Now available at Nicholas Brooklyn Repost @adikabutler ・・・ Da Homey in Modern Dahomey is part personal memoir, part ethnography, part theoretical social science. This elegant and poignantly written work of literature explores my visit to Benin in January 2019 complete with full color photography by me. It is a rich and highly nuanced contribution to the body of information concerning the Vodun tradition of Benin in West Africa and its cultural relevance to Humanity past, present, and future. There is a particularly unique and inspiring message directed at the descendants of slaves who were shipped across the Atlantic ocean on horrific bruise cruise lines to the Caribbean, North, Central, and South America. In the spirit of cultural anthropologist, Zora Neale Hurston, I spent time speaking with Vodun priests and practitioners in Benin to deliver a message that will be a reference point for further exploration as other writers, researchers, and scientists (hard science and social science) catch up to what is written here in the years ahead.

Posted @withregram • @tauinetworkeurope Hetepu beautiful people, willing your persons are having a Nefer weekend. As we’ve mentioned before, nothing in the universe is possible without energy. Now that we are in the Sekher cycle (a part of our spirit responsible for energy, spiritual power and destiny), we must look more closely at this word ’Energy’, it's meaning and importance to our spiritual development. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ”The spiritual forces that operate directly on physical matter and events are none other than our emotions. ”Energy” is defined as the capacity to do work, or to alter the state or position of a thing or event. Essential, then to the definition of energy, is motion. Alteration can only take place through movement. And that is what e-motions do. What we have to understand here, is that our emotions are not limited to moving us to speak and take physical actions, but they can act directly in the world independently of our physical vehicle. This is due to the fact that they are physical energies; this is why we can feel them, and speak of them as our feelings. Yes! What we call our emotions are expressions of the same energies that operate in the universe.”⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Maat the 11 laws of God - page 66⠀⠀ Auther: Ra Un Nefer Amen⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Follow us for more insights into the Sekher part of our spirit. ⠀⠀ ⠀ #Tauinetworkeurope #AusarAusetSociety #africanspirituality #africanreligion #blackhealth #health #blackhistory #blackwomen #blackmen #africanculture #peace #meditation #spirituality #kamit #kemet #ancientwisdom #magik #ancestors #sekhert #Divine #God #nature #mooncycles #fullmoon #lunarcycle #orishas #consciousness #Motivation #MorningMotivation https://www.instagram.com/p/CDH98BsjXpM/?igshid=z3w93dpotkpa

Whew. Shit. 2021. Only got the spirits & my #Ancestors & Guides & my lovers & friends & Hoodoo community to thank for getting me through that one. I saw the mighty get small and the weak grow wings this year. I cried more than I've ever cried since I was born this year...and I was born completely silent so that's saying something. I was reinitiated into myself this year. So Imma just keep threading these Ancestral pearls along like beads on a string. Even if that 2021 pearl was a lil' gritty 😬🤍🐚 . . . #Hoodoo #Rootwork #Conjure #Ancestors #Vodou#Voodoo #africanreligion #Blackwomen #blitches#blackwitches #blitchesofinstagram #AfricanSpirituality#Blackspirituality #Juju #scorpioseason https://www.instagram.com/p/CYLKdJuLHHp/?utm_medium=tumblr
