NOT FOR YOURUBA IFA ISESE

I was so excited to see this book but it really fell flat in many areas. Most important to denote that there are many children of Ogun or devotees who will easily be able to tell that this does not resonate for them unless you practice Afro Caribbean variations of Spirituality. That’s who this book is really written for. Especially with the author last name being Silva. There is a lot of generic information about Alaafin Ogun and then there is some specific info shared but again it does not align with Youruba Igbo Isese practice and school of thought for Ogun. For instance this book says oguns colors are red and black. However within IFA we know baba Ogun by greens (brown) black. Also this book gives advice that you might be able to determine if Ogun is your baba by personality traits and that is spiritually irresponsible in that a qualified babalawo or Iyanifa should perform divination to determine the Orisa who has your head. This book gives enough info to make one dangerous with a sort of skewed interpretation of generic basic facts around this Orisha but not all are correct and some statements should be qualified with additional supporting disclaimers or statements so that someone learning won’t make grave mistakes to offend Spirit. I regret this purchase and forced through listening to much of it.

Terrible narration

Beautiful stories of Ogun but was extremely painful to listen through the voice of the narrator. Spirit of this powerful deity was lost. Really not sure who thought this was a good fit at all.
