#Ancient Egyptians Were Blacks – Kemet History

[reasoningdaily]

Ancient Black Egyptians? They were African? Were they? This was a topic that was raised and discussed. It is true that other studies have been carried out which suggest the opposite. But the answer is there if you look closely at the enormous array.

Here are the facts that prove ancient Egyptians were Black and Africans.

Ancient Egyptians referred to their homeland as Kmt (conventionally pronounced as Kemet). According to Diop, the Egyptians referred to themselves as “Black” people or kmt, and km was the etymological root of other words, such as Kam or Ham, which refer to Black people.

Senegalese scholar Dr. Cheikh Anta Diop (1923-1986)’s role in life was to challenge Eurocentric and Arab-centric perceptions of pre-colonial African society. He set out to prove definitively that Egypt’s ancient civilization had its origins in Black Africa. At the Museum of Man in Paris, he performed melanin checks on Egyptian mummies and concluded that all the ancient Egyptians were among the Black races.

Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamen and family analysis by DNATribes recently found that sub-Saharan Africans, especially those from Southern Africa and the Great Lakes region, are the closest living relatives of the mummies, Face2Face Africa documented.

Scouring the past of Egypt and ancient Egyptians, some ancient Greek historians said that the skin of ancient Egyptians was “melanchroes,” that is, black or dark-skinned. The ancient Egyptians were also identified by early Latin eyewitnesses as “black-skinned.”

Scholars Agree Some of the world’s most esteemed scholars have speculated that Egyptians were Black Africans. Some modern researchers, like W. E. B. Du Bois accepted the theory that Ancient Egyptian society was mostly black Face2Face Africa documented.

In addition to Dr. Diop’s research, in its geographic DNA study, National Geographic recorded that 68 percent of present-day Egyptians are ethnically North African, with foreign invasions having little influence on the genetics of most modern Egyptians.

Some of the most famous ancient Egyptians have been identified as black. For example, Queen Ahmose-Nefertari is most often identified as a woman of color. “According to Sigrid Hodel-Hoenes, the author of “Life and Death in Ancient Egypt,” the Queen’s black skin color is derived from her role, as black is the color of both the fertile earth and the netherworld and death.”

“The term is a collective noun which thus described the whole people of Pharaonic Egypt as a Black person,” according to Diop.

Reading Bones Most of the skeletons and skulls of ancient Egyptians had characteristics similar to those of modern Black Nubians and other people of the Upper Nile and East Africa, showing they were Black and African, according to study by scientist Diop.

The Blood Group Tell Us Also, blood type is evidence, according to Diop. He discovered that even after hundreds of years of intermixing with foreign invaders, the blood type of modern Egyptians is the same group B as West Africa populations on the Atlantic seaboard and not the white race’s A2 characteristic prior to any crossbreeding,’  The Atlanta Star reported.

Mother Tongue Evidence  Also, blood group is evidence, according to Diop. He discovered that even after centuries of intermarrying with foreign invaders, the blood type of modern Egyptians is the same group B as West Africa tribes on the Atlantic seaboard and not the white race’s A2 characteristic prior to any crossbreeding.

“The Atlanta Star reported that Diop clearly indicates that ancient Egyptian, modern Egyptian Coptic, and Wolof are related, with the latter two having their origins in the former.

Diop wrote in the “General History of Africa”: “The relationship between ancient Egyptian and African languages is not a fictional fact, but a demonstrable fact that it is impossible to put aside for scholarship.”

[kemetic-dreams]

The artifacts, including hundreds of fragments of pottery, jewelry, stone vessels, and ceremonial objects such as incense burners, were initially recovered from the Qustul cemetery by Keith C. Seele, a professor at the University of Chicago. The cemetery, which contained 33 tombs that were heavily plundered in ancient times, was on the Nile near the modern boundary between Egypt and the Sudan.

The significance of the artifacts, which had been in storage at the university's Oriental Institute, was not fully appreciated until last year, when Brace Williams, a research associate, began to study them.

“Keith Seele had suspected the tombs were special, perhaps even royal,” Dr. Williams said in an interview. “It was obvious from the quantity and quality of the painted pottery and the jewelry that we were dealing with wealthy people. But it was the picture on a stone incense burner that indicated we really had the tomb of a king.”

