Speaker 1: Luck k ck ck.
0:35
Speaker 2: Ck and gentlemen, lay I have your attention. Please. The
0:55
Speaker 2: show starts in my six hard.
1:11
Speaker 1: Shooting greetings and I say seasoned greetings, compliments of the
1:21
Speaker 1: season to everyone. This is your host, Queen Mother, doctor
1:26
Speaker 1: Chin zero of us speaks where we really highlight building
1:31
Speaker 1: a new legacy and for some persons throughout there, we've
1:34
Speaker 1: had an opportunity here with the Crew podcast to really
1:37
Speaker 1: highlight so many different ideas, so many different resolutions, so
1:42
Speaker 1: many discussions, conversations, and sometimes it may appear like a
1:47
Speaker 1: lecture because educators are educators, and sometimes we really get
1:52
Speaker 1: off into very engaging content, and tonight we really would
1:56
Speaker 1: like to simmer as we get to the of the
2:01
Speaker 1: year twenty twenty five and encourage persons to take a
2:06
Speaker 1: very deep breath, hold that breath with sacred intention and release.
2:18
Speaker 1: It has been a powerful year. For some, they may
2:22
Speaker 1: use the term interesting. For some they may say it
2:26
Speaker 1: was provocative. For some they will say it's so challenging,
2:30
Speaker 1: and yet there have been gains a lot of prosperity
2:34
Speaker 1: for many, and there's also been significant losses. Losses and body, mind, soul,
2:43
Speaker 1: spirit and consciousness. One of the things that we spend
2:48
Speaker 1: a significant amount of time sharing here on US speaks,
2:52
Speaker 1: and you'll hear us say our speaks, building legacy, Our speaks,
2:56
Speaker 1: building a new legacy. US speaks. The essence is around
3:00
Speaker 1: how we embrace our ancestral ancient sacred traditions in contemporary times.
3:08
Speaker 1: How do we as women begin to have these versations
3:13
Speaker 1: on conversations and life centered conversations that offer solution and
3:18
Speaker 1: resolution to how we strengthen ourselves embody, mind, soul, spirit
3:25
Speaker 1: and consciousness and being clear that we are not perfect.
3:29
Speaker 1: We're moving hopefully the intention in the direction of perfection. However,
3:34
Speaker 1: we are not perfect. And it's really important that when
3:38
Speaker 1: we speak of building new legacies, and I say legacies plural,
3:44
Speaker 1: we're speaking of it, at least in this podcast. In
3:47
Speaker 1: these broadcast engagements, usually I have a guest. Sometimes if
3:52
Speaker 1: I don't have a guest, I'm usually referencing which will
3:55
Speaker 1: happen tonight. Just because of the season, there are so
3:59
Speaker 1: many pieces of activities happening during this time. People are
4:04
Speaker 1: preparing for a variety of light centered seasonal change centered
4:11
Speaker 1: end of the year centered beginning of a new years
4:14
Speaker 1: centered activities, and I'd want to highlight that When we
4:19
Speaker 1: speak of building new legacy and just building legacy through
4:25
Speaker 1: a lens of our ancient ancestral sacred traditions speaks, we're
4:33
Speaker 1: also speaking up through a lens of an interdisciplinary form
4:36
Speaker 1: of engagement, an interdisciplinary trans cultural media exchange where we
4:44
Speaker 1: have onversations, life centered discussions, conversations, reasonings, gatherings. We also
4:53
Speaker 1: speak about the actionable deliverables that people are involved in.
4:58
Speaker 1: What are you doing in twenty twenty six when you
5:02
Speaker 1: speak of having a resolution, which is very customary during
5:05
Speaker 1: this time of year, what does that manifesting really look like?
5:10
Speaker 1: How are you going to be able to measure and
5:15
Speaker 1: offer an accountability tool to your resolutions that you speak
5:20
Speaker 1: of at the end of twenty twenty five when the
5:24
Speaker 1: end of twenty twenty six comes forward. Granted that your
5:29
Speaker 1: life remains in place during that time, because we wish
5:33
Speaker 1: for the best. The other part of talking around us
5:38
Speaker 1: speaks building legacy. Throughout this year of twenty twenty five,
5:42
Speaker 1: we've covered information and ideas that happen in the Caribbean,
5:47
Speaker 1: in the forty eight antiguous US, throughout the Americas, from
5:51
Speaker 1: liberally the North Pole to the South Pole and everything between.
5:55
Speaker 1: We've referenced activities in Europe, of course in Africa. We've
5:59
Speaker 1: gone to Oceania and other parts of the world to
6:03
Speaker 1: show a linkage the rippling effect the connectivity of human engagement,
6:10
Speaker 1: whether we've spoken of it through human rights or the
6:12
Speaker 1: violations thereof, whether we've talked about health and wellness and
6:18
Speaker 1: care and compassion or the imbalance and the lack thereof,
6:25
Speaker 1: whether we've talked about peace and all types of peace
6:30
Speaker 1: building efforts that are happening around the world or not.
6:35
Speaker 1: When there's been forms of terrorism, in genocide and warfare
6:40
Speaker 1: that are unparallel in human history. We've had a chance
6:45
Speaker 1: to raise some of these conversations and to listen to
6:48
Speaker 1: how many of our sisters and brothers have offered ways
6:54
Speaker 1: of learning, ways of thriving, not only surviving, but thriving
7:01
Speaker 1: through many of these global affairs. We've looked at it
7:04
Speaker 1: from a microscopic level of some of our individual losses
7:10
Speaker 1: and gains. What has happened in our families, both bi logical,
7:15
Speaker 1: extended and spiritual because they are slightly different. We've looked
7:20
Speaker 1: at our communities, whether we are in the Western Hemisphere,
7:23
Speaker 1: the Eastern Hemisphere, the Northern Hemisphere, or the Southern hemisphere,
7:27
Speaker 1: and we've also looked at things through a lens of
7:29
Speaker 1: things that are regional to compare them. And we've also
7:33
Speaker 1: taken some time to just breathe and be settled and
7:40
Speaker 1: explore ways that we can show respect from one another
7:45
Speaker 1: in the midst of living in an environment that is
7:48
Speaker 1: changing every squintet smaller than a second of the day.
