About the Odu Ifa Corpus

The Odu Ifa are the sacred signs of BODE Oracle divination, forming the complete corpus of the Ifa oracle system. There are 256 Odus: 16 principal Odus (Ogbe, Oyeku, Iwori, Odi, Irosun, Owonrin, Obara, Okanran, Ogunda, Osa, Ika, Oturupon, Otura, Irete, Ose and Ofun) and 240 combinations formed by pairing each with every other.

Each Odu contains multiple Ese (divination poems), the ASE (Ifa's spiritual pronouncement), EBO (prescribed sacrifice), and Alchemist formulas (alchemical and herbal remedies). Browse by family: Ogbe, Oyeku, Iwori, Odi, Irosun, Owonrin, Obara, Okanran and more above.
