Ofo Ase - Words of Wisdom - Week of September 6th, 2010

Personal Power leads to Abundance

Stay focused on being true to the spirit of goodness that flows through you, you are a gift to Mother Earth. Spread your arms and be the gift to the world that you were meant to be. Maintain an internal introspective to clear away the negativity that drains your energy. Look for the blessing, move away discouraging people, steer clear of discouraging places. Anything that makes your spirit sink into darkness run away fast to prevent the wicked thoughts and intentions of others to stain your spirit. Just because someone wants you to be negative does not mean that you have to be negativity. Negativity is a choice, the more negativity that you allow to stay around, stay within your heart and mind comes out in your words and actions, shorten your days, by calling illness, death and despair to your door.

Close the door to negativity
This week sweep out your heart and mind from ghosts of should of, would of and could of, that horse has left the barn. Release and let go in preparation for the love connection to the civilization that is arriving shortly. Demonstrate your care for you and your family, and Mother Earth. Love is really the answer to the needs of all. Mother Earth calls for your attention, tune into the weather and the wave of energy circulating around in the air. Use your creative fire power for projects that build your financial stability. Give people their space as the cycle of nature begins to turn inward. Turn your attentions to your personal truth from the divine messenger. Believe in your personal power and you can produce positive results and use your personal power to increase your financial and business interests. Allow your mind and heart to be positive and your walk will be satisfying.

Poison in/Poison out
Remember ingesting poison creates poisonous outcomes this true of all things. It does not matter whether you are ingesting poison by listening or speaking or doing; poison words, deeds and actions poison the air and not just weak minded folks. Poison is deadly to everyone. Shut down poison before it can overtake your world. This week use awareness and stay mindful of the words, actions, feelings, and thoughts that poison your spirit.
Slow down, sit still and give thanks for all your blessings. The ancestors are supporting your success.

Material Wealth Belongs to You

Osun, divine mother of love says material wealth belongs to you, you need only to create your own opportunities through enterprising ventures. Material wealth owns this day, start planning the work and you will be paid. This is a good day to obtain material possessions, be sensible making large purchases. Slow down and enjoy the material gain that comes today for soon it is over and you will wish that you had slowed down to enjoy the experience. Many people manifest some form of material gain today, however show humility and thank your divine spirits for the blessings. Protect your creations for against harm and danger; keep them hidden from people that do not wish you well.

Osun says check your intentions towards others to ensure you use Iwa Pele *(good and gentle character) to direct your steps today. Do not make others feel bad because you feel bad or oppressed by conditions in your environment. Today some people lead and direct others with spitefulness, take care that you do not put on the armor of hate to communicate with others or conspire to hurt another. The traps you set for others today, is a trap you set for yourself, all evil intentions, actions, thoughts and feelings come back to hurt you. Today remember the spirit that lives in you is holy and sacred; it upholds the laws of the universe. On this day create thoughts that elevate and build your inner spiritual strength, use positive self talk and prayer; to protect yourself from being subjected to the cruelty of others. Remember that you are good and blessed person. In all things be calm and have a cool head to prevent you from displaying negative behaviors that eventually come back to hurt you.

Thanks to Iya (Mother) Dollmaker for the affirmations of the day:

For all that I have...for all that I create...for all that is beautiful in my world. I give thanks.

For all that requires correction and modification...I ask for wisdom and strength

May the Divine use any trials to make me stronger and build character!

I am thankful and grateful for all. ASE!!!

Greet your day with a smile and love in your heart

Thank your Divine Mother Spirit for your life, your ability to love and your sustenance.

Ofo Ase - Words of Wisdom 4-2-2010 Replace Inner Turmoil

Osun one of the Divine Mothers says replace inner turmoil by applying enthusiastic passion and cheerfulness for the dull work needed to achieve new goals. After you clear out the clutter you need to fill up on the inspirations sent to you by the divine spirit. You have been given the gift creating; you are capable of using your creative imagination to move an inspirational project, event or process forward. Stop looking backward and stop bringing up past issues, accept what exists and move your vision for your life into your reality. Do your spiritual work. Dedicate time for prayer-praise and meditation to quiet the mind and to help you connect with your inner divine for spiritual support to complete your tasks.