7:57
Speaker 1: With that being said, that's why tonight my deepest intention
8:03
Speaker 1: as the host of I speaks building new legacy and
8:08
Speaker 1: then highlighting the vibration around knowledge and power and prosperity
8:13
Speaker 1: and truth, justice, order, reciprocity, divine righteousness, balance and harmony
8:21
Speaker 1: through a lens of those several principles are an integral
8:26
Speaker 1: part of the ancestral feminine principle of my eye. I
8:33
Speaker 1: encourage persons to as they're progressing through this shift in
8:37
Speaker 1: the Gregorian calendar, because remember we're speaking of the Gregorian
8:41
Speaker 1: calendar coming to an end on December they first, and
8:45
Speaker 1: opening up the new Gregorian year of two thousand and
8:50
Speaker 1: twenty six on January first, because in Ethiopia is a
8:55
Speaker 1: different year. According to the den that are there's a
8:59
Speaker 1: different year and many others. As mynd calendar, there's the Japanese,
9:04
Speaker 1: the Child, There's so many different calendars, so we're speaking
9:07
Speaker 1: through a lens of that, and I'd like to use
9:10
Speaker 1: this time to highlight a couple of points that are
9:14
Speaker 1: linked to the winter Solstice. And some persons are like, well,
9:18
Speaker 1: what are you gonna jump from what the show is
9:22
Speaker 1: to the winter Solstice? Since this is a time of
9:24
Speaker 1: festivities and a time where everyone has their free will
9:32
Speaker 1: to accept, acknowledge, recognize, respect, practice that which provides divine righteousness,
9:43
Speaker 1: harmony and balance for them. There was a time where
9:47
Speaker 1: persons were very very rigid, very strict in regards to
9:53
Speaker 1: you know, if you celebrate Halloween, you must be into
9:58
Speaker 1: devil worship. If you celebrate Hanukkah, then you're overlooking the
10:05
Speaker 1: rights of persons that are not part of the Judaeus.
10:09
Speaker 1: Not speaking of Zionism, it's the Judaeus tradition. And I
10:13
Speaker 1: think this is a great time during these winter months. Again,
10:18
Speaker 1: we speak of the winter season around this time of
10:22
Speaker 1: the year, knowing that December twenty first, customarily around that
10:29
Speaker 1: particular day, is the longest night of the year. Not
10:37
Speaker 1: my words, it's an astronomical, planetary seasonal reality that impacts
10:45
Speaker 1: the entire planet, and even with the Earth tilted. And
10:49
Speaker 1: so this winter solstice time is also a time where
10:53
Speaker 1: people speak of the rising of the light or the
10:56
Speaker 1: ascension of the light, or the awakening of light right,
11:00
Speaker 1: And in some traditions people misrepresent people that actually have
11:08
Speaker 1: ceremonies and acknowledge light, acknowledge the rising of the sun,
11:13
Speaker 1: and it ends up becoming something really wugie wugie in
11:16
Speaker 1: regards to sun worship eers. And I like for persons
11:20
Speaker 1: to just look at the simplicity of how the divine
11:24
Speaker 1: Creator has prepared us and guided us and sheltered us.
11:28
Speaker 1: And understanding unnatural occurrence of the longest night of the
11:34
Speaker 1: year and the beginning of the season where more light
11:39
Speaker 1: comes earlier and earlier each day. I think that it's
11:43
Speaker 1: really instrumental for us to respect, recognize, and at least
11:50
Speaker 1: just acknowledge that. And for those that like to know
11:53
Speaker 1: more information, I really encourage you to look at some
11:56
Speaker 1: of the very engaging information around what is the winter solstice,
12:01
Speaker 1: not the PBGB side, you know, just look at the
12:06
Speaker 1: essence of where some of the words of light, words
12:12
Speaker 1: of positive practice are acknowledged. So I'll share a particular
12:17
Speaker 1: piece from a colleague scholar who has spent some time
12:23
Speaker 1: looking at this season during this time of the month
12:27
Speaker 1: of December in this Gregorian calendar, and for some the
12:31
Speaker 1: significance is always linked to quote the first day to lengthening,
12:37
Speaker 1: most obviously after December twenty first. Typically the shortest day
12:42
Speaker 1: of the year is the day of the winter solstice.
12:46
Speaker 1: Please understand that the ancient Chemites have always believed in
12:51
Speaker 1: one supreme God, or rather expression of divine life force,
12:56
Speaker 1: as stated in the Book of the Coming forth from
12:59
Speaker 1: Darkness into Life, per turn, and that was written and
13:04
Speaker 1: revised excuse me six excuse me six thousand years ago.
