IFA SACRED GEOMETRY
Sacred Geometry is a complex and sophisticated science that requires objective study and subjective meditation. The most crucial shape in understanding possession by Ela is the tetrahedron. If you turn a sphere into a three-sided pyramid with the base at 19.5 degrees below the equator and the apex at the North Pole, the result should be a tetrahedron.

| Ifa Tetrahedron Points |
A tetrahedron belongs to the polyhedron family. Based on the edges and angles, tetrahedrons can be regular or irregular. The word ‘tetrahedron’ came from the Greek word ‘tetráedron’, meaning ‘triangle-based pyramid.’ ‘Tetrás’ means ‘four’, and ‘hédra’ means ‘seat’. A regular tetrahedron is a three-dimensional shape with four faces, six edges, and four vertices. All the faces are equilateral triangles. One of its faces is its base. The other three faces form the pyramid.
To open portals, place the second three-sided pyramid inside a sphere with the base at 19.5 degrees above the equator and the apex at the South Pole. It is the root structure of conception from atoms to Stars. The invisible configuration of the pyramids serves as a gyroscope that stabilizes the sphere, maintains its shape and creates portals between the visible and the hidden realms of conception.
In Ifa, these portals or Odu means womb. Each point where the pyramid makes contact with the circumference of the sphere is a portal for Odu, which is the point of entry for light from the Invisible realm into the Visible Realm (Orun and Aye, heaven and earth). In Ifa, these portals or Odu means womb. Each point where the pyramid makes contact with the
Atum is light, the eternal source of energy, and the everlasting dispenser of life. Once power is dispenced, unending cosmic laws manage the supply. The space existence is within infinite energy. It is energy from which life issues, so it cannot stop or be prone to destruction. It is contained and bound together by a timeless life force. The cosmos dispenses this life to all things within it. The universe is the image of Atum; all goodness because it is also good.

The top tetrahedron and bottom pyramid counter-rotate in 255 of the basis of energy patterns meaning they rotate in opposite directions to create gravity. The blueprint called Eji Ogbe is anti-gravitational because both pyramids rotate in the same direction eliminating polar tension. This pattern is one of the top secrets of alchemy.
Once gravity is in motion, the structural integrity of the shape starts to degenerate through the natural cycle of decay. The speed and trajectory of this decay are down to the introduction of energy between the visible and invisible realms. Ifa calls this energy ase, generated by ala or the light of consciousness. Ase enters a spherical energy pattern at the place where the unseen structural pyramids touch the circumference of the sphere.
ODU PORTALS TETRAHEDRON POINTS
There are eight such points on any sphere, and these points or portals can be opened or closed. Ifa uses a divination system called Dafa, consisting of two quadra-grams, meaning two vertical lines of four components. Each component of the quadra-gram is either a single vertical line or a double vertical line.

The quadra-grams are a two-dimensional representation of the sphere with the double pyramid as support. Each mark of Dafa represents one of the eight places where the two pyramids touch the sphere circumference. If the portal is open, one line is the indicator, and two lines are the indicators if the gateway is closed.
One quadra-gram has sixteen variations of single and double lines. Two guardra-grams together have 16 x 16 variations or 256 combinations. The interaction between the visible and the invisible universe is the 256 variations map the Odus of Ifa. When all eight portals open, you have pure light. And when all eight gateway close, you have a black hole that absorbs light but does not project away from itself.

In atoms, these portals are opened and closed in response to the gravitational pull of other atomic structures. In planets, these portals are opened and closed in response to the gravitational pull from the sun, the moon and the planets. The original purpose of astrology Gede in Ifa was to mark the time and location of the opening and closing of these portals.
The importance of marking these changes is that when all the portals are open, we have access to Ala, which provides access to possession by Ela. There is an Ifa book called Faith of Our Fathers by Maurice Moupois. The book is about an interview with the late Awo Gedegbe, the diviner for the last four Kings of Dahomey. Unfortunately, the book is out of print and written in French.
IFA ODU BINARY
In the book, Awo Gedegbe says the Spirit of Light or Ela, descends to our world during solstices and the equinox every 91 days. During these events, the Spirit of Ela descends from Orun (heaven) to earth (aye). At certain sacred spots, the spirit of Ela becomes visible, and Awo Gedegbe describes a traditional Ifa ritual where the Spirit of Ela, when invoked, becomes manifest and then is transformed into the ase or spiritual energy needed to generate good fortune for the next 91-day cycle.

