Esu-Elegba: Ifa and the Divine Messenger by Awo Fa'lokun Fatunmbi explores the complex nature of Esu, the Orisha who governs communication, choice, and the crossroads of destiny. Fatunmbi presents Esu as the essential intermediary between humans and the divine, the one who interprets and delivers messages from the spiritual realm. The book emphasizes Esu’s role in maintaining balance and justice, often through paradox and disruption, challenging rigid perceptions of morality. Through myth, ritual, and philosophical insight, Fatunmbi reveals how Esu embodies the dynamic forces of change and consciousness. Ultimately, Esu emerges not as a trickster in the Western sense, but as a sacred force who ensures that every action meets its consequence and every path its proper opening.