13:15
Speaker 1: I'll continue the quotation. Nevertheless, the spirit of life from
13:18
Speaker 1: the Creator exists in all things, and therefore we honor
13:22
Speaker 1: this manifestation of the Creator's life force. Ra in the
13:26
Speaker 1: sun at the midnight hour on the very first minute
13:31
Speaker 1: of the twenty fifth of December. The birth of the
13:34
Speaker 1: sun is commemorated. Beginning of the twenty first, the period
13:39
Speaker 1: of sunlight and each day increased. Thus the sun appears
13:43
Speaker 1: to have been born again from the short periods of
13:46
Speaker 1: daylight in the preceding months. At this time, the sun
13:51
Speaker 1: was in the zodiacal signed Capricorn, which was known as
13:56
Speaker 1: the stay hole. So the infant sun was said to
13:59
Speaker 1: have been born in a stable. Shining brightly on the
14:02
Speaker 1: meridian was Serious the star from the east, while rising
14:06
Speaker 1: in the east was Virgo the Virgin the line of
14:10
Speaker 1: the horizon passing through her center. To the right of
14:14
Speaker 1: Sirius was Orion with three stars in his belt. These
14:21
Speaker 1: stars lie in a line and point towards Sirius, and
14:26
Speaker 1: in ancient times they were known as three Kings. Now
14:30
Speaker 1: this is coming from a post that have been shared
14:34
Speaker 1: amongst several of us that have been studying this astronomical reality.
14:38
Speaker 1: What takes place in the month of December, again respecting
14:43
Speaker 1: the seasonal transformation around winter solstice. But this is based
14:47
Speaker 1: on teachings that were published and you can easily find
14:50
Speaker 1: them in the Saroset community and specifically through the work
14:55
Speaker 1: of the founding elder rah neffer Amen. Some may remember
15:04
Speaker 1: him as raw neffer Amend, some may remember him as
15:08
Speaker 1: Strong And we can go on and on, but if
15:11
Speaker 1: you'd like to learn more, I encourage persons it just
15:13
Speaker 1: look for the asar a Set a U s a
15:15
Speaker 1: r a U s Et Society and there's a variety,
15:20
Speaker 1: a very wide variety of literature that you would be
15:23
Speaker 1: able to locate, find and engage in because people speak
15:27
Speaker 1: of this through a various set of lenses. There are
15:30
Speaker 1: so many that have studied this to really get a
15:34
Speaker 1: better form of clarity on why is this literally globally
15:41
Speaker 1: acknowledges the time of balance, the time of divine righteousness,
15:45
Speaker 1: the time but what is it? Joy to the world,
15:48
Speaker 1: the Lord has come. Let's be real honest on what
15:51
Speaker 1: this means in different vernaculars, in different spaces and different societies,
15:56
Speaker 1: amongst different cultures. And it should be a time of joy,
16:00
Speaker 1: but it's also a time of loss. It's also a
16:04
Speaker 1: time of setting things to rest. It's also a time
16:10
Speaker 1: where we see the old beer come down and go
16:16
Speaker 1: out with the old man with the staff bending over,
16:21
Speaker 1: and we see the baby coming into the new light
16:24
Speaker 1: in the new year, in this season, in this time.
16:28
Speaker 1: So there's a lot that comes with that. So there's
16:31
Speaker 1: been a number. I mean, I have actually done some
16:35
Speaker 1: different publications around this theme, and I made sure to
16:41
Speaker 1: pull from a wider variety of what I refer to
16:44
Speaker 1: as like eglectic knowledge systems that allow for persons to
16:50
Speaker 1: bring in their different observations during this time of the year.
16:55
Speaker 1: There's eight billion humans on Earth and counting. And as
17:00
Speaker 1: much as we may think that there is a singular
17:03
Speaker 1: way of observing, recognizing, acknowledging, and respecting the sun of
17:11
Speaker 1: the Creator, it is not limited to one particular practice.
17:18
Speaker 1: And again, just my perspective, this is just you know,
17:21
Speaker 1: no one has to acknowledge and accept what I'm saying
17:25
Speaker 1: in fullness. That's why I'm always encouraging persons to do
17:29
Speaker 1: your own form of study and to remember to the
17:35
Speaker 1: best coppur ability some of the things that are going
17:38
Speaker 1: to be shared. You know, sometimes when persons think of
17:42
Speaker 1: this season, it's also a time in some vernaculars amongst
17:45
Speaker 1: the chemites, ancient Nole Valley civilization, there is a connection
17:53
Speaker 1: to Kanu. Kanum is the deified one that's on the
17:59
Speaker 1: Potter's wheel, you know, the potter, the one that does forming,
18:02
Speaker 1: the one it molds and works with the Creator in
18:05
Speaker 1: terms of creation. And there's a lot that comes with that.
18:09
Speaker 1: So I may read some of that a little later,
18:12
Speaker 1: but I really like to get back to the point
18:15
Speaker 1: at hand, so the persons are comfortable when we talk
18:18
Speaker 1: about the winter solsism. Just notice that this is the
18:21
Speaker 1: time everybody gets into cleaning. Everybody wants the new year
18:25
Speaker 1: to come in with their house clean, and they want
18:28
Speaker 1: things to have light, and they make sure that persons
18:32
Speaker 1: can see light outside their house. I mean, some people
18:36
Speaker 1: really go all out. So they're decorations. It looks like
18:39
Speaker 1: whether it's Christmas and totality, they've got the rein deer,
18:44
Speaker 1: it could be in the tropics, they're putting in faked snow.
18:47
Speaker 1: They've got it going on. They've got the sleigh, they've
18:51
Speaker 1: got the whole Nativity scene, and then they've got snowmen.
18:55
Speaker 1: So you know what it's like to see a snowman
18:57
Speaker 1: on someone's porch in the middle of the Caribbean tropics.
19:03
Speaker 1: That right, So we still have children and not so
19:07
Speaker 1: young children that leave out food offerings for the Santa
19:14
Speaker 1: that will come and bring gifts. And it's a set
19:18
Speaker 1: of rituals. People have trees with beautiful circular look like planets,
19:26
Speaker 1: ornaments with light and a beautiful star, beautiful nor store
19:33
Speaker 1: bright star at the top of the tree. And so
19:36
Speaker 1: I'm saying these things because sometimes we you know, you
19:39
Speaker 1: do Christmas, I do Quansa, you do Honukah I do
19:44
Speaker 1: you know, we get into Duwali, We get into a
19:46
Speaker 1: lot of how do you express your recognition, support, love
19:53
Speaker 1: and honor of the almighty during this time of the year.
