Òrò: The Ancestral Voice of Order in Yorùbá Tradition
In Yorùbá tradition, Òrò is the ancestral voice of order, heard through the sacred bullroarer that carries the presence of the ancestors. More than ritual, Òrò enforces discipline, protects the land, and unites the community under ancestral authority. Its secrecy preserves its sanctity, reminding all that the unseen guides the living. Òrò is mystery, power, and the voice of the ancestors still speaking today.
