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.

Number Five (ISE) can be understood as Ete Ora—a sacred point of revelation, testimony, and actualization, in Afa dictum. It marks the moment when hidden truths emerge into the world, when spiritual insight takes form, and when the voice of one's Chi begins to speak clearly. Associated with ether, prophecy, and primordial creative energy (Omumu), Five represents the threshold between the invisible and the visible. This teaching explores how ISE functions as the divine number of expression, urging us to reveal, embody, and manifest the sacred purpose we carry within.

In Igbo mystical numerology, number Nine (9) is revered as the sacred point of Ijite—the moment of spiritual emergence and the declaration of “I am.” It marks the awakening of Chi as it prepares to manifest purpose in the world. Number Nine is a metaphysical threshold in Igbo numerology—where hidden essence becomes conscious identity. This teaching explores how Nine symbolizes the power of becoming, the rhythm of destiny, and the sacred pulse of personal divinity in both ancient and modern life.

In Afa, Otule-Ete represents the sacred dance of creation, where Ogwugwu and Omumu energies embody the cosmic interplay of divine forces. Symbolic to Enigwe na-agba Ana Uta cosmic principle, this union of the Divine Feminine and Masculine reveals the spiritual blueprint of all existence. Through the lens of Afa in Odinani, they are not separate beings but inseparable principles—mirrors of balance, awakening, and creation.

This teaching explores how the spirit of Enigwe na-agba Ana Uta—the Archer, Sagittarius emerges from Afa which offers a great perspective for Igbo astrology. We uncover major themes we can learn from Afa, modern astrology, and spiritual symbolism when it comes to this zodiac sign.

In Igbo mysticism, Akwu Ose represents a woman’s deepest spiritual essence, where stillness meets divine potency. It is from this sacred center that women naturally manifest creativity, insight, and transformative power. This teaching explores how modern narratives have limited this vast potential to fertility, and how reclaiming Akwu Ose allows women to reconnect with their true strength, purpose, and the feminine force that fuels the divine mind itself.

In Igbo astrology, Aka Ete Iyi, known to modern science as Sirius B, is revered as the first vibrating light, the cosmic womb from which all life and form emerged. Called Ogbolodo, it is the star that birthed the universe, housing Obi Chukwu, the divine house of God. This teaching explores the spiritual depth of Sirius B as the original star, the sacred mother, and the guiding light in our cosmic journey.

In Afa Akpukpala mystic matrix-system, not all spiritual vision is the same. Ose Aka is the divine eye that sees spirit in its pure, original form, beyond our dimension. Ose Ora, on the other hand, is the eye of Universal Consciousness, used to perceive divine guidance and spiritual truth within our world. This teaching explores the difference between these two sacred eyes, and how each reveals a unique aspect of the unseen.

In Afa Akpukpala mystic matrix-system of divination, everything begins with a sacred balance: Akwu (stillness) and Obi (motion). These twin forces shape not only the universe but our daily lives. This teaching explores how recognizing this binary rhythm of action and rest, speaking and silence etc can bring us deeper clarity, harmony, and spiritual insight.

In Afa and Igbo mysticism, not all seeing is true vision. 'Ose Ululu', which refers to the ordinary eye, helps us navigate the physical world, but it cannot perceive the spiritual forces shaping our lives. This teaching from the wisdom of Afa explores the limits of physical sight and the importance of developing inner vision to understand the unseen truths that guide destiny and purpose.

The Akasa (Akashic) Records are a vast, non-physical archive of every soul’s journey—past, present, and even future possibilities. Rooted in ancient spiritual philosophy and accessed or understood in Odinani through Aja Ani, the Records are believed to exist within the subtle energy field of Aka Ose—Akasa (Akasha), the essence of all creation. This teaching explores the origins, meaning, and modern interpretations of the Akasa Records, along with practical ways people access them today through meditation and intuitive practice.

Uga Azi, known in Afa as Aka Aghali, the age of wild animal-like behaviour, is a time when human beings fall into patterns of instinct, ignorance, and spiritual disconnection. Marked by anger, selfishness, and ritual without depth, it reflects a state of being where people act more like wild animals than awakened souls. This teaching explores the meaning of Uga Azi and how recognizing its signs can guide us back to true spiritual consciousness.