20:00
Speaker 1: And all we're encouraging is that it be done so
20:04
Speaker 1: it authentically provides joy, peace, love and prosperity. Doing that
20:14
Speaker 1: is great if you can, if you have a lot
20:16
Speaker 1: of gifts, even if the boxes are just pretty really
20:19
Speaker 1: you know, very beautified and rapt nice and there's nothing
20:22
Speaker 1: in them. But if it's like a show piece, if
20:27
Speaker 1: you want to go all out and spend until you spend, spend.
20:32
Speaker 1: Everyone has their way that they do this. For some
20:34
Speaker 1: people is what do they make, what do they bake,
20:36
Speaker 1: what do they share? What do they teach? What do
20:39
Speaker 1: they utter? Some people is just being present and showing
20:45
Speaker 1: love and mercy and that really wonderful g word grace
20:54
Speaker 1: and gratitude. For some, it's setting up an altar. For
20:59
Speaker 1: some it is being at mass or having a religio,
21:04
Speaker 1: being part of a religious service. For some is singing
21:07
Speaker 1: with the choir, even if you're not a singer, but
21:09
Speaker 1: at least humming and doing your best to stay on
21:12
Speaker 1: key and acknowledging those choral gatherings. For some it might
21:19
Speaker 1: be going from house to house. I know brothers and
21:21
Speaker 1: sisters that are Buddhists that still remember all the Christmas
21:25
Speaker 1: carols and during this season, even though they're Buddhists practicing Buddhists,
21:31
Speaker 1: they still travel with their families to do these choral
21:34
Speaker 1: songs and caroling from house to house because it brings
21:37
Speaker 1: them joy and it brings peace literally to the world.
21:41
Speaker 1: So when I'm talking about these things, as I'm coming
21:45
Speaker 1: from a lens of whether it's the winter solstice, whether
21:48
Speaker 1: it's Christmas, whether it's Kwanza. And we'll speak about Kwanza
21:52
Speaker 1: in a moment, because I don't wish for anyone to
21:54
Speaker 1: feel like that's being ignored or deleted in the conversation.
21:58
Speaker 1: But i'd like to I like that we're looking at
22:01
Speaker 1: things that are also gracefully respecting that which has existed
22:09
Speaker 1: for millennium, not just man made obligatory types of religiosity
22:16
Speaker 1: and practices, and definitely not things that are designed to
22:21
Speaker 1: replace something that something else, but things that are organically
22:26
Speaker 1: connected to you know, how do you clear space during
22:30
Speaker 1: this time? How do we show respect to the almighty?
22:34
Speaker 1: How do we honor this season, and how do we
22:38
Speaker 1: bring that type of joy and honor in a very beautiful, uplifting, loving,
22:47
Speaker 1: powerfully welcoming way. Right, there was a time where I
22:54
Speaker 1: can remember because while we speak of the winter solstice
22:59
Speaker 1: in December, in September, we're dealing with the autumnal equinox
23:03
Speaker 1: honor about the twenty second and September. In the summer,
23:08
Speaker 1: we have a summer solstice honor about the twenty first
23:13
Speaker 1: of June. And notice this is when the seasons change
23:17
Speaker 1: in accordance, particularly for those living in the nordn the hemisphere,
23:20
Speaker 1: they have distinct seasons spring, summer, autumn, winter. Right, and
23:29
Speaker 1: in the spring the equinox equal days, equal nights is
23:33
Speaker 1: honor about the twenty second of March. And this particular
23:39
Speaker 1: season gives us an opportunity to not only celebrate moving
23:47
Speaker 1: out of the quote cosmic darkness of the year and
23:53
Speaker 1: moving into the cosmic light, you know, with the new
23:57
Speaker 1: year and new beginnings and the opening of light, it
24:02
Speaker 1: also allows us to recognize the significance in terms of
24:09
Speaker 1: ceremonies that are done around this time and the solemnity
24:18
Speaker 1: the balance that comes with them, you know. So for
24:22
Speaker 1: some people it's going to be joyous music, singing, et cetera.
24:26
Speaker 1: For others it may be complete silence. For some it
24:30
Speaker 1: may be a time of fasting and meditation. Many people
24:33
Speaker 1: will fast will they need to after observing certain holidays
24:38
Speaker 1: in November, like Thanksgiving, where there's a lot of beasting,
24:42
Speaker 1: and then again forgetting that this is supposed to be
24:45
Speaker 1: or had originally been a time of celebrating the harvest
24:50
Speaker 1: and honoring those first fruits, right, and it has shifted
24:56
Speaker 1: in terms of a more commercialized piece. And what I
24:59
Speaker 1: love is that people are still regardless of what the
25:02
Speaker 1: intentions were how these holidays started. You know, if we
25:06
Speaker 1: look at some of the work, and I encourage people
25:08
Speaker 1: to look at publications like African People in European Holidays
25:14
Speaker 1: Volumes one and two by Reverend Doctor Barshango b A. R. A.