Osun says the energy on the planet is stale and creates heavy handed power and control struggles between people. It creates the desire to dwell in the house of self pity. Don’t fall into the pity party trap. Take yourself out the picture of any conflicting situations and review it from the eyes of an observer. Recognize that people have agendas based on their thoughts and feelings. Don’t take their negativity personally! Walk away from any conflicts that don’t belong to you. You will feel better that you did not become involved in other peoples’ problems.

Osun says watch yourself at work; do not goof off at work today. People with a little authority will be spying on you and will report any behavior less than perfect. Your plans are interrupted by low level task masters that intrude on your peace of mind with trivial issues. It is far better to allow them to feel like they have power than it is to add more stress to your life by hating a wannabe boss. Stay alert at work.

Osun say steer clear of creating illusion with the powerful energy of imagination as you think and feel so shall you do. The heart and the mind must be in agreement, feelings of guilt, fear, doubt in your plans means you need to go back and redo them until you feel the peace of mind that you know, when you got it right. Today pray to your ancestors for your clarity and purpose. Pray to the divine spirit of truth for the ability to discern your truth from your lie. Pray to the divine mothers to end the suffering around the world. Pray to the one divine spirit for justice for all people on Mother Earth. ASE-O

Thanks to Iya (Mother) Dollmaker for the affirmations of the day:

For all that I have...for all that I create...for all that is beautiful in my world. I give thanks.

For all that requires correction and modification...I ask for wisdom and strength

May the Divine use any trials to make me stronger and build character!

I am thankful and grateful for all. ASE!!!

Greet your day with a smile and love in your heart

Thank your Divine Mother Spirit for your ability to create good things for yourself, others and the planet.

Find Inner Strength Honor Your Creations

Osun, one of the Divine Mothers of love says today find inner strength from honoring and respecting the creations that came from your mind, your body and your spirit. Spend a moment to honor and respect the accomplishments of your life and thank the divine spirit for the ability to create beautiful, marvelous and wonderful children, art, music, writings, and structures with the ASE (Power) given to you by the one divine spirit. Today the strength you need to overcome the obstacles of negative self talk, illness and worries over recent losses and debilitating defeats is by reflecting and valuing your creations. Use this spring season to harness the new ideas and share in the flow of new creations and new activities that are available. Before receiving the new energy of creation, all need to complete the cycle of cleansing to remove negative residue to begin the spring season of creation. Today clear out dead ideas and failed actions that did not create goodness in your life.
Osun says this is the time of the year to clean your mind, your body and your spirit, and throw away left over negative thoughts and feelings that you are harboring against others. Open the road to your freedom to enjoy the fruits of your creations. Look through the window here comes your destiny, are you ready to miss your future greatness. Good people it is time to shake loose the chains of fears, doubts, regrets, sorrows, sickness and conflicts. Control your destiny; refuse to participate in situations and dramas that drain your life energy and make you sick. Show love to others and seek to be around loving people. Extend lifelines to good people that need your help that you have the ability to help and an abundance of blessings will flow back to you
Osun says utilize a cool head and a strong heart to walk away from petty squabbles that add nothing to your life or the life of planet. It is time to walk without doing injury to the planet that sustains you. Remove your life energy from people, places, things that mean you harm, release anger against anyone that has done you wrong but, do not continue to allow them entrance into the front seat of or your show.
Osun says you are the star of your own show, although all people are born to be stars, not everyone rises to be seen from heavens. Many lack courage to embrace the divine spirit of goodness to accomplish their meaningful purpose on the planet. Their job is to prevent your star from rising. Shield yourself from people that are happy when your star fails to rise, you know them; they give fake encouragement and counterfeit support. These people have led your show and now it time for you to lock them out of your life. People that enjoy your sorrows can not be in your inner circle. Know that the hidden enemy to your greatness is you, now choose audience members of your show that you can freely share your inner thoughts and feelings, good people that see the greatness in you and your feelings about hidden enemies will disappear.
Osun says balance your joyful creations with humility, embrace and value the joy in your life, share your joy with others that is your strength in the blessed life you have been given. You are a wonderful beautiful and marvelous creation and creator of good in your life. Throughout this day and every day find moments to honor, to respect and to reflect on your creations. You, your children and your life will flourish as will all your creations that you dedicate time, energy, love, respect and honor. Be thankful for each creation for they are all blessings to you and to the world. ASE-O

