The Diloggun
The first book on Santeria's holiest divination system to thoroughly explore each family of odu and how their actions and reactions affect the spiritual development of the client. * Includes the major considerations for sacrifice, providing the diviner with ways to placate and supplicate the Afro-Cuban deities known as orishas. * Demonstrates how to properly end a reading so that negative vibrations are fully removed from the diviner's home. * Provides a thoroughly detailed description of each of the 12 families of odu that exist in the diloggun-from Okana through Ejila Shebora. The diloggun is more than a tool of divination. It is a powerful transformational process, and the forces that are set in motion when it is cast determine the future evolution of the adherent. The Diloggun is the first book to explore this Afro-Cuban oracle from the perspective of diaspora orisha worship. It is also the first book to explore the lore surrounding this mysterious oracle, which is the living Bible of one of the world's fastest growing faiths. The twelve families of odu that are available to the diviner include 192 omo odu, the children of the odu, and each of these patterns or letters has its own proverbs, meanings, prohibitions, and sacrifices. Ocha'ni Lele provides the secret but essential information that the adept diviner needs to know to ensure that every element affecting a client's spiritual development is taken into consideration during a reading. His book is also the first to detail how to properly end a session so that negative vibrations are absorbed by the orishas and fully removed from the diviner's home. For those seeking the wisdom of ancient Africa, The Diloggun is an indispensable guide to the mysteries of the orishas.

Obi
The first book to provide complete, specific instructions for casting the obi oracle of the Santeria faith.
* Uses the shell of a coconut, which embodies the spirit of Obi, as a divination tool.
* Includes a detailed "mojuba" or prayer that awakens the orishas and invites them to speak.
* Examines in depth the five basic patterns that appear when obi is cast and explains how to interpret the oracle's answer.
* Explores the fifty additional patterns and meanings contributed by ten orishas closely associated with the orisha Obi.
One of the paths to the spirits within Santeria is through a divination technique known as obi, the coconut oracle, which gives the petitioner access to the orisha of the same name. The orisha Obi began as a mortal human who ascended to become an orisha as a reward for good deeds done on Earth, then fell from grace because of excessive pride. When he descended back to Earth, his spirit was embodied in the coconut palm. Though he no longer has a tongue, he can answer questions posed to him through the patterns made by four pieces of coconut shell cast as a divination tool.
Obi: Oracle of Cuban Santeria is the first book to fully explore the sacred body of lore surrounding Obi, as well as his particular rituals and customs, including opening considerations, casting and interpreting the oracle, and employing advanced methods of divination. Also explained are the previously unpublished secrets of closing the oracle properly so that any negative vibrations will be absorbed by the coconuts and permanently removed from the diviner's home.
