Together, we’ll explore not just the beauty of Ifá but its raw truths, complexities, and the sometimes uncomfortable realities that come with aligning with its teachings. This is where spiritual wisdom meets critical inquiry, honoring the full spectrum of Ifá’s essence. Let’s dive deep, leaving no stone unturned.
