Dear seeker of wisdom,
When someone needs a person they can count on, are you usually the one who says yes? Perhaps it happens at work, with your family, even among friends who rarely ask anyone else. You may remember each occasion clearly and still have trouble seeing what they have in common.
I created LIFE CHART for questions like this. It is a personal reading that draws on Odù and Òrìṣà to explore patterns you may recognize across many years of your life.
In this short film, you’ll meet Marina. Her story shows how a LIFE CHART can help you recognize a pattern in your own life, especially one that others may see in you long before you notice it yourself.
What a LIFE CHART can show you
Marina, the fictional reader in our sample, has been offered a leadership role that would mean traveling more often. At home, she is settling her father’s estate. When her partner asks how they would manage the extra time apart, Marina starts working out a plan. Only later does she realize that nobody, including Marina herself, has asked whether she wants the role.
You can read Marina’s chart with that moment in mind. Where has her readiness to take responsibility served her well? When has saying yes made it harder for the people closest to her to hear what she wants? These are questions she can return to long after she has answered the job offer.
Your own chart begins with your date of birth. If you have received a life Odù through initiation or divination, or know your personal Òrìṣà connections, you can include them. The report makes clear which references come from your birth date and which come from your tradition. You can begin with what you know.
I developed the interpretive framework and use AI to prepare each report from the information you share. I invite you to read the sample first and see what that looks like on the page.
You can read Marina’s complete LIFE CHART in English or Brazilian Portuguese. If you’d like to see how to prepare your own, the step-by-step video walks you through the process.
