In Igbo cosmology, Afa Akpukpala beyond being a tool for divination, is a living map of the cosmos. Built on the binary principles of Obi (inner planets) and Akwu (outer planets), Afa mirrors the structure of our solar system, encoding planetary movements and spiritual forces within its sacred seeds. Each divination session becomes a reenactment of cosmic interactions, making Afa not just spiritual, but fundamentally astronomical.

In Igbo astrology, the Polarity Principle teaches that growth doesn't come from choosing one side over another, but from balancing opposites. Every force in the cosmos — light and dark, action and stillness, self and other — exists as part of a greater whole. This teaching explores how polarity operates not just through zodiac opposites, but as a universal law of energy, transformation, and integration.
