One divination will not solve all your problems, that is why we advise that a person should receive an Ifa divination reading at least once every two weeks to a month to make sure that they are on the right path and nothing will interfere within the growth. As humans we are faced with lots of challenges in life ranging from health problems, financial problems, poverty, enemies, relationship problem etc. During the divination process, whatever areas of your life needs strong attention and elevation.

How often as a newcomer should I receive a IFA Divination?

New beginners into the Ifa traditions, should receive an Ifa divination AS OFTEN AS POSSIBLE, most people do every week , or every two weeks or when they feel unbalanced , when they feel like there is a problem , when there is a problem, when your mind tells you too, every Ose Ifa , the minimum once a month and all devotees should always make Ifa Divination and ebos frequently to ensure successful results and maintain balance in there life.
