I’m humbled honored and excited to share an intimate piece of my life with you all . Many may find this controversial however I believe and understand the spirit , and how our divine right was stolen from us many years ago to keep us from our power and owning our blueprint. I believe in Honesty, and God the most high. I started my spiritual journey at the age of 9 years old . When I realized I had the gift of second sight. This journey has been hard , amazing , and sublimely beautiful all at the same time . Many know the gypsy in me and that I am highly Intuitive and spiritual . I am thrilled to share with you all that I am fully initiated to Ifa as an Iyanifa (female priestess and student of Ifa ) . This journey has been amazing . Ifa is about destiny and finding your true blue print in life . As a wise babalawo Chief Solagbade Popoola once said Orunmila promises you all the blessings that are to be yours in your destiny , however he never said it’s going to be easy . Up next Awo training . I am so grateful to have amazing mentors in my Oluwo Oba Aala USA of ile Ife , Baba Ifa Sunwon Popoola iya Fadeke Popoola, and Iya Osho Lanke @tatiannatarot Tarot and the wisdom of baba Ika meji @OturaTukaaTemple . I am so thankful to all who have helped support me through this journey. This initiation was overdue and has saved my life in more ways than you can imagine . I start my new journey and transformation in alignment with my destiny at the age of 36. Praise Ifa , Olodumare (God) , the Orisha , my Egun (Ancestors) . All things are possible and all gifts are mine in my destiny. Just an FYI I am still a Christian I do not abandonden the lineage of my ancestors nor the word of God . God is God no matter his name and no one knows the mind of God it’s about destiny, character, and being the best person you called to be . Good morals and virtues cross all good religious faiths and doctrines . I am proud to announce my name to the world the name I should have been born with that was mine from birthright iya ifa Yomi Ori Yomi . Ase may you all be blessed and find your divine purpose . #Ifa #obatala #osun #ori @obaaala ife , #chiefpoopola #tatianna tarot #
