  • I laid upon my bed on my back, the ear phone pugged into my computer, listening to Lana del Rey, one of my favorite artist. A playlist with some of my favorite music by her hauntingly appealing voice serenades me. […]

    • Hello Ma’am Obara, as i read this post i could understand why you poured this out and how you feel. This post is about you so I’ll not try contrasting with myself so as not to make light of your emotions put into this post.

      I’ll say your not having friends is a defense/safety mechanism written into your contract to enable you keep ascending and fulfilling your duties.

      But don’t worry much, you have not only students but people that love you ok? I will keep praying for you and also say that in me you have a friend and my Ori will not agree for me to betray your friendship, i promise.

      Remain blessed and keep being you, the universe will surprise you joyfully. Ase!!!

  • No one can claim to be an expert on life, we can certainly testify to our experience here, but to say we “know it all” would be a fallacy. Yes, this plane, this earth realm with all its joys and sorrows, is a […]

    • This post made me heave a relieving sigh and i felt a certain kind of peacefulness within me that all will not just be well, but that it is well.

      The same way your writing for us to read is therapeutic to you is the way I feel when i read your blog.

      Please don’t get tired. I too wish more people would participate because there are more teachings in your response to comments.

      Remain blessed Ma’am and Lil’Obara too.

  • Some years ago I had been observing some wasps at my bedroom window. There were lots of windows in my room and I did not use curtains, so I loved to sit by my bed at the windows and stare out into the nothingness […]

    • Great lesson as always Ma’am. If i see a wasp around not that i would want one around though, but do i give it a taste of baygon? Lol…

      Thank you as always Ma’am Obara.

    I greet you all in the Yoruba traditional initiates greeting, from the Odu Ifa Ogunda Meji, Aboru Aboye Abosise.

    • Hi Ms. Obara,
      Pls are you in nigeria or jamaica. i want to know if i can see you personally.

    • The beauty about these stories CharMD is that, they are given when a particular ODU comes out for the person seeking divination, in this case OWONRIN/OGBE came out, The story is told in this way relating to the person sitting before the babalawo. The story has a message about what is happening to the person. So the tale is to tell her that she is powerful but she has enemies who wants to tear her down, they are jealous of her because they have tried her in many ways, and she is still pushing forward, but they are still after her. However if she do her sacrifice, the deities will now face the wicked and they will back off or something will happen to them, like how dog lost his voice. This is why the story is told about dog in relation to what is happening to the person inquiring about their life. As for dog knowing her secrets, I now look at my dogs differently of course, lol

    Yesterday morning I sprung from my bed, turned on my computer and began to write. I told you all and everything that has been on my mind recently and even took you through some of my reflections. Imagine how I […]

    • Curious did he ever find someone to settle down with.

    • There’s so much to read on your blog Ma’am. As much as I’ve read i still find one new post and get more confirmation of my understanding.

      So misfortunes in relationships can be due to Egbe. I can beat my chest and say I’m a nice guy although I’m not infallible, but to toot my horn a lil I’m a dream guy o! I know myself that much. But I’ve had the worst from women i must say. To the point that i ask why why why what am i doing wrong, or am i too cool or meek or just too nice? I must find out if Egbe has something to do with this or it’s something else(my path running its course).

      You teach Ma’am, you just do and it seems effortless but i know it isn’t so.

      Blessed be Ma’am Obara, you’re a gift.

      • Ase Kay, many say thanks, but there are some I feel more than others.
        Listen up! If you are born to be BIG person, you WILL have challenges from women. There is a reason, but I cannot tell. Son you will know, and you will smile inwardly albeit, but smile nevertheless. Endure, a new beginning awaits you my friend. If they hurt you, take it like a man, and know that you have just earned a stripe. Wisdom and Facts dear boy!
        Love and Light to you Kay. up, up and to the top you go. Endure!