On the incense burner, which was broken and had to be pieced together, was a depiction of a palace facade, a crowned king sitting on a throne in a boat, a royal standard before the king and, hovering above the king, the falcon god Horus. Most of the images are ones commonly associated with kingship in later Egyptian traditions.

Evidence of the oldest recognizable monarctiy in human history, preceding the rise of the earliest Egyptian kings by several generations, has been discovered in artifacts from ancient Nubia in Africa.

Until now it had been assumed that at that time the ancient Nubian culture, which existed in what is now northern Sudan and southern Egypt, had not advanced beyond a collection of scattered tribal clans and chiefdoms.

The existence of rule by kings indicates a more advanced form of political organization in which many chiefdoms are united under a more powerful and wealthier ruler.

A Lesson on Sympathetic Magic

{My post is cross-posted from The Cobalt Athenaeum aka my original post. You can find the server at the bottom of my pinned post.}

Always take my words with a grain of salt and do your own cross-referencing and research on a subject. Never take my words at face value. Self-study is important.

What is Sympathetic Magic?

“Sympathetic magic, also known as imitative magic, is a type of magic based on imitation or correspondence." - Wikipedia

Another example is

“Sympathetic magic is a magical modality that involves symbolically imitating the desired outcome. It may involve acting on a physical representation of a target or creating a physical representation of the outcome or recreating the desired outcome through motion and art. In this way, the practitioner might cause change at a distance in time or space.” - magickalspot.com

Sympathetic Magic Broken Down

Sympathetic Magic might sound difficult but I promise it is not. Let’s have a bit of a history lesson. Sir James George Frasier first outlined the underlying principles of sympathetic magic in his (1890-1915) book The Golden Bough (Ch 3). He explained that it was based on two basic principles which we now call the Law of Similarity and the Law of Contagion or Contact. There was also a book written by Richard Andree called Sympathy-Enchantment which was written in 1882. The idea of some form of sympathetic magic has existed since prehistory.

There has been talk of Ancient Egyptians using sympathetic magic within their rituals, from use of charms and amulets. We can see examples of sympathetic magic in Kemetic practices, some history is never forgotten.

It goes like this:

Principle - Explanation: Examples

Law of Similarity - “Like produces like”: Uses of a poppet to create a direct link to a target for healing, baneful work and other means

Law of Contagion - Objects or beings/things in contact retain a connection: Using a taglock (hair, nails, body fluids) in a spell to influence the target or as a representation of yourself

Law of Correspondence - Symbolic associations create connections: using for example a pink candle for self-love or a black candle for protection or baneful work. This would follow colour magic for theory

Law of Association - Linking two entities establishes a connection: Placing a photo of an ancestor on an ancestor altar or using a photo as a Taglock for a spell

Sympathetic Magic is the correspondence itself within witchcraft practice. It’s the main driving point behind a spell that uses materials. Without mastering sympathetic magic, your spells may not work as intended and may not have the power behind them that you so wish. Even materials in magic sometimes need a taglock of sorts for a spell to be as effective.

Law of Similarity

The Law of Similarity states that things that resemble each other have a connection on a metaphysical level. Examples include a poppet being used to represent an individual, either yourself or someone else. Its similarity to the target. This is what would drive the spellwork, as it would influence the target as intended. This is the basics of the law, the very base of representations in spellwork.

The Law of Contagion or Contact

The Law of Contagion states that things that were once in contact remain connected after separation and that whatever affects one can still affect the other, and whatever energy was in the original remains in the removed. We see this in taglocks, taglocks that were once connected to a being, living or dead. This can be physical taglocks (hair, nails, body fluids) or even a business card this person once possessed or an item of clothing. Alternatively, if you were out of options a name and birthday or a photograph would work fine. In a pinch, you work with what you have.

Types of Sympathetic Magic

Similarity

That of which resembles something that represents or substitutes an object or thing to do with the working. We can look at alchemy in this sense, we would alchemize an ingredient as a substitute. Pomegranates have been seen as a substitute for blood as t’s connected with life/death, vitality and mortality/immortality. It shows this symbolism through myths throughout different cultures and some folklore (ex. vampires). You can thank our Maven Satan for this fun fact so I can look into it further.

Contact

That of which something came in contact with something that can represent an object, thing or person. Examples include taglocks (hair, nails bodily fluids) or even moon/sun water as its rays have “touched” the water, blessing it a certain way. It can be UPG, SPG or VPG.

