Peaceful, Purposeful, and Powerful 
innerG to ALL

I would like to re-introduce my spirit self to some and/or re-present my spirit self to others... this publication is to set a tone to tune us (United Spirits) UP for the 

week that too shall pass... 

Oni Abeni, graced and granted; approved and appropriate for the African centered mind but not limited to the African centered...

Oni Abeni, in a ancient tone, means born in a sacred abode; WE asked for her, and behold, WE got her) Where is the SACRED ABODE? The mind and Who is WE? the Ancestors and their Descendants. Sahcreed (sacred) relates to a protection system, doctrine, or principles for the Ra (soul) and Ka (spirit)...

This hour is an hour of power that brings peace for our purpose... 

This is for ALL to redirect and guide themselves according to their genetics and perfecting them as well... 

Let's begin by setting our tone... 

If you do not already have an altar with the 4 elements or more then begin by collecting an earth, fire, or air, and water element as well as a mineral element... to include all elements within... gather a white candle and/or a candle of your choice depending on what you so desire of the yourself and others this week...

resin or incenses are optional but strongly recommended to prepare the environment for ritual and call forth angels or spirirts to assist in creating sacred space. Symbolically and Biblically, the smoke that rises as the resin burns helps carry prayers and offerings to Heaven.

Our transitioned ones or ancestors favor sweet and earthly scents such as jasmine and patchouli; palo santo and lavender; frankincense and myrrh. However,  if you know the scents that certain ones in your line of ages (lineage) enjoyed such as an ancestors that enjoyed preparing pies or cakes or other choice meals there are now scents that are made (homemade or store bought) that will stir up those innergies or beings as well. Light each candle or charcoal with resin in LOVE... sacred and pure intentions quietly with yourself. Close your eyes and as you begin to visualize your intentions for the week confirm and affirm those intentions with a closing thought of Ase', let it be, best it be, or so it is, Asante Sana, Medasi, whomp there it is, etc. 

A peace of humor from a recently made ancestor of mine that rest in love

We possess the power and purpose to bring out the worst and/or best of anyone of our line of ages (lineage) depending on the matter; we can take the matter of our lineage in our own hands and bring forth our needs or desires. As we bring ourselves back to our visualizations... let's take a moment of silence to FOCUS on their fruition...As we move forward... I would like each of you to create a circular grid around yourselves for untiy and protection... if you do not have gemstones, crystals, or other minerals/nature of this sort... visualize... rose quartz (love and unity), selenite (spiritual), tourmaline (black stone for protection), clear quartz (amplifying energy) or a citrine (focus) place them in an order... one of each then repeat that order until you reach the closing of the circle or one stone surrounding you... as we are unified and protected in the peace, purpose and power of the Most Highest spiritual energy... 

Note to SELF:

For those who are present and have conflict of interest with the using of crystals or scents... 

these spiritual energies were used in biblical times and before... 

be not afraid to embrace such power of your G.O.D. (gifts of Divinity) 

I will recite a word from Let Spirit Reign: A Spiritual Affirmation Guide inspired by the divine and written in the pure thought of 

my spirit self Oni Abeni... 

This has been a small peace of the peaceful, purposeful, and powerful innerg that will be shared every other Sunday until the Spirit calls for another tune... 

stay UP and out of this world! 

May you all be divinely inspired by the peace and power of the Most Highest purpose within. Be motivated and stay motivated in your word to thyself. For YOU are your most reliable and closest source of this potential innerG (energy)

~Oni Abeni

Peace, Purpose and Power

Rise and Reign

Be open and willing to release yourself from yourself. Often times we hold ourselves back by holding on to old parts of ourselves that need to be released or made new and whole again. We hold on to the pain, the worry, the people, the places, and the things of the past or the present that no lonher has our best potential and purpose in mind. There is a spiritual awakening that takes place when we experience these things and then show and prove how to release them as they come. On this earthly realm, it is healing to the spirit and soul not to remain stagnant and heavy with physical, mental or emotional experiences. 

"In the Dagara tradition, healing comes in many different forms. There is the spiritual plane; there is the mind; there is your soul. There is the seen world and there is the unseen world." ~Sobonfu Some'

Each experience reveals a innerG(od) essence that also reveals your strength, endurance and weaknesses 
to repair not to compare. 
Let your old self go and catch up with your new being who seeks new experiences with understanding and acceptance. 

