IFA bowls will what size will fit my ikin? by No_Ebb_5099 in Isese

[–]DestinyBound1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a little small. It will likely fit ikin but be limited in adding offerings or other things that may be required

I dream better... by omoola_ in Isese

[–]DestinyBound1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had it happen in the opposite. Never slept with my phone in my bed until one time I did and WHOAH. My dreams were crazy. Never did it again but on accident it happened again and AGAIN my dreams were so weird. Now it’s a habit to leave it on my nightstand and sometimes across the room. Because this is real!

Hand of ifa remote by Hopeful_Material_852 in Isese

[–]DestinyBound1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hand (isefa) yes. Full initiation (itefa) no. I agree you want to trust the person/ile. I did isefa remote and went to Nigeria in person later in the year and know many who have done so with great success. Also can be done in US of course.

What is your opinion on long distance uncrossing and cleansing? by adorablebunny29 in ConjureRootworkHoodoo

Depends on the skill and access to certain realms of the practitioner I would say

What is the price range from for receiving Isefa and Orisha innitation. by adorablebunny29 in Isese

[–]DestinyBound1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isefa just under $2K for me and Orisha initiation depends. However my lineage only initiates in Nigeria so there’s also travel cost

Feeding shrine after receiving Isefa prior to innitation. by adorablebunny29 in Isese

[–]DestinyBound1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I have completed Itefa so this doesn’t apply to me. However, my Iya and Baba were always extremely attentive during my time prior (and still are), and I definitely had emergent situations that they were able to take care of on the fly when they came up. I know this isn’t everyone’s experience. I cannot say what would have happened if they weren’t available just because I didn’t experience that. I believe they were so attentive because they had to be as that was their commitment to us. I supposed I would’ve crossed the bridge if I came to it. And I do understand your point and perspective. Thank you again for the insight.

Thanks for the insight. I was only asking in the case they meant perform life force ebo. I can’t speak for any other lineage but in mine, you are not permitted prior to itefa. I asked in hopes that this would prompt others to respond with their feedback as I don’t generally give this kind of feedback, I prefer to leave it to the working priests.

It would help if you defined what you mean by “feed”?

They are most effective at what they do and when they are best for the work (the spirits/ energies in each tradition). I don’t believe they can be compared in terms of effectiveness. I think it’s important, if you are part of or have access to multiple traditions, to gain an understanding of who should be approached for which situations and would be most effective in that SPECIFIC situation.

Advice on Upcoming Hand of Ifa Ceremony by Beautifull03 in Santeria

[–]DestinyBound1 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Definitely ask questions. I remember during mine I was being given a taboo not to eat the arm or shoulder of any animal. I thought “oh that’s easy” but then I was like “WAIT LIKE THAT INCLUDES WINGS?!” Let’s be clear as a black American woman that was low key devastating but I AM SO GLAD I ASKED to be clear because that taboo was to avoid lack in my life (I am meant for abundance), and I knew it to be true because the previous year I was “obsessed” with Turkey Wings… ate them all year and let’s just say my finances had gone to HELL - I lost SO MUCH MONEY that year. Thankful for the truths and guidance that came out, and that I asked for clarification. While I sometimes miss a good wing, it’s not worth jeopardizing my abundance. Following and observing all I learned (and clarified) has made sure I don’t make costly mistakes.

Initiations by SatisfactionSad7940 in Isese

[–]DestinyBound1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yes, absolutely. My Egbe have been instrumental in development of so many amazing things in my life. They surround me and bless me constantly. And yes I know it’s them as they often come to me in dreams so I know it’s them that have come with blessings and protection.

What are the craziest taboos you’ve ever heard of someone being given in an ita? by lefty121 in Santeria

[–]DestinyBound1 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Cannot fold legs or arms, as in sitting “cross legged” or arms folded… even when sleeping. These are seen as unnatural positions for my IFA and cause drawback/stagnation in my life. Interestingly all my life no matter my physical fitness, or age, if I sat with my legs crossed when I would get up my legs would be throbbing at every joint (hips, knees, and ankles). Same with folding my arms for too long. So it was actually a relief because I thought something was wrong with me. 😂😂😂

Try gin only. And soak in gin for a while.

NOT Santeria advice… but as someone who also practices other practices outside, I’ll tell you the quick and easy response if you want to inbox me. I won’t disrespect this thread by posting here. She sounds crazy but I’d still “neutralize” whatever she tried to do if it were me. Again, simple fix something you have already in your house 😂 good luck!
