Oya Ifa and the Spirit of the Wind
By Awo Fa'loken Fatunmbi
 
Oya is the Spirit of the Wind in the West African religious tradition called "Ifa", The word Oya is the name given to describe a complex convergence of Spiritual Forces that are key elements in the Ifa concept of change. Those Spiritual Forces that form the foundation of Oya's role in the Spirit realm relate to the movement between dynamics and form as it exits throughout the Universe
