If one is to be initiated to any deity such as you who want to be initiated to water, then yes the Priestess who has the Ase of that diety must be the one to initiate you so as to pass along the power.

Greetings Obara Meji,
Well done . Though you say you are holding back, in this time, you will no longer be able to write without going deep .
The wisdom embedded in this post is beautiful. I loved the use of energy and the expressions of gender to clarify common misunderstandings of deities and spiritual practices.
As I read, I was also able to apply the concepts you explained to Christianity and Islam…without questioning validity of a religion or spiritual practice, it is evident that the further west it travelled, the focus and interpretation took more form than energy.
In this time, with easy access to inFORMation, everybody knows everything and results become short-lived because of ignorance and dilution. There are also challenges faced by those who seek to learn authentically and the truth becomes exclusive and expensive to access.
There’s so much more to unravel.
However, I am grateful for your willingness to share your light, wisdom and experiences with us freely.Blessings

Thank you Obara meji, may the forces of the universe strengthen and bless you.please I want to ask must I be initiated by a priest or priestess to the water Goddess. I’m from the eastern part of Nigeria. Secondly I had a dream where I was given money, afterwards I went to an occasion and was trying to collect a souvenir,then an old man asked me to forget about the souvenir and come help him sweep his compound. Please what does helping him sweep signify. Thank you

The dream is a private message so I will not share my insight to it publicly although you seem not to mind since you asked ot here.Blessings to you and yours

Ok, When a deity begins to take on images and depictions, that expression of the deity is more of exalted man than god. The more form it is, the more it takes on image, the less that it is a pure beam of light and the more it begins to act as how anything would living within our dense human environment.
I know that the orishas take on different personality, so it can be easier for the human mind to comprehend, but I wanted to know how do we humans keep the energy in their highest and purest vibration.

This is a very good question, let me try to do justice to it.
Here in Africa our Ifá/Orisha traditional practice is a practice of sacrifice. I am not shy to tell you that most often than not, blood is included in the sacrifice. Why should I be shy to tell you this when many of you or your families eat meat, those animals Sacrifice their blood for your sustenance.
However in other places in the world these same sacrifices are done and are done without the use of blood to the same deities we venerate but are called by different names.
In the Hindu tradition there is a goddess calledLakshmi, this goddess is a river goddess and has characteristic traits of our Osun here in Africa. I am not sure if blood is given to her secretly in that practice but I have never heard of it, however our osun, when consulted, to solve a problem for someone, may ask for a woman fowl or guinea or something else.
Us Africans are looked upon as barbaric because we will ring the fowls neck off and give the blood to Osun.
.
While when worshiping Lakshmi, they will spray perfumes and give fruits and flowers. This seems safe and so people will gravitate to this type of ritual.The Africans however are keeping the purity of the deity in the way they feed its essence because blood is life.
When a child is born, it comes from the mother’s womb with blood. Without blood there is no life.
So what you see as barbaric among the Africans in their veneration of spirit is true to form pure as is creation.
We keep the purity of our deities by venerating them, as close as we can to nature and the natural life of living, this needs more explanation though.
There is more to this answer, but my enemy is tired I have been working all day.-
Thank you! I appreciate you answering. ❤

Just have to say, Wow… This post is higher level thinking and reading all together. Thank you Obara Meji for breaking things down for this human mind to learn to understand. This is a must read again because a lot of important information regarding the Yemoja or Yemaya to be learn here. I really enjoy and learn a lot when you tell your story and write it. I just have to say Thank you because you put so much into your writing for us to learn and have a better understanding of things.

Aboru boye teacha! Great Post and thank you for your wisdom, can I just say for me some of these literal meanings helped me to process and come to some kind of understanding until I knew better as you said humans minds are limited so we try to process by adding literal meanings whichi know is wrong. I have a question in the world of dreams when a deity appears as a gender does this also have a meaning ? because from what I understand energy is male and female so why appears as a gender ?
-
We are living is a material world, a place that is chaotic. A deity will appear to us any how they choose. As l said it is how the human being limited brain process what they have encountered.
In the human way of understanding the human understand genders, man and woman.If a bath tub appears to a human in the dream or a tire and claim to be Jesus or God or an archangel, persons would be befuddled. However the Christian Bible said God appeared to Moses as a burning Bush.
Is the Christian God a burning bush? We can assume it as such according to Moses and the story the Bible told. However that may have been how that divine super being (God) manifested to lower intelligence here on this planet .-
Ahhhh I understand now, but if the world of dreams Communicate via symbols doesn’t the gender it appears as have a meaning that’s my question? The reason why I ask is this lool it may sound funny to you but for me I understood with the lil knowledge I have about Interpretation, before i knew it myself that I was pregnant a deity would appear in different ways shape or Form and I would know I was pregnant and what child I am to have. Do not be Offended teacher am just learning.

I thank you very much for this comment and your story. I would like to learn more about your Dinis traditional practice. All traditional practice are the same and are ine, culture, language and environmental may create the variant but all are but ONE.
There is a practice in Igbo land that is very similar to what we call Zion in our Jamaican culture. In their culture, imagery, colors and then some.
Spirit is everything and everything is Spirit. Spirit is plural like saying the word people. However not everything or everyone is plugged into spirit. In other words not everyone is attuned or conscious of Spirit of whatever is.This is too intricate to detail in a commnet, when the minds here have grown, I will write a post or teach a class on this . Thanks once again my brother!

Thanks for breaking down this subject O! Also appreciate your breakdown of the practice of sacrifice in your response to Toy. Can’t discuss Orishas without referencing veneration. In your follow-up post on Orishas, can you please shed light on what it means when multiple Orishas choose an IFA initiate?

Greetings Obara!
Thank you for this reminder.
Question
What of a situation where the mental blockage/spiritual interference is preventing the person from acknowledging that a problem exists.
Can one stand in the gap to clear another? Can one person seek help on behalf of another?
p.s.
Maybe yuh bruk wi bad cause mi di expect instructions fi do a bath at the end
IB, we are now in the waters of the new earth and so these people who read the blog do not engage as when we were in the old earth 2019 backwards. To give baths Willy Nilly as I use to, I cannot and also the Bath for situations like these must be personalized accordingly as I stated in the post.
Now onto your very relevant question
It may be difficult for some people when they introspect to really blame their own thoughts on whatever problems they are facing. Introspection is not a blame however, it is recovery and discovery. Life has a way of allowing humans to lose themselves in pain, anger, misery and what some see as shortcomings of themselves in many areas of their lives. These are things THEY have to deal with and get over. These thoughts also constitutes as suffering, hence blockages.
However, we MUST, force ourselves to WAKE up and be honest about who we are and try as best to overcome thoughts that does not serve us positively. We must strive to improve who we are so that we can move forward.
Àṣẹ!
As always…I truly appreciate the wisdom that this sister has. Messages ALWAYS on time and ALWAYS appreciated
Nuff Respect Erica, thank you very much!
Yes Sis we always have to keep clean ! Something I constantly do is burn my Frankincense in and around my house. To be honest I need to keep up with my spiritual bath. I need to do them with a set frequency and not when I feel something is up. Always hear of people who have had great results from blockages by doing spiritual baths..
Salt and alittle white rum always seem to be in the recipes of baths..
I wish I knew the power of herbs so I could prep mine better.
Much love Sis
Enjoy the readings
Lincoln!!!!! Laws mi glad fi see yuh! How family? Mi nah lie mi glad bag boss when mi see yuh comment!!! Nuff respekk mi Don!
SIS! You know me and family went to New York and got covid- mash us up for 2 weeks- a true you no know- we must have been the last people to get it lol- Nah me deh bout- My email server also changed and it no set up right so some email notifications seem to be getting rejected for some reason- I have to look into it or just use my gmail over my custom email..
You know me nah leave here!!!!
I appreciate LOYALTY, and you have been here with me ever since. X amount ah love for you my brother.
Covid is a spirtenergy from a distant realm not too far away from our planet. It came to do much damage or i should say we interfered with its frequency as we journey toward the new earth.
It attacked and may lost there lives and suffered. It will eventually retreat as we cross the border.
I know this sounds strange, but you will understand one day
Great post obara thanks a lot for sharing with us.
“just making any random bath by yourself is not always the solution because everyone’s situation is personalized to them and so the bath”
Why don’t you to open the spiritual shop again as the solution to many peoples problems depends on it.
Love and Light and big hugs to you and yours.
Bbeey so many people have asked me this same question through email, perhaps 30 emails about the shop.
You have tapped into what is happening here, lol.
I am traveling now and when I travel input the shop on pause because all things sold there are made by me, personalized and consecrated by me, this is done in New York where I live.
However it will be open soon and I am making preparations for all that I need to come with me when I travel because of the many requests that I have been getting.
I will be making baths plenty for many different situations available to all and sundry very soon.
I’m in a state of expectancy.
Thank you Obara
Wow! So sorry for all you have been through, what could really her motive in holding down her children, unless she really belongs to an order that doing this is requirement. I will keep you In my prayers my dear. Keep the faith!

Hi Obara thank you for this message, I so needed it. I’m facing some difficult times now and don’t know what to do, I feel confused and lost and wondering what is my purpose. Thank you for all that you do by teaching, guiding, and enlightening us, thank you, thank you, and thank you.
It gets rough before it gets better my darling, take the advice from the post and if you need to talk, email me. Peace and blessing
Thank you for sharing.

Turepin, long time!
Aboru boye Iya, thank you for blessing us with your wisdom once again! May Olodumare continue to give you divine wisdom Ase!
I think I’ve mentally blocked myself, I also do think it’s as a result of grieving as I lost my dad few months back. I’m really finding it difficult to go back to working as I’m a spiritual student/teacher and I noticed I’ve also been feeling a lot of pains that aren’t mine! Even from states apart. Thank you for this. I’ll do well to do the things you’ve recommended.
Pardon me, I’m not so articulate with writing.
You are welcome my dear, peace
Great post as always Ma.
I just have a thought.
On the aspect of fear, looking at it from a different angle, perhaps fear is neither good or bad, just 2 different faces on the same coin, in-order to create balance. So, on one side, fear is malevolent, on the other side, it can be benevolent, because as was said in the post, once you face your fears, it no longer has power over you. So in a sense, fear is like a spiritual teacher, guiding us on how to reach higher states of mind by letting go of fear. Same goes for other human traits, such as anger, envy, which are all there for us to master so we can grow spiritually.
All very interesting.
You are absolutely correct. Everything is just ONE thing. However everything mirrors itself. Polarity is a Universal Principle and as such this is one way how the human learns
You are welcome my dear
We will have to make them for you my dear
Thank you Obara for the insightful message. May the universe bless and strengthen you
