A radiant Black woman stands in centered stillness, eyes gently closed, surrounded by glowing golden spheres that ripple outward like protective waves. Energy flows through her body and hair in visible currents—beginning at her crown and cascading down her spine, arms, and legs, then spiraling through her feet into the Earth. These glowing strands resemble the early formation of roots—delicate yet determined—stretching deep into the soil below, drawing power from the Earth’s core. Each current pulses with intention, weaving a sacred force field around her that feels both ancient and alive. The space around her responds, shimmering in quiet reverence, as she stands in the fullness of her energetic sovereignty.

Energetic Sovereignty

Energetic Sovereignty Protecting Your Spiritual Space with Intention and Power I don’t just shield myself from unwanted energy. I command the field around me. This is energetic sovereignty. It isn’t driven by fear or paranoia. It’s rooted in power and choice. I decide what enters my space and what stays out. I don’t wait to feel violated before acting. I build my force fields every day, often before I even open my eyes. Not everyone who enters your energetic field does so with love. Some arrive with curiosity, others with envy. Some don’t realize they’re being invasive. And yes, some project themselves into spaces they don’t belong. That doesn’t make me helpless. It activates my mastery. We don’t always talk about energetic boundaries in the…

A Black woman leans in close, her brow furrowed in reverence as her hands trace glowing symbols into a circular slab lit from within. The warm golden light rises from the pattern like memory made visible, casting soft reflections across her focused face. Each stroke is intentional, each line a prayer. This is ancestral magic—structured, sacred, and alive in her hands.

Saturday Saturn Day

Saturday Saturn Day Structure Is My Sacred Container Saturday carries the grounded, commanding energy of Saturn—planet of time, discipline, structure, protection, and divine responsibility. Saturn isn’t here to control you. Saturn is here to fortify you. To help you build what lasts. To remind you that your dreams need foundations, and your energy needs form to flourish. Saturday Saturn Day invites you into sacred commitment—not as pressure, but as devotion. It’s a day to organize your energy. To revisit your boundaries. To make peace with what’s hard—but necessary. Saturn doesn’t offer quick fixes. Saturn offers strength. Through patience. Through intention. Through steady, embodied wisdom. Colors that resonate with Saturn include black, deep navy, charcoal grey, and earth tones like umber or slate. These shades anchor…

In a realm where the tangible meets the ethereal, a luminescent aura radiates from the heart of a verdant grove. Within its embrace, age-old trees stretch their limbs towards a cerulean sky, their leaves whispering ancient secrets. Sandalwood and copal fill the air, grounding and elevating all at once. At the grove's center, a serene pool reflects the dance of golden sunbeams and silvery moonlight, while the gentle hum of mantras resonates, creating ripples that intermingle with the aroma of freshly brewed herbal tea. This sacred sanctuary embodies the very essence of spiritual hygiene, a testament to the harmonious balance between the self and the Universe.

Navigating Energy

Navigating Energy My Spiritual Hygiene Blueprint Spiritual hygiene is how I stay aligned, attuned, and protected. It’s not something I turn to only in times of crisis—it’s a rhythm I move with every day. Just like I bathe to clear physical residue, I cleanse my energy to release what’s not mine, restore what’s real, and reconnect with the parts of me that feel scattered by the world. This path opened deeper for me during a Clubhouse room called Spiritual Hygiene in the Haus of Aṣé, held on a Saturn Day and guided by Sen Say. That space held me. It sparked reflection, clarity, and the urge to gather everything I’ve lived, learned, and practiced into one place. This is that place. These are the practices…

A close-up of a glass jar resting on an earth-toned altar, filled with rose petals, cinnamon sticks, citrine, and a folded parchment scroll. A hand with rich brown skin ties a deep red ribbon around the neck of the jar, sealing it with focused intention. Sunlight pours across the scene, casting a golden glow, while a faint shimmer of magical energy wraps around the jar like a soft halo. The space feels warm, grounded, and deeply sacred, charged with ancestral presence and the quiet hum of manifestation.

Jar Spells

Jar Spells A Sacred Practice of Intention and Energy Jar spells live in my bones. They hold memory, desire, protection, and magic. I use them to focus energy, support transformation, and speak to Spirit in a language older than words. Each jar I build is a sacred conversation. Every ingredient I add carries purpose. The jar becomes a living vessel, charged with my intention, and supported by the elements and ancestral forces. These spells are tactile, powerful, and adaptable. I can reach for them when I want to call in love, hold myself through grief, open new creative flow, or strengthen protection around my children. Jar spells are not new. They are part of a long lineage of African-rooted practices. They’ve carried us through chaos,…

Petitioning the Divine

Petitioning the Divine A Living Practice of Sacred Communication I speak my desires into the unseen because I know I am heard. Petitioning is one of the ways I stay in dialogue with the Universe, with God, with my ancestors, with the unseen currents that guide and shape my life. It’s not begging. It’s not a ritual of desperation. It’s a declaration of truth, of longing, of trust. When I make a petition, I’m not just asking—I’m aligning. I’m choosing to believe in divine collaboration. I’m offering my desires with clarity and humility. I’m choosing to name what matters, and in doing so, I remind myself that I am not alone in this journey. This practice doesn’t belong to any one tradition. It lives in…

A glass of water holds a raw egg just cracked for spiritual reading, surrounded by coarse salt and soft trails of smoke on a wooden altar. The scene captures the sacred stillness after an egg cleansing—the moment where the unseen begins to speak.

