African spirituality and the power of women



Just talking about the potency of women in African spirituality. We have an important place, space to occupy and we should not shy away from it.

  13. The question of "patriarchy" and "submission" usually leads me to seek wisdom and guidance from men (absent father?) But as i continue to evolve and grow, im reconnecting (bc i was unconscious) to the power of divine femininity and the woman. I am beginnig to seek wisdom and guidance from women bc it is US who will change what's happening in our american black communities and on earth. #Gratitude for finding this sister.

  17. Every other culture always has a mother goddess. Only after european and muslim influences did the woman become less important than the man. With all i have learned i believe that the first human was a woman then came the male.

  22. Thank you Makeda. I have been watching your videos for a long time. I am really proud of the awakening you provide. African people around the world needs this knowledge now more than ever. We must conquer the enemy, through a spiritual awakening. Amun Ra.

  37. For some reason I don’t feel that connected to African spirituality (I’m Afro Caribbean) . I feel more connected to Native American spirituality. But I’m grateful for the information you provided 🙏🏽

  43. What do you do if you noticed that your bond between one of your children is off? You know you love them, but it feels harder to love them. I don't know if it's a teenager thing or is it a spiritual thing?

  44. I'm just finding this in 2024! I was told so many things in my spiritual path. One said because my mom was white that I shouldn't practice lol!!! But my grandmother on my dad's side was a powerful root worker. And I was trained by her. So I just ignore them and do what's in my heart. It's okay to blend too. My friends are from Ghana and Nigeria I've learned so much from the women elders too. So they are my spirit godparent and god siblings. I love that bond is important too.

  45. Thank God i am so greatful for this discovery. I never knew about this but i experience that. 05 years ago one of my cousin asked me through text message the full name of my late mom and i don't know why i didn't tell she in the contrary i ask she what was going on there. And she asked me to come and visit she. When i went there she didn't ask me anymore about my mom name and i didn't remind she. She started to tell my how she was jealous about me all through that time and that she knew that i was going through hard time because of my mom lost. But i shouldn't worry as from that day my life will change for better. I was so confused, i went back home and three days later her mom call me to tell me that she passed away. After that, the same year until today my life changed for better just like she told me. It is now that i understand better.

  47. As the timeless "Mother of God" (mother and son) iconography suggests, matriarchal and patriarchal spirituality are inseparable and coexist through an understanding of God's eternal cyclical nature.

    Represented by the serpent in many creation myths, the living cycle has a trinity of a beginning (head), a middle and end (tail). As above so below, the sexes were created in the image of God's cyclical nature where Mother is the head and opening to all beginnings and Father holds the tail to all endings (through which the sowing of seeds allow for the next great matriarchal rebirth).The joining of the two (symbolized by the Ouroborus or the marriage ring) is the sacred union needed in assuring the creation and continuation of new life cycles. To speak of the present day God as "Our Father" is simply an admission to our collective positioning within the bigger cycle.

    As all mothers have direct experience with the creator quality of birthing, so is the direct experience of rebirthing the divinity within (baptism) belong to that which is spiritually matriarchal. (John 3, verse 3-8).

    Sekhmet statues (ancient Egyptian) carry most of their weight in symbolic memory of what was a mother culture dedicated to the direct experience of baptism. As the leg shaped hairlocks extend from maternal breasts to the womb of rebirth, the lioness's head proportions are such that they highlight the bust of a second animal figure. The Lioness's ears as eyes and eyes as nose (nostrils) brings to life the figure of a reptile. 'Neath the halo headress of the solar egg, the lioness's egg fertilization process being internal (Set) and the reptile's egg fertilization process being external (Setting), such being key components to the safety of entering the trans-egoic or "born again" state. The life threatening fear associated with the predatory nature of a lion and/or crocodile encounter are reflective of the intense ego death experiences associated with the transpersonal awakening process.

    In spiritually matriarchal times, illumination could be seen as wearing the false beard (ancient Egyptian funerary "ego" death mask) as the high state/status of cyclical self knowing; high awareness of both our upper matriarchal half and our lower (later) patriarchal half (compared with a mini lower body replica, an "as above so below" tail end beard extension); in full recognition of her civilizational Underworld; her inevitable cyclical destiny. The male pharaoh wears his beard tapered in reverse, indicating a pointing upwards towards the patriarchal head, divine representative of God's tail end cycle.

    Mary's anointing and wiping of Jesus's feet with her hair can then be seen as "Head to tail" (toe) imagery as she descends her matriarchal head to his patriarchal feet, thus reenacting the high understanding of the divine cyclical process. (John 12, verse 3)

    To carry the Ankh (now the female symbol ♀️) was perhaps to symbolically carry that upper and lower understanding. As the upper matriarchal womb symbolized the fertile birthing of civilization, below, the now Christian cross is carried to place emphasis on the lower (later) "End Times" Father principle of the great cycle.

    Lord Ganesh, the elephant headed Hindu deity, displays a cyclical head to trunk symbolism and points to the Mother head of his matriarchal elephant society. Ganesh (like the elephant) wears God's cyclical nature on his face.

    A whole temple was dedicated to Hathor (ancient Egyptian deity), who is the matriarchal "Uterus" personified. https://youtu.be/J0m0zJSEFK0

    "See all women as mothers, serve them as your mother. when you see the entire world as the mother, the ego falls away. See everything as Mother and you will know God." – Neem Karoli Baba

    "My son, keep thy father's commandment and forsake not the law of thy mother" – Proverbs 6 : 20
