TERMINOLOGIES:
Ilé: A Spiritual house or sect of Orisha community consisting of a leader, elders, and their students in Orisa tradition.
Aleyo: An uninitiated person or someone that doesn’t practice Orisa tradition. Also an uninitiated (Uncrowned) devotee of Orisa.
Aborisha: A term that usually means devotee of Orisa. Can include Aleyos that have Warrior Orishas: Esu Elegba, and Ogun, Ochosi icon. Some debate whether an Aleyo can be called Aborisa.
Egbe: Means Group. Diff from the term “Egbe Orun” which means one’s soul group or heavenly mates.
Lineage: In the Orisha communities, this means the spiritual lineage from where your own Ile of elders began. One’s spiritual Ancestry in Orisa based on who crowned the person’s Orisa.
Godparent: Your spiritual mentor in Orisa tradition. Most often it’s the person that crowded your Orisa and who you receive Orisa from, get readings and cleansings from. This applies to Ifa as well (Oluwo). “Godparent is more of a diaspora term to describe your main spiritual teacher.
Isésé: Traditional Orisa practice from Nigeria.
Diaspora: Afro Latino, Caribbean, and Afro American Orisa traditions.
Elekes: CONSECRATED Orisa beaded necklaces received in an in person ceremony for protection.
Hand of Ifa: Icofa (females), Awo Faca (males) a ceremony officiated by Ifa Priests (Iyanifas and Babalawos) that gives a person one hand of Orunmila’s mystery for destiny, protection, and devotee-ship.

"The magic happens at the research level". I love this so much. Wonderful video
To be honest, all this hierarchy and politics talk gets on my last nerve, 🙄but this tends to be a common question, I felt it’s best to answer in a video for better understanding. My least favorite topic to talk about on this channel.
It’s not that Orisa initiation will take 17 years like me. I actually left Orisa tradition for a few years in 2007, so that was also my delay.
BUT... build a bond with your Ancestors and prepare for when it’s meant for you. Don’t let people rush you because of the business aspect of it. When it’s time, you’ll have what and who you need to have initiation done.
Yea, the thirst is real disgusting 😒
I am new to IFA and this definitely helped me. I am sorry that some people have to be rude for no reason. Your channel has definitely blessed be.
How much do you charge for a reading or how much do you charge for defeating of the ancestors?
what is the best way to get started in learning about orisha/yuroba religion/tradition?
Mo dupe🙏🏽
Alaafia Iya, Ore Yeye Ooo. Thank you for this. You are helping so many people with your basic breakdown of Ifa. You are a better teacher than you think.
this video makes to much sense so the whole time me sitting here im a just a aleyo figuring out what path I want to go down 🖤
You are born teacher
Agreed!
ORUNMILA Aboru! Orunmila Aboye! Orunmila Abosise!! Orunmila Elerin Ipin! Beautiful video and thank you for taking the time to share your precious journey with the UA-cam Community. May Orunmila and Oshun bless you with you consistent victory that will give you the calibration that will invoke compassion, humility, respect, self love and iwe pele. Ase
Now, in Issese tradition the equivalent to the word "Crown," as use in Santeria/Lukumi tradition. The word in Yoruba is Adosu so you are Adosu Osun meaning you are fully initiated to Osun. We do not need to use lucumi terms if we are following Issese tradition with all respect. May Orunmila always bless you Ase OOo
I just really appreciate you sorting all this out for us. It’s very helpful, you charts are super helpful! 🙏🏾👏🏽🙏🏾

This video Is very informative for anyone who is interested in Orisha practice. She does a good job in reiterating what is Orisha Lukumi. She also explains a little on Isese Ifa practices.
Thank you, Adunola, for the information. I won’t lie, that was a lot to take in. But I’m glad that I will have this reference to come back to throughout my journey. I also am happy I can now self-identify as an Aleyo.
ua-cam.com/video/nozwJmQeEfw/v-deo.html
Thank you for this information🙏❣️💖
I manifested this video! I’ve been saying for the past week or two that I want a video clarifying this information and I want it specifically from you. THANK YOU for your work
Asé 💫
ua-cam.com/video/nozwJmQeEfw/v-deo.html
Thanks you for your honesty. I had 1 reading and was told I was ready for initiation. I was like what, I'm not ready for that. It's been 2yrs since I've begun my African spirituality, and I now know, I'm still not ready. Thanks for your awesome wisdom.
I had a reading and was told the same..smh
It’s not that it will take 17 years like me. I actually left Orisa tradition for a few years in 2007, so that was also my delay.
BUT... build a bond with your Ancestors and prepare when it’s meant for you. Don’t let people rush you because of the business aspect of it. When it’s time, you’ll have what and who you need to have initiation done.
My reading said take your hand quickly! 90 days after my first reading i took my hand.

