His Guardian Angel warned him not to be so sour so he would not fall into paranoia, and marked him sacrifices to Olokun, Eshu, Ogún and to his Ifá along with his head. Ogún agreed to go with him into the world; Olokun refused. On earth his predictions did not come true and he fell into poverty; he repeated the sacrifices with borrowed money and practiced Ifá at the market, paid his debts and won his clients back. He fell in love with Olokun's daughter, who refused him for being rough; dressed in white and having given another goat to Eshu, she accepted. Even so she did not become pregnant: he served Olokun with a pigeon, white cloth, parrot feathers, cascarilla and cowries, and Ogún with a dog — and she gave birth to a boy they called Money. He prospered, had more wives and children, and the first was more famous than his parents.
Before leaving heaven he got a warning from his Guardian Angel: on earth he would have to hold back his sour temper and his constant blaming, because if not he risked a mental breakdown and paranoia. That same warning set his offerings: for Olokun, the water divinity, a lot of cowries, cascarilla and white cloth along with a dove; for Eshu, a goat; for Ogún, a dog and also a rooster; and a castrated goat that served both his Ifá and his head. He did it all. Right away he asked Ogún to come down with him, and Ogún agreed; he asked Olokun the same and she did not agree. Once on earth he opened a house of Ifá, though with little success: nothing he announced came true, none of his sacrifices gave a sign, people drifted away and poverty caught up with him. One night, asleep, he heard his Guardian Angel again telling him to get a reading. He went to other Awoses and the verdict was to repeat what he had already offered up above. He had nothing to do it with, so he borrowed the money. Then he moved his practice to the town market, and out of that came what he needed to pay off his debts; his work began to give results and clients believed in him again.
In that market he ran one day into Olokun's daughter and fell for her, but she did not want him: she found him too coarse. Dressed in white when he got home, he gave another goat to Eshu and did what he had been told in heaven; when he courted her again, she agreed to be his wife. From near the market she went with him to the house, and there they stayed as husband and wife. A long time passed and the pregnancy did not come, so he called the Awoses again: they told him to attend Olokun with a dove, white cloth and parrot feathers, cascarilla and cowries, and to attend Ogún with a dog. From then on Olokun's daughter settled down and stopped mocking him; in time she conceived and a boy was born, and they named him Money, and she kept working. With that birth prosperity came to him in full: he took other wives and raised many children, and that first one came to be better known than his parents. In Igbodu: grow a calm temperament, because the woman who will make you prosper must stay at your side even when she blows up; and you will have a child who will bring you fame and fortune as long as you keep up the sacrifices.
