I had to share this post cause it is spot on. Just be cause your reading in the moment supports it doesn’t mean you will be able to maintain it. The work must continue for both parties to fulfill their destinies. Ase
THE REALITY OF RELATIONSHIPS IN IFA
When couples turn to IFA for guidance in their relationship, it is often with the hope that divine wisdom will bring clarity, alignment, and confirmation of their union. The first step in such spiritual consultation is to seek compatibility to know whether your destinies, energies, and life paths are in harmony and through the Ifa consultation determine if the union is supported or permissible.
If the odu confirms compatibility, it is a green light but not a guarantee. Compatibility is not a substitute for character, and spiritual alignment does not replace emotional maturity, respect, communication, and effort. Ifa emphasis on Iwa Pele by both individuals. The spiritual realm opens the door, but the human responsibility is to walk the path with integrity and humility.
When things begin to fall apart, one or both partners may start to question the validity of the consultation, saying “IFA lied” or “the reading was wrong.” But Ifá doesn’t lie. IFA speaks to potential and truth in the moment. What you do with that truth determines the outcome.
The breaking of a relationship after a seemingly confirmed spiritual union is not always a sign of failure. Sometimes, the relationship was meant to be a lesson, a phase of growth, or a catalyst to reveal hidden aspects of self. Just because IFA confirms the alignment doesn’t mean both people will choose to do the inner work required to make it last.
True spiritual companionship requires more than shared rituals, It demands commitment to self-awareness, accountability, and emotional healing. If two people are not willing to face themselves and evolve together, no oracle, no priest, no divination can sustain the bond.
So let us not blame the wisdom of IFA when human will, ego, or neglect causes a relationship to fall apart. Instead, let us look within, reflect, and rise stronger—wiser in love, in spirit, and in character.
