The Scarcity Simulation: Why Your Crown is Slipping and How to Reclaim Your Axé

The Scarcity Simulation: Why Your Crown is Slipping and How to Reclaim Your Axé Pull up a chair on the porch, family. Take a slow, deep breath, expand your chest, and let’s sit with today's medicine. Today, we are standing flat-footed on our journey, moving under the vibrant, green, and fertile frequency of Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics) . Let’s stop playing small. Economics is infinitely deeper than mastering the digits in a bank app; it’s about mastering the flow of divine resources and recognizing the raw power already sitting in our rooms. Too often, the Western matrix tricks us into looking right past our own wealth. To truly step into Ujamaa, we have to view it through the lens of Ujima (Collective Work) —understanding that our collective economic sovereignty only awakens when we lock arms. In The Warrior Handbook for Life’s Journey and The Player’s Pyramid (available at ha2timgyenyame's Author Page ), we are reminded of a hard truth: your internal resources must align...

Stand Up, But Be ready To Fight

 

Stand Up, But Be ready to Fight

Seeking what is yours in the court of an oppressor never works out well. This story reminds us of this. I think that it was stories like this that really made me fall in love with Aesop. He showed that if you really want something that requires you getting permission from others you have to be willing to fight. Freedom can never be given it has to be snatched out of the hands of oppressors. This story does a much better job of demonstrating this because in this story the lions make a reply to the poor hares. 


I can see the hares going to lion universities integrating into their system, and still be hunted as prey. Learning the ways and laws of lions, but after all that they end up being shut down by the simple  fact. 


What is crazy to me is the rabbits were not seeking separation, they simply were asking to be treated equally, by the lions and other animals. But this request was out the question because the one thing that rabbits needed they did not have. In order for the rabbits to get equality with the larger beast, they needed to be able to protect that equality. The hares had no claws and fangs to hold the other beast of the planes off of them.


This is a great lesson for those of us in positions of servitude, oppression, and injustice. My take is that a beast is going to be a beast as long as he is allowed to be. The only thing that will stop a beast is if the consequences of doing what they do are raised. This does not mean that the hares have to become meat eaters or even change their way of life, it just means that the hares have to construct weapons that will strike fear in the heart of the hunters.


“The hares harangued the assembly, and argued that all should be equal. The Lions made this reply: “Your words, O Hares! are good; but they lack both claws and teeth such as we have.”


The hares presentation was excellent; they followed the rules of the congress, parliament, or assembly. But in the final analysis they lacked the power  to defend their position. In order for the other animals to make everyone equal they would have to police themselves, because the rabbits could not do it. They would have to hold themselves accountable because the hares could not do it. Although the hares made an excellent presentation and what they said was true it went against the nature of the other animals especially the lions in the assembly.

How to pour Libations

Image
We pour libations/ to connect with all that is/ and to cleanse our hearts/ I need to start this article by stating this information is based on my personal experience. I have been pouring libations for at least 20 years all over the country and personally. Libations for me is a process of remembering, and connecting or re-connecting to not only the Spirit but everything around us . When we pour libations we are opening ourselves as well as the group to the axe ' of the entire Universe . I first must admit that I do not belong to a group, sect or religious order. I am a lay man who have made a personal connection with the world, and the spirit. By pouring Libations we strengthen these relationship. So let me define a few things first so that we can be on the same page. Libations - the process of pouring or giving a sacrifice to form a connection with this world and the spiritual realm. Spirituality - the state of establishing and maintaining relationships Axe...

The Art of Adaptation: Unveiling the Wisdom of The Bat and The Weasels

  The Art of Adaptation: Unveiling the Wisdom of The Bat and The Weasels “It is wise to turn circumstances to good account.” — Aesop In the world of fables, we often find animals acting out the deepest parts of our humanity. These creatures, symbols of instinct and survival, carry lessons older than time itself. The Bat and The Weasels , retold from the mind of Aesop and reimagined through the lens of Gye-Nyame Journey, isn’t just a tale for children—it’s a guide for those grown folks who still seek mastery. When the World Has You Cornered Here’s the setup: A bat falls to the ground and is caught by a weasel. The weasel hates birds. So the bat, slick with the tongue, says, “I’m not a bird—I’m a mouse.” The weasel lets him go. Later, the same bat falls again. This time, a different weasel catches him. But this weasel hates mice. So what does the bat say? “I’m not a mouse—I’m a bird.” And he gets set free again. Now, you could say the bat was being dishonest. But hold on. Let’s go de...
