A nairalnder picture at the ongoing Ogun festival in ondo town. More pic to be updated soon. OGUN: Lord Of Iron = God of War A Deity That Strikes Heavily. He Has Water @ Home, But Bathes With Blood. He Has Clothes, But He Prefers Palm Fronds. Ogun Possesses Two Cutlasses One For Cutting Grass, The Other For Making Marks. He Uses Robe Of Fire As His Cover. A Shirt Of Blood Is What He Puts On.When Ogun Came Into The World He Asked For Palm wine When He Got To Ire Town. Ogun's House Is Full Of Wealth....Do Not Fight Playfully With Ogun. God Of Iron Is Seven.( Oya Is Nine ) Ogun Alara = Dog !! Ogun Onire = Ram !! Ogun Ikola = Snail !! Ogun Elemona = Roasted Yam !! Ogun Akiran = Ram!! Ogun Gbena-Gbena = Carpenters Offer Tree Sap !! Ogun Makinde *** Do Not Use The Sword or Knife To Play With The God Of Iron.. !!! Ogun Is A Very Truthful Deity. Iron is sacred to him, and when swearing by Ogun it is usual to touch an iron implement with the Ilorgue. The name Ogun seems to mean "One who pierces" (gun, to pierce, or thrust with something pointed). He is specially worshiped by blacksmiths, and by those who make use of iron weapons or tools.The usual sacrifice offered to Ogun is a dog, together with fowls, palm oil, and minor articles of food. A proverb says, "An old dog must be sacrificed to Ogun," meaning that Ogun claims the best; and a dog's head, emblematic of this sacrifice, is always to be seen fastened up in some conspicuous part of the workshops of blacksmiths. 1 Like
