Hello George,

I've had someone who has been doing research on Latin phrases from a seance look at the phrase you gave us. I've had to wait for the response. He couldn't really get a coherent meaning out of it. This is what he got, in his words:

George's query: OMI ESNA DEUS OSINARA

I would say he's correct: Esna, upper Egyptian city god, and Deus means God in Latin. OMI has turned up nothing relevant so far, except that it's people's (male) name in Tanzania.
Unless it's perhaps meant to be OMNI which means 'All' in Latin, and used in conjunction with a Deity; Esna Deus, it would perhaps make
more sense, as in: The All, or The 'Great'.
The Great God Esna

Osinara doesn't sound (Classical) Latin to me, and I haven't found any relevant references to this word anywhere yet except in Basque.

My Basque is terrible, but I know OSINARA is a Basque word. I think it basically means 'river', but I'll check later with a fluent speaking
friend and let you know. Though it obviously wouldn't be consistent with the rest of the words in this phrase if it was Basque.

George, we're still working on it. We'll just have to see whether anything else comes up.

Love and peace, Craig
