*Black Goddess Consciousness is defined as the spiritual, experiential and intellectual study of the ancestral remembrance, acceptance of Afrikan Matriarchy and the divinity, sacredness and hliness of the Great Mother/Divine Feminine in HER most ancient forms as the Afrikan Woman.

Udja Temple Ministries and Same Gender Relationships

2011-10-10T12:51:00.000-07:00

Over the past couple of years Udja Temple Ministries has received several e-mails from Sisters concerning their sexual preferences. We at Udja Temple Ministries hold fast to the idea that your preferences for whom you love are yours as Goddess to decide. We affirm your feelings, your love and ability to express that love with great respect, love and truth in our belief and knowledge that the Afrikan/Black Woman is Black Goddess. The expression of love is to be manifested by your own will and feelings, this is what makes you divine beloved! Many of you have been looking for a home, a place to feel the safety and love of other believers in the Great MWT. Udja Temple accepts you whole mind, body, spirit, soul and heart, we furthermore affirm that the sacred flame that is sexuality belongs to all Afrikan/Black Women including you. This power is undeniable and limitless, you as the living representative of Black Goddess in what we have termed Black Goddess Consciousness are the heir to such power. If used correctly and with divine intention great change can be brought about for our Sisters and for our people as a whole.

You also have many gifts to offer the work that Black Goddess Consciousness and Udja Temple are calling forth. We envision a community of Goddess loving, MAAT-Centric, Woman-Focused, Afrikan-Centered thinkers, builders, planners, laborers, architects, mathematicians, agriculturalists and educators. A community wherein the Afrikan Woman is the center and the matrix to whom we all look for guidance. This is a very ancient practice of love and respect centered around HER/SHE/YOU, this is an all hands on deck call, whomever holds your hands in your love-walk is divine to us. Your brilliance, your genius is what is called on now. We ask that you love yourself as Goddess enough to see the greatness in you first and foremost, we also offer place in Udja Temple for you and your beloved. Please accept our invitation to the building of a new thought, a new light and a New Earth. Welcome and Black Goddess Bless!

Lentil Soup

2011-08-24T07:09:00.000-07:00

For the last few weeks I have been touched by an angel, moreover a Goddess. Actually SHE has been with me for a year now. A wonderful and oft-tested year, and SHE has remained vigilant in HER love for me. In these last few weeks however I have SHE has more than attentive, you see I have suffered a set back in my digestive illness. I had lost some considerable wait, I suffered abdominal pain and I could not eat or drink without great difficulty. Some days I just did not eat. I eventually ended up in a local hospital, being "treated" and poked on, blood tests repeatedly, IVs, scans, x-rays. Prior to this my own beloved Goddess Meri-T (Susan) had just gone through HER own health crises. By the time of my own illness SHE fared a little bit better but still had some issues. Even with those issues of exhaustion etc. SHE maintained a vigil for me at the hospital, SHE was there by my side, SHE spoke to nurses and doctors to attend to me.

The hospital's alleged food was not from HER estimation that which I should consume. You see my beloved had taken time to study my condition and in doing so found the correct diet for me. HER attentiveness to my actual needs caused me to tell the staff not to bring me anymore food, that Meri-T would take care of my nutrition. needless to say they were shocked. They could not understand why their bacon and eggs and sugar and jello was not good for me. To make a long story short my beloved brought to me a wonderful Lentil Soup from a local restaurant along with assorted fruit. The soup smelled so good in contrast to the grotesque hospital food. I immediately began to consume said Lentil Soup, it warmed my digestive tract, it made my heart feel good. My intestines literally "felt" better instantly. I began to feel whole again. In my opinion the hospital staff simply re hydrated my body with the IVs, Meri-T did the rest. I was their needle cushion, their guinea pig for the interns and new doctors. Meri-T Seshat, my beloved companion healed me.

Let me get to my point. My beloved black Goddesses I see you, I hear you, I feel you. I see often your treatment of one another and my heart weighs heavy at this. I have heard you speak of one another with such ill will that it hurts me to the soul. It is my greatest desire for you to be successful in resting the spiritual power that has been taken from you back from the grips of others. Your sisters all of you suffer many of the same oppressive conditions, how is it that you are not unified in this vibration? Meri-T and I as companions share a genuine love for you a respect for our Afrikan Humanity and our love for Black Goddess. In our sharing of this energy we feel you as well so deeply. As I peer into your world as I have for years now, I can see the divine in you. In knowing the divine in you, in seeing your power and grace bless those of us who often do not deserve it. In knowing the history and crimes of Patriarchy against your bodies, minds and children, I have something to ask of you. Why do you treat each other with contempt at times? How can you not want for your sister what you want for yourself.

Truth be told many of you are making incredible strides in unifying the Black Goddess within to build for our future as a people. However the evil that I call Patriarchal Madness is still a source of angst. The time has come for ideas that I have been told all of my life about Afrikan Women and unity to die. Ideas like, you cannot live together or share properly. Concepts like you are too angry to come together and such. These ideas must die. I feel that this is a very special time for you. Now is the time for you to consider concepts like Communal Living and rearing children together. My brothers unfortunately will not side with you in many cases much less accept your divinity as Goddess. I am not surprised as no one gives up alleged power when they think they have it. Options like Communal Living are concepts that Udja Temple is reviewing for the betterment of you and our sisters and our babies. The return to an Afrikan Matriarchal construct for our people is the only way. Afrikan Women are the base for the teaching of MAAT, MAAT is Goddess, you are Goddess. Thus you can create system of living by separating from these old thoughts of disunity and return us to Earth-Centric living. We can live in areas wherein food can be grown, children can experience the Great Mother and Afrikan in their education. This can be done, you can create this. It can begin with a simple gesture of healing, a bowl of Lentil soup.

If your sister were to take ill, would you feed HER? Could you reach out and touch HER spirit with love and ask HER what SHE needs. Can you properly assess HER needs based on your own understanding of conditions you may have experienced? When Meri-T helped me to heal SHE did so from a place of understanding of who I am, it was not merely because SHE thinks I am cute, lol. SHE understood my condition, and SHE responded as my sister and companion. I am asking you to deliver Lentil Soup to your sistren. As I was healed by my beloved, your sister can be healed too! You can look into your Divine Afrikan selves and pull some magic forward to help your sisters. I am requesting of you to do less belittling of your sistren and more building. You need not argue over some half-baked, half-witted, alleged man that is no good for you or "Laquetta", lol. I am asking of you to do as I did and avoid this poison which is the food of the Patriarchy. Jealousy, bitterness and self-loathing are not your food. Your food, your Lentil Soup if you will can come from each other my sisters. I have preached to you before that now is the return of the Black Goddess. Afrikan Woman this is your hour, you are the Lentil Soup of healing for each other and for our families, our children. Udja Temple provides through our teaching of Black Goddess Consciousness, its own "Lentil Soup". You are encouraged to have dinner with us. This is a meal of good intentions and excellent outcome, of unity and love. We can unify to build this New Earth of which we speak. It matters not if the brothers don't hear you, or don't recognize your divinity, you are still Goddess. He does not validate your Goddesshood, this is yours by birthright. I urge you desperately to call on and love each other. Your time is now, your need is now, the call is here for you to unify. Open your souls and be fed!

New Earth, New Heaven...All In HER Holy Names!

2011-08-19T10:42:00.000-07:00

It has been a moment since we have communicated with you. We apologize for our delay, we were preoccupied with various issues that are now being resolved, Praise Goddess. We now return to our work, this very crucial work on behalf of you, our Black Goddess. Yes my love you and SHE are one and the same, this wisdom comes with experience and your experiences prove that you are divine. You have come this far not because of religion and the banter of men in pulpits but by your strength. Your strength be it the quiet and gentle or the roar of the Lioness in protection of HER family is powerful. Your sacred path is to live your fullest self, at all times in all places. It is our teaching in what we call Black Goddess Consciousness that your fullest self as Goddess is of great necessity, in fact the greatest necessity right now. Afrikan Women are crucial to the ascension of the planet to the next phase, the New Earth, if they do not, we do not ascend. You are the missing variable, the X-Factor, the unknown quotient. The original portal of life, love, light, peace, passion, joy, hope, is HER. SHE the unspoken of or even for, the uncounted, the most exploited and simultaneously the one of least blame is the one to whom we owe our very lives and yes our very future. Historically Black Women have moved against odds that are seeemingly insurmountable, what was it that made them surpass those incredibly immovable obstacles? I posit that there was an attitude these sisters had which demonstrated a highly improbable ability to succeed against everything that faced them.

You my beloved, now here in this place in this time are all of this energy, this powerful energy, this unstoppable force. Now it is time for you to use your power for the good of yourself...yes....YOURSELF! You have given all to others, particularly those who have not appreciated it. Now it is time for you to be utterly selfish. Now that sounds funny coming from a Priest who preaches Afrikan Unity amongst Afrikan Women and Families. Yet now is your time, I implore you to think of using your power to empower yourself. In this work of thinking on your spirit, your body, your minds you will find that you as the mother of all creation will save others. It is your genetic connection to the Most High who is your Great MWT (Mother), Black, Beautiful and Holy. SHE, The African Woman/Black Woman is a Natural Mystic, naturally adept at changing reality by accessing HER natural divine powers. Yes Sisters all that you imagine by working with the Sacred Power accessing the Goddess inside can shall come to pass.