Imitation

While being close to similarity, it's not quite the same. It involves the act of creating an imitation object. Things like Poppets are great examples of alchemizing an ingredient for a working. The important thing is that it looks like the thing/person you are creating, however, a close imitation works just as fine (alchemy). Correspondence Correspondences are essentially the idea that something can influence another thing because of its relationship or resemblances to said thing. Let's say for example a correspondence to a deity, Roses are seen as a correspondence to the goddess Aphrodite or Keys for Hekate. You can also have something like Peppermint that represents the planet Mercury, as it rules under such. Correspondences can look like colours, plants, minerals and objects. As long as it represents that thing you are working with, it is a correspondence.

Examples of Sympathetic Magic

Practice - Purpose: Example

Poppet Magic - Healing, cursing, influencing, or representing a person: Constructing a doll-like figure and using it as a focus point to a ritual

Mirror Magic - Reflection, divination, or reversing energy: Using mirrors to channel intentions, amplify energy, reflect energy or for scrying

Material Correspondences - Utilizing plants, minerals and colours for their symbolic associations: Selecting specific herbs or flowers from research for their correspondence to include in a spell or working

Charm or Talisman Creation - Protection, luck, or manifestation: Crafting a personal charm or talisman with an intended purpose like protection or invisibility

What About Killing Fields?

Michael Jackson literally screamed the title to this blog post in, Earth Song.

Please, go watch the video if youve never seen it before:

Why was Michael screaming the lyrics, literally screaming them, about killing fields trying to get through to us?

Trying to get through to our empathy?

Trying to make us give a fucking damn?

50k Palestinian civilians have been murdered in the genocide caused by Israel, funded by and weapons provided by the US & Boeing, since last October.

There is a pending famine caused purposely by the genocide that if it is not stopped by a PERMANENT ceasefire agreement will result in millions of deaths, including children.

They could unblock the bridge from Egypt to Rafah today.

They dont want to.

You do know who they is.

They could deliver emergency flotillas to feed all of the starving Palestinians today.

Are you claiming that the US has 4.3 billion dollars a year to fund Israels genocide but doesnt have money to deliver food to a few million starving Palestinians at risk of being murdered by a forced famine?

So, why dont they?

Instead, we have flour massacres (look it up), where starving Palestinians promised aid are literally gunned down by the IDF terrorists for attempting to obtain food that was promised to them.

It has happened again and again.

Palestinian starving civilians promised food and then murdered and gunned down in cold blood the moment they try to obtain literally life-saving food.

Netanyahu is purposely starving them and not allowing food and aid in.

Netanyahu is literally blocking the flotilla, the bridge from Egypt into Palestine and the emergency aid trucks all filled with food just sitting as millions of Palestinians, including children, are forced to literally eat cattle feed to survive.

Its not like dog food.

It is absolutely inedible for humans yet there are videos on social media of children choking down cattle feed.

What about killing fields?

But all Americans care about at a mass level are their 4th of July plans.

Why the fuck would you ever want to “celebrate” the “birth” of a nation that is white supremacist, colonialist, racist, misogynist, fascistic, built off of police brutality, slavery of Africans with no restitution or reparations free slave labor with no wages ever paid to anyone that built this nation, Christofascist, zionist, Greco-Roman, Eurocentric, ancient Egypt denying, Kemet denying, melanin denying, appropriating from Black people our music that we created - country (look it up), jazz, blues, rhythm & blues, rock (not Elvis - look it up), ofcourse hip hop & rap, reggae, soca, etc — our culture, our cornrows, our braids, our dreads, our hair, our Kanekalon, our Senegalese twists everything just becomes a fashion statement for the Kardashians — misappropriation of our culture and constantly stealing from us then lying about it and erasing us from the history — Disney stole designs from a black creator designer & cartoonist who was never credited (look it up) — why do you think there are so many examples of this?

Africa — Kemet which is ancient Egypt — is the birthplace of humanity.

Ancient Egyptians developed roads, highways, infrastructure, irrigation, aqueduct systems, modern medicine (look it up), modern surgery techniques, modern embalming techniques, astrology, math, art, history, astronomy, philosophy all before the Greeks & Romans & “Enlightenment” yet look who gets credited for inventing these things.

Jesus is a bastardized Horus from Kemet from ancient Egypt, it is a 1:1 bastardization and shit retelling, everything from dying and rising again the third day.