To enhance this thought or message from SPIRIT... anoint your experience with an Elestial Quartz, Myrrh essential oil in a diffuser, on your temple, oil burner, and more ways as you reprogram and remind your mind with the following affirmation:

'I am a whole being reflecting my past and creating my future as I embrace my present'

Excerpt from Let Spirit Reign: An Spiritual Affirmation Guide divinely inspired and written by Oni Abeni

"In my tradition ancestors are a part of everyday life, you never exclude them, because whatever is happening in your life you know they have a part in it.

Among our rituals are individual ones that you must do in order to keep your spirit attuned or cleansed. Then there are spontaneous rituals, for when something strange happens, especially in a situation you never faced before. 

You start to realize that major challenges that you have gone through in your life are initiation forms. Those initiation forms are there to help you follow the next course in life, and if you do not follow those courses something in you dies. Yet the purpose of initiation is to get those things to die so you can get the new skin on, just like a lizard. As you grow up, you shed those skins and take on something new. You don’t want to put the old skin back because it wouldn’t fit. 

There is also a maintenance ritual, which is like getting an oil change for your car. If you don’t do those maintenance rituals you can’t have a successful radical ritual because there are too many fragmentations."

Spiritual SELF CARE, WORTH and VALUE Sundays

RICH SPIRIT

The HEART and MIND had one moor in mine RICH SPIRIT

In Love and Honor of my ancestors who came from GoMillions... I found a RICH SPIRIT! 

The name may denote monies, funds, or cash but a DIVINE... RICH SPIRIT does not involve these matters...

It involves a currency (a flow) of LOVE, HONOR, and LOYALTY. 

It involves numbers but of QUALITY and QUANTITY... 

It involves a wealth of land, crops, and shares shared within its LINEage.

Despite, the fact of the PLANtation, in the name and HISstory... there was a wealth of people who traveled many RHODES (roads) to get to freedom and land (space and opportunity) to raise a LINEage of Teachers, Preachers and Healers.

Charlotte Rhodes

Healing ROOTS, GROUNDS and FOUNDATION of Seaton Dump where the Rhodes (roads) sowed and reaped a wealth of healthy seeds (ancestors and descendants)

Each and EVERY one possesses a RICH SPIRIT, however, we some times forget, doubt or fear the wealth our 'ancestral' spirits hold. 

As stated previously, this publication came to mine mind this GRAND RISING because I REMEMBER and so shall you...

The Leader awards and rewards a Leader! (February 2020)
The Key to a Rich Spirit is remembering who you came from!

RICH SPIRIT

The wealth our SPIRITS hold shall be carried with US (United Spirits) all... ALWAYS... in ALL WAYS...ALL THE TIME as stated in the prior publication... Ancestral Spirit!

As this month comes to an end and this B.L.O.G. comes to a moment of silence for other journeys... our RICH SPIRITS must continue to reign withIN and OUT. 

We shall not be moved, unless the movement is in LOVE and HONOR of our LINEage, Legacy or HERtiage... If we see cloudy days of doubt and fear... Lest we Forget the strength, unity, resilience, power and purpose we possess. 

We are destine to be GRAND, for our GRANDMothers, GRANDFathers, GREAT GRANDS and moor... made us (United Spirits) in that image and likeness as our G.O.D. (Gifts of Divinity) 

We may not see our RICH SPIRIT but those who are 'in spirit', rooted and grounded in SPIRITUAL matter (flesh) sees ALL in its most wealthest state; recognizes and respects such LINEages of GRANDEUR... 

Ancestral Spirit

Ancestral Greetings

As the spirit guides guide US (United Spirits) through such a HISTORIC, LOVING and MEMORABLE moment in TIME and SPIRIT it is PEACEFUL in my 'spirit' self to realize the disconnection in such a POWERFUL connection.

This publication is to conclude and continue a legacy of ANCESTRAL SPIRIT GUIDANCE in the SPIRIT 

of US (United Spirits) all....

This last but everlasting publication is evidence of an existence and experience of and in the ANCESTRAL SPIRIT... it is not to stir up the same anger and hatred of the past but the strength and love of the people who endured the past, boldly and beautifully made it to the present and seek to perfect the future.

However, in mine eye, it is arrogant and selfish to give a people a month of appreciation and celebration while appreciating and celebrating people who oppressed and depressed a people through manipulation, annihilation, and humiliation.

As I remind mine eye of the holy days of this month due to its observance of HISTORY (holidays to some) I find it extremely disconnecting but powerfully connected in a such a way that unites those of a HIGHER Spiritual PURPOSE, POWER, and PEACE...

