Dear seekers of wisdom,
“Ìyàwó, máa lọ pẹ̀lú Orí rẹ—má ṣe lọ pẹ̀lú ẹwà rẹ.”
“Bride (new wife), go with your Orí—don’t go with your beauty.”
When a bride steps into a new home, Ifá says she should carry Orí (the inner head, destiny) like a lantern—because beauty can light a room for a night, but Orí is what keeps the hearth burning for a lifetime.