Look it up.

They removed all the wisdom, esotericism, knowledge of the self, mysticism, magick and replaced it with fear, dogma, control, a fake white guy with a beard, a Santa Claus in the skies sitting on a fake ass throne judging you for hooking up on Tinder last Saturday.

Yet you question nothing.

They say they dont know how the pyramids were built and that “even today” we do not have the technology the ancient Egyptians had and that the stones of the pyramid were built so close together that you cannot even slide a debit card through them.

Yet you question nothing.

You dont question why the capstone is missing on top of the pyramid or why it is on the back of the US $1 bill, the default global currency, with an eye above it.

Still you question nothing.

Look up the Eye of Ra.

Go read the lyrics of Earth Song while listening to MJ then come back:

79% of plastic that has ever been made still sits in landfills or the natural environment.

It takes 400 years for plastic to break down in a landfill.

Did you process that?

Every sanitary pad, every pantyliner, every plastic tampon applicator, every plastic utensil, every Red Solo cup, every Dixie cup, every plastic plate, every plastic water bottle, every Ziploc bag, every plastic cap to your toothpaste tube, every plastic potato chip bag, every plastic wrapper, every plastic medicine bottle, every single plastic K-cup for your daily morning coffee.

Every time you use a washing machine to wash your laundry, it causes microplastics that are released and end up in oceans.

Single use plastic is absolutely ubiquitous.

There have been 9.1 billion tons of plastic produced since throwaway culture was introduced in the 1950s and disposable plastic was introduced for the first time.

Plastic is actually extremely durable, they just didnt want it to be.

You do know who they is.

Why the 50s?

Because WWII had just ended and they needed something to mass produce now that they no longer needed to mass produce for the war.

So, single use plastic was introduced and marketed to the masses as convenient, time saving, modern and more hygienic.

Just how retirement was marketed as “golden years” — still pathetically parroted today — by a marketer.

Look it up. Also in the 1950s.

Prior to this marketing campaign, retirement was dreaded as a period of decline in health.

The marketing campaign shifted this to the golden years of your life.

It was a marketing campaign built to push retirement living and communities and it not only worked but the pathetic idea of working your entire life to “finally be able to do what you want for ten years max” is somehow still around today.

Brainwashing, grooming, conditioning, indoctrination centers.

Seductive marketing, hypnotic messaging, brainwashing techniques in advertising.

Psyops.

Same with homeownership being the “American Dream”.

Look it up.

It was started as a marketing campaign at the beginning of the 1900s by a president of a real estate company.

The marketing campaign proved so successful that starting with FDR’s New Deal, the United States government started pushing and promoting home ownership as quintessential to the American Dream.

Today, 94% of Americans believe that owning a home is a quintessential part of the American dream.

Brainwashed. Indoctrinated. Conditioned. Groomed.

Its actually taking on hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt, signing your life away for 20 to 30 years when you have no control over the housing market or economy.

Have you all already forgotten about Lehman Brothers, subprime mortgages and the housing collapse PURPOSELY CAUSED in 2008 by lenders providing loans to borrowers whom they knew would be unable to pay the loans back thus causing a housing market collapse and allowing the same lenders to buy back these subprime loans and pocket billions while the housing market and economy crashed and millions lost their homes and jobs?

Were you alive in 2008?

If not, look it up.

So, its a losing proposition, owning a home.

A HELOC is taking on more debt even if you borrow against the equity in your home in the form of a loan, you will have to pay the loan back with interest.

No thanks.

Even if you are clever and invest in upgrading your home, rent it out, make money off of it as a rental property or invest in it and flip it and profit it off of it or if you pay the loan off over 20 or 30 years, do upgrades to the home, then sell it for a significant profit, so what?

How the fuck is that a “dream”?

You just made money, who the fuck cares?

That doesnt explain the promotion of home ownership as a quintessential part of the American dream.

WHAT American dream???????

Meritocracy???????????

Most of the wealth in America is owned by white people as they concentrate the wealth then pass it on to their future generations and bloodline through estate planning and wills that transfers real estate and assets from wealthy parents to their children.

Wash rinse repeat.

How the fuck is that a meritocracy?????

Blacks are 13% of the population yet we make up over 80% of the prison population.

Meritocracy???????????

Poverty in America is overwhelmingly endured by Black and brown minorities.

Most of the youth in foster care are Black and brown.