Egg Cleansing

Egg Cleansing A Guide to Spiritual Purification In my journey of spiritual practice and self-remembrance, I’ve embraced many tools that help me return to my center. Egg cleansing—also known as limpia—has become one of my most trusted rituals. This ancient practice lives in the bones of many cultures across the globe, passed down through generations as a way to release what no longer belongs and realign with truth. I use egg cleansing when I feel heavy with emotion, tangled in someone else’s energy, or simply disconnected from myself. The egg becomes a mirror and a vessel—drawing out the unseen, absorbing what the spirit is ready to shed, and making space for clarity, softness, and spiritual protection. You don’t need to be initiated into a specific…

A powerful Black woman stands in a snow-covered forest, draped in an elegant, patterned robe and adorned with layers of intricate silver jewelry. Her gaze is steady and unyielding, marked by a small, luminous adornment at her forehead. Beside her, a majestic white wolf with piercing blue eyes walks in silent harmony, its fur glowing softly against the misty winter air. The atmosphere hums with magic and protection, as if the forest itself recognizes their bond and the truth they carry.

Let Them Judge You

Let Them Judge You & You Keep Shining Power of Authenticity and Self-Love Hello, beautiful souls. My name is Shaani, and I have learned what it means to walk in my truth even when the air is thick with judgement. For years, I carried the weight of expectations, the hunger for approval, and the ache of not feeling enough. My freedom has been a winding path, shaped by each moment I choose my own worth over the pull for outside approval. Some days that choice comes easily, like stepping into warm light after a long winter. Other days it feels like lifting my feet through deep snow, slow and heavy, unsure if I have the strength to keep going. Each step forward is a small…

Golden sunlight pours through a window onto a wooden altar, where two tall purple candles flicker beside a deep blue glass bowl filled with herbs. Crystals, rings, and sacred tools rest on a woven cloth, emanating subtle energy. An open book suggests wisdom in motion, while a hand adorned with copper and brass bangles gently touches a glass of water—an offering or a blessing in progress. The space breathes with intention, balance, and the steady rhythm of Jupiter’s guidance. Surrounding plants lean toward the light, echoing the living expansion unfolding at this sacred table.

Jupiter’s Blessing

Jupiter’s Blessing Ancient Power and Modern Pathways to Abundance Jupiter expands everything it touches. In astrology, this planet carries the energy of growth, wisdom, and divine timing. Often called the Greater Benefic, Jupiter reminds us that blessings arrive when we align with our purpose and remain open to the unfolding. Jupiter governs how we dream bigger, believe deeper, and walk in the direction of our becoming. Its energy can bless our careers, our relationships, our money flow, and our spiritual path—but it doesn’t force anything. Jupiter opens the door. We decide if we’ll walk through. Ancient Echoes Across civilizations, Jupiter held the throne of divine authority and cosmic justice. In Roman myth, Jupiter was king of the gods, a symbol of order, law, and sky-born…

Cutting Cords

Cutting Cords Returning to Yourself with Grace, Compassion and Power There are moments on the path when my spirit feels tangled. I sense it in my body. A weight in my chest. A dull ache in my gut. A quiet tension I cannot name. These signals speak to me. They let me know that something is still attached. Something unseen is pulling on my energy. These attachments are cords. Cords are energetic links between me and someone or something else. They form when energy flows back and forth through emotion, thought, physical intimacy, intention, or shared experience. Some cords feel nourishing and mutual. Others feel draining, disruptive, or confusing. Even love can become distorted when the energy no longer supports growth. A cord holds a…

A radiant Black woman sits in stillness, surrounded by fractured teal and gold mirrors that curve into a vortex behind her. Her eyes are closed, lips parted in soft release, and a glowing orange light burns in the center of her chest—alive, sacred, untouchable. Her teal gown billows around her like a wave of self-remembering. Though the mirrors around her reflect fragments, she remains whole.

Unmasking Spiritual Malpractice

Unmasking Spiritual Malpractice The Dark Side of Spirituality Spirituality is sacred to me. It’s where I go to remember who I am, to reconnect with meaning, with Spirit, with peace. But I’ve learned that not everything wrapped in spiritual language is rooted in love or truth. Some teachings, some leaders, some communities—hide harm behind divinity. This is spiritual malpractice. And I speak on it because I’ve lived it. I once trusted a spiritual teacher who spoke the language of light—but moved through the world with deception, control, and coercion. At first, the wisdom felt powerful. I thought I had found someone who could see me. But over time, I realized I wasn’t being seen—I was being shaped into someone more manageable. More profitable. Easier to…
