Manifesting Destiny in Yorùbá Spirituality: The Role of Àyànmọ̀, Orí, and Ifá
In Yorùbá spirituality, Àyànmọ̀ is the destiny chosen before birth, guided by Orí—the inner divinity that leads us to fulfillment. Ifá offers wisdom to realign with that destiny, while Ìwà Pẹ̀lẹ́—good character—sustains it. Ancestors, community, and ritual strengthen our path. To live in sacred alignment means honoring Orí daily, acting with integrity, and embracing the divine plan with clarity, humility, and grace. Orí is the crown of fulfillment.