Foster care youth end up houseless and imprisoned at an enormously higher rate.

What leads to being placed in foster care other than racist policies and being Black and brown?

Substance use by parents and parents becoming houseless.

What overwhelmingly causes substance use and houselessness?

Poverty.

Yet we still have never addressed poverty in America.

How hard would it be to take the Earned Income Tax Credit that right now goes to parents with children that own a home, take that money and repurpose it to a Universal Basic Income (UBI) that provides each American adult 18 and over with a $1k a month?

They have done studies that have shown that even $500 a month — and if we have $4 billion to send to Israel every year to kill innocent Palestinian civilians dont tell me we dont have $500 a month for every adult in the US — significantly improved the lives of families in poverty — they stopped skipping meals, they stopped undereating, starving, eating sugar sandwiches and dry cereal for dinner, they stopped avoiding getting needed urgent medical care, they stopped smoking to suppress their appetite (this is well documented, look it up), they stopped drinking as self medication, they stopped eating cheap shitty fast food and frozen meals — and surprise, surprise their quality of life went way up.

For $500 fucking dollars.

And surprise, surprise, they dont want that.

And you do know who they is.

Every year, the world produces nearly 400 million tons of plastic, a 19,000% increase from 1950.

The amount is forecast to double by 2050 and 90% is never recycled.

Over half of the plastics produced are used only once, for things like packaging, utensils and straws.

This is why the fight long termism and they dont want you googling Claudia Karina 2024.

They dont want you thinking 100, 250 and 500 years from now.

Everything is the now, everything is the moment, everything disposable, everything ephemeral, everything throwaway.

Almost 30,000 coffee pods go to landfill each month and take 500 years to decompose.

All that for a fucking cup of coffee?

Be so serious.

The fast fashion industry is the second-biggest consumer of water and is responsible for about 10% of global carbon emissions – more than all international flights and maritime shipping combined.

It’s a form of throwaway culture called fast fashion, which produces 92 million tons of waste annually on a global scale.

All to save a few bucks on a shittily designed outfit on Shein by workers that are underpaid working 12 to 16 plus hour shifts and if they make more than a few mistakes per MONTH, they have their pay docked.

But who cares as long as your fit is cute and cheap, right?

Humans have evolved to live on this planet – life on other planets, while technically possible, is undesirable, unhealthy and constrained.

Which ofcourse is Lord Elon & Lord Bezos’ plan — destroy Earth for Amazon Prime 1 Day Sales & Teslas EVs.

Then on to the next planet after they hump, pump and dump Earth.

Do I really have to tell you that only rich wypipo — who caused the destruction of Earth — will be along for the ride to Mars or wherever the fuck planet these sociopaths are planning to colonize next?

The poor, impoverished, disabled, and especially elderly and ofcourse Black & brown people will be left behind except for those who manage to make a deal with the devil, sell the souls and board the Galaxy Express to the next destination of destruction.

Stop driving your car.

Burning fossil fuels is one of the biggest drivers and contributors of climate change.

Need to drive to get to work?

Look into remote options, freelance and/or start your own business online at home.

Ride a bike or a scooter, walk, take a bus or public transportation.

Or just dont go out.

You dont have to shop, socialize, eat, “hang out”, go to the movies.

Do your hair yourself or shave it bald like I do every 3 to 6 months.

I only paid for the razor, after that it is free99 for me to shave my own head:

Question why they are reacting.

Question why you care.

Youve been programmed.

Do it anyway.

If you want color, use chalk dyes as they are temporary and wash out after one use and do not have harmful chemicals dyes and toxins as most salon & store bought vegan dyes do.

Or just slap on a shitty cheap wig if you want some color and variety. I bought a $20 wig two years ago that I wear if I want a colorful lewk.

Thats not wasteful.

Thats not buying a new wig every month or every 3 months. Or going to the salon every month or every 3 months. Or buying hair dyes or getting my hair colored every 3 months.

Deprogram yourself.

Cargill produces 11 billion pounds of beef a year.

11 billion. Every year.

Nothing is ever enough.

The essence of capitalism.

Nothing is ever enough under capitalism.

They are willing to light the world on fire and watch it burn as long as they can continue to grow faster, bigger, stronger, more acquisitions, more money, more wealth, more employees, bigger share prices, higher on the fortune 500, number one meat processor, made triple what Tyson Foods made, made $60 billion more than second closest competitor.

