Being a relatively young olorisa, I am excited to deepen the knowledge that has been gifted to me by my iyalorisas. I agree with the reviewers that this text is for those who have come to Sixteen Cowries with some prior, appropriate training. As an anthropological text, this is a masterful work. Again, don't come to this book without training from one's elders... in Lukumi or Anthropology!

Too many verses too few informtions
8/10 of this book are verses. However in despite Bascom had made a greate Job in Ifa Divination, here, I don't agree.The meridilogun is based in Odu interpretation not only in verses. There is no information regard each Odu message, meaning, how to read the signm sub-signs.... If you want to understand how the meridilogun works, it is not here. I can believe people can use this system to use the Oracle, but, if is far from to be the only method. At least in case of this research it is failed. We have some Cuban's book about Meridilogun and I was waiting to find here the african reference (nos diasporic), but, well can't be so diferent.

This book gave me some the information looking for.
P**.
I was not impressed with this big book of lengthy jargon and parables.
This book was a waste of my money and brain cells, I don't know why Africans over complicate these paths, if you don't want to reveal things to certain people fine, but to write these complicated books which amounts to pure frustration, why should people have to break out their crouching tiger hidden dragon, 36 chambers of shaolin and macgver skills to try and decode what is being written. this book is a complete waste of time, save yourself the urge from flinging it out the window rendering some poor passerby unconscious. instead pick up Afro-Cuban Divination by Ocha'ni Lele which is far more reader friendly and you will actually learn how to read the odu. I would also suggest calling on Oshun to help you interpret them. I found this book to be completely useless, nothing in it about how to actually interpret the odu, just jargon and long winded parables which made no sense. I am furious I wasted my money on this trash.