25:24
Speaker 1: Sha Ngo, not for the lifeheart, but just to get
25:29
Speaker 1: perspective on how people look at African people's observances that
25:35
Speaker 1: have become part of the traditional practice, but they're grounded
25:41
Speaker 1: in very European holidays that not always were designed in
25:45
Speaker 1: the best interests of people of African ancestry, right, And
25:49
Speaker 1: it's important to see that you know some persons don't
25:53
Speaker 1: celebrate anything during this time of the year because they
25:56
Speaker 1: have practices that do not acknowledge man made holidays. Don't
26:00
Speaker 1: celebrate birthdays, Christmas, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Valentine's Day, any of it. However,
26:08
Speaker 1: they still give recognition and honor to the illuminated Christ.
26:13
Speaker 2: One.
26:15
Speaker 1: I just need all this December for a second, because
26:18
Speaker 1: this broadcast tonight is really about opening space and for
26:23
Speaker 1: us to expand to a place of wellness, upliftment and understanding. Again,
26:31
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, like I started, we are not perfect.
26:35
Speaker 1: We're moving in a vibration of perfection. And I say
26:40
Speaker 1: this from a space of honoring those elders still amongst
26:49
Speaker 1: us that still grace us with their presence and give
26:53
Speaker 1: us honor and recognition and wisdom and direct guidance whether
26:59
Speaker 1: we like it or not. And I give thanks and
27:03
Speaker 1: praise to the young people, the younger generation that have
27:09
Speaker 1: the drive, the passion, and wisdom and understanding that even
27:20
Speaker 1: though they know that some of the things that they
27:22
Speaker 1: inherited are really not the best outright nest up jacked up,
27:29
Speaker 1: that they still have a semblance of respect and honor
27:33
Speaker 1: for those that are their physical chronological elders as well
27:38
Speaker 1: as those that are elders and spirit and that that
27:43
Speaker 1: reciprocity between these intergenerational dimensions and spaces, prayerfully will be
27:50
Speaker 1: improved as we move forward with deeper awareness and understanding.
27:57
Speaker 1: I always highlight a couple of things around this time,
28:01
Speaker 1: because when we talk about these sessions and professionals, I
28:08
Speaker 1: want to highlight this small portion. And this is coming
28:11
Speaker 1: from some of the work, and again some of this
28:14
Speaker 1: is research that many of us have done together for
28:18
Speaker 1: some years. Some of this is coming I also encourage
28:22
Speaker 1: persons to look for Maaa x e r U Macru
28:28
Speaker 1: Tep t Ep, another powerful scholar, initiate practitioner of ancient
28:39
Speaker 1: ancestral sacred traditions and a published author who has spent
28:44
Speaker 1: a significant amount of time looking at these astronomical pieces
28:49
Speaker 1: of engagement in dimensions and practices and then sharing through
28:54
Speaker 1: a lens of ceremonial maat truth, justice, order, recip the
29:00
Speaker 1: balanced divine righteousness and harmony, so that we can at
29:04
Speaker 1: least speak to some of these conversations in a more
29:12
Speaker 1: open and clearly understanding, just so that we know that
29:15
Speaker 1: many of the things that we practice, many of the
29:17
Speaker 1: things that we think are just literal, they're very symbolic.
29:22
Speaker 1: And when we speak of astronomy, we're not talking about
29:25
Speaker 1: the man induced or man interpreted astrology. That's very different.
29:30
Speaker 1: There's a science to both astrology and astronomy, but we're
29:33
Speaker 1: speaking specifically through a lens of those astronomical planetary occurrences
29:41
Speaker 1: that are in alignment with the most time, are in
29:44
Speaker 1: alignment with the almighty Creator, you know, with minimal interference,
29:49
Speaker 1: even though many times humans continue to interfere with that
29:58
Speaker 1: which is nature. To highlight this piece is I was
30:02
Speaker 1: talking about the stars of the East, the Three Kings,
30:05
Speaker 1: the connection to the Baby Heru Jesus, the illuminated Christic One,
30:11
Speaker 1: the Virgin link to the Virgo in astronomy. Just so
30:16
Speaker 1: people understand that we're speaking of a heliocal space, we're
30:19
Speaker 1: speaking of angelic space. We're speaking of not just heavenly
30:23
Speaker 1: bodies but star systems, and some people make it a
30:27
Speaker 1: little bit deeper. For the purposes of tonight, all I
30:32
Speaker 1: ask is for openness and understanding and love, joy, peace,
30:38
Speaker 1: more harmony to the best of our ability. But I
30:43
Speaker 1: want to highlight a peace around the science that is
30:46
Speaker 1: shared by my Cadotep and many of these teachings also
30:53
Speaker 1: a part of a recently ascended ancestor, Baba hru akras
31:02
Speaker 1: samad se Peta. May he continue to rise in power
31:08
Speaker 1: among venerated ancestors, clear and free of any interference from
31:15
Speaker 1: the earth, you know, and he being the chief high
31:20
Speaker 1: priest of Sma tawi akacension renaissance and the Shrine of Patah,
31:27
Speaker 1: you know, coming out of the womb of a woman
31:33
Speaker 1: out of this region of the Caribbean. You know, grounded,
31:37
Speaker 1: you know, born yes, in punting Publicaminighana, but raised in
31:41
Speaker 1: the British Virgin Islands and then socialized and retired and
31:46
Speaker 1: laid to rest in the forty eight contiguous US, but
31:51
Speaker 1: impacting the globe. And again look up Sma tawe A
31:57
Speaker 1: s m Ai t a w y and just look
32:02
Speaker 1: for Barba Haru b Aa ba h e are you
32:06
Speaker 1: and if you want to go to his more contemporary engagements,
32:10
Speaker 1: and again to learn the science, you look at the craftsmanship,
32:14
Speaker 1: the science, the creative arts, and the economic drivers that
32:21
Speaker 1: people were involved in. You can look up the shrine
32:24
Speaker 1: of Patar and you can look for the Studio of
32:28
Speaker 1: Patar in New York to see the legacy of his
32:31
Speaker 1: work for decades that people wear and are adorned people,
32:38
Speaker 1: you know, wedding rings, wedding bands, protective garments. You need
32:46
Speaker 1: to see this to understand why would she talk about
32:49
Speaker 1: this at this season, at this time, as we're moving
32:54
Speaker 1: from one part of the Gregorian calendar coming to a
32:58
Speaker 1: close and opening up the year twenty twenty six. Just
33:04
Speaker 1: think about that. Take a deep breath. That one so
33:15
Speaker 1: but in a due moment with some mathematical computations, just to
33:18
Speaker 1: give it some credence for the techies out here. The
33:24
Speaker 1: other rotation of the Sun is called precession or procession
33:29
Speaker 1: of the equinoxes. The procession round of the Sun moves
33:32
Speaker 1: counterclockwise back to the entire celestial sphere, which includes the
33:39
Speaker 1: twelve zodiacal constellations or ages. The procession is caused by
33:45
Speaker 1: the slow, wobbly rotation of the Earth on its own axis.