Thank you for this wonderful explanation ❤️
ua-cam.com/video/nozwJmQeEfw/v-deo.html
I love how you explain everything - my fave part is when you say that you’ll stay in your lane but still honored your experience and knowledge on the santo lavado topic and gave a bit of info but with respect. I subscribed.
🥰 TU for explaining this, since I’ve came out of a coma, this word Orisha is everywhere I view,listen,or written directly in my eye sight🤔 ! I’ve spoken to a family member of something is going to happen and it did. I’ve spoken to a friend something is coming for them and it happen.🤪 Crazy this is happen my family & friends said I’m weird ❗️ I tried to stay quiet and not think of why this is happening to me🥺😕. I’ve started to just learn who or what the levels of this Orisha is and you’ve now given a break down.I’m now a subscriber and will possibly continue learning of this. ❣️
Thank you.....this is perfect explanation of the differences between Isese tradition and other traditions.....and explaning the different levels
Grandrising Beloved absolutely spot on thanks you Ase'o Empress Yemoja
I just found this video. Thank you for this. I was very informative. You explained everything that I was wondering.

Very informative 🙏🏼
You are very Beautiful
Blessings to you and your family ❤️
Thank You. I'm grateful for this! I Love The Orish's!!!
firstly thank you for the information and help. I love watching you UA-cam and it always helps. I have been having a hard time trying to connect with my spirituality and my ancestors for a while and I have always wanted to ask them for help and guidance but whenever I reach out to someone for assistance with my spirituality I seem to run into people who use it as a weapon rather than something that is meant to help guide others. I have been told that the things that I experience and the dreams that I have or things that I hear are all just my imagination and that I am just hearing my own thought but others come to me and demand that I need to do this and that and that they have better spiritual gifts than me . spirituality isn't a competition to me it’s something that I use to better myself and to seek guidance and understanding but lately the people that I try to go to for spiritual help have become more negative and sometime I feel that they are not people I should trust. they try to make me fear the spirits and try to make me feel that bad things are always going to happen to me at first, I used to believe it, but things haven't been making since. I am an African American and I have roots in the Congo where my ancestors are from, although I don't try to make it all about race I do get a bit hurt when my friends who are white and involved in African spirituality try to make spirituality a competition and try to use it to hurt rather than to help, I just need proper guidance and I want to be closer to my ancestors and my guiding spirits but I don't want it to be tainted by people personal agendas anymore.
🔥🔥🔥🖤❤️💚🕊️🤘🏿 Huwa HOTEP,... A'SE.
Don't laugh... I had to watch this twice. Lol. It was so intricate and so much information. Thank you for sharing and teaching. I've been binge watching your videos for a few days now and I feel so much more informed. Thank you and Ashe.
Thanks. You cleared questions up for me. Would like to learn more.
Aboru Aboye Abosise Iya 🙏🏾💛. Thank you for sharing. This was a wonderful wealth of knowledge. I recently learned that Apetibi is also a married Wife of a Babalawo.
Agbo Ato. Asé! This is true! 💫Í forgot to clarify that. Thank you!
How does someone dislikes a video like this? She did really good job breaking that down like always.
You are one of the best to explain this tradition, I refer others to your page when they wanna know more. My daughter is very interested and will just get her head marked soon so as not to rush her into anything else.
This is a great video and thank you. Now I see why my God Mother said to be patient.
"It differs from tradition to tradition."
Me: "Thank you for this, because so many in the religion forget this. There are lots of differences... Regla de la Ifa, Regla de la Orisha, Santeria, Balo and these are from the Cuban versions alone... I imagine that Nigeria got even more versions."
The way I see it as, Aleyo is Pre-K. It introduces you to the world and it is very important. We are born as Aleyo. 😎That's what my Balo uncles tell me and it is from here you find out your abilities and spirits, because it is where you start. It takes me long time to go through the paths as well, even though I had been told by so many I have the abilities and gifts to be a Iyalawo. I always see myself as teacher whiling to be a student and learn more, because there is so much to learn. Balo is something practiced by both sides of the family, ancestor knowledge is very important to know which path to take and how to practice. I tend to stay away from Balo due to the blood rituals, but I acknowledge and respect it, because it is part of my ancestors'. I am glad you mention the importance of ancestors and knowing your heritages.
Thank you for your whole video really. This has helped answer so many of the questions. I'm going to bookmark this for further study.
Youre so naturally beautiful 😍 amazing many blessings ♥️
This was great and it helped me alot to understand what my friend was into and gained in a very simplistic way. Thank you for taking the time to teach. You definitely great at it.

@@AdunolatheOracle Awesome. Im in Houston but how do I find them and contact them?
@@AdunolatheOracle I live in the "Bible Belt" South so often African traditions are seen as demonic or against Jesus. I know of a few Houses but they're either Santeria or non-traditional. I don't feel a connection with either. So how would I go about finding a traditional Ifa house? Are there certain things I should look for to know if they're legit?
@@lacheredenton5736 your ancestors will guide you if it is your path. Go within. You have all the knowledge you need.
I was training with a heavyweight boxer for almost two years before he revealed to me that he does Ifa divination. Come to find out he bought a house 10 minutes away from me. When you're ready it will definitely find you!
the Nigerian tradition is quite vast and diverse. i am Ibo and i have no idea how these applies to my tradition. thank you tho, I'm sure i will return to this video when I learn.