You do know who they is.

There is no price they arent willing to pay to be number one in a capitalist market, no corner they wont cut, no practice they wont stoop to, no low they wont lower themselves to, no lie they wont tell, no animal they wont mistreat/torture/drug/feed with hormones/breed & impregnate endlessly/crowd in overcrowded pens & stalls/terrify/decapitate while alive due to stun guns not working/decapitate up to six times before it works as it is a machine that is an imperfect process and the cow is alive for each attempt/feed dead cows to living cows to save money on feed/not allow them room to walk or move much less provide them with pastures open air sky sun water land.

What about yesterday?

What about disease?

There is no price they arent willing to pay to be number one in a capitalist market, no corner they wont cut, no practice they wont stoop to, no low they wont lower themselves to, no lie they wont tell, no animal they wont mistreat/torture/drug/feed with hormones/breed & impregnate endlessly/crowd in overcrowded pens & stalls/terrify/decapitate while alive due to stun guns not working/decapitate up to six times before it works as it is a machine that is an imperfect process and the cow is alive for each attempt/feed dead cows to living cows to save money on feed/not allow them room to walk or move much less provide them with pastures open air sky sun water land.

No low is too low when there are profits to be made & shareholders to satisfy.

Trump snorted Adderall during the filming of The Apprentice. Theres actual documentation of this.

Watch the video of Trump with pupils f u l l y dilated and fucking blown like a full out fucking meth head slurring the words, “I love everybody”, and tell me hes not snorting Adderall, doing meth and potentially coke.

After WWII, between 1945 and 1949, 20 million refrigerators, 21.4 million cars, and 5.5 million stoves were purchased by American households.

World War II had just ended, families had more disposable income on their hands, and more spending power.

Marketing. Programming. Shiny. New. Ironmen. Fitter. Iron lungs.

There was a huge push from the oil industry to get plastic single-use items adopted widely. For Mobil Chemical (now ExxonMobile), it was all about the plastic bags. During the 1960s they had been patenting all the plastic bag ideas they could. By 1977 they were producing their own brand of plastic bags.

Exxon Mobil created a Plastic Grocery Sack Council in 1985 to get customers to use plastic sacks widely.

Same with retirement being the “golden years” and purchasing a house “being the American dream”.

94% of adult Americans say they identify home ownership as a quintessential part of the American dream.

So, who created the concept since it is so ubiquitous in American society & culture?

The first president of the US League of Local Building & Loan Associations in the 1890s.

Pure propaganda.

Its literally a hundred fucking years of propaganda.

What about the “golden years” of retirement?

Instead of dreaded years of decline, Del Webb revolutionized retirement in America to be something people desired and longed for.

Through the magic of marketing, retirement no longer only meant the end of work. Del Web cleverly sold retirement as the beginning of a new and even better life.

Ten fucking years of retirement is a “life”?

Youve been programmed.

Del Web was simply marketing his retirement communities and rebranded what Americans thought of retirement as.

Look up “Sun City” communities.

Thats why youre slaving your life away at a job you either dont like, hate, or apathetic about, indifferent to, which is literally designed to overwork you, overwhelm you, shut you down, attack your psyche, attack your aura, energy vampires draining your energy, exhausting you, constant pointless masturbatory meetings, constant slacks, IMs, emails, notis.

Constant demands to break you as a person.

Its mindbreaking.

The 9 to 5.

Look up why cubicles were “invented” in the 1960s.

Wake up.

Freelance. Start your own business. Create social media content.

Do what you want now, not when youre 65.

What happens if you die at 64?

The entire idea people predicate their lives on — that they should study hard get good grades graduate; get a good job work hard save for retirement; ten years max before they die “enjoy their golden years” aka retirement.

Wake up.

Per Google:

• Extreme heat waves can cause mood swingsand other psychological effects that can impact mental health:

• Mood changes: Heat waves can cause irritability, anxiety, depression, and impulsivity.

• Cognitive issues: Heat waves can cause trouble concentrating, memory problems, and slowed reaction times.

• Sleep disruption: Heat waves can make it difficult to sleep, which can contribute to mood fluctuations and worsen mental health conditions.

Its an added benefit for them on top of the record profits that cause the climate change that cause the extreme weather, heat waves & poor air quality.

Its not just bad for the environment.

They are aware of the effects as these studies have been around for years.