As you look into the world and see your children dying in Somalia, and for that matter here in the states. From most ancient time WomanKind as an Afrikan, as a Dark Mother, as the essence of the beginning, the void if you will is central to human consciouness. Black Goddess Consciouness seeks a return to that time, yet with a new focus, the remembrance of HER as Goddess for the salvation of Afrikan people and subsequently the world. Surely SHE who laid the foundations of civilized behavior; fire, correct use of water, the tilling of the earth and the keeping of the air via plants and proper use of animals, surely this one would be Goddess. We believe this to be true, that SHE with whom civilization has found its foothold can be SHE who would bring about a new earth and a new way of living. It is your time, you can do this, you have done it before, this time, this place, this very moment belongs to the Afrikan Woman/Black Goddess.

Goddess Actually...Pt. II

2011-07-10T05:16:00.000-07:00

     In the beginning there was Womb and the Womb was and is Goddess and the Blackness therein was and is the Womb, and the Goddess was and is the Womb in and of HERself, there were none prior too and none to helpmeet any task for SHE was and is sufficient. SHE in HER Blackness and Wombness and Goddess-hood is enough. SHE had self and SHE turned HERself into the many things and phenomena and entities and molecules and cells and the coming together of HERself was and is the beginning for SHE never ends. SHE has been and is now infinite. SHE needed no helpmeet, nor assistance, SHE is water in the Blackness and Warmth, and Nurturing energy all that is needed for life and all of the things life needs were and are HERs. We shall move forward skipping the creation of things for now and take on the idea that as I stated before, "SHE needed no helpmeet..." as I understand some of you may have stopped reading at that point and then started reading again. Yes I said exactly that! Oh indeed SHE had the masculine principle within HERself definitely, SHE...S/HE....S/HE....S/HE sure did! So when S/HE decided to create self in HE/R own means in the time S/HE would choose, masculine energy was there...yet certainly not as great or greater than his mother! That would be absurd, even as we today say..."You never grow up to your Mama" I am saying to you, why would Mama need assistance from HER creation to create HERself.

     Now my beloved perhaps you are asking, well, Rev., Where is the man? I have to return the volley my love....Why was there "need" for man? Perhaps later after self-creation SHE decided to make it, to make the thing we now called man for HER own pleasure or displeasure however you choose to see it. Perhaps now that you are under the rather hypnotic spell of Old Spice commercials and the music of Teddy Pendergrass and such perhaps you thing you "must" have man? What I am saying is this...simply put your most primordial self the, you that is you is the you that is Black Goddess....Actually, and thus needs no permission, assistance nor anything to create or if you will pardon the assumption I have of your extreme power...RECREATE yourself. In the beginning was the Womb....the Womb produced the word, the word is not in some standalone status it needs a mouth....a Dark, Moist, Warm, Nurturing Mouth in which to be born...ya' silly!
The word....needs a Womb!!!!

     Now, we understand that Patriarchal thinking has us all confused to the point that even Afrikan Women who claim Goddess will state that they are, "...nothing without a black man...". One of our scholars of Black Goddess Consciousness did a lovely piece on this, at any rate, such an absurd thought. How can the Creatress of the Universe and all life within it be such? Now on a deeper philosophical level yes, SHE can be Nothing without anything..but that is another lesson for my more serious students of our teaching, Black Goddess Consciousness, (wink). On this level let us suffice it to say that it is a ridiculous notion that a mother of any child should say SHE is nothing without HER one child...when SHE can simply replicate 8 more just like the first one! Black Goddess is not defined by Motherhood, SHE defines all reality. SHE is not Goddess because SHE has children, SHE is often Goddess in spite of the lunacy of HER children. If your child grows up to disrespect womanhood thereby disrespecting one of the numerous powers of Goddess, how say you that the child has define womanhood. How dare you disrespect yourselves and your most ancient mothers by saying that you "need" your own creation, in this case, man!

     I know this is odd for a man to say this, I understand, this is a strange teaching, yet I see you often excuse the ill-behavior of the demented mind of Patriarchy. It is as if to say to O.J. Simpson....ooh O.J. stab me next! Or to Jeffrey Dahmer...Oooh put me in the fridge next! This is an even more odd thing. If you are to be Goddess Actually....and ye' shall, then you must not excuse madness that chooses to kill you. You should choose a life giving spiritual construct....something perhaps in a snug, Black Goddess Consciousness? Something that doesn't say to you, you are Goddess within some restraint? You see my beloveds Black Goddess Consciousness does not seek to encase you, nor entrap you in ideas of "need" of a being lesserthan thyself. You have had enough Saviour /Son/Messiah/Mahdi/Male/Prophet thingies. Yeah, those didn't quite work out now did they? Go to church, mosque, temple, ad nauseum and praise the male god/dude, tell him he is the head of your life as another guy is the head of his and still another is the head of his. Or perhaps you sat way in the back wherein you could not see the Imam dude telling you how stupid you are and evil and stuff, while you perspire underneath your black overlay of clothing so no one can see any parts of your beautiful Black, Brown, Tan, Honey colored bodies, you know all that rubbish.

     I have always been curious about a group of deities wherein there are no women involved....hmmmm? I shall leave that alone, just know that in this day and in this hour at this moment, you have the power to choose. My beloveds let me say that more appropriately...YOU HAVE ALWAYS HAD THE POWER TO CHOOSE, whom you should give your undying love to. I am suggesting that in this moment, give it to yourselves. Love yourself enough to know that you do not "need" a man to complete you. You are or should be completing yourself within yourself. I am not saying ignore the appetite for sexual relations, I am saying...CHOOSE, do not allow just any moron into your bed chamber, this invites disease of the spirit. You are precious my love, you were created so by your mother, the Great MWT, the first essence of reality who is reality HERself. the SHE that is within you my love speaks to you should you CHOOSE to listen. I don't want you to be sick anymore, I don't want you hurt anymore, I prefer you not to be in pain any longer. I am a man, I know the machinations of men, I hear them talk. Although many have stopped talking to me lol. Black Goddess Consciousness will never teach a doctrine of dependency, this spiritual system is based on you and your most ancient understanding of self, which I know can save the world.

     Black Goddess, yes you my love....Black Goddess you can be Goddess Actually, just give a little courage to yourself and understand your needs are even what you CHOOSE them to be, yes even your needs. You are that powerful, you are that incredible, you are that sensational...you are Goddess Actually

Goddess....Actually! Pt. I

2011-07-02T21:09:00.000-07:00

It is the time of Oya, the time of Yemaya, the time of Mawu, and Oshun,, Ngame, Kali, and Susan and Tangela, and it is the time of Anissa and Sutenet and LeTava and So many more. Honestly if I have forgotten your name it is simply that there are so many of my beloveds that are living Goddess self or learning to do so I could be here for eternity my loves, please forgive me.

There are any number of my brethren now and some of my sistren who are saying Goddess. My question to you is this....Do you believe it? Furthermore do you know it? I have wondered this as I peer into the numerous chat rooms popping up and I wonder how many of the brothers are using this term to....well...to "get" the sistren? Is it merely a ploy or play in words to convince you to the bed? Now my beloveds for you I have to say how many of you are just using the terminology without realizing the power? Yes my loves, do you really know or even believe that you are Goddess?

When I started Udja Temple Ministries for those of you who may remember it was Dec. of 2008, in early 2009 I stated once that I meant Goddess in the most literal sense of the word. I continued to teach this and now I hear it almost as a part of speech or worse....a Cliche. My beloved your divinity is not a mere quote nor a cliche'. You are more than a subtle flirtation on Facebook, you are more than a fling with a so-called Revolutionary Brotha'. Our sincerity is in our work to elevate your name and the information about who and what you are. There needs to be serious research and writing as well as teaching and hands-on work to actualize a New Earth. This New Earth of which we have spoken to you before is centered upon the divinity and the power of the Afrikan Woman/Goddess. This exceeds your beauty which in itself is infinite. I am urging you to step into the realms of the scholar and produce your own works as scholars. I am encouraging you to write your story. Tell your stories of passion and pain of power and promise.

My beloved Meri-T has a story of deep hurt at the hands of the Patriarchy supported by various "men" (I use that term loosely) SHE has encountered. These "men" played the role of savior and walked as savages. Many of you have or are suffering the same. His role is not to rule over you...he is to serve you, our children and our people....To serve! Let me say that again damnit! to SERVE!!! Yes my love we have it wrong, incorrect and upside down. You are and have always been the center of reality....The First Being who is Goddess HERself, you are this. You are the multitudes as they are your children...all 6.5 billion of us! How is it that you are to bow before anyone on this planet? Huh? Huh? Huh? Sounds ridiculous doesn't it? Well it is! How does the person, the entity if you will that created all human civilization submit to an inferior statused being? Silly huh? It is similar to a child telling the parent to sit down and shut the hell up!

I am imploring you my beloveds to sit in meditation on this fact. 6 to 10,000 years of male dominance with particular emphasis on the coming of Patriarchal religions of the last 2300 years and no good has it done. Think on that...what good has the murder and torture of millions under a Patriarchal regime done? How is that a good thing? Quite obviously men have no idea how to run a planet. So here I am screaming in this wilderness, eating wild locusts and honey, preaching of your coming...I shall stay here in this river, with this water and these trees, and I may even move about the world yelling at the top of my little lungs.

"SHE is coming, behold the Queendom of Goddess is near!"

I just pray you all come on and bring it in....why? Because

You are Goddess....Actually! We will continue at another moment.

Brave New World

2011-06-25T20:53:00.000-07:00

I have not written to you in some time, in this time things have been a-changin', for my beloved Meri-T Seshat and I. Things have been changing for some of you eh? The time has come for us to continue the work I was given in dream, in vision 3 years ago. I have said often to you that I am a witness to the coming of Black Goddess...to the coming of you, Black Woman. I have often said to you as well that my beloved Meri-T Seshat (Susan) is the testimony to what we teach at Udja Temple, Black Goddess Consciousness. SHE is the living testament that this work, well....works! All that SHE asks for comes to pass, even when SHE doubts HERself. All that you speak shall also come to pass, though you doubt yourself. This is more than a new era, this indeed is a Brave New World. Not in the Adolph Huxley or even George Orwellian style but in the style of beautiful Afrikan Women like yourselves. Oh yes, I said Afrikan Women exclusively, and I meant it.