Negative Energy Promotes Problems- Self-Love Talk Helps

Osun one of the divine mothers of love says that negative energy promotes problems, worries, fears and illness, self love talk helps to stop you from receiving this negative energy. Do not submit to negative thinking that intensifies the problem. Today you can prevent unnecessary concerns by examining the root of the issue; and then shut down thoughts and feelings that bring fears, doubts and conflicts. You are the only one that can avert negative energy from attaching to you. Situations that bring unfavorable outcomes should be dealt with quickly. Admit defeat, whether your issue is a material thing, a thought, an emotion or an action, it does not matter. Any situation that causes you to be sick, overwhelmed or overly stressed must be released to heal the wounds of battle. Don’t hold on to defeats. Your efforts did not get you what you wanted. Know that it is okay to fail. Failure builds inner strength of character and determination, when you believe in you. Know that you have the ability to grow to learn and to know better and to do better next time. Step by step is the way to climb a mountain, if you slip, just hold on and try again, step by step you will eventually reach the top.
Osun says that the truthfulness starts within, stop trying to blame other people for the relationship problems that you carry within. Be honest with yourself, how do you expect someone to love you when you don’t take responsibility for your choices. You chose your partners and you taught them how to treat you. To change negative relationship outcomes, start with truth. Have an honest conversation with yourself; recognize that you are 100% responsible for establishing relationships with the wrong people. Acknowledge your faults and work on changing you, develop true love for yourself by being truthful in your dealing with yourself and with others. Commit time and energy to improving you and this will attract partners that live with the same divine spirit of truth within.
Osun says look to younger family members that are good with carrying out plans to help your money situation to improve. Young people that are hard working and follow directions well can provide you with insight and different viewpoints that will alter the way that you look at increasing your income. Parents, everyday you teach your children about family values, they learn from watching you. Look at how you act to determine how they will act with others. Seek counsel for yourself and children acting out at school; they are learning how to interact with others through their interactions with you. Stop arguing and entertaining nonsense that children whine about, help them do their homework but, don’t do it for them, read to them and have them read to you, paint, write, play music, and do activities to allow them to converse, if they want to argue, shut down the activity until they are willing to participate in fun with a good attitude.
Osun says that within you exists the power to create the perfect combination of elements to establish meaningful purpose for your life. Educate yourself to achieve the satisfaction of doing the work that you were sent here to do. Tune into your inner spirit for guidance. Ask for your meaning and purpose to be shown to you to gain satisfaction within.
Osun says that this is not the time for peace and contentment, take control of important projects. Sometimes you have to fight for what you believe it but, pick and choose your battles wisely. Use skill and honorable actions to achieve your goals. Thanks to Iya (mother) Dollmaker for the affirmations of the day:
For all that I have...for all that I create...for all that is beautiful in my world. I give thanks.
For all that requires correction and modification...I ask for wisdom and strength
May the Divine use any trials to make me stronger and build character!
I am thankful and grateful for all. ASE!!!

Greet your day with a smile and love in your heart
Thank your Divine Mother Spirit for the ability to handle truth, the ability to repel negative energies and the ability love yourself !

Ofo Ase - Words of Wisdom Thankfulness and Gratitude

Osun one of the divine mothers says thankfulness and gratitude for what you have will save you from being turned upside down today. The energy of the day arrives with those disappointing and distressing feelings of being upside down either in your head or your heart or your mind. Survive negative feelings and thoughts by using the strength of your inner divine spirit. Give thanks to your divine source for your ancestors, your elders and your parents. They are the roots of your culture and the foundation that supports your life force. Be willing to admit mistakes and correct misunderstandings before someone brings the ugly truth to you. The outcome of dramas today can be disastrous and cause major upsets. This is the energy of war, strife and major catastrophes. Pray for the safety and protection of the American president and other world leaders that want to change the status quo to include all people instead of just some people.

