Ascension: Awakening the Black Spirit
Historically our ancestral roots have been suppressed within the spiritual practices marketed within the western society. This disconnect has played a serious toll on the spiritual awakening process for the black SPIRIT. Leaving our souls helpless and spirits repressed creating a huge shadow within the unconscious energetic body as a whole. America is not only bypassing healing but in turn feeding the collective shadow due to dissociation, racism and this divide and conquer tactic. A narrative that has been perpetuated time and time again throughout history to fuel false superiority and inferiority within America's social constructs.
The history of abuse, institutionalized racism, neglect, abandonment and lack of free will has played a major role in imposter syndrome, post traumatic slave syndrome and many more mental complexities. These have been a direct result of the system built to oppress the black spirit filling it with Negative mental constructs that program eurocentric belief systems and standards that have not and will not ever serve us or our ability to lift our vibration to ascend and reconnect with our SOUL'S will. There is no real basis to determine the worth of a SOUL based on skin color. Yet we are continuously being fed these lies to keep us stuck in a constant state of defeat and dense low vibrational energy. The black community suffers exponentially more than our white brothers and sisters due to racism. We have to shed so many layers, getting a total overhaul of our believed identities while not even knowing what that may be. Seeing yourself through the eyes of America's founding fathers; a system built on oppression in all aspects of life. Not only are we lost, but we feel so trapped beyond despair because our subconscious programming/mindset does not resonate with our SOUL's will. Not only that but we have to transmute/heal ancestral traits, unresolved soul imprints, community, societal, and intergenerational traumas. Also within our mind(mental constructs and physical body). We are in a constant internal battle between our mind and SOUL teetering from authenticity to societal acceptance. While being a part of a country that has been built on our abuse for centuries with no gain. Our spirit has been beaten into submission. You may feel an ever-present anger around feelings of never fitting in or be fully accepted in this world numb to this reality based on eurocentric standards of acceptance that has told us we don't belong.This is the reason why race is always used because you can't change the body you are born in and in turn it perpetuates the ultimate agenda to keep the spirit down and SOUL powerless.
We are a people who rely heavily upon having meaning associated with everything we do in life. So, it's no wonder how not having effective representation that resonates with our soul could be detrimental to our spiritual awakening process. For instance, if your shadow has trust issues with "white" people then you may eventually bypass any healing associated with a white person. This is a result of not fully receiving the information because you're not resonating/identifying with that teacher instructor dieti etc. physically. You are literally walking in the dark with shades on, lost and trying the HARDEST to find what it means to be spiritually aligned without the necessary resources to gain solace. We have been stripped from our culture and the African origins of a lot of the spiritual practices that we seek and need to assist us on this journey. So, when we finally wake up from our autopilot thinking this can be discouraging when you still don’t resonate within these spiritual modalities because the meaning of life for you is missing and you don’t know why. You FIND meaning to life in SOUL resonance.
The only way change will come is through dismantling the notion of superiority and socialized norms. We are all multifaceted and diverse beings, total acceptance of individualism is the only way to end this negative collective consciousness. Why blend in when you can stand out!
We know what needs to be done in the world but until that shift is made in totality we need to be the healing and change we want to see. Awaken your SPIRIT and let it drive your SOUL to it's DESTINY.
Here are a few tips to help you along your Spiritual Awakening journey in efforts to end the demise and stagnation of the black SPIRIT and dismantle RACISM for good!
Start by creating a list of "I AM affirmations" to redefine what you want to be. I'm very adamant on doing EGO work or (Dismantling the "Massa Mentality"), because even though this was our saving GRACE for our SPIRIT, a GIFT from God. it is time to let this adaptation die so we can live more in our light no longer just surviving but thriving. The Ego self is our sense of self comprised of stories we tell ourselves and perceive as true. But know you can NOW detach with confidence and safety. You are not your thoughts, but you reframe them to serve your own agenda of empowerment to level the playing field. We all deserve to ascend and find the light within. When you heal the inner child/ancestral wounds, reprogram your subconscious and integrate your shadow or unconscious along with EGO work you gain control over the mental constructs of the mind and start living more consciously and authentically in the present moment. Believe it until you see it. Fake it till ya make it!
Bodywork- Reconnect with your emotions(energy in MOTION)and physical body. Honor your feelings but don't get stuck there. Awareness of the Post traumatic slave syndrome and how centuries of intergenerational traumas may have had a hold over your life. Energy healing, faith, prayer and clear intentions are a must.
HEARTwork- Self-Love routine, meditate and connect with the heart. The master healer of the highest vibration.

Ancestral Veneration: This is a great way to call on our most high, benevolent and venerated ancestors who have paved the way for us with such grace and resiliency. Tap into this warrior energy and reconnect with your ROOTS. They want you to reap the fruits of their labor. Don’t make their experience/journey in vain. By living your BEST LIFE you give them the healing light they need on their journey as well. * Ask them to show why things are happening FOR you! Let them help you help them. Do your research before doing altar work, so you have a clearer understanding and not fear.
Find meaning in all aspects of your healing journey. Seek mentorship from people who resonate with your unique soul. Look into spiritual modalities to assist you on your healing journey. I.e. Kemetic Reiki, mirror work, self care, Crystals, Kemetic Yoga, Breathwork, holistic therapy, meditation (traditional and unconventional) just to name a few.
Reflect on the past with a gratitude mindset for lessons learned that have prepared you for this moment right NOW instead of a regret mindset. *Allow that old version of YOU(Your limited mindset EGO) to die so the butterfly(TRUE SELF)can emerge.
Trust and invest in yourself. Affirm: "What's meant for ME won't miss ME, it's never personal, it's always spiritual."
Remember when you feel stuck or Self-doubt and low vibrational thinking starts to creep up; just go within and talk to the GOD, and the higher-self within you. It's always been there, listen to the voice that has unconditional love for you. You are a warrior. You were designed with resilience. But when you feel defeated Remember GOD'S grace is all around and IN you. Your talents, skills, hobbies, children, dreams, vision, gifts are all channels for the word of GOD. Be it, listen to it, feel it and solace will come. Salvation is in being YOU. Heaven is within you! Also don't forget, WE STILL HERE baby lol! Affirm: "No weapons formed against me shall or has ever prospered" You are a force to be reckoned with transmuting that dense energy into fuel to fight the battles within your psyche. If that's not resilience idk what is. God's grace is all what he has blessed you with to prevail despite your circumstances no matter how hanis. It's all about how YOU decide to look at it. You are blessed and highly favored! As the collective consciousness in the physical shifts, the spirit(you and ANCESTORS)will transcend and elevate!
When you get to the roots you will find the SOULution. I've been called to bring light to my community one SPIRIT at a time.
