Ifa is equal to 16

Ifa = I+F+A = 9+6+1 = 16

16 stands for base 16, such that Ifa is base 16

Since Ifa is base 16, the sixteen numbers in Ifa are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,:7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15

When converted from base10 to base2, the sixteen numbers are 0000 0001 0010 0011 0100 0101 0110 0111 1000 1001 1010 1011 1100 1101 1110 1111

These sixteen binary numbers are the sixteen principal ODU. Each is called an ODU Ifa.

Black light is made up of six repeating units of the first ODU.

0000 = first ODU

Black light = 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000

= ODU ODU ODU ODU ODU ODU

White light is made up of six repeating units of the last ODU:

1111 = last ODU

White light = 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 = ODU ODU ODU ODU ODU ODU

Each ODU with it's base10 equivalent:

0000 = 0

0001 = 1

0010 = 2

0011 = 3

0100 = 4

0101 = 5

0110 = 6

0111 = 7

1000 = 8

1001 = 9

1010 = 10 = A

1011 = 11 = B

1100 = 12 = C

1101:= 13 = D

1110 = 14 = E

1111 = 15 = F

Black light is #000000

White light is #FFFFFF

Where 0 = 0000

And

F = 1111

Ifa as a religion is black light at #000000

Converting Ifa from #000000 to #111111 is switching on the light.

Ifa = Light

Increasing the dimmer and intensity is converting Ifa from black light (blackout) to bright white light.

Apart from black and white Ifa has other colours of light which confers beauty. These colours are products of three colours call RBG.

R = red

B = blue

G = green

Red RGB Color

=  #FF0000

= 1111 1111 0000 0000 0000 0000

= 15 15 0 0 0 0

Green RGB Color

= #00FF00

= 0000 0000 1111 1111 0000 0000

= 0 0 15 15 0 0

Blue RGB Color

= #0000FF

= 0000 0000 0000 0000 1111 1111

= 0 0 0 0 15 15

Yellow is:

Yellow RGB Color

= #FFFF00

= 1111 1111 1111 1111 0000 0000

= 15 15 15 15 0 0

The sixteen principal ODU are arranged in different patterns to emit other colours of light.

Some examples are:

Magenta / Fuchsia #FF00FF (255,0,255)

Gray #808080 (128,128,128)

Maroon #800000 (128,0,0)

Olive #808000 (128,128,0)

Green #008000 (0,128,0)

Purple #800080 (128,0,128)

Teal #008080 (0,128,128)

Navy #000080

These colours emitted by Ifa makes it an undisputable beauty.

Ifa light is emitted as white and coloured strobes during White party, sunshine party and tropical part. The light was seen during the 2025 feragosto.