Osun says choose loving communication with your family today, the hurtful communications between loved ones causes division in the family and hurts everyone. You may not like calling on your honored dead family members to give you the strength that you need to solve your family issues. Clearly the issues that worry you, eventually will go away because, this too shall pass. You want fast service and right now; in that case, seek the strength you need from the roots of your family tree: your ancestors. Talk to them; ask for wisdom and guidance that you need to direct you to solutions for family problems.

Osun says pull out your moral yardstick to measure how far you are willing to go to get what you want. You are willing to sacrifice your life to fit into another person's definition of you and you released control of your self determination to be you. Take back control; identify what pleases you and then you can please others. Maintain your spirit of goodness, regardless whether someone else has lost theirs. Karma is a hard lesson to learn when someone turns a blind eye and a deaf ear to doing well for others and speaking well about others. People that turn away from their inner goodness will be forced to learn how to live and act with Iwa Pele (good and gentle character) by the one divine spirit that created us all.

Osun says stop feeling and thinking negative thoughts, they are being manifested into your life. You need to brace yourselves for an unforeseen negative shakeup of your world from the thoughts that you have already created. The negativity in your world is created by your actions. Ask yourself; what have you done to create good in your world that helps you, help others, and helps the planet. In the real world we need to create the world you want to live in, by sharing the love, doing good acts for others and giving love freely from your heart. The world is yours to create and shape to what you want it to be, embrace your good nature, your unique skills and talents and loving heart to create the great things that you were born to do in your lifetime.

Affirmation of the Day: I am a good and blessed person**; all is well with my soul***. Say it 3x each time you say it, speak it aloud to build the courage to bend the divine will within you. ASE

Greet your day with a smile and love in your heart

Thank your Divine Mother Spirit for all the blessings and be thankful for what you have!

Unexpected Good Fortune Swiftly Changes Situations

Osun say that today good fortune rides in unexpectedly and swiftly changes situations. Treat strangers with kindness and hospitality, your job is not to judge them but, give them the respect they deserve, until they prove themselves unworthy. Men, women and children all share the same sacred breathe of life; this is the divine spirit that all humans share. Therefore you are all divine beings and all deserve to be seen as sacred and holy. People that you meet on this day must be shown respect and goodness. The choice to honor strangers will help you to breathe air free of regret for behaving indifferently or negatively and missing your blessing. That stranger that you treat well today will send blessings back your way.

Osun says use money wisely, balance your wants and needs; and you’ll get through any financial difficulty that is happening in your life. Changes come to move away negative money conditions, people in school, with low incomes, stay strong knowing that you will soon have abundance and the money will increase as long as you are spending time doing the school work. Professionals and career workers success in all things can not come until you bend to the will of spirit, when your spirit leads you to do something that you don’t want to do. Follow the plan you were given and do the best job while no one is watching and the respect and honor will follow you. Mixed results of work efforts are the outcome of your losing focus, forgive yourself, take a break and then start the process again. Trying to do your best beats failure to perform.

Osun says be polite and respectful to young people, especially the ones that react impatient or rude with you. Love, mothering and positive words will show them the behavior that you expect from them. Pray and ask the divine mother of love for strength to stop arguing with the people that you love. Pray and ask to help you have a meeting of the hearts and minds with the people you love. Pray and ask for help for your family to treat each other with love respect. Family members are important support for you as you are for them; continue to pray for your children and partners that are spiritually lost to help them find their high spiritual selves. The energy of love will seal the day with successful partnerships, love relationships and special friendships that bring balance and harmony to all participants.

Affirmation of the Day: I am a good and blessed person*** and "all is well in the world". Say it 3x each time you say it, speak it aloud to build the courage to bend the divine will within you. ASE

Greet your day with a smile and love in your heart

Thank the Divine Mother Spirit for sending you good fortune from the hands of strangers.

