The Hammer and the Vision: Wielding Double Creativity in the Season of Faith We are deep in the final stretch of 2025, Fam. Can you feel it? The air is thick right now. It’s not just the winter chill; it’s the vibration of completion. We are walking through the 7th Cycle, the season of Imani (Faith) , and we are marching toward the Great Restoration. But today? Today the fractal of time is doing something special. If you look at the map of time, the math is shouting at us. Here we are, standing in the Year of Kujichagulia (Self-Determination) —where we define ourselves and speak for ourselves. We are swimming in the Cycle of Imani —believing in our victory with all our hearts. But here is where it gets interesting: We are in the Week of Kuumba (Creativity) , and today, specifically, is the Day of Kuumba . That’s a "Double-Dose" of Creativity. A double shot of that creative spark. Now, I know what the world tells you creativity looks like. They tell you it’s adding more paint ...

Peace FAM: I bottled up some ambrosia and put a fresh root of ginseng in it. I wanted to experiment to see how long I need to let it sit before the jun would start to change the ginseng. I woke up this morning and the bubbles have not stopped. I have never used a fresh root of ginseng. So I decided to sample some of the tea. I was surprised, the tea was strong but very sweet. Which is great news for the yeast involved in this process. Lets look at some of the benefits of Ginseng:
*Boost energy
*Lower blood sugar levels
*Cholesterol levels
*Help reduce stress
*Promote relaxation
*Help treat Diabetes
*Sexual Dysfunctions in men
*Help with cognitive functions
*Anti-inflammatory effects
*Cancer Prevention
*Treatment & prevention of flu and respiratory syncytial virus
Of course we know that all things have a positive as well as a negative side and here is a list of some of those negative effects that can happen:
Ginseng can cause:
*Head ache
*Elevate heart rate
*Nausea
*Restlessness
*Difficulty Sleeping
*For women- Swollen breast and Vaginal Bleeding
For those interested with taking this understand the elements of ginseng will be enhanced because of the fermenting process, plus I tasted sweetness in my first batch of tea which will further feed the yeast and bacteria allowing for a powerful transformation to take place. Those that have been following me know that I hype up fermented foods because the fermenting process make elements in food that may have not been available before available after the alchemical process (fermentation). I can only guess, but I imagine that some critical nutrients will be released from the fresh root into the drink, plus unleashed in the root that if you get one of these you can consume afterwords. I'm considering naming this "That Luv Me Long Time Ambrosia".
The part of all this that I am excited about is that now that i have found out how to create my own SCOBYs, I am going to bread a SCOBY that will brew only Ginseng root tea. So rather than having fermented green tea and honey acting as the carrier of ginseng. We will have Ginseng tea and honey fermented to create something totally new, and this elixir will be made available to the friends and Family of GNJ only. That is right the only way to get that ambrosia is by becoming a friend of GNJ and in that way you get access to "That Ambrosia". When you give to GNJ, GNJ gives back to you, If you live outside Columbus, oh you will be responsible for shipping fees. The amount of "That Ambrosia" you get will be determined by how much you give.
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...
Peace FAM: I am running into some powerful information about the power of the breath. I have been dealing with the concept of axe' in the breath for a long time, but now I have found scientific proof of the power of the breath, and even more importantly how the breath is taken in the body. My friends and family it has finally been proven that breathing through the nose is the best way to breath, but it has also been shown to help an individual over come or better control obesity, impotence in life as well as erectiel dysfunction, diabetes, insomnia, anxiety, depression, cardiovascular issues, GI disorders, and etc.. Proper Nostril breathing helps strengthen the immune system. This is a simple process that each of us can do to take control of our health. Proper breathing is powerful enough to move you toward health. There is absolutely no reason why anyone can not take advantage of this. It is free, it is relaxing, and it can get you high, what m...
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...