There may be some brothers who will join me, perhaps a few...a small handful, again I said this is a Brave New World! For under this New Earth, this new paradigm of power we are building there is no such animal as Patriarchy, nor is there any abuse of women and children, for we shall live free in our own understanding. That understanding will be what my beloved has discussed with me as a "Woman-Centred Culture" once in a conversation. This culture is and will remain an Afrikan Matriarchal one, so it is not for sissies. Indeed it is a Brave New World. Can you imagine, a world wherein we live in habitat that are environmentally safe? Weird huh? Yes but you can create this Afrikan Woman, can you imagine it? A world wherein your children live with other children of like mind and women are respected. I can see this, yea' even I can feel this in my bones. It is what my beloved Great Mother told to me in dreams, I can see clearly a world of peace and harmony, as hokey as that may sound to you.

Let me lay down some thoughts here of this Brave New World, first it is one wherein I can provide you no living example. For truly none exist that are seriously Afrikan Female centered that I know of. I have not seen this community so I shall let my imagination flow. In this place our children can actually walk the street or path or however you design it to look, without hearing blaring vulgar references to women's body parts. Yeah I can see my Jahmeelah walking to meet up with Sis. Kimyon to work on a project and no one harasses HER sexually. In this New Earth I see my beloved Meri-T Seshat having Morning Tea with Tangela, wherein the tea is grown on our own land and harvested for in community consumption. They are discussing how beautiful the sky is today awaiting the other sisters as they plan the funding of the new Solar Generator. The Earth-Ships, Earth-Houses, and such allow for not only Solar Heating but other forms of energy that does not harm the ground nor pollute the sky.

In this New Earth, Black Men actually like Black Women. Now hear me out, they actually like them! Now some of us men may say, "Hey Rev, that was rough, we like the sisters." Then you will say something like, "We just don't like some of what they do." I believe this is called deflection, where you take the original focus off of yourself in order to save self from embarrassment. The man that likes Black Women, allows his spirit to open up to HER divinity, in doing so he actually thinks what SHE says is relevant, even in disagreement. The Black Man that likes Black Women, actually understands HER cycles of life, HER powerful energy during HER moon time, he recognizes HER magic and submits to it. When the brother actually likes you my loves, he takes his time to feel your likes, wants, desires, the way you like your food, your drink. My beloved cooks with honey, in just about everything, I mean we have to have honey seriously. This little truth about HER is so special to me. I watch movies and read books I have never watched before since opening my self to HER Goddess-hood. I am genuinely interested in HER as my friend and I am HER consort (That is another discussion however). I am not speaking of love, which can so easily be spoken and not fulfilled, I am saying like. In this New Earth, I have friends that are women and we have a mutual respect that comes with it, I like and love them, they are my sisters. In this New Earth the Black Man that likes Black Women, accept HER new role which is at the same time a very ancient one, as the Black Goddess. He does this with humility, with great reverence and grace.

In this Brave New World, this New Earth, the education is MAAT centered, focused on the true principles of MAAT, MAAT who is Goddess. This is important to state as many act as if it is irrelevant that MAAT is Goddess and Afrikan! Our Education in our New Earth can be based in the teachings of your great wisdom, the first wisdom Afrikan Woman. You have been the educator and producer of educators, so to me it seems simple that you should teach a New Earth how to learn and develop properly. It seems to me that a new MAAT-HER-MATICS should come forth, (I just made that up, lol). It seems to me that whatever languages you find necessary to teach should be taught, whichever forms of technology, particularly that which sustains and rebuilds our New Earth. In this New Earth that you can build just by focusing your beautiful and very powerful intention all is possible. There will never exist a time again when impossible should befall your lips.

This is your day, your time, your moment. There is no failure here in Black Goddess Consciousness, you cannot lose as all of the die have been cast and the foundation of love is made true. I like the song by the brilliant artist, Stephanie Mills, "Never Knew Love Like This". That is how you make me feel Black Goddess. Knowing you, touching your faces, loving your pretty minds and lovely hearts. Who could want more for our Brave New World? Our New Earth is of your design, even now as I sit and look across this table at my bestest friend in the whole wide world, lol. I see the design in HER clothing, SHE has this archway design on this cotton blouse, very feminine and very.....well we shall leave that there (wink). In HER clothing I see you, in HER I see you my loves, In you I see HER. You are the beginning of time and the folders of space at will. You are the openers of the way, hell naw you don't need Ra, he needs you! Allah is your child and his children have murdered millions. Yahweh is your child and his children have murdered millions. Oya brings sudden change but never has SHE killed millions just because. Yemaya has never demanded of you worship or you will go to some eternal damnation. There is nothing of Maman Brigitte that has to be "a jealous god" These are laughable ideas to attach to the Great MWT, the Great Mother, who is Black, and you!

No not in your New Earth my love, no, no. In your New Earth your babies, and your sisters love you, and your spirit is free to love as you please. The ground under your feet is a part of your legacy in this New Earth, this Brave New World. There is land here in the south that I am becoming familiar with, perhaps a new start is afoot? Yes, with your hand in it, with your minds in it, there is. You are the Masters of this New Earth my love, you are to return to those thrilling days of yesteryear when Black Goddess was all that was known. In a time before the bloody massacre of Patriarchal Madness! In a time before the coming of prophets of paternalistic societies that bleed our innocent children dry of their soul force. Your day is here, it is here, it is here. No need to be afraid anymore, no need for extreme anger, just a calm force of will to call out what you want into existence. You don't need to argue with the foolish about Mama Ast, or Mama Sekhmet, Mawu, Oshun, or Kali-Ma, they are your mothers, why should you have to prove it? Let them disprove the existence of our Black Goddess Mothers before patriarchy and it's ugly, forked tongued, step-child, racism!

The question has always been wrong, I was going to say since the sixties but that would be incorrect, it has been wrong since we got into this mess. We have been asking the wrong person, the incorrect question. We got the answer and we were not pleased. We asked, "Black Man, When Will You Stand Up?". He stood in many places, and here we are....here we are....here we are....here...you get the picture. We now need to ask the true Creator in all HER multitude of manifestations. I shall ask you my beloveds, I shall ask you Black Woman....Will you create a New Earth for us? I shall await your answers my love....

no more than 10, as if they are in hiding
SHE needing my love in this middle of
this madness, sleeps with smile
SHE wanting my touch in this midst of
this illness, sleeps with smile
awakening, the awakening
the awakening, the awakening
turning to my right this gentle Goddess

Reconnecting To HER: Black Woman in Transition Pt. I

2011-05-09T07:48:00.000-07:00

"No, the time for justice, the time for freedom... is always, is always right now!"

This is my favorite line from the movie, "The Great Debaters". The line was spoken by the character Samantha played by Jurnee Smollett. The line is so powerful that as I thought on your power Afrikan Woman, I feel you as I felt that line reverberate through my soul My love for you as your Brother, Your Son, as your Lover is undying and evermore. All you must do for me, is to be your truest you. Yes this is a reciprocal relationship, I want you to transcend this madness, this Patriarchal Madness as I have called it. I want you to reconnect to HER, who is the truest you. I want you to be aware of the disconnectedness between your current self and your most ancient self. I also wish for you a Sankofaic return to your Goddess selves.If you would do this for me it would return the energy of love I feel for you, indeed I would grin and smile and laugh with you in the New Earth you would create.

Your Mother, the Great MWT, the most ancient and beautiful understandng we have of Creator/Creatress, is HERe.inside of each of you.Wherein I had estimates of 200-250,000 years ago of city/village/communal living in Afrika, I am learning of some 300, 000 years ago as a start of Matriarchal cultures. These are estimates so far, these cultures have matriarchal roots and Goddess spirituality. Much work is to be done and in this, in this claiming of your HERstory, I need your help. You must begin the process with me of finding your self in HERstory. Many of you have stepped on to the brave road, this road of great courage. Now comes the task of writing a new story, a new day, a new way of thinking, a new love. Yours is the mantle of tomorrow and the dream of a future wherein your pretty babies, your daughters, your sons are recognizing the Great MWT that resides in you my love.

Dear heart, fret not over what they say of you, fear not of what they say of me for that matter, I have been and you have been called everything but the children of Goddess. White Feminists deny you, Black Feminists deny you, my brothers often deny your power. I and your most inner you are connected in such a way that I love you this way because I see you. You are the Holy of Holies, the Everlasting, the Forever and evermore. Who are you? SHE whom they named male gods after, yes, Allah, Jehovah, Yahweh, Jah, Zues...they are all men trying to be you! Yes these foolish gods wish to be you, wearing Mama's shoes and clothing, so cute but..so trite. That is another story, another message however, for now know that you are Goddess, Afrikan Woman....Black Goddess...Black because of your endless and boundless beginning..Goddess because...well, your endless and boundless power!

Beloved Black Goddess, your time now, right now, it is and has always been...right now. My beloved,
Meri-T Seshat and I love you more than words we may be able to articulate. We wish for you to love yourself the same as you make this transition, this reconnection to your truest self...Praise you, Praise you, Praise you!

The Calling of The 9

2011-04-09T18:47:00.000-07:00

Blessings, richest blessings of peace and provision, safety, shelter, sustenance and love.

