In our tradition, our ancestors understood that divination keeps them from getting caught slipping. So, we divine at regular intervals to get wisdom around what's coming. Itadogun is held every 17 days. We divine for the community at large.
Here is a summary of what we received. Normally we only have 1 Odu, however I was visiting with another community and so that Odu applies as well.
Odu - Owonrin S'Ogbe
Knowing the difference between vengeance and justice
Esu is prominent in this Odu
Being mindful of jealousy
Chaos leads to Ire (good fortune) or lack of humility blocks Ire
Cool head and calm mind minimize confusion
Head and house cleansing a must
This is the Odu invoked when doing Ebo sometimes
Associated with Esu
Need to follow guidance of parents and develop Iwa Pele (good character)
Don’t lend things out for 16 days
Problems caused by greed
Receive with Gratitude and contentment
Give with no strings attached
Confusion coming in from either Esu or negative forces due your to resistance to growth