@chidera check out the medicine shell on youtube
@@DP-oi9nd I already do. Thank you
thank you for sharing💖unexplainable things happened to me Tuesday...may i please speak to you about my experience please?
The fact that I just clicked on this video without even doing my usual check up on the channel 😭 I didn't know you have a UA-cam channel, somehow I missed that on your IG
I have some many questions, I'll just wait to do the phone consultation.
"Aleyo" is actually "Àlejò", which means guest, visitor or strangers, in Yoruba language! Hope that's what you have in mind for "Aleyo". I think the "j", was taken out for diction differences! Well done for the information!
Yeah, i thought so too. In Spanish, 'j' is sometimes substituted for the English 'y' or 'h'.
Aleyo is a Y because in Spanish J makes an H sound.
very pretty woman
Love your content Queen! So people can be called to receive ellekes or the “Charged beaded necklaces” but not be initiated at the time or even called to initiate?
Yes, absolutely
Thank you so much truly Queen for you research and intelligence! Between helping me to understand the levels within the system of African spirituality you have also helped explain the places of fasting and prayer within the system. With those topics as well as the position of ellekes, I was told numerous contradictory things and felt discouraged of sorts from continuing to study. Thanks to you I have a better and more loving interpretation of those concepts. Thank you again!
When do you think you will be open to becoming a God parent/ Mentor ?
Very soon. Still training. My teaching focus now is Spiritual Development.
I would love to be under you. I’m just starting out but the dreams I have. And the things Spirit tells me to do is bananas but I still want to move right. I come from childhood of Hebrew, recently from Christian, and I am a prophet in that language. Kind of my back ground and now learning about Our Spirituality
@@beautifullycreated2.086 You are always welcome to start with the Patreon with me, and attending any events I have.
Will do, thank you so much Queen
I’d love to follow you
I’m studying
I now live in Atlanta and I grew up in Savannah ga right next to the African village
I can’t believe I waited so long. Well I know
I saw my friends dad have a money head and it spoked me
Now I’ll do anything no matter how it looks to the outsider

Please contact me I’ve been following you and hope to be your Friend/ sister and what ever els spirit says
I’m considering get my ancestory done so I can no my trueeeeee ethnicity or atleast where my ancestors originally lived . I feel it’s appropriate Americans have no ideas where we belong I see we are the lost ones like I want to connect but how can u connect when u don’t really know who u r . I kno I shouldn’t do anything til I kno . But I do gravitate to you I always end up on your videos I feel your trust worthy . Once I can do the dna test I wanna connect with you
(1) How do we find a legitimate Orisha teacher? wish u would do a video on that
(2) how to tell the legitimacy of people who do readings under the Orisha spiritual system?
(3) cost for legitimate readings?
(4) can the Orisha Readings be done here in the states w/o certain divine tools, like killing of chicken etc.,
(5) The cost involved, not including ur trip & accommodations to Nigeria for ur 1st level go to Nigeria plus ur level, est...
(6) is Yoruba the only well known traditional Orisha system in Nigeria, or are there other systems like in the Igbo people of Nigeria, do they have their own spiritual system, if so what is it called
(7) Are there other African countries with a similar belief system
Sorry, I have always been interested in some form of the Orisha system but have not came across trustworthy people who just took my money, but I still crave whatever is destined for me to know, I hope that u can be of assistance if nothing but answering these questions, would be great, I will send u a gift when I get paid, you are a jewel no doubt and I appreciate u and ur teachings, blessings Queen, Ase’❤️
1. I usually answer those types of questions in the private phone call appointment consultations, because honestly, it’s not really a one size fits all answer to those questions. Why?
It’s not just about finding a legitimate teacher but finding a teacher who you are COMPATIBLE with that will actually teach you make you feel included and treat you fairly.
2. I discuss in the Patreon group. You will know by the tools they use. Also have a video here on UA-cam call the African spirituality PopQuiz in which it answers that question. ua-cam.com/video/6zH6QOP98HU/v-deo.html
3 Cost of spiritual work and ceremonies in the tradition vary from Elder to Elder kind of like going to get your hair done and everyone charges their own fees. It also depends on the ingredients and even animals that you may need and the location and how much those animals and ingredients cost to attain to do work for a person. Once again this will vary from Ilé to Ile.
4. Absolutely
5. Costs always vary depending on the Ilé and which Orisa is being given and how complicated that ceremony will be.
6. Absolutely not there are many more thousands more. Need to do a video on that.
7. Absolutely
Stay tuned and feel free to book a chat if ever needed.

Whew! I have so many questions😑
Can you please share your thoughts on people initiating with a god family over seas in Cuba or Nigeria and coming back to the states to do their iyawo year and such without the presence of their god parents? Isn't the point of crowning to become a priest in training? How can you be trained when you have to take a flight to visit your elders and can hardly spend time with them?
This question is real!
As there any way we can get a picture of this paper your are using please?
I’ll put it up soon. Kay is helping me make a better diagram.
Please I would really like to schedule a reading.
I found the information to request a phone or zoom meeting. Thank you😊
Peace, the links are for advice consultations, but I’ll make readings available on there soon.
Thank you