Look at it... (in the observance and voice of the Honorable Khalid Muhummad) this month observes the presence of Africans in America, a day seemingly to appreciate those you LOVE, and President's day (in observance of G. Washington's Birthday).

Now, the Africans in America (not the Natives or People of dominant Melanin traits that were already occupying this land) are 'provided' time and space to remember, appreciate and celebrate HIS-STORY  in the Americas or their seemingly and outwardly progress in the Americas...

APPRECIATE

CELEBRATE

Then, the antics of Romans and earlier periods are recognized for their festive times in the guise of Valentine's Day.

However, according to the researchers of NPR, the origins of this festival of candy and cupids are actually dark, bloody and a bit muddled. Though no one has pinpointed the exact origin of the holiday, one good place to start is ancient Rome, where men hit on women by, well, hitting them. 

From Feb. 13 to 15, the Romans celebrated the feast of Lupercalia. The men sacrificed a goat and a dog, then whipped women with the hides of the animals they had just slain. The Roman romantics "were drunk. They were naked," says Noel Lenski, a historian at the University of Colorado at Boulder. Young women would actually line up for the men to hit them, Lenski says. They believed this would make them fertile. The brutal fete included a matchmaking lottery, in which young men drew the names of women from a jar. The couple would then be coupled up for the duration of the festival or longer, if the match was right. 

The ancient Romans may also be responsible for the name of our modern day of love. Emperor Claudius II executed two men (both named Valentine) on Feb. 14 of different years in the 3rd century A.D. Their martyrdom was honored by the Catholic Church with the celebration of St. Valentine's Day. 

Later, Pope Gelasius I muddled things in the 5th century by combining St. Valentine's Day with Lupercalia to expel the pagan rituals. But the festival was more of a theatrical interpretation of what it had once been. Lenski adds, "It was a little more of a drunken revel, but the Christians put clothes back on it. That didn't stop it from being a day of fertility and love." Around the same time, the Normans celebrated Galatin's Day. Galatin meant "lover of women." That was likely confused with St. Valentine's Day at some point, in part because they sound alike. As the years went on, the holiday grew sweeter. 

Chaucer and Shakespeare romanticized it in their work, and it gained popularity throughout Britain and the rest of Europe. Handmade paper cards became the tokens-du-jour in the Middle Ages. 

Eventually, the tradition made its way to the New World. The industrial revolution ushered in factory-made cards in the 19th century. And in 1913, Hallmark Cards of Kansas City, Missouri, began mass producing valentines. 

February has not been the same since.

Today, the holiday is big business: According to market research firm IBIS World, Valentine's Day sales reached $17.6 billion last year; this year's sales are expected to total $18.6 billion. 

But that commercialization has spoiled the day for many. 

Helen Fisher, a sociologist at Rutgers University, says we have only ourselves to blame. "This isn't a command performance," she says. "If people didn't want to buy Hallmark cards, they would not be bought, and Hallmark would go out of business. And so the celebration of Valentine's Day goes on, in varied ways. Many will break the bank buying jewelry and flowers for their beloveds. Others will celebrate in a SAD (that's Single Awareness Day) way, dining alone and binging on self-gifted chocolates. A few may even be spending this day the same way the early Romans did. 

But let's not go there.

Go WITHIN...

APPRECIATE

AND

CELEBRATE

Last, the political officials thought in the shortest month where they chose to give Africans in America pride (and prejudice) and a day that clouds the month with seemingly and outwardly love, that another day of recognition outside of the realms of the full month observance of Africans in America was in their right (and it was) but in all fairness and justice it was not right to those who recognize the Ancestral Spirit of Africans EVERYWHERE... EVERY DAY!

To move forward, in this apparent disconnection there is a POWERFUL connection that shall not stir up anger and hatred but STRENGTH and LOVE if you are in honor and order of a HIGHER SPIRITUAL PURPOSE, POWER and PEACE.

Subconsciously, this is effecting our spirit, however, consciously we have the SPIRIT... RIGHT, POWER and ABILITY to determine how we shall protect, honor, and observe the cause of the calls of our spirit during such a sensitive but strengthen observance. 

We shall reprogram our minds to appreciate and celebrate ALL that we are in ALL WAYS, ALWAYS and ALL THE TIME... 

We shall consciously create LOVE and become the HEAD (President) of our HOUSE (mind, body, soul, and spirit), our existence and experience in the Americas as Ancestral Spirits on an EARTHLY realm or plane(t).

APPRECIATE and CELEBRATE yOUR ANCESTRAL SPIRIT in ALL WAYS... ALWAYS!