Beloveds, I am calling on 9, nine sisters who will join with me in heart, mind and womb to collectively bind our energies and our intentions of love and light, healing and flow to the Pacific Ring of Fire, to Japan and to the West Coast of this country. We are all one, connected to one another, and we have all agreed to be here now to witness and participate in the birthing process as our beautiful planet gives birth to herself. I am calling on the 9 of you who are listening with your heart, mind and womb, and who hear HER call for you to come out, come out of the mundanity and the illusions of materialism and life-denying constructs, to enter into the flow of energy, to participate with awareness as we co-create our reality, working with the energies of the planet and the universe, not against them, in gratitude, humility and faith. Come out of this paradigm which must die, which must surrender, which must relinquish itself as it stubbornly refuses to do so, come out of this hard place into the bosom of HER wisdom. The beautiful people of Japan whose earthly lives have passed away, washed away as the water rushed to shore, they have done their part. The people of Haiti, of Chile, of China, of Indonesia, of all the places where the earth has moved and humans have lost their lives, they have done their part, and we give thanks and praise for them rising to the auspicious occasion of their births.

And we are still here.

Everyday that we wake up and we are still here, we are still being called to be here now and do this thing. I am calling on 9 to focus with me now every morning at about 9:27 am EST in whatever capacity you can, align your heart with mine and all of the others who agree to move our intentions of healing and love energy, to ease this transition with the least amount of loss of life, to intentionally envision a way of living that is close to the earth, I am calling on you today.

What are you pregnant with, what is moving within your womb, wanting to express itself in divine inspiration, to make itself manifest in physical reality? What song sings in your heart, traces your lips, and graces your mind with thoughts of love, reunion, and healing? Sing your song, sing the desires of your heart, and enter the flow with both feet, because it is you, Black Goddess, who can make all the difference in the world.

As we approach a very powerful and very physically close full moon energy, align yourself with HER flow, call on HER aspected Goddess manifestations as divine mother, water deity, orishas, neteru, interdimensionals, elemenal beings of light and love-- call on HER, ask for HER most divine inspiration to infuse your brain and heart and womb with a liquid creativity and bliss, and ecstasy that is liquid and malleable, so that it flows from your very fingertips and graces everything you touch with transformative power, that it infuses and emboldens every word you utter, so that this love light energy flows rapidly without bounds, across time and space and circmstances, that we know without a shadow of a doubt that We Are Who We Are, I Am That I Am, and we can do this thing, this transformative Great Work, the purpose of our incarnation.

I bid you love, beauty, joy, harmony, balance, light, strength, and peace.

Ashe.

Blue Heron, Black Goddess

2011-03-11T11:29:00.000-08:00

Beloveds;

You in this day must be the fullest self, the most beautiful and magical you. This is your calling now, your movement must be anchored in this. This singular fact that you are Goddess is extremely crucial for your well beingness. Your well-beingness is intrisically tied to this concept. It is not new, but it is new for us. For so long my beloveds you my dear sisters have been told that you can't, shouldn't, won't and had better not. I your brother, your son, your friend, your uncle, your father, your worshipper, your Priest, I say, you can, you should, you will and it would be a great idea! I say to you my loves that you are the greatest and most powerful entity here. Too many of you validate men, you validate those of us who do not need nor deserve validation. You us to be strong yet you baby us and caress us when we have just caused you pain. This unfortunate illness can be cured as you grow inside of this Black Goddess Consciousness that Udja Temple teaches.

I have seen too many of you give entire pages here on facebook to men of ill behavior. Telling us how beautiful we are repeatedly will not make us strong. I am for tough love, I have had it and my brothers need it too. We must no longer be allowed to bow and prostrate ourselves before your feet unless we are worthy to wash them in full submission to the truth of who you are. Yes I said it, Submission, the curse word that many men would kill me over. It is however what is missing for us as men. We have not learned of our mothers and the necessity to honor the Womb, to give reverence to the Goddess you. Yet I ask you to not give us so much. Perhaps hold back a little....of EVERYTHING, yes...that too!

The other day I saw a Blue Heron, a beautiful bird, a most glorious sighting. This bird is a most awesome hunter, long legged- beautiful in plumage, sharp beaked. slender, devastating killer but oh so graceful. I am thinking now of you all, how you can manifest yourself in your many forms, your many spirits, all manifesting daily as Creatress, Goddess, Lady of Power. In your many forms you have beautiful plumage and you are the killer when necessary, you are the great magician of water and air of fire and earth. You my beloveds, like the Blue Heron float above the waters looking to capture that which is necessity for your survival. You then land oh so gently in the water, at the water's edge. You stand there in total focus, so focused that you are statuesque in your gaze. You stare at the water, and oh you walk softly and deftly towards your sustenance. You then strike and in your fullest Goddess glory you never, ever miss. Look at you, just look at you so powerful. After consuming your sustenance, you look at yourself in the water's pool, that inner pool and you see you.

You can see you so wonderfully full of that which is good for you, that which is necessity. Why? It is because you are looking at the image therein and you see your power to look into inner spirit, the inner self, like the Blue Heron. You have a deeper insight into your soul's work. Taking that moment my love to go into deep meditation on you and your oh so pretty soul, that is your gift. Upon sight you find your power for prophecy, and telekinesis (your ability to move matter). Upon sight of your Black Goddess self you are able to see into time and manipulate space. Floating between Air and Water you are in spirit constantly. When you are at your Black Goddess best you are spirit manifested. When you are in this you are on earth as well standing in water, you are without err in this form because you know self and self is assured to be right. Keep in mind that having others with you is grand however self is sufficient. You can be the Hermit and the Social Butterfly at will, because you are just that powerful. In either case Black Goddess, now is your day...Take flight, take flight and live, take flight and save us...Blue Heron, Black Goddess.

And You Too My Dear!

2011-03-03T15:50:00.000-08:00

Greetings my beloved, do you think you are without a calling? What makes you think I and this wonderful woman, Rev. Susan Mitchell are only speaking to a certain group of Afrikan Women? When we say Goddess? When we say Divine? When we speak of Black Women being a Sacred vessel we speak of you as well my love, yes you! You are told that you are not educated enough. In that light folks painted you as not of great intellect yet these same foolish mortals come to you for advice on their lives even as you have life difficulty. Yeah they claimed you are not going to school or haven't finished High School or maybe took one year of Community College so you, "ain't nothin' and ain't never gonna be nothin'". Well beloved Udja Temple believes you are powerful and graceful, we believe that you like your ancestors are full of power. Yes your ancestral legacy of Black Women who achieved great things in cause of our liberation. We believe you have that same power to achieve, to conquer and to remove evil from the earth. So we at Udja Temple Ministries, we call you Goddess.

There are those who will doubt your reading habits. Perhaps you have only small amounts of books for your library. No problem you can get more, besides, your life experience will be most valuable to you. So valuable that I am almost daring to say it is more important than book "smarts". I say almost daring as I am an avowed Book Geek (Smile). However in my life and in the life of Rev. Susan we find that our experiences with the divine have helped to give us wisdom, great wisdom. Yours my love, your living experience can do the same for you. You can get more books, you can get more experience as well but that experience, life circumstance, situations, relationships, those things will get you great wisdom. So we at Udja Temple Ministries, we call you Goddess.

There are folks that will say to you that you are too much, too well to do to hang out with those Udja Temple folks. Perhaps you feel your success in the Western World has done you right, has given you all that you need. If you feel this I would like to ask you a question...What of spirit? What of your divinity, what of your access to the power that is a part of your divine legacy, your spiritual Fore mothers. You too regardless of your access to bank accounts and foreign travel and cars etc. you are Goddess. You are blessed because of it, on the flip side I know some of you have to deal with Patriarchy and Global White Supremacy head on in that world of corporate beasts of steel and silicon. You have often had to hide your true power. Here with us, with the divine place of the Goddesses of Afrika you no longer have to hide. Here with us you can use your power for the benefit of your people. Here, we at Udja Temple Ministries, call you Goddess.

There are fakers, fools and charlatans who will come to you saying, "Oh, so you are a pagan now?" You may laugh silently as you understand that in that usage the word pagan means, "lesser", or "inferior". You can laugh aloud if you wish and ask them to define pagan. Upon doing so they will find:

Pagan : heathen
1; especially : a follower of a polytheistic religion (as in ancient Rome)

In this definition they will find themselves polytheistic on two fronts, Number one if they are Christian they worship God as a Trinity, right? Well isn't that three deities, despite how they claim a 3:1 ratio? Yeah it is, don't let them fool you. Then in Al-Islam, there is the concept of Allah and his (actually HER, but that is for a later discussion, shhhh!) Injils (Angels). Oh but wait those aren't deities...or are they?

2: one who has little or no religion and who delights in sensual pleasures and material goods : an irreligious or hedonistic person.

Ummmm, yeah, this definition is representative by any number of Televangelists, Preachers, Catholic Priests, Imams and other religious leaders. Soooo, we will leave that one there. If they call you pagan just tell them you are in great company with their local clergy. After that c'mon over to Udja Temple where we don't have these issues and are completely dedicated to your economic, physical, social, psychological, emotional and of course spiritual well-being.

Do you feel that you are too shy? Perhaps you fear stepping forward because you may be isolated. No my beloved you are Goddess and you would be moving towards a growing body of Sistren and a few good brothers who will love you honestly and welcome you in peace. Perhaps you may be angry, a little bitter and confused at that last relationship with that ex-mate who laughed at your growing independent thinking. Perhaps you are so angry and bitter because you spent years in a religion of oppressive ideas and repressive thoughts. Perhaps after coming out of that you are in need of a bit of what I like to call a Spiritual Enema! Yeah I know, that was rough but seriously I was at one time full of compacted waste in the name of religion and bad relationships. My understanding of Goddess as an Afrikan Woman brings a lot of magic, joy and freedom. The kind of freedom I have never felt before. On top of that I am a guy, and I accepted Goddess in my life from an Afrikan perspective. No bitterness, no anger (O.K. a little but I am working through it, lol!) I was angry at the treatment of my Mothers, Sisters, Aunts, Daughters, My Cousins, my Friends, all Black Women and all attacked by the sicknesses of Global White Supremacy and Patriarchy. I am angry at your treatment, yes, your treatment. I am angry for you too my dear.

