YORUBA CHARMS [AFRIKA SCIENCE]

The African culture is so fascinating and interesting

although many view it as being backward and uncivilized. A typical Yoruba charm Although there are beliefs that the so called western science is well advanced and protected by patents that make it look more sophisticated. However, only a few of these African culture critics know that the western science also has its roots in the same principles as that of Africa. While most Africans use these powers for negative ventures, the whites glory in using the powers to invent stuff that bring about societal advancement. See below some of the popular Yoruba charms and their meanings below: 

1. Ijaya Literally, the word ‘Ijaya’ in Yoruba language means ‘to frighten’. It is a charm used in frightening an enemy or an antagonist. It is also used in taking advantage of someone; the person keeps mute while you express your opinion and explore every good things to your advantage. It causes overwhelming fear unreasonably to human and animals. 

 2. Eru This is closely related to ‘Ijaya’. It means ‘Fear’. If ‘Eru’ is placed on someone, he or she will be afraid of you forever when around your vicinity. Most armed robbers make use of this to make their victims afraid of them.

 3. Mayehun (Refuse me not) it is used when you want a person to grant your request after a command is made) could be used in wooing a lady, request money from people, Miser, tight-fisted friend or wealthy man. There is a simple incantation that goes with some Mayehun formulas:

"In Yoruba Language; Orun Lo ngba towo omode Orun Lo ngba towo agba " x5

Translation: "Sleep takes from the young Sleep takes from the old Part of the preparation goes thus. You put a cowry (cowrie shell) in each hand when going to sleep . The following morning it would have dropped from your hands. Pick them up and pound them (to powder) with the herbs". 

 4. Afose This means ‘to speak and it happens’. It is an advanced form of ‘Ase’. It is usually prepared with black soap and put inside an Animal’s horn e.g Cow’s, Antelope’s, Cow’ e.t.c Whenever Afose is used, the words spoken happens immediately or later in the future depending on the potency of the charm or the nature of the issue the Afose is addressing. Yoruba forefathers possessed some Afose to address nature elements such as rain, fire, outbreak e.t.c and on the negative size to curse.

I personally had one that i use to stop a car from starting also have seen one that is use to dry up a very big tree in three days.

The tree was cursed with that Afose

with Afose you could place a curse on somone or any Object be it animated or Non. 

 5. Gbetugbetu

This is more of a hypnotizing charm. The person under the spell doesn't really know what he is doing. It is used in compelling people to do the most impossible things. Things they would naturally not do or refuse to do. It is somewhat difficult to prepare but there are some simple formulas too, however they also vary in degree of potency. The powerful ones that I know has in it as part of its ingredients the rope that a man hanged himself with. To illustrate its power I would narrate an incident that happened which was manipulated by the use of Gbetugbetu. A friend once used it to call a stubborn but pretty lady into his room. (Normally she would have shunned him right off.) When she got inside he commanded her to strip, which she instantly did, but he didn't touch her. 3 days later the girl came to her senses, she confronted my friend and an argument broke out. It was settled but after that incident the girl avoided my friend from then onward. Moral of story -- You don't play such jokes 'cos you've got the power. Our forefathers used it when they were attacked by a gang of thieves; they just commanded them to fight (each other) or hand over their weapons

7.Ijaya

(To Frighten). A charm used in frightening an adversary or an antagonist in a place of work, school e.t.c or is there anyone you want to take advantage of that you want him/her to keep mute while you express your opinion and explore every good things to your advantage. Ijaya will do it all. it causes overwhelming fear unreasonably to human and animals.
