In Yoruba tradition, the Ifa divination tray, known as aworan eya ifo, holds deep spiritual significance. It is closely associated with Orunmila, the deity of wisdom and divination, and is particularly linked to Ile Ife, a sacred city in Yoruba cosmology.
The tray serves as a central tool in Ifa consultations. It features two main compartments and is used to interpret signs related to destiny, spiritual guidance, and communication with Olodumare, the supreme creator. Through the sacred divination process, practitioners seek insight into individual paths and community matters.
This object is more than a physical instrument; it represents a bridge between the human and spiritual worlds in Yoruba religious practice.