You too deserve this kind of understanding, this kind of joy, this kind of peace of mind. You too deserve to live an understanding of your truest self. We have preached to the choir, hence they are singing of Oya, and Yemaya, and Ast, and Sekhmet, and Bast and Het-Heru, Oshun, Mawu and Mami Wata, Kali and Maman Brigit. They are singing of Goddess in HER original form, they are praising HER and living what has been the hope of our people. Living a reality centered in the piece of mind that all can come together in our lives. We have the living example of Rev. Susan Mitchell and others are coming to the fore. They are choosing a path of love and glory. Yes, Black Goddess belongs to HER and the sisters that are linking up here in this Emerald Palace, linking up with Udja Temple Ministries. There is a sisterhood growing and brothers that will support this work, there is family, for me, for them......and you too my dear!

February 2, 2011

Greetings, peace and richest blessings to all of you, Beloved,

Today is my birthday, my earthday, and I am happy. I am happy to be 44 years, and look forward to many more to come. I am now in the beginning of the beauty for my ashes years, these years full of grace and mercy that have been promised to me from the Most High in all Her wisdom since before time, the years I have been promised for agreeing to be here during these endtimes, which are a beginning time, while yet in the realm of spirit.

I am sensing and feeling all the growth springing forth from the seeds that have been planted in me from my earliest memories. I remember looking out over the land that is Washington, D.C., when I was but four or five years old, from Cleopatra's Needle, the Washington Monument, and seeing with my own eyes the Capitol City of my birth, and feeling a great sense of place. I did not know what it meant, yet I sensed there would be a time of seeing over the land, a land made anew, a new place, a new thing, and I am to give testimony to its unfolding.

I remember being given a book by a beloved teacher, Mrs. Terry Brock, a book about a woman named Harriet Tubman and the Underground Railroad that she led. I read amazed at her bravery of how she lead hundreds of our ancestors to freedom, and now Rev Majadi and I honor this Most Sacred and Divine Afrikan Goddess for who she is and will always be as one of the Nine goddess energies-- our Paut Neteru-- of Udja Temple in our consecrated work to bring back the throne of The Great Mother, Ast ,to our consciousness so that we indeed may be made anew.

I remember many times in my life in which there have been strong and unseen forces surrounding the events of my life, taking me out of harm's way even as I experienced sadnesses and loss, always preserving in me the strength to endure, in the spirit of our great ancestors who have endured before us. Now is our time, Beloved Sisters of the Dark Mother, now is our time to shine, and step gracefully, elegantly, courageously into the High Seat of our divinity, raising the vibration of this planet so that all who WILL it, will allow the light energies to flow through them, allow their consciousness to raise higher, to endure this Great Shift. It is a Great Work, and important work beyond any other importance, and we know who we are...we are being awakened and called forth.

And so, Beloved, my birthday, earthday blessing for you is to urge you not to run anymore. You know who you are, do not run. You have what it takes or you wouldn't be here now. The cold winds of winter are blowing strong and powerful with both thunder and lightening in their midst, there are wars and rumors of wars, and nothing is new. Yet the Sibyls return, the Wise Women return, the Black Goddess returns, riding on the wings of the great black bird, Sankofa, to bring us all back Home.

It is the hour of my 44th year and I give thanks and praise to HER for allowing me to share these words with you. I shall not cease. I will open my heart to you and show you the visions I see. I am not afraid anymore, I know the feeling of Divine and Sacred love, and it infuses me with a strength I had nearly forgotten that I have. I am willing to share with you the the secret places that reside inside me, the insights and Divine Inspiration I receive constantly. I tell you now that the narratives of our life experience is the source of our power. I am going to come out now and let you in, so that in anyway my story may yet inspire you to stop running and take your place, then my work will be done, and I will rest in deep and profound peace.

I look forward to meeting you here, and I invite you with open arms.

Peace, love, light, and the richest of blessings to you always...

The Cold of Winter...Then

2011-02-01T08:22:00.000-08:00

     Looking out of my window in one of the bedrooms in our two bedroom apartment. I am looking at my brief time with my beloved. In this brief moment of time we have had together even that expanse of memories seem long. It is as if I have not known any other but HER. Indeed SHE permeates my sense of self, it is wonderful, it is a blessings. I wish the same for all of my brothers to experience the same. I wish for my sisters to experience the warmth of Spring after a cold winter of suppression. I wish for my brothers to love you so sincerely that the thought of even raising his voice is hurtful to his soul. I wish for you my sisters to have joy, true joy or what my beloved Rev. Mitchell and I call, Lovejoy.

     My beloved brothers I can only tell you of the warmth, the sweetness and kindness necessary for our Sisters now. I can only speak to you from this place where I live in kindness, and with a loving heart for HER. I can only say to you that which I know works for me. I can only tell you of love given that is so Afrikan and so delicious it brings smile to HER face. I can speak this to you, tell you of these things, speak to you of honor an such, I am still at a loss it seems. I am at a loss because some of you think these things a sign of weakness or as some might say some sort of attack on your masculinity. I will tell you that these thoughts come from a place of great insecurity, and it is very unfortunate.

     It is very unfortunate my brothers because I wish for you to experience the fullness of HER grace. I wish for you to know the sweetness in HER lovemaking. You miss much of the fullness of HER power because you want to "knock it out the park" and "Tear it up" and filthy ideas as such. I want for you my brothers what I wish for myself. HER divinity is expressed in the warmth of HER Spring, the newness of HER Summer, the slow death of Autumn and the regeneration during HER Winters. I wish for you to live inside of HER Winters, so cold but not because you think SHE is not appreciative. SHE is cold at times because SHE must put to sleep certain things. Your mission? Your mission is to remain there, to be there if you love HER. To go beyond the Winter of HER discontent. To bring warmth and lovejoy where before there was the bitterness and pain of cold.

     What is fortunate my beloved Sistren is that the Winter will end, brothers you may assist in the process of his Winter coming to close. For the both of you I just ask this, open your hearts. Afrikans have always exhibited a great ability to manifest, exhibit and regenerate love. I ask that you now love self, love the love of self. Sisters open your heart to the Divine Afrikan Feminine residing within you. Brothers open your heart to the Divine Afrikan Feminine that resides within HER. SHE has always produced he, it has never been the reverse. Though others may teach such madness I urge you to be brave enough to look at the Womb, to return to you mothers. Be not afraid for this is HER day and SHE the Great Mother who is Dark and Comely and Omnipotent, SHE wants the best for you. I wish the best for you, Rev. Mitchell wants the best for you. Do you have a calling to come home? Be not afraid, they will call you names but you will be home with us. They may try to say to you that God ain't no woman. Sisters just ask them this question as did Ancestor Sojourner Truth, "Ain't I A Woman?" Did you read that last statement correctly? When they attempt to tell you, God ain't no woman, you simply respond....."Aint I A Woman?". They are forced to answer the question...Yes you are a woman. At this point the conversation is over.

     Let there be no doubt in your soul on the Winter that is here. Do not doubt that this is for your good. For as difficult as this Winter, this pain, this suffering has been for you, you are of a Sacred line Sisters. Brothers you are the child of the Goddess, the Son of The Goddess, we my brothers are HER divine consort. There is much importance in this so do not fret that you shall become effeminate. No indeed it is a very, very masculine thing to love an Afrikan Woman, it is even divine to love HER divinity. Real Gods brothers Respect, Honor and find Sacred, the most high HER. Real Gods love Goddess, we further understand that it is through SHE that HE becomes God. In most ancient times we were more secure than now, and we can become again my brothers. Sisters in most ancient times you were able to recognize your strength, your beauty and your power. For you my brethren, you my sistren I offer you warmth from the Winter of HER discontent, Udja Temple is here for you, here for you to find that place of solace and understanding, our doors open, it is time for a calling to be met, and here you are...you are well met.

Ashe' and Sacred Love

2011-01-25T19:10:00.000-08:00

     Sacrament is a word of European origin that references something being sacred or holy. It is unfortunate that the European origin of this word is irrelevant to my discussion other than to show you it's irrelevance, lol. For your understanding, this is at one and the same time a confession and a lesson. I Rev. Majadi Baruti confess that the proper word to describe a particular experience of mine is and can only be found in an Afrikan Context...this word? Calm down, don't be so impatient. Let me preface it with other words first that do not fit, stay with me now.

     Holy does not fit said experience as it simply means, exalted or worthy of complete devotion. An object, idea or entity that fits this description. This involves an act, a thing to do, the act has a goal, one must enact that exaltation and praise of said object of devotion for it to be considered holy. This is part of the experience, except the goal oriented vibration of "holy" does not fit my experience either for indeed I find this experience worthy of exaltation and I submit to a devotion towards said experience. Yet somehow for me to sit and write this message to you that is as I said a confession and a lesson and pretend this word suits this experience would be false. I am a righteous man walking a devoted walk.

     Sacred, here we go with the whole repetitive thing, yes, my friends this word also falls short of my experience, it is of devotional conceptualization as well. That is all lovely and pretty to say, however my experience was too cosmic in proportion to let this be the word to describe this wonderful phenomena. Ironically I had to use it in the title of this message as this fits a description of the Love energy that works. The Love energy is powerful beyond words, beyond written or spoken language. It is one of the few energies that just is what it is. It should not be contrived or attempted to be reached, remember there is no goal orientation here. Thus with the word Sacred being inseparably bonded to Holy and Sacrament, again we fall short. Although Sacred Love works in and of itself as some explanation of my message. Let's get into it shall we?