Ofo Ase- Words of Wisdom 3-27-2010- Control Your Emotions

Osun, one of the divine mothers says, today is a high emotion filled day, remain in control your emotions and stay away from heated emotional discussions. Recognize that the emotional energy on the planet is fluid and highly charged feelings dominate and overflow in regular interactions. People that you meet will have high emotional states, most will seek to discharge heavy emotional energy by creating unnecessary dramas, conflicts and situations. Take care that these pop up argument-type situations do not emotionally drain you, as the day continues. To avoid feeding into conflicts, say inner prayer for peace, use the mothering emotions to soothe ruffled feathers. The divine love of mothering will nurture highly emotional people with the spirit of love and will build a strong loving heart in you. Mothers, protect your young ones from the actions of emotionally defective evil-minded people lacking self control that enjoy harming children.
Osun says today brings lessons about foolishness that sends the wrong message to the children. Don’t think just because children want to have something, or children want to do something, they are suppose to do it, have it or participate in or wear it or be it. When you fulfill children’s desires that are foolish, they learn that their desires rule and although they received no satisfaction from it, the joy is getting what you want. You are reinforcing foolish behavior and belief that their desires should come before their needs like maintaining shelter, paying bills, fulfilling commitments and being responsible. Do not repeat past mistakes of fulfilling your children’s desires of things, people and places that created problems for your family. You already knew before they asked that it was wrong for them. Be proactive: ask yourself; do I think that the consequence of my child’s desire will be good for them. Think about what will happen to them in the future because you allowed their foolish desires to overtake their self control. Start teaching your child to desire to do good things, be around good people and go to good places and then that is the road that they will follow in their adult lives. Teaching them the wisdom of being around good people and having good character will follow them and no matter what issues they face, your children will stand on solid ground.
Osun says on this day protect your heart from the actions of harsh heartless and indifferent people that enjoy causing others pain. Do not absorb their actions as correct or as permanent, situations change with the proper assistance. Seek out the help you need to defeat any action against you. Ask your honorable ancestors to aide you in favorable resolution of your situation. Try asking people that treat you like family and your ancestors, to you for help to come up with solutions for your financial hardships; this is a good day to open the door to family unity . . . Remember your affirmation: I am a good and blessed person. Say it 3x each time you say it, speak it aloud to chase away unwanted negative emotions. ASE
Greet your day with a smile and love in your heart
Thank the Divine Mother Spirit for helping you to control your emotions and giving you the opportunity to share divine mothering

Ofo Ase- Words of Wisdom 3-26-2010

Osun, one of the divine mothers says beware the air of uncertainty is strong, indecisiveness brings contradictory thoughts, feelings and actions; therefore hold off from making important personal or business or legal obligations until you can seek spiritual advice for the best decision and the ability to feel confident in it. Let decisions rest for a day before making long term commitments. The right answers will come to you.

Osun, says today there are many factors in your favor for financial gains and success for current ventures. Belief in your own will and ASE (inner power) to overcome negative circumstances and achieve success prevents failure. Pray to your divine spirit to help you to love yourself and others. Ask for help, to learn to show the proper respect for the ASE (Inner Power) in yourself and others. Ask for help,to be able to appreciate everyone’s contribution of ASE that improves the quality of human life.

Osun says spend time to day appreciating the family and friends in your life, think about why you love them and how much you love them. Use those feelings of love to stop you from hurting people that you love with sharp words and actions, the consequences will deeply affect the future relations between all parties involved.

Osun says good and gentle character must be worked out in private, to avoid the pitfalls of self–conceit, and the desires of power and control over others. Try to stop wielding your power and control over others. True love interactions represent free and openly given expressions, if you don’t feel it, do not fake it. It is better to live alone in peace than to lie to yourself and another about your true feelings. In time, lies will bring greater hurt and pain than the truth.

Osun says be prepared for the abundance of ideas that overflow from you and through you. The wisdom of the ancestors will send answers, to solve your problems, as they arise. The overflow creative ideas are a blessing and should not be used to create a plan against someone else. Set a trap for someone; be careful that you do not fall into the trap that you set. Generous gifts are a welcomed surprise; honor and success arrive for people in law, religion and education.

