If a man wearing black and red stops you on the street asking for money, you better give him some money.

Real ones know. That’s Baba Esu, the opener and closer of all roads. The dualistic enforcer of law and justice. He frequently interacts with us in the physical more than any other orisha. He shows up FREQUENTLY in this world as a houseless person.

Before we give any orisha offering, we give Esu the offering first for him to bless it.

When we give Esu offerings, he’ll give a portion of it to the Ajogun (the negative forces) so we have a clear path on whatever we’re trying to manifest and to avoid disaster

When Esu blesses you, ain’t nothing gonna get in the way of that. But if you decide to try him? Esu loves a good game and he will wear you out. Esu will win every time. Made this thread way back, check it out. https://twitter.com/ehimeora/status/1256615609137344515?s=20

Esu RULES over transportation. I repeat:

If a man wearing black and red asks you for money on the street, on the bus, on the train, on the plane, you better give him some money. He wants to bless you and/or save you from something.

And before you travel, you better toss some coins, some candy, some liquor (or anything because he eats everything) at the 4-way intersection telling him “K’Esu gba (“Here, Esu“). Safe travels please.”

And he got you.

Bookmark this tweet and come back to it if you need to because Esu is funny. Once he knows that you know he exists, he’s gonna be on your block waiting for offerings like

For my readers who want more an expansive post on Esu, you already know I got a post on him on my patreon. I made it a free post for 24 hours, catch your life! https://www.patreon.com/posts/39401419 

And if you’re an audio/musical person my Baba @FalowoOjose made a 2:38 minute track on Baba Esu that teaches you a lot

Okay I’m done updating this thread, it’s closed! The way it’s doing numbers tells me Esu is at work. If you wake up and see a man with black and red tomorrow, you know what to do and what it means.

And also, please don’t go bug Esu for no reason he will trick you Goodnight!