    Hi everyone. Here is the second part of my fascinating discussion with Oladayo about Egbe (here is a link to part one). I pondered very hard about doing another post on this even though I had promised, and the r […]

    • How do I get in contact with you?

    Whenever I write a post it it comes from somewhere deep within. I always write my truth, and I try to do it as tastefully and with some humor. Life is challenging enough for us to be too serious about it, humor […]

  • There are so many mysteries here in this earth realm and about our lives in which we live. Many of us have no idea of water people or other dimensions or other realities. Many of us are so caught up with trying to […]

    • Thank you for sharing this post. From the bottom of my heart thank you You have just solved a childhood mystery of mine. When I was a little girl, my mom told me a story of a girl who went missing in the Rio Grande River in Jamaica. There had been a storm which made the river muddy and rough with dark waters. She went by the family farm, which was across the river, with her dad to check on the animals and ensure they were safe. On their way back, her dad had instructed her to hold on to his hand and keep holding no matter how rough the water got. They were in the middle of the water and all of a sudden, her dad didn’t feel her holding him anymore. They searched for her body for days, months even and nothing surfaced. Until this day, with the exception of her two kids, one would believe the story is a myth. She totally disappeared without a trace. You know how bodies float after being underwater for some time right? Not this one! I’ve always felt connected to this story and one night I dreamed that she was sucked into a hole underwater. I laughed at the dream and thought I was just a child with an idle mind. I’m a very curious individual (mi faas bad) so maybe that was Osun feeding my curiosity. Based on the characteristics you’ve mentioned above, I’m definitely of water. Can you explain why we’re plagued with boils sometimes? It’s been a while since I’ve seen any but they used to bother me when I was younger. I’ve always had a connection to any form of fresh water body. I don’t like the sea as much.

      • Wow this story is true around the world, the river takes away its people whenever it feels like. She did not die she just went home. As to the boils, I will write another post on water and if I am moved to explain it I will. Thanks so much for sharing

    • Hi Obaf

    • Hi Obara Meji, I am new to this Embracing Spirituality, but I must say I am connected to know more about my spirituality and how I can enhance and help myself. Am also curious to know if am a water person. I really want to learn how to be spiritually knowledgable. I wish I can rely on you for help and enlightenment.

      Greetings and stay blessed
      Kester

    • This short story about Water People, I really belive it to the core, but I really want to know more about me, my past, present and future in relations to the river/water. Please also let me know if this is the right sight to communicate. thanks

  • It doesn’t work.

    • Go to the Catholic Church, tell them
      You want to do mass for your dad, I’m not sure if this is the correct terminology. I think you buy a card for whatever money from
      Them, he is now added to a list of the dearly departed. I believe they will also make you light a candle for him, but what happens with this list is that at a certain time they will now pray for these ones and call their names, he will be included.
      Another way to assist him is to set a white candle for him and call his name, pray while telling him to go on in peace. You may dream him after this telling you bye or that he is going on a trip. Say bye o, don’t go with him.
      It is possible that he has refused to go on. And if so then it is not good, you don’t want him being an earth bound spirit. The candle should be a white seven damy one in the glass, place a clear glass of water beside it. Let me know how the candle burn, if it breaks or burn black or clean. If it burns clean then good, if otherwise let me know.

    • Lion, PLEASE TO READ WITH SENSE BEFORE YUH COMMENT!

    • “However, using Sage as a banishing agent can have an adverse effect on the user, where in which a bad spirit might be in the home, and the person using Sage not understanding what he/she is doing, can be affected because of the two opposing forces that are in the same space at he same time. The Sage, trying to bring light in to a dark space, and the Malevolent energy, resisting the light to come through. The physical effect of this can be a headache for the person(s) involved, an indescribable feeling that overwhelms the physical body like fainting or passing out (which you may attribute to the smoke, but this isn’t so), lunacy or temporary malaise, unwanted spirit attachment and then some. Light and dark can not be in the same room at the same time. “

      This is what I wrote, read and read and read and read again until yuh get it
