Bendiciones everyone,
Quick question for our community.
Once someone gets Mano de Orula, can they pretty much anyone receive Egun tile? Or is that something that only comes up if it specifically marks in an Odu during a consulta/ita?
Second part to my question… what’s the actual difference in practice between working with Egun vs Egungun? I know Egun is the ancestors, but I get a little confused on where Egungun fits into Lukumí vs Ifá practices and whether that’s a totally separate thing/society.
Trying to make sure I’m understanding how ancestor veneration works as I learn more. Thanks in advance for any insights! Ashe.

Hey everyone,
I completely slipped up earlier today and accidentally whistled near Elegua’s shrine without thinking. As soon as I did it, my heart sank. I know whistling in the house, especially near the Orishas, is a major no-no.
I immediately apologized, tapped the floor, and offered him some cool water to cool down the energy and ask for forgiveness.

Has anyone else ever made this mistake by muscle memory or habit? What was your experience afterward, and did you do anything specific beyond an apology and water to make peace?

I appreciate any insight or stories from those who've been practicing longer than I have! Gracias/Ashe.

I’m hoping a California agent with CRMLS access might be able to help me pull some archived information or photos for an old listing.
The property is located in Apple Valley, CA, and the historical MLS number from 2023 is #IV23009983.
The home is currently back on the market under a new MLS number, but it's being sold as-is with no interior access or current interior photos. I am trying to track down any data, agent remarks, or photos that were uploaded back during that 2023 listing period so I can get a better idea of what the inside looked like when it was originally built/listed.
If anyone is able to pull the historical archive for #IV23009983 and send over a PDF or screenshots of whatever is left in the system, I would be incredibly grateful!
Thank you so much in advance for your time and help!

Hello all! In search of an Opele de hierro for my Oggun. I’ve searched Etsy and EBay but can’t find one. Anyone know where I can source it

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for some perspective on the order of receiving foundational initiations.
Has anyone here received their Mano de Orula with Guerreros before their Collares?
If so, why?
