OBARA IROSUN

1. Ifa says that whenever you are sent on any errand, you must always use your common
sense to relay the message. This will always pull you out of trouble if you are
diplomatic and you use your sense. Conversely, you refusal to be diplomatic may
continuously land you in trouble and avoidable crises. Ifa advises you to offer ebo with
three roosters and money. On this, Ifa says:

Dia fun Eja
A buf’Akan
Won ngbebo lo sile Olodumare
Nitoriomi to won laye
Alakannikanninbeleyinti n tubo
Emi o je fi ‘see mi ran Eja

Translation
Obaralasun-lasunabenuduudu
Ifa cast for Eja the Fish
And also for Akan the Crab
When they were carrying ebo to the domain of Olodumare
In order to ask for rainfall on earth
Only Alakan the Crab offered the ebo
I will never send Eja the Fish to go on errand for me
Mine is Akan, success
2. Ifa says that there is need for you to continue to give respect to elders and constituted
authority. This is what you will do that will save you from hardship and problem. Ifa
advise you to offer ebo with one matured he-goat and plenty of camwood (Osun).
After the ebo the Osun will be grinded into powder and ObaraLasun will be imputed on
it. This Odu will be recited and will be used to rub the body for seven consecutive days.
On this, Ifa says:
