"I hope my last word is a big, loud laugh!" Sandra Cisneros told me. “We worry about death so much. But death is one of the things I don’t want to be afraid of.” I loved talking with Cisneros about embracing impermanence, in the latest conversation for my @tricyclemag series about bardo and the art of living. A novelist, poet, essayist, and short story writer, Cisneros is the author of THE HOUSE ON MANGO STREET, which has sold more than six million copies and is celebrating its fortieth anniversary this year. Cisneros’s other books include the novels MARTITA, I REMEMBER YOU (2021) and CARAMELO (2002); a memoir, A HOUSE OF MY OWN: STORIES FROM MY LIFE (2015); and her first poetry collection in twenty-eight years, WOMAN WITHOUT SHAME (2022).

From Rev. Sonja Mathis: The 5th principle reminds us that It is not enough to know the Truth but we must live the Truth we know.. We walk our talk by embodying our Truth even when we can not always see how we will overcome the challenges before us. Strength is the Power for this period. Strength is different from Strong. Strong is a changing capability but Strength endures. Truth strengthens mind, body, spirit which allows release, unlearning and relearning. We are New "Be"ings in Christ. ---- see Rev. Sonja's whole talk at seattleunity.org, under 'services'. #Generations #SundayService #meditation #SpiritualCommunity #AncestorWisdom #home #UnityCommunity #service #OnlineChurch #NewThought #slu #SpiritualSeattle #SacredSeattle

Take a moment to connect with the spirit of Harriet Tubman, a beacon of courage and resilience who overcame unthinkable obstacles to lead others to freedom. She is a powerful voice whispering in the winds of time, reminding us that we have an inherent strength within us that can move mountains. Talking to our ancestors, like Tubman, can provide us with guidance, strength, and a sense of connectedness that transcends time and space. Let her story inspire you, guide you, and give you the strength to keep pushing forward. 🌟 #AncestorWisdom #HarrietTubman #Guidance #Strength #Courage #Inspiration
Your home is your sanctuary. When you walk into your home how do you feel? Do you sense an energy that doesn’t feel good? Do you have difficulty sleeping in a particular room? Do you sense there has been a spirit walking on the land? Properties, land and structures carry energy. It may be an energy that was left from previous tenants. It may be there was a trauma that happened on the land generations ago. It may be many different energies that have been imprinted there. I’ve been healing the land and clearing properties for years. But haven’t actively promoted it as I was busy traveling to expos. Recently, the beings of the Earth and Spirits of the land have been speaking more loudly. They desire to heal the energetic imprints that have been left on the land you reside on. To heal the pain that impacts it to bring the land and Earth back into balance. Interested in experiencing what a shift can take place for you, your home and property?

Oral story telling is an ancient tradition in many cultures. Knowledge is passed between generations, often around a fire at night.

Transformation, ceremony, growth..... Holding space for beautiful women in my medicin, walking with the Sangomas of the zulu people, learning, honoring the ancestors and transforming more and more into my autenthic self. I'm mostly in ceremony and meditation, study, journaling, reading books and talking to my mentors/elders that walk alongside me inspiering me to create my medicin with guidence from the ancestors. We co-create, it's damn powerful and I'm all so greatful for this apprenticeship that I'm in and where it will take me. Life has ben rough lately but yet so beautiful. It's just the way it should be right now. I'm embracing every bit of it, working with my hubby to creat the very best of both ancestrypaths to be shared. I'm changing language on here to english but push "translate" if you need ❤️.

