EP 46 | Afro-Ancestral Meditation

 🌻Hey, the Afro Fairy Goddess here, Happy New Year! Um, I mean, I don't say Happy New Year due to the Gregorian calendar, per se, but I will say Happy New Year in terms of the idea of spring, and that is now coming into the fold, I guess, in another three weeks or so, roughly. 🌻The year has started and so much has started with it and I didn't, know if to post it here or post it privately on the Patreon or just to keep it to myself or to just my close friends and family. But I did do a divination for the new year, but it was more against outside of the winter and all this other stuff.🌻So I decided to just say what I have to say and whoever listens and is touched by it can use it to help them and so on and so forth.

*Trigger Warning: Conversations about interrupted pregnancies aka (abortion) come up in this discussion.* Hey Fairy Fam, in this episode for The Afro Fairy Goddess Podcast, I bring a new friend Dr. Emilie “Zila“ Jabouin who I met, through the season of Emancipation here in Barbados via my extended community work offline. Listen up as we talk about Haitian arts, space and spirituality and how it connects to dance.  We also spoke heavily on her project, “The Release” which uses Ayisyen (Haitian) Folk dance, drumming and singing to challenge misconceptions of interrupted pregnancies. 'The Release' explores the multiple and complex emotions, social and personal pressures of black women and Afro-descendant Caribbean child bearers’ experiences with bodily autonomy and the question of choice. Red and black cover art, was taken from "The Release". The photo of Dr. Jabouin was taken by Dawit Tibebu. ____________________ Follow her here: Website: ⁠https://www.emirj.ca/dance-moving-through-healing⁠ Linkedin: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/emiliejabouin/⁠ Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/zila_danceandresearch?igsh=Njl3anNzOXN5dzdi⁠ ________________________ Check me on these links: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theafrofairygoddess/membership Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCc2FQ1Lb0an8uz_JgHXzPSg Website: www.theafrofairygoddess.com

After the passing of Hurricane Beryl, Oya and Yemaya had some things to remind me of - one of those things was time and memory plays an integral role into time traveling... ^_^ I'll probably do a deeper podcast episode about this later but here are some opening thoughts. -------------------------- Check me on these links: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theafrofairygoddess/membership Website: www.theafrofairygoddess.com

This meditation was a long time coming, and even longer to soundscape but it was all worth it in the end. This is not a ritual of any kind, this is a guided meditation, to help those, who may not know how, or are unsure how to speak or talk with the ancestors. This meditation is for those who knew their ancestors intimately, those who have been adopted, and of course, for those ancestors who are unknown. It is with care and honor that I give this to the community.

My January did NOT go as planned. I had everything listed and ready to go and then I got the call that my spiritual mother and mentor had collapsed. She has since transitioned. I feel sad and angry and currently wondering how I will continue the work. In this episode you hear my thoughts on it all and why 2024 for me, is the work of the Elders and the Eggun (Anestors). -------------------------- Check me on these links: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theafrofairygoddess/membership Website: www.theafrofairygoddess.com Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCc2FQ1Lb0an8uz_JgHXzPSg

Happy Yule Season and Happy Winter Solstice to you all.  Which by the time you hear this, it will probably be the day after I am hoping! I decided to do a quick podcast here about Boundaries.  Both the "muggle" and the spiritual kind.  Tis the season for butting up on energy that you would rather not, sometimes it’s not so bad - other times it’s hell.  There is a lot of energy moving around at the end of the year, and a lot of internal work is encouraged at this time. -------------------------- Check me on these links: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theafrofairygoddess/membership Website: www.theafrofairygoddess.com Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCc2FQ1Lb0an8uz_JgHXzPSg Email: [email protected]

Hey Fairy Fam, This episode should have gone out yesterday, but the flu has been kicking my ass! I am feeling better, but I am on the tail end and just trying to get through this cough in my chest - sigh In any case, this week's episode was about initiation - and why it's ok not to be. Have a listen!

Hey Fairy Fam! This episode was not scripted at all but I really wanted to talk about being middle age. We don't seem to talk about it a lot and from my experience, a big secret until you get into your twilight years. To be transparent, I don't have any of those answers yet, as I am soon getting to that journey myself, but I hope for those who are going through the same thing, but didn't know how to ask the questions, the ones I have put forward, helps with your complexities at this time!
