Ogunda Meji

Well, it’s time to get back to work! And what better Odu to use than Ogunda Meji!  

As an Obatala walking with the Life Path Odu: Ogunda Bede… I have always had a certain soft spot for Ogun (plus I am married to one!) Like with all Odu… our lives are greatly influenced by them.  As we gain the knowledge and meaning with each one through personal experiences playing out in our everyday life…we will each find special value with a certain set of  them.

For the “newcomer” … It’s very important to not get consumed by the “gathering & gathering” of information process without doing the work of applying what we been bringing into our thoughts. In the case of Ogunda… it is first and foremost all about getting the work done and building with the concepts Ogunda teaches us.

With the matrix of Ogunda we can move from a frail disposition to moving with a more consist solid flow with greater confidence.  We will be able to grow the possibilities for using greater creativity in order to create successful solutions for issues at hand.  For those that are diviners… when Ogunda lands as one of or both legs of the Odu … it means to RUN THROUGH THE POSSIBILITIES IN YOUR OWN HEAD AND NOT TO THE COMPUTER FIRST!

The Ogunda Meji Odu teaches us to get out the target and get our minds in focus on the top priority and go with greater determination without shortcuts…clearing the obstacles and execute intelligently. Certainly the work ethic should be your initial consideration... and as it applies to you, you must ask… “Am I doing all I can in my current situation?”  Or am I trying to do too much? Am I being too creative and failing to keep my eye on the ball? Then you need to go through each and every one of the possibilities.

It doesn't mean you will always come up with the “right” answer on your own…but you do create an effective long-term patterning and approach to doing the work.

Love and Blessings
