consider being in polygamous home provided the husband is capable. Men should try to understand their wives and always try to protect them because, that is their primary responsibility. On this, Ifa says:
Adaba aboju tiuntiun
Orun nigale osu
Aguntan ri mi loja omo re n wo mi
A difa fun Orunmila Opitan
Baba n lo fe Ade-ori omo Olokun
Baba n lo fe Ejigbara Ileke omo Olokun

When he was going to marry Ojiwinjiwin omo iya Ifa omo Olokun
Ade-ori must not see cloudy sky
Ejigbara-ileke must not hear the sound of rain
Ojiwinjiwin omo iya Ifa omo Olokun must not be touched by rain
Ariro, stop the rain for me
You should stop the rain for me
Ariro stop the rain for me
5. CHILD BEARING
Ifa said many barrens will become parents. There is need to make ebo and appease Obatala. This will enhance the fertility of the men and make procreation more possible. On this, Ifa says:
A o fepo si isin isin pon
Ao fiyo si ogede ogede dun
A difa fun Onagbonnagbon
Ti n lo ree toro omo lodo Orisa
Onagbonnagbon baba omo
Bi o si Onagbonnagbon omo o waye
Onagbonnagbon baba omo
We do not add palm oil to pumpkin and the pumpkin is red
We do not add salt to banana and banana is sweet
Ifa revelation to Onagbonnagbon
When going to Orisa for fertility
Onagbonnagbon is responsible for procreation of every child
If not Onagbonnagbon, no child can be produced
Onagbonnagbon is responsible for procreation of every child
6. AUTHORITY OF THE RULERS
Ifa said the Oba (rulers) and Araba/Oluwo should not be going out of the palace or abode when they are supposed to stay in the palace or abode. Staying at home is necessary for them so that their community will not lose some opportunities. Also, they should not use soap whose components include bitter leaf or okro. On this, Ifa says:
Mo yun oko
Mo yun odo
Awo ile Elesie
A difa fun Elesie Owowoleji
Okere fefe! Ibi di ibi maa lo
Do not go to the farm
Do not go to the river
Ifa declaration to Elesie, Owowoleji
Far away! Let misfortune go away.
7. HEALTH
Ifa says we should make ebo to prevent sickness and death. Also, we should always use things that can boost the immunity system. The sick needs to make ebo and use Akose-Ifa whose items include iyere (Piper Guineense). On this, Ifa says:
Orunmila ni o di kaare

They asked Orunmila why the step
He said, healthy condition of pepper does not last long
Healthy condition of eeru, Guinea (Negro) Pepper does not last long as well
Only Iyere’s (Piper Guineense’s) leaves and root possess substance of health benefits
Hope you are now strongly healthy?
Surely, we are healthy
8. EDUCATION/HARDWORK
Ifa advises children to face their studies. The students should be serious with learning, apprentices should face what they are learning and acquire the expected skills. We should not be too impatient to make money. Acquisition of skills should be considered first for this will lead to success in one’s chosen profession. Ifa says people will benefit greatly from foreigners, especially foreigners across the ocean. Everybody should acquire useful skills and knowledge to render the needed services to the foreigners so that the services will not turn out to be scam. Ifa said with honesty and hardworking, people will become wealthy through the connections with foreigners or foreign lands. On this, Ifa says:
Ise lomode kekere fi n kofa
Bo ba dagba tan
A josin, a joro
A jaye Ifa gbindingbindin bi eni to n layin
A difa fun Otura ti yoo towo boko leebo
Mo towo boko mo sinmi

When he grows up