33:50
Speaker 1: The Earth wobbles or proceeds at a twenty three point
33:56
Speaker 1: five degree tilt. It is this is twenty three point
34:01
Speaker 1: five degree tilt that creates the four seasons of the Earth.
34:07
Speaker 1: The Earth's full three hundred and sixty degree rotation on
34:12
Speaker 1: its own axis takes about twenty five thousand, nine hundred
34:18
Speaker 1: and twenty years. I'm gonna say that part again. The
34:22
Speaker 1: Earth's full three hundred and sixty degree rotation on its
34:27
Speaker 1: own axis takes about twenty five, nine hundred and twenty years.
34:34
Speaker 1: The Earth moves one degree every seventy two years. People
34:41
Speaker 1: refer to that as conspiratisms or set and thirty degrees
34:47
Speaker 1: every two thousand, one hundred and sixty years. You need
34:53
Speaker 1: to remember those numbers. Twenty five nine, twenty one degree,
35:00
Speaker 1: seventy two years, thirty degrees. You can do the math.
35:06
Speaker 1: Twy one hundred and sixty with thirty degrees stands out
35:12
Speaker 1: because the Sun, as Haru the Christ did illuminated one
35:18
Speaker 1: stays in each of the twelve zodiacal ages for thirty
35:22
Speaker 1: degrees or twy one hundred and sixty years, before it
35:26
Speaker 1: moves to the next age. That is why the numbers
35:30
Speaker 1: thirty and twelve are so important to Western religious theology.
35:38
Speaker 1: It is said that the mythological Jesus as Sun had
35:43
Speaker 1: twelve followers, and at the age of thirty he was
35:48
Speaker 1: baptized by John the Baptist and then went out to
35:52
Speaker 1: preach the gospel. So again, you see something that's very theological,
35:57
Speaker 1: that is really linked to something that is astras That's
36:00
Speaker 1: why it's important to know that science not to negate
36:04
Speaker 1: either portion, because perspective and how eight billion people see
36:09
Speaker 1: this will never be the same. It would be lovely
36:13
Speaker 1: if it were, but it won't be, not in this
36:18
Speaker 1: particular iteration. So I bring this back to what is
36:23
Speaker 1: shared here in terms of looking at the creation concepts
36:27
Speaker 1: through a chemetic Now that and when I say kimm It,
36:31
Speaker 1: we're speaking of the northern portion of the Nile, recognizing
36:35
Speaker 1: that kemm It is the grand daughter or the probably
36:40
Speaker 1: the great grand daughter. Because you need to also look
36:43
Speaker 1: at Nubia, you need to look at Cush, you need
36:48
Speaker 1: to look at the eye Nu. You need to go
36:50
Speaker 1: to the original right, and that's why so many people
36:53
Speaker 1: can go to Keemi, going to the United our Republic,
36:57
Speaker 1: with some resistance, going to Sudan, but follow those beautiful
37:01
Speaker 1: edifices that gives so much history and knowledge to humanity,
37:05
Speaker 1: not just to people in that region living there now,
37:09
Speaker 1: but to all of humanity that have traversed through these
37:12
Speaker 1: spaces and then dispersed in the earth and have established
37:16
Speaker 1: so many aspects of the illumination of the Christ died
37:21
Speaker 1: one and light and joy and peace to the world.
37:25
Speaker 1: And I know this is a lot for some people,
37:27
Speaker 1: but this is what Spirit brought out for today. And
37:33
Speaker 1: I think that it's important that we honor how we
37:37
Speaker 1: speak about this season because for some people, this is
37:42
Speaker 1: the only time they get with their families, this is
37:44
Speaker 1: the only time that they fast, this is the only
37:48
Speaker 1: time that they go into a space of reflection and
37:52
Speaker 1: love and joy, and we want to honor and respect that.
37:56
Speaker 1: And I think that that's really critical.
38:00
Speaker 2: Do that.
38:01
Speaker 1: And yes, we were having a power moment, so you'll
38:04
Speaker 1: hear me tuning and moving right. But I want to
38:08
Speaker 1: highlight a few more things before we leave tonight. And
38:12
Speaker 1: I want to thank the Crew Podcasts for just giving
38:16
Speaker 1: persons like me a platform where we can actually talk
38:20
Speaker 1: about these types of things and share this and if
38:23
Speaker 1: it provides some degree of strengths or if it raises
38:26
Speaker 1: more questions, share the questions, send the emails to ask
38:30
Speaker 1: Speaks ast Speaks at Gmail, or you can place certain
38:37
Speaker 1: things right into our respective chats with the Crew podcast.
38:40
Speaker 1: We will be returning, you know, we have some special broadcasts.
