How Odu Calculation Works

The Odu numbers are calculated from a date by:

  1. Splitting the date (DD/MM/YYYY) into left and right digit columns
  2. Summing each column and reducing to 1-16
  3. Calculating directional values:
    • North: Sum of left column
    • South: Sum of right column
    • East: North + South
    • West: North + South + East
    • Center: Sum of all directions

Usage Example

import { calculateOdu } from 'kaabalah/ifa';


const odu = calculateOdu(new Date('1990-06-15'));
console.log(odu.north);  // North direction Odu
console.log(odu.center); // Center/synthesis Odu
