the list of reasons I made for myself the day before beginning my initiation

WHY

Because I believe the reclamation of indigenous knowledge is core to creating better futures.

Because I want to be happy, aligned and healed.

Because climate justice.

Because “remember” is the core of what I want to teach people.

Because I want to merge with this water spirit. I’m so curious about its presence in my dreams.

Because I know this process is connected to my music / making music / fullest expression.

Because indigenous knowledge is going to save the world.

Because it will help me get to zero waste, eventually. ;0)

Because I want my family to heal.

Because the magic is already coming through and I’ve been searching for a system to better understand it.

Because I’m already spiritual.

Because this is a part of self-mastery.

Because maybe my gut will heal.

Because I think Black people need this kind of leadership. I know I do.

Because this is a practice of trust.

Because my ancestral calling is part of my magic, supports my magic, is my magic.

Because I want to know which spirits are working with me, because it’s already happening.

Learning their language of communication and going into the sensations and into the emotions as they arise.

Because I’m not trying to get by, I’m trying to get free.

Because I know there is a curse that needs to be broken, and this will help me break it and get more free in my life and in love.

So, because LOVE.