Spaced OUT Spirit

As spiritual beings we are aware that we are literally in space and with this understanding we must admit that what happens in space effects us as earthly beings, NATURALLY!

Since, Earth is a planet that rotates in space. Again, it is only natural that what happens or occur in space effects us (United Spirits) as well. However, it does not effects us (United Spirits) the same. There is energy in motion, EMOTIONS, that are effected by space and time as well. We as spiritual beings shall be fully aware of how this changes our states of being. 

With all due respect, whichever or whatever church, mosque, temple, synagogue, or the likes you may attend neither can neglect the obvious that we are in some form if not all effected by space and time. 

Consequently, these thoughts led to the spirit of this day, this moment, this time in space.

Spaced            OUT                   Spirit

To some, this may be similar to the publication, 'A Spiritual Omnipresence' in some ways and different in other ways. Hopefully, all of US (United Spirits) including my 'spirit' self will see the relation and reflections in it all as it unfolds before my eyes and through my spirit from a divine place within. 

A Spaced OUT Spirit honors an expanded mind that seeks to express itself in time through Spirit. 

A Spaced OUT Spirit understands the energy surrounding its journey

We recently had a new moon in Aquarius. The new moon in Aquarius was a time for you to protect your 'spirit' self and know the difference between those who seek to drain your energy and those who seek to maintain your innerG(od) being. 

This space in time also reminded my 'spirit' self of the scripture Luke 22, where the plot against Jesus is given and in the 10 verse it refers to a man bearing a pitcher of water and to follow him into the house where he entereth in. Then, I remembered the series of zeitgeist documentaries where one of the researchers stated that this scripture was referring to the age of Aquarius, which is the house that follows the Pisces (fish), an astrological sign and symbol that has been known to represent Jesus, or those who follow Christianity and/or refer to themselves as Christians. 

Soon after, I began to spread my spirit and become spaced OUT piecing together what this revelation meant and how it relates or effects US (United Spirits) THEN and NOW.

Zeitgeist is the defining spirit or mood of a particular period of history as shown by the ideas and beliefs of the time, which is derives from the German language. Zeit meaning time and Geist meaning spirit... The documentary was MAINTAINING to some and DRAINING to others who refer to themselves as Christians... You needed to know the difference and how it effects your 'spirit' self.

Luke 22, the plot against Jesus and the last Supper was the beginning of the end of the age of Pisces or Christ in some form and the initial signs of betrayal and deceit... 
This incident could have been DRAINING in some ways and MAINTAINING in other ways to those who like Jesus knew what was happening or occurring and starting preparing himself and those around him.

A Spaced OUT Spirit knows when things are starting to close in on it. A Spaced OUT Spirit knows when it is time to expand its energy and get in motion (movement) as well.

The Zeitgeist documentary brought about a change in the minds of some as things started to close in on the beliefs that were many people's reality for so long. 

With all due respect, this is not to state those beliefs are wrong or right. This is only to voice the essence or energy of a Spaced OUT Spirit, which is a statement marked here to relate to the Spirit of those who are boundless and not limited by coincidences but fully aware of the connection we all have to each other in space and time that are miscalled coincidences.

As we return to the Zeitgeist documentaries and Luke, chapter 22, we see that THEN, at this point in the story a change was coming but Jesus, a man that represented supreme man kind was fully aware of the time and was preparing his followers for what was to come or be. 
NOW, Zeitgeist documentary did the same in a whole another form, where those who represented supreme thought and action were made to prepare themselves and others for the expansion of their minds and consequently their actions.

A Spaced OUT Spirit is aware of its surroundings and findings (truth or lies) but not afraid of its surroundings and findings (truth or lies)

 A Spaced OUT Spirit gives the mind, body and soul a place to be free from draining energy to maintain the innerG(od) needed to know the difference in spirits.

When you find yourself in need of a mental break... Space OUT!

When you find yourself stressed... Space OUT!

When you find yourself in betrayal or deceit... Space OUT!

When you find yourself in denial... Space OUT!

When you seem lost and can't find your inner peace... Space OUT!

How do you Space OUT?

Close your eyes and realize how much space is truly around you and how much you truly occupy in that space and how that effects you...

Some may be humble with the thought and some may be in their ego with the thought.

Deep breathing.... will humble the ego

Think about how big this universe is and if you need to think smaller to humble your 'spirit' self, think how many continents we have and how much space they occupy and where you are in relation to that space...

SPACE OUT...SPIRIT!
