You probably already heard a phrase that says “know yourself and thus you will know the Universe”… This dictation and its variations are known from Ancient Egypt, written at the entrance to the Temple of Luxor - one of the oldest and most famous Temples of Magic and Wisdom of Planet Earth.

It represents one of the great truths of life, serving as a guide to self-knowledge and to the search for our deepest truths: our reality is a reflection of how we are, think and act. For this reason, knowing yourself is the first step to achieving a full and abundant life!

In my last article, “Odus: Life and Destiny in the Cowrie Shell Divination”, I explained what the Odus - the Energies of Destiny - are and how they serve as a way for communication between us and the Orishas. Now, did you know that the Odus are also related to all areas of our lives, governing our choices and the way we live? I’m going to explain to you…

Unravel your soul and transform your life….

In addition to bringing the messages of the Orishas about the events of daily life and the orientations on how to solve the problems of our present and near future, the Odus that are revealed in the Cowrie Shell Divination also relate to our birth and determine striking characteristics in our personality and in the way we relate to people and the Universe.

Called “Birth Odus”, they influence our choices and decisions throughout your life, acting as if they were the signs of a horoscope, forming a complete Orishas Birth Chart. At the same time, in addition to the energy of the Odus itselves, each of them also relates to the Orishas of this energy path and receives influence from them for all aspects of your existence. Thus, two persons with the same regent Odu of their personality or their challenges and inner revolution, for example, will be influenced differently by the joint action of the Odu and the Orisha that manifest on it.

What if there was a way to unravel your soul and get to know the most intimate secrets of your personality?

Have you ever thought about being able to better understand how the people you live with, the place where you live, and your family history interfere and influence your life - and how do you influence theirs?
