Stop Bowing to the Weather: The Raw Science of Self-Determination

Stop Bowing to the Weather: The Raw Science of Self-Determination Let’s stop playing games with our potential. Too many of our people are walking through life functioning as pure biological thermometers—measuring the temperature of the room, absorbing the trauma of the environment, and letting outside chaos dictate their blood pressure, their peace, and their bank accounts. When the block is hot, you panic. When the system acts according to its design, you crash out in despair. When society screams scarcity, you download the fear and replay it at your own dinner table. That is not living; that is reacting. That is letting the scenery convince you that it’s driving the car. On this sacred day of Kujichagulia (Self-Determination), wrapped in the sovereign frequency of royal Indigo, the ancestors hand us an uncompromising reality check: "I determine my destination; the environment is just the scenery." The terrain in America is real. The redlined districts, the hostile courtroom...

Remember Your Family (sample)

Today is called Kujichagulia (32222-6). This is the day when we celebrate our self-determination and family.

As a member of the tribe, I'm always thinking about how I can best improve my life so that I can build something that is lasting. If my internal supports are collapsing, then what's the point? And to me, family is a huge part of that support. It's important to have both people and community in your life that you can rely on when you're facing hard times or need advice for how to move forward.

I want to encourage all of you to take some time this weekend to not only connect with your family, but also reflect on some of the things they've taught you over the years: What are their values? How do they express them? What lessons have they learned that they want to pass down to you?

This knowledge will be helpful whether or not your family is still around by your side. Sometimes there are people in our lives who we love and respect, but for one reason or another, we don't see them every day. That doesn't mean we shouldn't work hard at keeping those relationships alive!

How to pour Libations

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...
