🛑 HOW DO I KNOW MY ANCESTORS? HOW DO I KNOW AND SETTLE MY CHI? 🛑 Read this slowly… this might change your understanding forever. A lot of people are confused about this, so let me make it very simple. 🔸 WHO ARE YOUR ANCESTORS? First of all… You are a human being. Your ancestors are your forefathers — your father, your grandfather, your great-grandfather… the people that lived before you. They are not evil. They are your blood. They are your root. They lived, they died, but their spirit still speaks. 🔸 HOW DO YOU KNOW YOUR CHI? This is where many people get it wrong. You can know your Chi in different ways: 1️⃣ Through birth Sometimes, when you were born, things were not normal. Maybe your father was suffering during your mother’s pregnancy Maybe everything was hard and nothing was working Then immediately you were born, things changed Your father may go for consultation, and that is where your Chi, destiny, and reincarnation (Ilo uwa) will be revealed. 2️⃣ Through signs as a child Some children show signs early: Dada (natural dreadlocks) Falling sick when hair is cut Unusual spiritual signs Parents will become worried and go for consultation. They will be told who has returned and what must be done. 3️⃣ Through dreams Some people see their Chi directly in dreams. The Chi can come and say: “I am your Chi.” That is how I knew my own. I saw mine, I told my father, he confirmed it through consultation. That is how my Chi was acknowledged and settled, i never went to consult Afa for my Chi, my Chi came to me himself. 🔸 CAN YOU CALL YOUR CHI IF YOU DON’T KNOW THE NAME? Yes. Very well. Your Chi is you. Even if you don’t know the name, you can say: “My Chi, I know you hear me. Come and guide me. Come and open my way.” Simple. ⚠️ In fact, it is better not to mention any name than to call the wrong Chi. Calling the wrong one is dangerous. 🔸 HOW DO YOU ACKNOWLEDGE OR SETTLE YOUR CHI? You can: Pray to your Chi Appreciate your Chi Offer kola or simple items Say: “You that is my Chi, I call you today. I acknowledge you. As I feed you, let us become one.” That is enough. 🔸 WHAT ABOUT YOUR WATER (MMIRI CHI UWA)? Listen carefully. Not every water you should carry home. Some people rush and go and bring water to their house… and their life becomes hard immediately. ⚠️ Some waters will reject you. ⚠️ Some waters will bring problems. If you want to work with water: ✔️ Go there ✔️ Pray there ✔️ Leave it there Simple. Any Dibia advising you to bring your water home should teach and explain the Do and Don't 🔸 HOW DO YOU KNOW YOUR ANCESTORS PROPERLY? The best way? Go to your elders. Sit down with them. Let them tell you stories. Your lineage Your great-grandfathers How your family started That is your real history. That is your connection. 🔸 WHAT IF THERE ARE NO ELDERS? Then do this: Call them generally. Say: “My ancestors, my Ndi Ichie, the people that walked this earth before me, I call upon you.” You don’t need to know all their names. They will hear you. 🔸 HOW TO PRAY (SIMPLE WAY) You can say: “My Chi, my ancestors, my spirits of the land, all my entities of power, come and guide me, come and open my way.” That is connection. 🔥 FINAL WORD Your Chi is not far from you. Your ancestors are not strangers. They are your blood. Start simple. Start with truth. Start with respect. Everything will begin to open. If this touched you, read it again.
