Odi-Oturupon

Osunsun, the awo of Oluigbo,
cast for "Agressive" on the day
that she tried to teach the Awo his own trade,
on the day also that the mistook
the local traditions of her little village
for cosmic laws. Ifa says: Oh dear!
We've got a very stubborn person here,
with preconceived ideas about
the way things ought to go.
Often, when this Odu falls,
the client refuses to believe
the Awo and the words of Ifa.
A wise Awo then ends the session.

Odi-Oturupon

Warning with regard to Odi-Oturupon! The client should be alerted to, and asked about, the possibility of anything infectious or contagious, and anything that might cause a fever. That can be any kind of inflammation, infectious disease, contamination, poisoning... that kind of stuff. Really, this needs thorough examination! It can be something as simple as the risk of a light food poisoning on the one hand, or a severe warning against the HIV virus on the other. Another aspect of Odi-Oturupon is that the client often refuses to believe the Awo, who should then simply end the divination. That's a tough measure which should seldom be taken, but in this Odu it might be the best thing to do.