     Ashe'. My friends who are familiar with this Yoruba word understand that is carries much meaning. Truly perhaps one of the most powerful words ever spoken. Most folks who are not of an understanding of the power of this word will simplify it as, "So Be It" or "It Is So". This is beautiful but lacks the grace to express such an all-encompassing word. I have an understanding that it carries the beauty of something deeper, something sweeter. Ashe is described as the living force that runs through all things, a life force of unimaginable proportions. It is a creative, ever evolving, ever living energy, and it is described as the very essence of the universe. It is the power to make things happen, we can describe it as inspiration on the one hand, beauty on another and even love. For me my friends I experience this often, yet it is presented to me in the form of the most powerful being in the universe, the Afrikan Woman.

     SHE, this one in particular is the very manifestation of the Goddess energy of which I teach. SHE is the living embodiment of Ashe. I watch HER awaken, I watch HER walk, I watch HER do small things like shopping for groceries. Yes it is SHE whom I experience as love made in a state of pure divinity, of love made in a sacred place. Difficult for some to understand it may be that lovemaking can be a spiritual experience, indeed however it is such. I must tell you my brothers that the Afrikan Woman is beyond sight and sound, SHE is without peer, SHE is Goddess. I say this with much conviction and passion, I live this daily in states of bliss that go beyond ecstasy, and this is just HER smiling at me! Yes, SHE is all that I preach SHE is...all of them are. I say constantly to you, "SHE is what SHE has always been, Goddess." When I teach you this my brothers, I wonder how you perceive this thing? I wonder if you are able to see HER as I do, SHE stands next to you, do you see HER? I will tell you, HER's is the everlasting shine, SHE is the origin of all. If you my brothers would but allow HER to show you. If you could stop fighting and submit, yes I said it, submit.

     If you could find it in your hearts my sisters, to love you so deeply that you would take nothing short of an Afrikan Man who worships you. Yea' even the ground you walk on, even to see the magic in your breath. He should have it in him to do this. He should begin to give reverence to the forever in your walk, the eternity in your hips and the universal of your womb power. You are the power cosmic, stellar is too small for you, if you were to but imagine yourself as this it would be so. It is so with my beloved Susan, I see HER in the glistening in drops of rain and I experience that unspeakable joy. SHE is Ashe', SHE helps me to experience Sacred Love, lovemaking to see and experience what would be akin to what Christians refer to as Holy Ghost. Yes, go ahead and laugh, call me what you will, but I see HER power, I see HER glory, forever and ever, Ashe'.

     I become more in tune with the elements, with the very forest, with water, with Nature/Neter/Orisha/Loa...Creatress. Yes, I am made whole through HER soul contacting my soul. I am made anew, yes my beloved I am born again. How can this be? It is because as I have said, the Afrikan Woman is Goddess. Black Goddess Consciousness, my teaching, my life work is sound because of HER and what SHE does. SHE is as I have said. SHE is growing every day, SHE is the fullest manifestation of Ashe' on this planet. Yes, my sisters even you. Some will see this as blaspheme, some will see this as a man lost in a whirlwind of emotion and passion. I being of clear mind and sound of thought know what SHE is. I know Goddess as the Afrikan Woman and none can say different to me. SHE is ASHE'

Prosperity

2011-01-24T07:13:00.000-08:00

I am a Prosperity Teacher. Note I said Teacher and not Preacher? I am also a student, a student of magic, learning to bring into existence that which I need to continue this work. It has become difficult, very difficult, I have called into existence the release of my "Job", now I am doing my life calling. The alleged security of a Job with a Bank was all illusion. It was illusion because as this world of old ties to outdated philosophies is dying, these large multi-national corporations are holding on to this madness. My beloved Meri-T in HER ability to wield large amounts of Ashe (Life Force) teaches me daily to let go of any vestige of this world. SHE commented to me in her eloquence to prepare to have all of my heart's desires met. Stating that once I step into this ministry fully I would...Prosper. I have indeed prospered spiritually, I have grown faster intellectually. My psyche is indeed more aware of the spirit of African Goddess/Black Goddess around me. My concept that I Teach, Black Goddess Consciousness has expanded to include the idea that indeed not only is the Black Woman the savior of Afrikan People but SHE alone has the brilliance, the soul and indeed the power to save the world. In the very least those who wish to be saved, those who will hold on to the rotted vines of this, well good luck with that.

It is in the arena of Finances and Resources that we as a collective people have not prospered, it is in this arena that I await the people whom I believe in the most to assist in the processing of this. I offer services that are much needed in our people, Spiritual Counseling, Life Coaching, Readings, Lectures/Workshops etc. These services are given without judgement and painlessly, I now offer classes and I have 9 of the most brilliant Afrikan Women in these classes. A new class is coming forth, also promising African Genius at its best. In all of this I have given time away freely or by donation. I will now move towards a more prosperous mind, a more prosperous view of things. As times have become difficult here in my home and in the spirit of MAAT I must move with all haste to turn this tide.

It has been said our people are lost, we are confused, and wayward. You will hear many come before you repeating how bad off African People are. I am guilty of having done that, through this learning of magic I have been taught that this is self-nagation, even destructive. I will not live that energy any longer. I will no longer speak on how bad the brothers are, I will give them no out but I will do my best to ignore that ignorance some of our beloved brothers display. Now don't misunderstand me, I offer you brothers no way out of disrespect, exploitation or abuse of my Sisters, but you will be placed in a non-position. You do not exist lest you come this way! This is a time of healing and developing of spirit/thought/soul, the day is passe' for speaking on banging on the system and blowing up these "devils". My friend unless you have banged on the demonic spirit you have accepted for yourself, hush!

This is a new day, a new paradigm a new way of living. I am asking simply who is ready to prosper? Who is ready to stand for building a Temple/Spiritual process based on peace and joy, love and passion, divinity and sacredness.? Who is truly committed to a process wherein our children can eat good clean food grown by Africans, wherein Black Women can express their sensuality without being spoken to disrespectful of their divinity? This day is here wherein we can build energy positive and sustainable housing, wherein we can gather our own resources and support businesses "off the grid". All we have to do is to tie ourselves into and support those energies that do what they say they will do, that speak on positive aspects and powers of Afrikan Spirituality. Udja Temple has consistently spoken to our needs, We have supported everyone from the Scott Sisters to Haitian Earthquake Relief to our Community Activists consistently. Through these processes we have taken losses and greatly so. Our scholarship is consistent with excellence as we teach Black Goddess Consciousness. Our information is solid, our reputation is firm in MAAT. One of my dear sisters just messaged me speaking on the negatives of sexual abuse in African Spiritual Systems and although SHE sends HER blessings to our work, SHE is understandably apprehensive. Again we are and have been consistent in our no tolerance of foolishness.
Those of that mind frame my Sisters, they are illusion, and they too will fall by the way side. We have with us very powerful Goddess energy and trust me....IT WORKS!!!

We shall speak our prosperity into existence, we will win, are winning, despite heavy losses on our side. We wrote the books thousands of years ago that spoke of our victory, now comes the fulfillment of prophecy. Auset is returning to HER seat of power, Sekhmet is watching, Neith is standing post, Oya has the air supremacy, Mami Wata and Yemaya are by Sea, Ocean and River. What can stand against us? Our move is not militaristic it is all love for in these elements is our salvation, Water, Air, Fire, Earth and Divinity! No battle will ensue, rather a falling away of the dross, the poisons, the toxins that eat away at us. Yes this is the falling away of unecessary energy. This is also the day of newness, of rebirth of ascension, this is the day of prosperity Sisters and Brothers who love our Sisters. It is time for you, for me, for us to step into our greatness by great actions taking place. Yes, now comes the tricky part, I need your support. Bring me into town, I will speak/lecture/workshop, I will work for the resources necessary for myself and assist you in inspiring those around your community to help to build what is necessary for you. African Women, African Families can and shall be made whole by a committment by us all to support that which supports you. If you wish, join our study groups, inquire on them. You can also make donations to this work, yes we offer receipts as well you can write this off (Oh yeah, I do that myself!). Invest in a Maatian construct, invest in Prosperity....

The African Goddess is Eternal
Praise HER Infinitely
Bless you in all that you do of good.

Executive Compliment

All She Asks For Is A Cup of Hisbiscus Tea...

2011-01-07T05:22:00.000-08:00

All she has ever asked for is a cup of tea. Very simple, a cup of Hibiscus Tea, we have the kettle, black painted kettle, shiny. Yes, it whistles to let me know it is done, as I approach it I see the steam, careful not to get too close, careful not to touch steam. Steam can burn you, ya know? I wrap my brown fingers around the smooth handle with grooves seemingly made to fit my digits for just this occasion. I have placed enough Hibiscus into the beautiful glass Tea Infuser formed like her body, silky, rounded just right, transparent so only the truth is seen. The steam caresses the air around me, it then gently touches the dried leaves before water hits it but then that water. The heat from which folds these flowers dried under the sun into a dreamy ball of heat, petals and water. The fragrance enticing me to sip before SHE does but this would be blaspheme to drink before the Most High. I am a holy man you know, some things are as sacred as HER laughter. Once this is properly infused the truest of colors, a strange Fuschia and Red coloring comes through the glass to my eye. Strange as it seems to change hue depending on the light.