Osun says protect yourself for becoming sick by cleansing with blessed black soap or praying over all soap you use to protect you getting an illness or disease. Black soap is better when blessed by babalowo, iyanifa, priestess or priest. When you feel you ill, ask the divine mother spirit to show you the path to wellness to restore your mindbodyspirit to good health. The greater the sickness, the less energy you have to wage war to reclaim your health, you will need spiritual guidance and spiritual work, visit your spiritual leader to get help. Remember your affirmation: I am a good and blessed person. Say it 3x each time you say it, speak it aloud to chase away unwanted negative energy. ASE

Greet your day with a smile and love in your heart

Thank the Divine Mother Spirit for fullness of ASE (inner power)

The Divine Mother Spirit is on earth to balance injustices, call on the divine mother’s love when you find yourself in situations that appears to be verbally or emotionally abusive. Say Divine Mother, love me, help me, save me from those that want to control me. Look within for help to receive comfort and protection from the harm of others

Osun says develop a relationship with the good ancestors that guided you as a child and take advantage of your deceased elders of good character to seek advice and wisdom.

Speak to them, tell them your woes and pray daily at your ancestral altar for peace, wisdom and guidance. You will see your world change and you will begin to manifest the desires of your heart-whether good or bad. Things, people, places will open up for you; however choose to follow the path of good and gentle character to achieve the satisfaction of living a long life of honor and respect.

Ofo Ase-Words of Wisdom 3-24-2010

Osun -one of the divine mothers says today keep your head cool and your tongue still; and avoid using words that destroy others’ character. Sharp tongues will lead to thoughtless actions that cause attitudes and mean spirited exchanges. Negative energy wakes up oppressive people that feed on others’ weaknesses and states of confusion. Steer clear of people that are bullies, you will know them by the joy they receive from others suffering and pleasure in showing aggressive and cruel behavior. Worries and concerns about all issues can be overwhelmingly draining; write down all your problems and put them on your altar, then ask your ancestors to send you the wisdom to solve them.

Osun says that money rides with confident people, fears and doubts in the lack of money translate into self-fulfilling prophesy. Create your vision board for wealth and change your concepts about wealth, believe in your right to have all that you need and want. Your family and your health can not be replaced with money. Share what you have with others that you know need it. You can build wealth by identifying good money management businesses, link with people that manage money funds that invest in things that you believe in, and create a healthy vision of stewardship. You will increase your income and wealth, while increasing the life of the planet. Invest in businesses that invest and respect the resources of Mother Earth.

Osun says that good ideas and good action does not always equal the success you anticipate in the short term; however have faith and develop patience and then your success will come. Use good judgment when seeking partners, friends, and roommates to share living space, allow the content of their character and not their looks to speak for them. Look closely at appearances, they are deceptive and quiet but, character and behavior speak loudly about them. Meetings with influential people that share your ideas go well, use this meeting time to demonstrate your proficiency as a leader with valuable ideas and skills.

Osun says you are goodness in an action; keep demonstrating yours and others will follow you. Today as you meet with difficult people; recognize that it is a trap to follow their lead and be difficult too. Balance your heart and your heart actions, to think good thoughts, to show kindness and to speak words of love and healing to calm anger, strife and tension. Continue to pray to remain safe and strong through the adverse conditions. Trust in your own goodness to be triumph over other people’s problems.

You are a good and blessed person. You do not have to operate in the realm of the unenlightened souls to get along with them. Let your spiritual light shine, give blessings to everyone you meet and you will be able to live without regret and dissatisfaction. Goodness draws goodness! Bend to the will of the divine spirit inside of you to do good for yourself and others. Good actions build a better world but, negative actions tear down our world .

Repeat affirmation throughout day: (Say aloud) I am a good and blessed person, say it 3x every time you say it** to reinforce your ASE (inner power) and receive as many doses of good spiritual nourishment that you need from the divine mother spirits to nurture the wounds of stressful days. ASE-O

Greet your day with a smile and love in your heart
