- Holy Odu Idika

When your road is obstructed - either because of something you have done or because of what someone else has done - Esu is the one who will open the way. Likewise, when your road is unobstructed, it is Esu who will keep the way open for you.

May Esu open the way to all good things in your life. May the obi you offer be sufficient to push away blockages and limitations. Ase! May Esu close the road on your adversaries and detractors. Ase! May the road of sickness, death, loss, negativity and litigation be closed for you. Ase! The road lives! May you enjoy safe passage on the way to ascending the throne of your destiny. Ase!
