Awo

Awo is a traditional Yoruba concept that signifies spiritual power, authority, or influence. It is believed to emanate from one's character, actions, and inherent spiritual energy, enabling individuals to impact their environment and relationships positively. Awo is often associated with wisdom, integrity, and the ability to navigate life's challenges effectively. In cultural practices, it underscores the importance of inner strength and moral virtue in gaining respect, success, and communal harmony. Rather than a tangible object, awo represents the intangible qualities that contribute to a person's leadership and spiritual presence within Yoruba society.
