The front of Ifa tray should listen
The back side of Ifa tray show listen
The right side of Ifa tray
The all-knowing on the left
The center of Ifa tray
The center of heaven
Homage to the dawn of the day
Homage to the setting of the sun
I pay homage to Ifa the
owner of the Sea, the one who changes all matters to joy
Orunmila who has
Agbonniregun’s body
Bara Igesi Bara petu ,The
one who repair heads
The mighty one who
changes the death date
The one who is potent than medicine
The one who repairs the
bad destiny
The wisdom of the world
The historian of Ife
The witness of destiny
Second to Olodumare( God)
He’s enough to live
with
The unfathomable
One who teaches his devotees in dream
One who offer one
guidance like one’s blood relation
The one whose
predictions come to past swiftly
Dont let your vision
power be blindfolded
Do not make your
revelation in deceitful voice
Do not predict good message, when indeed the
message is evil
Do not predict evil message, when indeed the
message is good
Do not make your revelation in deceitful voice
Reveal the truth the way it is.
The Awo can then proceed to make the Ifa consultation
proper.
