TAROT IFÁ - Orishá & Ifá Traditions
A Transformative Guide to the Archetypes of the Orishás Through the Tarot
Step into a world where ancient African wisdom meets one of the most enduring spiritual tools of the West. In TAROT IFÁ - Orishá & Ifá Traditions, Babalorishá and Babalawo Tilo Plöger de Àjàgùnnà offers a groundbreaking synthesis that bridges the timeless power of the Tarot with the sacred teachings of Ifá, Candomblé, Santería, and other Afro-American traditions.
This richly illustrated and deeply researched book brings the 78 cards of the Tarot into alignment with the archetypes of the Orishás and the 256 Odu Ifá, revealing a powerful system for introspection, divination, and spiritual growth. Whether you are an initiated practitioner or a devoted seeker walking the Orishá path without initiation, this book opens a gateway to deeper understanding and daily connection with divine forces.
What you will discover inside:
A complete Tarot deck mapped to the Orishá cosmology, with each Major and Minor Arcana card linked to specific Orishás, myths, and Odu Ifá.
In-depth interpretations of each card, grounded in real stories from the Odu Ifá and the lived experience of the Orishás.
Unique Tarot spreads inspired by Orishás like Eshú's Crossroads, Yemanjá's Spiral of Harmony, and Oshumaré's Cycle of Renewal.
A respectful complement to traditional divination, never replacing sacred rites like cowrie or ikin readings, but offering a new layer of insight for daily practice and reflection.
Accessible to all, whether you're part of Candomblé, Santería, Traditional Ifá, Umbanda, or a solitary devotee yearning for a structured, authentic connection.
Written by the bestselling author of DAILY IFÁ, a widely read newsletter dedicated to Afro-American spiritual traditions, Tilo brings decades of experience, initiation, and scholarship to every page. His deep respect for tradition is matched by his visionary ability to adapt it meaningfully for contemporary seekers across the diaspora. Tilo is a bestselling author on Amazon having published dozens of books about the tradition.
This book is more than a tool.
It is a companion on your spiritual path. It invites you to reflect, grow, and align with the rhythms of the Orishás, while embracing the creative, symbolic power of the Tarot. Each chapter is a portal into divine mystery-rooted in African wisdom, yet open to your modern spiritual reality.
Whether you're searching for a new way to deepen your connection with the Orishás or looking for a transformative tool to guide your daily decisions, TAROT IFÁ offers both structure and soul.
