Welcome back to Ifá Mythology: Keys to Ancient Healing with your hosts, Oyindamola and Titilope. Today, we enter the mystery of Ìká Méjì, a sacred Odù that asks us to stop choosing one side of the story and instead embrace the whole.

Through the poetic tale of Ọlọ́fin, a king who sought to birth destiny through sacrifice, we explore how the masculine and feminine, the seen and unseen, the physical and spiritual, are not opposites but twins—meant to be held together.

You’ll hear the haunting prophecy of two babaláwos, the birth of divine twins, and the ancient wisdom that ended the practice of discarding what we do not understand. Because what we discard on the outside often mirrors what we deny within.

✨ In this episode:

Why twins = wholeness in Yoruba cosmology
The symbolic meaning of prophecy, sacrifice, and divine timing
How Ifá teaches us to integrate all parts of the Self—especially the ones we’ve been taught to throw away
A powerful Oríkì Ìbejì (praise poetry of the twins), graciously shared by Olóòtú Agbà Lumee (@lumee_m)
Deep parallels to Jungian shadow work, Christian scripture, and the path of individuation
🎧 Whether you’re new to Ifá or returning home to a truth you’ve always known, this story will speak to your spirit.