38:44
Speaker 1: Please continue to tune in and listen with the Crew podcast.
38:48
Speaker 1: There'll be more podcasts from our very powerful hosts throughout
38:54
Speaker 1: the next week and change, and then there'll be a
38:57
Speaker 1: moment of reflection in January while everyone is pulling things
39:01
Speaker 1: back together because featuring starting fresh and new in February.
39:07
Speaker 1: And we look forward to you supporting. And when I
39:10
Speaker 1: say support, support, invest, and promote. So if you see
39:18
Speaker 1: hashtag SIP three sixty five, that's what I'm speaking about.
39:22
Speaker 1: Can't speak for what they mean elsewhere, but when you
39:26
Speaker 1: see that in any of Queen Mother Doctor Chinzera's platforms,
39:30
Speaker 1: SIP three sixty five or just hashtag SIP, I'm speaking of, support, invest, promote.
39:37
Speaker 1: One of the things we're very good at is listening
39:40
Speaker 1: to people sometimes, or I should say exercising hearing, because
39:47
Speaker 1: if we were listening, we would not have to be
39:50
Speaker 1: reminded to provide resourceful support, resourceful investments, and resourceful promotion
39:58
Speaker 1: of things that you benefit it from, things that help
40:01
Speaker 1: you think, things that help improve and increase your journey.
40:07
Speaker 1: You're tried into perfection. And that's what I will share
40:11
Speaker 1: with that part for now. One of the other things
40:14
Speaker 1: that's really beautiful around this time of the year and
40:20
Speaker 1: for those persons that may not always remember, is this
40:24
Speaker 1: is also a time where people speak of not just
40:28
Speaker 1: the Christmas holiday and the birth, the reflection of time,
40:34
Speaker 1: honoring the birth of Christ in one and we're not
40:37
Speaker 1: going to do with historiography on if this is actually
40:40
Speaker 1: the day he was born, is it connected to the
40:43
Speaker 1: birth of a different one of light or not. We're
40:46
Speaker 1: going to focus on a large population of the eight
40:51
Speaker 1: billion humans on earth. Stop everything leading into December twenty fifth.
41:00
Speaker 1: If we can just let that move in the direction
41:02
Speaker 1: of peace, love, no war. I'm going to say that joy, peace, love,
41:13
Speaker 1: no war. Wouldn't it be amazing if there were no
41:20
Speaker 1: war activities, deaths, homicides, murder, rape or pillaging during this season? Now,
41:31
Speaker 1: that would be joy to the world the Lord has.
41:36
Speaker 1: That would be fabulous and it would be epic. And
41:41
Speaker 1: I'm sure there's had a time and history, maybe not
41:46
Speaker 1: in our generational period, honestly not, but at some point
41:50
Speaker 1: that there was authentic peace, authentic balance, authentic light, and
42:01
Speaker 1: abundant I gotta be loved. Just think about that and
42:06
Speaker 1: whatever feel like. I think I like that more than usual.
42:13
Speaker 1: And with that being shared, I think the other part
42:17
Speaker 1: that we were going to cover tonight because we're gonna
42:19
Speaker 1: close shortly within our hour. This is a great time
42:25
Speaker 1: to look at what people have brought together around Quanta.
42:32
Speaker 1: You know, many people will say that it's a man
42:36
Speaker 1: made holiday. You know, how does it relate to this season?
42:43
Speaker 1: Some persons have gone as far as to limit their
42:47
Speaker 1: awareness and see Quantita through the lens of just one
42:52
Speaker 1: creator or one entity that is responsible for that. And
42:55
Speaker 1: I always acknowledge those that have contributed to the Kanza
43:01
Speaker 1: observances and for those in the room that may not
43:04
Speaker 1: be as familiar. Kwanza is a celebration of the first fruits,
43:12
Speaker 1: of the first fruits and the harvest. It is grounded
43:15
Speaker 1: in being Guzo tsava the seven principles of Kwanza that
43:21
Speaker 1: are for day one and it's honored from the December
43:24
Speaker 1: twenty sixth through January first, with Day one December twenty sixth,
43:33
Speaker 1: being the principle of Eumoja, which is in Swahili unity.
43:39
Speaker 1: Day two, the twenty seventh of December is Kujijagulia self
43:46
Speaker 1: determination three is the principal. The twenty eighth of December
43:56
Speaker 1: is the principle of Ujima collective work and responsibility. The
44:02
Speaker 1: twenty ninth. Day four is the principle of Ujama cooperative economics,
44:11
Speaker 1: a favorite to many. Day five December thirtieth Nia Purpose
44:27
Speaker 1: Day sixth December thirty first Kuumba Creativity Day seventh, the
44:38
Speaker 1: last day of Kwan's observances January one, Emani Faith. So
44:49
Speaker 1: again you're going from unity to self determination, to collective
44:54
Speaker 1: work and responsibility, to cooperative economics, to purpose, to creativity, to
45:00
Speaker 1: faith in seven days after this same season of moving
45:06
Speaker 1: from the winter solstice, acknowledging light in the awakening persons
45:12
Speaker 1: and many of the parts of the world honoring Christmas,
45:16
Speaker 1: the birth of the Sun, of the Almighty, the illuminated one. Right,
45:23
Speaker 1: they are masses services around the planet. Some persons use
45:29
Speaker 1: it as a time for family, community and humanity. However,
45:36
Speaker 1: you're acknowledging we encourage persons to really look at these
45:40
Speaker 1: things through that lens. Because Kwanza is a celebration of
45:44
Speaker 1: as I said, the first routs. It has its ancestral
45:48
Speaker 1: roots throughout the African world, in the continent, the diaspora,
45:53
Speaker 1: and most persons will hear about the first fruits of
45:57
Speaker 1: these terms in spaces like Tanzania, Mozambique, Uganda and Kenya
46:05
Speaker 1: and Zimbabwe, and it's grounded in a Pan African or
46:09
Speaker 1: global African principle of the first fruits and honoring family,
46:15
Speaker 1: community and humanity.
