Description
The Yoruba 16 Oracle Geomancy is a simplified system of divination for those seeking guidance. This 16-sign system is an adaptation of the author's initial practice of tossing obi (coconuts) at 16, expanded with insights from the cowrie (dilogun) and Ifa systems. It provides a straightforward 'yes' or 'no' questioning system, as well as a more elaborate binary extension, to support communication and answer questions. This system can be used with four circular coconut shells, four coins, or four cowrie shells, all of the same type, shape, and orientation. The objects are read from bottom to top, and right to left. The system is designed to be simple and accessible, allowing individuals to tap into their intuition and devotion to forge a relationship with the divinities they seek to communicate with. The Yoruba system of divination is a rich and ancient tradition, with a history spanning over 8,000 years. This book provides a practical guide to this system, including an invocation prayer to call upon the divinities and a clear explanation of the system's requirements.
