COURSE DESCRIPTION:

So what is a “Hand” of Ifá, anyway?
Isefá is called one Hand of Ifá, because it is a precursor step to full Ifa Initiation (Tefa), where one would receive the second and subsequent “Hands” (sets) of Ifá. A “Hand” of Ifá is a complete set of Ikin (sacred palm seeds) making up the consecrated Ifá. In other lineages and cultures that practice Ifá, it can be known as Awofakan, Kofa, Icofa/Ikofa, Mano de Orula, or other names. For the purposes of this course, I will be focusing on the more traditional West African ceremony. 

This is an extremely useful class to take if you have recently received your hand of Ifá and are still unclear on how to approach and maintain your shrine and for those who already had your hand of Ifá and need to refresh your understanding. This course will give you access to pre-recorded demonstrations on how to care for your shrine. Approximately 4-5 hours total of video along with audio, weekly classes for four weeks.

CERTIFICATION

A Certificate of Completion will be made available upon successful completion of course requirements.