The implication of this ritual is profound. It means Ela, as the manifestation of pure unformed consciousness, can be moulded by human consciousness. That means human consciousness is a participant in the ability to create. In simple terms, the invocation of Ela bestowed humans with the ability to transform physical reality. Meaning the power of collective prayer creates the world we live in. Where there is no communal prayer, the world comes into Being through unconscious agreement.
The unconsciousness agreement among most people living in the West is that we are powerless victims who cannot transform the status quo. It is the perfect mindset to allow a small group of people to use the secret of creativity to benefit the few.
The ritual of Ifa initiation enables the initiates access to be possessed by the Spirit of Ela by design. On a symbolic level, it is made possible by invoking the Meji Odu of Dafa. That means the initiator invokes all the symbolic patterns of the tetrahedron in which the openings in the top and bottom pyramids mirror each other.

According to the literature on Ifa power patterns, the top and bottom pyramids mirror each other, known as Meji (twice). After the invocation of the Meji Odu is complete, the initiator invokes the Odu Ose’tura. The purpose of this invocation is to have the Odu Meji copulate inside the head of the initiate generating all 256 variations of the energy patterns of creation.
IFA, ALGEBRA AND COMPUTER SCIENCE
Ifa is an ancient binary computer system that, in some inexplicable way, has successfully linked the probability of numbers with the complexities of the human condition and the ever-complex flux of events. Ifa is based on the 8-bit pattern with its eight-piece divination chain, 16 major Odu (chapters) and 256 Odu.

| Ifa Divination Structures |
Over 12,000 years ago, indigenous Africans developed Binary-based Oracle Divination Systems, based on the square of 16=16x16=256 = 2^8 corresponding to the vertices of an 8-dimensional hypercube and to the binary 2-choice Clifford algebra C1(8) and so to related ones such as C1(8)xC1(8) = C1(16). Since the number of sub-hypercubes in an 8-dimensional hypercube is 6,561 =81x81=3^8, the Ifa Divination Systems has N=8 ternary 3-structures and binary 2-structure.
In biological terms, this invocation unlocks the memory of the development of our fetus. This development mirrors the energy patterns found throughout nature. When Ifa initiates the experience of this memory, called Elerin Ipin (witness to creation). Simply put, this memory is an experiential understanding of life, death, transformation and rebirth cycles as they replicate through generation and regeneration.

This experience gives the Ifa initiate the vision to interpret the symbolic meaning of Ifa oral scripture. Each of these patterns contains an inherent lesson necessary to move consciousness to the next stage of development. The ability to use these patterns as medicine to treat physical, emotional and spiritual challenges, was established on the capacity of the Ifa initiate to go into possession of each of these patterns.
After initiation, the method of clarifying the meaning of each pattern is to mark the pattern on a therapy called iyerosun, then invoke the pattern on the mark and then ingest the medicine. It allows the student of Ifa to spend time in possession of each energy pattern. Attaining this skill makes an Ifa initiate either Babalawo meaning father of the mysteries, or Iyanifa, mother of wisdom. Not everyone agrees with my interpretation of initiation. The spiritual axis munde or centre point of the Ifa Universe is Oke Itase, located in Ile Ife, Nigeria.
The word Oke Itase from the elision Oke ita ase means mountain at the crossroads of power. Oke Itase is where the prophet Orunmila shared his vision of creation with the world. Oke Itase is not a mountain but an artificial hill made from natural silicon flakes stacked above an underground waterway. In the book Before Atlantis, Frank Joseph claimed that over 70,000 sacred stones are all over the planet.