There is then the honey and my love does enjoy HER honey, the soft and supple hue of the honey, and oh the floral bounty therein. SHE is induced to poetic movement as if intoxicated by this golden elixer, I am induced to dance. The Hibiscus, the Honey kiss one another in the mug. Almost as if it should not be they offer me an offering from The Goddess, to this HER child, Goddess, Daughter of Goddess. I see HER smiling having awakened to this concotion of melodic sustenance, intended to cause that smile. My brothers let me tell you, it is this easy, when SHE asks for tea, give the Black Woman in your life Tea, do not give HER terrible innuendo intended to bed HER. This will come about with gentleness, if I sent you to pick flowers for a woman I would not give you a bulldozer to do it. My expectation would be that you would approach the flower fields wet from the dew with kindness in your heart.

If I send you to buy your beloved mate a soft kitten, I will not equip you with a tank to gather them. Nor if you used your strong hands to lift them ever so gently would I call you soft and or weak or anything derogatory. No, all I ask is that you cook for HER, play some Jeffrey Osborne for HER, listen to HER words, SHE can save us. I ask only that you war if you must war from a higher plane of consciousness, realizing that SHE has never been the enemy. As you are making your YOUTUBE video preparing to vent your hatred of HER, think of Mommy or Grandma and those darn Tollhouse cookies all warm and sweet. I mean really when you and your male Kinfolk have discussions about, "These Female Out HERe, being more scandalous then us niggas!" Think about that statement, inside of the word Female is "male" and the word HERE is built upon HER! SHE is the HERE and now! You are inside of HER one way or the other, from Birth to Making Love, you are there, in all aspects it is a holy process. It is a divine thing, a sacred thing just to be in HER presence.

All SHE is asking for is a cup of tea, and I want you to give this to HER with sweetness, and kindness and caring. My dear Brothers I wish for you to make a field of Hibiscus and Jasmine for HER. I need you with me to til the soil, to grow crops for SHE and your babies. Is "The Big Game" more important than when SHE walks in front of the Television with that perfume and that lovely dress? Really? Nothing can be a stronger and more masculline thing for you to do then to be loyal, and honest, and to open your heart to her. Nothing can be more sexy to HER then if you would play, "If This World Were Mine" for her rather than blasting the house with songs that tell HER SHE is nothing and you wish to make it rain on HER. Using money to objectify HER, telling HER that SHE does not know HER place. I want you to know that SHE knows HER place....you are standing in it or sometimes the places are juxtaposed...let me say this.....SHE is NUT the Goddess of SKY and the SKY HERself! Sing to HER of Yemaya, yes sing HER song, that is HER song, sing HER praises. Create stories on the power of true love and place them over DJ. Premier instrumentals or find Alabama by John Coltrane.

All SHE has ever asked for is a cup of Hibiscus Tea, deliver this to HER and then leave softly unless SHE requests you to stay....now if you will excuse me...the tea may become cold.......

The Ascension and My Beloved

2011-01-06T02:58:00.000-08:00

     I sit in wonder at this Black Woman, this Susan Mitchell, SHE my companion. A teller of much truth, a walker of much light, SHE guides me, assists me, Compliments and Complements me. I sit in amazement at HER ability to as SHE calls it, "Fold Time". This basically means that SHE is able to manipulate the energy of time such that it can benefit HER, particularly under duress. A powerful, brilliant woman SHE is, and I sit in awe.

     I am also watching HER go through what are called Ascension symptoms, SHE is asleep now, finally, HER night has been rough, awakening, coughing for no apparent reason, in pain that SHE cannot describe. I am growing in my ability to heal with my hands, SHE is often my laboratory, it is difficult when SHE cannot explain the pain, making it more difficult for me to move the energy.

   It is a wondrous thing to behold, this lovely person suffering, yet ascending, moving with the energy of this planet to transform from one stage to another, to change, a new dimensional shift. Along with it comes flu-like symptoms, headaches, unexplained pains, bouts with depression, self degradation, low self-esteem, anxiety, and insomnia as well as awakening mysteriously between 3am and 4am it seems. How do I know this? Well yours truly has suffered as well although I attempted to deny it.

     I had been ill recently, suffering "Ascension Flu" and severe headaches, weariness and awakening suddenly, as I have just done at 3:33 am for about a year or so now. At the old job I had, I would fall asleep in meetings and at my desk. So yea' I am going through this as well, to see HER do so is gut-wrenching. It does mean however that not only is SHE growing spiritually at a rapid rate, but we are on the same vibration.

     Just as I am committed to going through this with HER, I am committed as well to your proper development beloved. I am now working full time in my Ministry. I am a Spiritual Life Coach, we can get through this together, my sessions are open for you, I am ready to assist you in this process of transforming your life along with the rest of those of us who are ascending as well.

Focal Component- Susan Mitchell

2010-09-22T07:06:00.000-07:00

Focal Component

“Any item that is used as the central element [my emphasis] in a necklace, bracelet and other jewelry design. A focal component is intended to be the main attention-getter, the 'focal point.' Examples include pendants, carved gemstone beads, cabochons in settings, etc. Sometimes referred to as a 'station.'”
---Fire Mountain Gems Jewelry Makers Newsletter, Tuesday, August 31, 2010

I was inspired on this mellow morning of the second day of September by the words of a little blurb in a bead source newsletter that I receive. I am a budding jewelery maker. I started making beaded jewelry in the late eighties, and I noticed that when I string beads, a calmness enters my spirit. When I look at the beads, the sheer beauty of their simplicity puts me in a quiet state of awe. When I create adornments for hair, wrist, belly, ankle, ear and neck from the beads, I feel good, pretty, sexy, lovely and amazing. And when I focus my intention on infusing the jewelry with love, passion, goodness, blessing, and power, I radiate this energy and invariably others will comment upon the “special” quality that exudes from the beads. I would do it casually, sporadically and with little ambition other than to give as gifts to others.

I met a curious person in the late nineties who became a good friend of mine for a season, and he suggested that to heal myself of certain anxieties and compulsions, that I do beading—just simply stringing beads one after the other, in a type of practical meditation. I use mostly glass beads and crystals, some semi precious gemstones and copper wire. I make Magickal Jewelry of Divine Inspiration. I checked out the newsletter for this week, and these words printed above inspired me to write this to you.

In Black Goddess Consciousness, you, Black Woman, Afrikan Woman, are the Focal Component in the Divine Adornment that laces your life and the lives that are linked to you. And if you are the central element in the adornment, all eyes are on you, even if in ignorance you are only perceived peripherally or through a glass darkly. Yet this truth remains; all eyes are on you, Black Woman.

A simple string of beads, uniform or in a varying pattern can be nice, pretty even, certainly functional. Yet, it is not necessarily distinguishable from one necklace to the next. Those festive plastic bead necklaces thrown out during Mardi Gras celebrations that we like to collect and hang from our rear view mirrors like shiny testimonials to how much fun we had are pretty, but one is not really different from the other. But that beaded necklace or even the one with a simple chain, or even one that has an invisible string is so much more-- effective-- at making a difference, an impact, an impression when it is focalized on the single beautiful focal component.

The Focal Component is part of a whole, of a whole design. She is not and does not exist in a vacuum or an island. She is linked to other beads. It is to Her that the other beads are chosen in color, shape and size. She is the center; She is the reason that the other beads shine so much more brightly because of Her radiance.

I am inspired to order some more beads and begin with earnest intention to create magickal jewelry to sell as I expand my business. Look for more offerings to come shortly, and support Udja Temple Ministries by ordering some of these pretty things I make as an expression of the divine Afrikan goddess who lives and breathes in me. I am also encouraged to do some research into the history of beads and bead work as it directly relates to Afrikan culture throughout time and space and more specifically to the ritual use of beads as expressions of goddess worship. So stay tuned!

I invite you, Black Women, to shine bright as the focal component of the adornment of your own lives. I inspire you to relax and string some beads together, and decide with deliberate and contemplative intention which focal component you wish to chose, which one, in the immortal words of Lorraine Hansberry's character Mama in A Raisin in the Sun , says, “It expresses me!”

The Blessed Dark Goddess and Haitian Salvation!!!

2010-01-18T20:38:00.000-08:00

I have said it before and I shall repeat this, the Afrikan Woman is the Saviour Messiah for our people and subsequently the Earth. Because we have gone to other forms of spiritual structures that belong to enemies of the Cosmic Mother we have ignored or rather refuse to acknowledge this concept. Because we choose to act as if this teaching is bizarre and or primitive, we continue in the condition that we are in. The Cosmic Mother, the Afrikan Woman has and is the key to our elevation. The power SHE holds is yet to be truly and fully seen per result of the Patriarchy. It is also not seen because of HER unfortunate belief in HER oppressor...Male Dominance. My love, My mother, My sister, My child, if you will but let his world go! Oh if you would let his world go, and then slide into your role as GOD/DESS! Oh but the joy you could bring us, the peace, the abundancy of love. You are MAAT bringing balance and justice, order, reciprocity and truth, harmony. You are Sekhmet, and Sepdet, you are the power of Kali bringing order back to the chaotic world in which we live.

Mama, if you hold back, Sister, if you will not love us, Lover, if you will deny us...we shall surely die. There is a place for you here, in actuality all places are meant for you. You have not made that final step, that last decision to listen to the Great Spirit of Virgin, Mother and Crone inside of you. You have stepped out from yourself, left the temple in other words. You have let a madman run this planet and he has expressed his madness in cold blooded murder! He is a killer who knows no better, for this is what he does! You have also created your greatest creation and he as well has sided at times with the murder. This your greatest creation outside of yourself, lies in the bed with you. Foolish man believed that lies of your oppressor, his promises of great power. Your own sons followed his father along with the murderer, your brother sometimes joined that coven!

