How do you know your Orishas???

I know LALA has talked about knowing our history as Africans (Yoruba folktale) but how do we know who to offer our altars to ? Respectfully ? (I have lots of questions) lol

Get initiated. You have to build a relationship with your ancestors and your Ori (head) first. Once you are initiated in a religion (Ifa, Santeria or Palo), your godfather or godmother can give you a reading usually with Obi to find out your crown.

It is. Don’t trust that. If the path is meant for you, the right people will show up. Or you can speak with someone that practices. Most people that own a botanica is connect to a house. That’s a good place to get information or get started in the process. A real babalowa will never just tell you who your crown is without the proper initiation and ceremonies. My apologies for the long message.