The Gallae’s tools of the trade 🏳️⚧️❣️ Pictured above is a Roman relief depicting the dress and tools of the trade of the Gallae of Rome. We will continue breaking down this relief, a treasure trove of information on the Gallae, but we’re beginning with the material items used in Kybele’s temple. The tools of the trade depicted above include: - Cymbals, tympanon, and double Phrygian flute: These instruments were used to create the loud, joyous music characteristic of Kybele’s temple and worship - Aspergillum: This tool is used for sprinkling cleansing waters for ritual purification. The Gallae’s aspergillum is made of leafy herbal branches that hold water well for sprinkling purposes - Cult items purse: This purse was used to hold and carry the material goods of their temple in style. It was cylindrical, with a cone-shaped cape, braided details, and a carrying strap - Offering bowl: In one hand, the priestex holds a bowl of offerings. The majority of these are almonds, which are an important symbol in the myths of Kybele and Attis, her consort. Closer inspection shows what seems to be a pinecone sitting in the back of the bowl as well. We consider this to represent the use of pine nuts as an offering, as pine trees are a central symbol of Kybele’s - Knuckle bone flogger: This flogger is made of strands of knuckle bones attached to a handle for self-flagellation. The Gallae had complex practices involving voluntary applications of pain for ritual purposes, including purification through the release of pain. We’re currently doing more research into the historical & religious practices of flagellation for more insight into their traditions; we hope to share our findings soon! #transcestors #gallae #transancestors #queerancestors #queerancestorworship #queerancestorwork #transancestorworship #transwitchcraft #transmagick #nonbinarywitch #nonbinarywitchcraft #enbywitch #transwitch #queerfolkmagic #queerwitch #queerwitchcraft #ancestorworship #ancestorveneration #ancestorwork #ancestorwisdom #ancestormagic #queerancestors

Hi beautiful, I hope you all had a nice eclipse day on Monday! Here are a few tips for nourishing your skin during the new moon. Our ancestors (in many cultures) followed the moon phases to plant, harvest, navigate, celebrate, and rest...etc. It's important for me to learn about it and keep up the traditions. For example, in China, the new moon symbolizes fresh starts, new beginnings, and the potential for growth and transformation. It's a good time to rest and take care of your skin. Chang'e (pronounced Chang "uh?") 🇨🇳🌙🌕🧚♀️ Chang'e, the Chinese moon Goddess whose loveliness is celebrated in poems and novels. She is a beautiful elegant goddess who dances with the moon and clouds with a little bunny behind in her flowy long sleeves. Have a beautiful week and let me know if you want to learn more about moon phases and skin care rituals 💖 #skincare #newmoon #change #chinesegoddess #holistichealth #ancestorwisdom

🔥 when you draw strength from the wisdom, resilience, and love of your ancestors, there ain’t nothing in this world that can break you. their spirits live on within you, guiding you, empowering you, and wrapping you in protection. remember who you are. … the embodiment of generations of strength, courage, and determination. their spirits walk beside you every step of the way. you’re rooted in something deeper, something greater than yourself. you ARE them. you are the embodiment of their enduring spirit. xx renée x @ritualofheart ….:….. the resilience of your ancestors …..:…. #AncestralStrength #SpiritualResilience #LegacyOfResilience #ancestorwisdom #StrengthFromThePast #RootedInHistory #AncestralLegacy #ancestorconnection

This song always brings me back home to my heart. My father shared it with me when I was a little girl and the way my heart sang and cried tears awakened a deeper love for the Great Mother. I share with you to remind you that we know how to honor ourselves, it’s natural to us. I invite you to honor yourself today with a song that connects you to your heart (love). From my heart, Dariela 🌹
✨Spirituality is about authenticity..it’s not about having it all figured out but having acquired tools and coping mechanisms to better respond to our very real lived experiences. 🏙️Being back and rooted in NY, closer to my closest, triggered, resistant to this jungle of its own and often questioning why I’m even back here lends this realization most potent and truer than ever so as to not be swallowed up by her often dense pull but to find her pockets of magic. It can either deepen your practice or pull you further away, we get to choose. All the triggers, resistance and density can be the medicine we get to transmute + alchemize and eventually move us closer to our personal and collective liberation. And yes, we also get to take a break away, commune with the natural world, connect with our innate wisdom that of our ancestors then come back and reintegrate it all over again it’s cyclical and it’s necessary. This is where I find the Buddhist concept of the “beginners mind” so useful. 🪷What are the practices and daily rituals that keep you rooted when navigating chaos? 🪐Perhaps this could be something to reflect, contemplate or journal on. Maybe even an entryway or portal into realizing these practices or rituals that could be of support to you. 🌬️Feel free to share your reflections. Conscious dialogue, even in these spaces can offer a sense of community and I find this to be most needed. 💭Thoughts inspired by a live I watched earlier today + my own reflections as I continue to navigate my calm in the chaos. As I’ve shared before, working with the elements, in particular water and fire..action in flow. Makes sense coming out of pisces ♓️ now in Aries ♈️ but also syncing my moon cycle phases throughout the month has been a game changer. Lots here but that’s how I roll in support of resonance. 🔥Happy first day of the month, may we always remember to begin again and again and again.
