All people are not equal; let your hands be clue.


This proverb was shared with me by a Yoruba man, my friend and teacher. He wanted to explain the rank of blessings, all of which are essential. But when a person is blessed in a particular way, they become a greater among equals. And so, we rank the five blessings this way:

5. Victory. What’s your understanding?
What does Ifa say?