He states most of them are over specific geological terrain, which generates negative ions. The silicon flakes over an underground water source are one of the configurations he describes. According to Frank Joseph, negative ions directly affect the brain waves conducive to altered states of consciousness. Oke Itase linked this sacred place to a Golden age when global cultures terraformed the planet.
Please note; that the updated meaning of the trident Icon in the image above uses the Niger-Korfodian Symbol, over 8,000 years old. And it means High-Mourn, like mourning the death of a Deity, King, Elite or Great Warrior. The latter translation is more accurate. To read the full article please click the link provided:
Egyptian & Niger-Congo, Symbols
Ifa scripture refers to this Golden Age when Orisa walked on earth. Further confirmation of my theory came when Oranmiyan’s staff in Ile Ife is a stone pillar standing approximately twenty feet tall. About two-thirds up the column is the symbol of a trident made from iron nails pounded into the stone. The column is ancient, and the iron nails show no indication of rust. The ability to make iron nails that do not rust is one of the skills attributed to alchemy.
Alchemy is the ability to transform one element into another element by opening and closing hyperdimensional gates. In Ifa, these gates or portals are called Odu. These gates are Igbodu from the elision Igbo odu, womb of the forest.
OLOJO FESTIVAL
The Olojo Festival is an ancient festival celebrated annually in Ife, Osun State, Nigeria. It is one of the most popular festivals in the Yoruba land. Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi described the festival as celebrating the existence of the Black race worldwide.
The Lokolokos are his bodyguards during the Olojo Festival. The movement of the Sun around October from the West to the East decides the time for the commencement of the festival. Only the Olojo chief priest identifies the particular day to celebrate the festival.
The first day of the festival includes rituals such as Ijawe Ifa Ooni (leaf picking for Ooni's oracle) and Arisun Idana Afin (a culinary vigil at the palace), and the second day is about Bibo Ifa Ooni (sacrifice for Ooni's Oracle). The third and fourth days are devoted to Awo Oloju Merindinlogun performing rites (a cult with sixteen faces).
A public lecture and roundtable discussion on 'women in Ifa,' as well as a performance of rituals by a priest named Araba Agbaye, took place on the fifth day. The climax, which begins on Saturday and lasts until early the next day, includes Iwure (blessings/prayer) by Araba Agbaye (the backbone of the universe) and other Arabas, as well as the feeding of Ifa and the crafting of that year's divination.

| The Ooni of Ife during the Olojo Festival |
The Ooni (king of Ife) appears after seven days of seclusion and denial, including food and water, communing with the ancestors and praying for his people. It is to make him pure and ensure the efficacy of his prayers. Before the Ooni emerges, women from his maternal and paternal families sweep his palace, symbolically ridding it of evil.
The Ooni later appears in public with the Are Crown, believed to be the original used by Oduduwa to lead a procession of traditional Chiefs and Priests to perform at the Shrine of Ogun. The next stage of the ceremony is leading the crowd to the Okemogun shrine. Here he performs duties including the renewal of oath, divination for the Ooni at the foot of Oketage hill by Araba (Chief Priest), and visiting places of historical importance.
At the shrine, the traditional Chiefs with the swords of office marked with chalk and camwood appear in ceremonial attire and dance to rhythms to a drum called Bembe. The style of grum and singing for each Chief is different. Only the Ooni can dance to the drum called Osirigi.
Olojo has remained popular in Ile-Ife because of its myth and history. It connotes the day in the year, especially blessed by Olodumare (the creator of the cosmos). Olojo means the Owner for the day. They pray for peace and tranquillity in Yoruba and Nigeria. All age groups participate. Its significance is the unification of the Yoruba tribes.
Tradition holds that Ile-Ife is the cradle of the Yorubas, the city of survivors, the spiritual seat of the Yorubas, and the land of the ancients.