46:17
Speaker 2: Right.
46:18
Speaker 1: So it's important and I use this particular piece I
46:21
Speaker 1: encourage persons if you don't know anything about Puanta and
46:25
Speaker 1: you are a celebrant during the season of various holidays,
46:28
Speaker 1: there is a wonderful film that was done. Yeah, it's
46:33
Speaker 1: been over a decade by Mka Sante the second it
46:39
Speaker 1: is called the Black Candle. Again. You can go on
46:42
Speaker 1: YouTube and find that particular film, but it's good to
46:46
Speaker 1: have your own clean copy to share. Some persons can
46:49
Speaker 1: know a little bit. Plus some of the narration that's
46:53
Speaker 1: offered by doctor Maya Angelo is pretty lovely, right, but
46:58
Speaker 1: I think it's important to know that. And I quote
47:01
Speaker 1: this is from doctor m Foudischi Hassan Tequesalin Jihudinus of
47:08
Speaker 1: Black Gold Press. He has a publication called Spiritual Warriors
47:13
Speaker 1: or Healers, and it's important for persons to look and
47:18
Speaker 1: see quote. Kwanza was not the name that was used
47:23
Speaker 1: by these societies for their first Fruit celebrations. As such,
47:28
Speaker 1: the first fruit celebrations in ancient keemit was called pert
47:32
Speaker 1: and men, the coming forth of men among the Zulu Umkosi,
47:38
Speaker 1: among the Swazi in Kuala, among the Matavli in Kuala,
47:46
Speaker 1: among the Songa Luma, among the love Tegule, among the Ashanti,
47:52
Speaker 1: Afapie or Oduiro, among the Yuruva, Asia, Oro, Nongin or
47:59
Speaker 1: olun Igs. And again ending quote vis is coming from
48:04
Speaker 1: doctor Infandici's work. Spiritual Warriors or Healers, another publication you
48:09
Speaker 1: can look for to learn at least the five values
48:13
Speaker 1: and practices central to African First Fruits celebrations honored around
48:18
Speaker 1: this time, usually from the autumn season all the way
48:23
Speaker 1: into the opening of winso right, and those practices that
48:30
Speaker 1: form the development of kwanza as it's acknowledged in specifically
48:35
Speaker 1: in the forty eight contiguous, but now in the world
48:38
Speaker 1: or many significant parts of the world where African consciousness
48:43
Speaker 1: and celebratory ceremonies are honored, and that is these five
48:49
Speaker 1: values and principles of the African First fruits harvesting, reverence, commemory,
49:02
Speaker 1: recommitment and celebration. I'm Gonna save those again. Harvesting, reverence, commemoration, recommitment,
49:14
Speaker 1: and celebration. I encourage persons to look at some of
49:19
Speaker 1: those things. I will definitely be posting some older links
49:23
Speaker 1: in our other platforms because it's important for persons to
49:27
Speaker 1: just be comfortable to have these types of conversations. I
49:31
Speaker 1: know I've covered a lot of different areas tonight, and
49:34
Speaker 1: it wasn't as if it was conversational. But I'm rerely
49:38
Speaker 1: having a conversation with each and everyone that's tuned in listening,
49:43
Speaker 1: taking a moment, whether you are desirous to hear or not.
49:49
Speaker 1: And I'm really giving thanks for having the opportunity to
49:55
Speaker 1: share little snippets of words soundpower that provide grace and
50:02
Speaker 1: joy and peace and mercy. I am always grateful when
50:08
Speaker 1: I see that our families are willing to gather and
50:18
Speaker 1: use this as a time of joy, use this as
50:22
Speaker 1: a time of peace, and use this as a time
50:27
Speaker 1: of harmony. And like I always tell persons in general,
50:34
Speaker 1: may you be blessed abundantly with joy, prosperity. What we
50:43
Speaker 1: say afur join abundant life, strength, health, wellness, prosperity for
50:50
Speaker 1: eternity and for any of the errors, any of the
50:57
Speaker 1: missteps that I or others in our tribe have done,
51:03
Speaker 1: we ask for recognition and understanding. And how do we
51:09
Speaker 1: say we forgive those that trespast against us as we forget? Yes,
51:14
Speaker 1: that one that people say that we don't always live
51:18
Speaker 1: by and do so we definitely honor that during this
51:23
Speaker 1: time of joy, peace, prosperity, and abundant a God they love.
51:31
Speaker 1: May your families be blessed in abundance. And I say
51:35
Speaker 1: our families, may me correct myself, May our families be
51:39
Speaker 1: blessed in abundance. There are so many wonderful activities happening.
51:45
Speaker 1: There's quansa celebrations literally happening all around the world. People
51:50
Speaker 1: are using its time to honor whether it's Christmas, Festival
51:55
Speaker 1: of Lights, some people are honoring various fasting you know,
52:00
Speaker 1: veris fasting and ceremonies that we don't even always have
52:05
Speaker 1: the proper names for. And I really encourage our sisters
52:11
Speaker 1: and brothers in earshot to authentically and lovingly most lovingly
52:22
Speaker 1: speak truth is power and give thanks for all of
52:27
Speaker 1: the grace that we've been given this time and for
52:30
Speaker 1: all of us that have had ancestral transitions impacting our families.
52:38
Speaker 1: You know, like maybe keep our heart as light as feather,
52:41
Speaker 1: you know this has been a challenging time for many
52:44