Now comes Haiti, and again masses of your children are being destroyed under the garment of male dominance. I am not a conspiracy theorist but as a Cultural and Spiritual Scientist that damned HAARP machine does not sound too crazy. I do not put it past a world run by over masculinated males to create something that kills in mass proportions, wait that has happened..NUCLEAR BOMBS! So this is not impossible, the question is, what will you make possible, Mama? What will you do in this day to save Haitian children? They are being taken away to far away lands by the children of the murderer, do you trust this? How will you send those of us men who love the Goddess into battle? Will you call on us to defend the Temple? Where will you build your new world? Will you build it in the Ghettoes or The Mountains, or both? Why have you hesitated in doing what you already know to be truth? Why have you accepted the world of men as your world, when your world promises Heaven? We your true suns shall fight for you, I your true son/priest shall preach your name eternally, but will you accept your own power? Why are you waiting there in the mud, the muck and the mire of Patriarchy, when it has made you low?

You are the savior of Haiti, Yemaya! You are the savior of Haiti, Oshun, You are the Savior of Haiti, Oya! Kali! Sekhmet! Harriet! Marie! You are the Savior of Afrika, and indigenous people everywhere! You are the Earth's Messiah reborn of HER own volition, empowered by HER own soul, manifested in the waters of HER own spirit. SHE who has worn serpents in HER hair and they feared you, the Darkest of Dancers On The Moon, The Sun Swallower, Power beyond Power, You are the Everlasting Temple and we need you!!! I need you!!!! You need You, Laugh, Love, Live.......
Dark Goddess Live!!!!

Now Is The Time For All Dark Goddesses!!!!

2010-01-15T21:25:00.000-08:00

If ever we need you Mama we need you now, our people are suffering, dying, they lie crushed under cement and stone, they are on fire from hunger and in need of quenching for thirst! Now is the time for Afrikan Woman to be self, be truest self, yo uhave been told self is unworthy, I say never! You have been told that self is silly and trite, I say never! You have been called a fool for wanting to access your inner power, your inner you, I say never!!! Never allow yourself to be accepting of others designs for you, yes dear Goddess even me!!! My goal is to blow your horn, your job is to wage warfare against the wicked!!! I am at the gate guarding the Temple, you are the Temple giving me my mission. My mission is to destroy all those that come near you without reverence, without bended knee. I do this mission and I live it well!

It will be however a silly face I will wear if I am standing outside of an empty Temple. If you have not accepted you are divine then I am a damn fool, if you allow others to diss you by calling you a nut for believing in you then I am made low. I know all stand against you, for here I am standing and beholding your enemy. Yet the Great Mother made no mistakes, you made no mistakes when you made decision to come here! Yes my love you made that decision, you reached into yourself and created womb and womb spat you forth all at the same time. Imagine that you created your creator and your creator created you simultaneously, think on that one......Ok time is up, It is, was and has always been you!

They keep you looking toward the sky my Goddess because they can easier take bread from the tables of your children. They keep your face in an antequated, set of religious books written by them so that you will not notice them removing their clothes in preparation for a wicked act!!! Yes as long as you look to the sky and to their writings your children will be hungry and you will have been victim of degradation of your body. Alas' they wish for you to be in two positions, on your knees and on your back. These fools are in for it once you begin to love you huh? What a rude awakening when you decide you will be your natural self.

What a cosmic shift that we will undergo when you decide you are not a sex slave and a baby maker. What a seismic change when you decide you are the ruler of divine sexuality and a producer of immortals! Wow, when that happens you will be unstoppable. You will be unconquerable, you will manifest yourself and your womb as the true source of "The Word". Before Alpha declared himself you gave him permission to do so, you also told Omega that he may end it but you will decide when,how and yes even if it happens at all! I your Priest born to preach your name find it comical that you allow them to simplify you in terms like Queen and Wombman, yes that is cute at best, cute and small. Yet when you declare yourself or rather just BE, the world shall know your names! Yes I said names, you are too multi-voluminous, too galactic, too multi-faceted to give you one name, so we your children and servants we call you by many.

I am so glad to be alive in this day when you awaken. I am so glad to see you have accepted this call to join on to yourself, your own self. To reconnect with your womb, to love your hands, and eyes and breasts and abdomen. To kiss your own spirit and hug your soul, to embrace us even as we foolishly call you by other names then that which you have chosen for self. I am pleased in this day, in this hour at this blessed time of honey coated butterfies and ebony lightning, the kind you shall produce because they said you could not. Your need to just prove your point is so glorious and I love you for it. I shall stand at this podium, at this microphone and amplify my voice to speak your victory, to spit your tuth to our people and to the constellations. Now is your moment, your day, your year, as it has always been, Now is the time for you to be yourself....GODDESS!!!

2010, Udja Temple and You!!!

2009-12-23T11:03:00.000-08:00

I am looking forward to the start of the new year which for the enemy starts on Jan.1st but I am going to return us to the ways of our Mothers in Afrika shortly wherein we use the Kemetic Calendar, Damn this world. We are creating our own paradigm now, from here on out the Afrikan Goddess reigns supreme, sister wherefore ye' go so shall we go!!! In this hour of darkness I peer into the moon seeing HER Yoni bright and beautiful it is in Chalice form. I am smitten by HER wonderful presence again, yes the mighty Chalice, I am following her Gourd HER precious drinking Gourd, for SHE is all. I have been attacked again for bowing to the grace of the Dark Mother, but bow I still shall, I will stand however to smite my enemy! We shall not give these silly men a voice here in our ministry lest they have come to learn. Afrikan Woman/Goddess it is your time and all others must pay heed. The world of men has ruled long enough, Global Aryan Supremacy has ruled long enough, Afrikan Goddess....SHINE!

We shall launch several new initiatives in 2010, one of the major ones I am excited about is the Udja Temple Study Group initiative. This will be the ability for each of you in your own area to form a study group that will converge on a single location and connect with worldwide study groups! All of these groups will be given info to read and they can of course do their own studies, they will also have the oppurtunity to present their studies publicly, haven't quite figured that out yet! In a sense we are creating a beginning stage for Black Goddess Consciousness Studies curriculum which can develop into an actual school for the studies at some point, that is my dream, a private school for the study of the Afrikan Goddess! Can you imagine that? Yes people I dream big, and you should too sisters and brothers. The study groups are also a good place to start for those who would like to formulate what would eventually be temples under the Udja Temple banner, group coordinators or someone in said group can be trained later to take on ordination, it is a long process so don't worry we don't just throw licenses around, lol.

We are also still considering a smaller version of the Black Goddess Conference it seems that not much was place on the startup but a Symposium can still be had perhaps a one or two day deal with straight lecture, lunch and Mass concept still to elevate the consciousness of our people from the power of the Afrikan Goddess. If the interest is still there August may be a good month for this. Also another major initiative will be our Social Services Ministry, I have someone in mind a Goddess who has been in my life for some 13 years now and has had a profound affect on the start of this work that I do, She shall be introduced at a later date however so please no questions for now, lol! I love secrets! Anyway this Social Service Ministry will be one of the most powerful entities we have.

I am also still looking to create a team of folks interested in learning from me personally and going out to the highways and byways to preach HER holy name, interested? I can be contacted at udjatemple@reborn.com.

Prayer: Her Created Self

2009-11-02T13:26:00.000-08:00

Before the beginning was the Womb and the Womb was Goddess and SHE is was and always will be Blackness, there were no parts, there were no pieces, just darkness multiplied by itself, magikal and wondrous, ever expansive yet simultaneously infantesimal.The womb being first and all else being next SHE made decision to become the myriad of things the endless things that repeat themselves. HER mind is more than genius for SHE defines that as well. Here in our finite understanding we will yearn to return unto HER thinking we need religion! Being the created of a free-willed creator SHE allows for our silliness. Our love is one sided, SHE loves us and we love others! Afrikan Men abandon with such recklessness Afrikan Woman, not particular Women but all of them. Afrikan people abandon Afrika, not individual Afrikans but the collective, worst of all and the scariest of these is the abandonment of Afrikan Women of themselves. For this last statement, it is as if the rain were to come no more, there would be a slow and painful death of organic life....we are here now slowly and painfully dying.

Yet the rain, the Afrikan Woman is Goddess thus it is SHE that must return us to organic life. SHE that must bring that elemental magic that we have been missing. SHE can reconnect us to ancestral legacies only given to us through historians and cultural scientists, there is the other connection...SPIRIT. SHE is the alleged HOLY GHOST in the trinity spoken to by christians, SHE is the Black Stone kissed by millions of Muslims...SHE is the Savior Messiah we have researched and called other things! Now that SHE is coming to a wakeful state and returning to HER throne of power, the question remains, what will you do?

Black Goddess Warrior Prayer-Song Before Battle!

2009-11-02T13:07:00.000-08:00

Warrior of Righteousness
Lady of the Machete
Strength of my Hand
Power in my Feet
Thank you Lady Warrior, Sister of Thunder, Queen of Lightning for your power
In reverence to you I bow my head and tip my spear
I bear witness to your Windstorm, to your Hurricane
I bear witness to your Earthquake, and your Volcano
You are the name I call before battle
This day I face an adversary
This day I see an enemy
Some days this enemy is my own fear
Some days this enemy is my own doubt
Give me strength
Dark Warrior Mama Warrior
Give me joy
Give me power over my enemies
Let me be the victor
Let me be the destroyer of those who
seek to harm me your child
Let me be the destroyer of those who
seek to harm my children
who seek to harm my family
and all that I love
I am the child of the Blackest of Warriors
She who is not seen in the night
She who is the night
She who is the fog
and the mist
My Warrior Goddess shall move my hand
to conquer my fear and remove my doubt
I am the child of Dark Warrior Goddess
All that I touch shall come to success
All that I say of righteousness comes to pass
I am my mother's Child
and her child is everlasting!
