Book Description

Publication Date: Jan 1 1996

For more than 1000 years, the Yoruba of Nigeria have planned their lives, found true love, and learned their destiny through a vibrant and poetic fortune-telling system. African Oracles in 10 Minutes puts the power of these ancient methods in your hands.

Sensing the strong link between sexual and spiritual energy, the Yoruba havetraditionally explored both male and female paths to wisdom. You can choose to follow either the "White Cotton Road," which women have relied on for centuries, or the "Melon Seed Road," favored by men. Each path offers more than 250 readings that are both relevant to modern life and faithful to the spirit of the original systems. All you need are 16 objects -- coins, shells, beads or dried beans -- to get instant answers to yes or no questions as well as in-depth readings on more profound considerations.

African Oracles in 10 Minutes provides both a fascinating glimpse of Yoruban spiritualism and a time-honored method for unlocking the secrets of the past and revealing the destiny that awaits you.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disrespectful and Misleading Nov 26 2002
By El Brujo
Format:Paperback
Sadly to say, I know a few people, who have little knowedge of Orisha, or Orisha worship that have come to me with this book. I always respond, that the book is misleading and disrespectful. The title alone, 10 Minutes, goes against everything believed in Orisha divination and religious structure. "Bit by Bit, we eat the........" for those who know of this ancient Yoruba Proverb. Everything takes time, respect and dedication. This book flushes that theory down the drain. But falsely as the information is not correct and inacurate.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worth Nothing....Disrespectful of the tradition Feb 7 2000
By ekun@email.com
Format:Paperback
This book is worthless. The descriptions of the Odu/Divination patterns it gives have nothing to do with either Cuban or Nigerian traditional interpretations. The book is disrespectful of the tradition from which it misappropriates.

1.0 out of 5 stars Caveat Emptor! Jan 14 2000
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
This book is clueless and exploitative, and has absolutely no basis in the reality and tradition of cowrie shell divination. Clearly nothing more than a bid for bucks, by an author who is counting on the ignorance of his audience.
