It is within the interactive locus constituted by the divinatory process through the collaborative relationship between the Odu and the Ori, in which the Ori expresses its will through the Odu, that we wish to explore the possibilities of employing the hermeneutic process of the Ifa system as an interpretive matrix for exploring the manner in which reality is constructed through the creation of maps, in a dialogical relationship between inner and outer world as actualized in an oscillation between individual subjectivities, intersubjective realities and the physical cosmos. The process of oscillating between a textual framework, as represented by the Odu and specific questions which constitutes the divinatory process, could be seen as representative of the processes through which reality is constituted through the oscillation between the physical cosmos, and intersubjective and subjective worlds.