They want people disordered, addicted, depressed, anxious, overworked, mind body imbalance, severed from nature, obsessed, stressed, never self actualizing, never ascending.

Watch the Earth Song video by MJ:

Understand why he is literally screaming.

Screaming to get through to us.

Do we give a damn?

Really listen at 2:58.

Hes trying to get through to our collective empathy.

Screaming!

Almost 30 years later after this song and video was released, all of these questions can be posed to us today.

Every issue has gotten worse, not better.

Do we give a damn?

Look at the destruction all around MJ in the video.

Look at the destruction weve caused.

Ecological destruction.

Look at the trees surrounding MJ as he screams for empathy, screams for justice, screams for mother Earth, screams for our humanity.

Do we give a damn?

Are we so cruel, so indifferent, so apathetic, so numb to our own beautiful planets destruction?

Who cares, right? We’ll just go destroy another.

And another. And another…

There’ll always be another Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Tim Cook, Trump, J.D. Rockefeller, Ford.

There will always be another leviathan and titan of industry.

Always be more strongmen and ironmen.

Why do you think that is?

Who are the Reptilians?

Who are the inhabitants that live INSIDE the middle of the earth controlling our politics and elections.

Even you are aware that our elections arent actually free or they wouldnt allow them.

Thats why theres never a change.

Trump and Biden again?

The inhabitants of the middle of the planet control the Reptilians — world political leaders and industry titans and leviathans and military leaders.

They ensure that humanitys consciousness never ascends on a mass level and that there is no mass ascension which would lead to a planetary ascension which would remove the grid that the inhabitants of the earth placed there to suppress our mass consciousness and awakening, to keep our third eyes closed and to keep us and our planet from self actualizing from the current third dimension to the tenth dimension.

Do you know who “they” is?

Watch Futurama and actually understand that what is presented to you as “jokes” are the dark entities controlling the dark empaths that currently rule our world.

The Bidens, Trumps, Netanyahus, Blinkens, Jamie Dimons, Elon Musks, Jeff Bezoses, Roger Goodells, Vince McMahons, Tim Cooks, Bill Gates.

All white men — have you ever wondered why that is?

Even Obama descends from the same UK royal bloodline that all US Presidents have descended from.

Look it up.

They’re Reptilian.

The tens of thousands of animal species that WE humans have made go extinct.

1 species — human — is not more worthy than even ONE animal species.

Yet we have made over 75 PERCENT of animal species go extinct with our enviornmentally destructive and capitalist driven practices.

Yet people have the AUDACITY to call ME a terrorist?

Im an "ecoterrorist" because I am for the VOLUNTARY extinction of the human race?

Then what are they when they are okay with the extinction of tens of thousands of animal species by ONE disgustingly destructive species — HUMAN — to the extent that over 75 PERCENT of all animal species that have ever existed on Earth are now extinct because of US, humanity!

THEY are the terrorists, NOT me!

I want the Earth saved and humanity extinct.

They want what Elon & Bezos wants — the destruction of Earth and then humans, just like the Borg, just move to the next planet and fucking destroy it and I dont want that.

There has been no reversal of these consumerist, capitalist, overconsumption, maximalist, climate change causing contributing & accelerating, ecologically destructive, environmentally harmful, rainforest destroying, landfill filling business practices.

THEY are financially rewarded so the practices continue and the Earth continues to die!

Resources continue to be overextracted.

The global south continues to be exploited by the capitalist west as they do not have labor laws, union protections or environmental regulations so cheap stuff is made there, their resources are overextracted, they are overworked and underpaid, they are not given protective gear, they die, they get poisoned, they get sick, women and children working and dying in cobalt mines for iPhones!

Women and children working and dying in cobalt mines in Congo for iPhones!

Women and children working and dying in diamond mines in Senegal for engagement rings!

Humanity in the capitalist west continues to overconsume, be materialistic, wasteful, overspend, to impress others, for clout, to flex, for status, for prestige, for privilege, to “treat themselves”, to “spoil themselves”, to numb themselves, to feed their addictions, to feed their disordered behaviors, to fill their emptiness, to give themselves a sense of identity, in an endless quest for meaning, to overcompensate, because they are depressed, stressed, pressed, obsesed, anxious, bored, listless, lethargic, lack empathy, addicted to shopping, retail therapy, numbing their emotions, adrenaline rush of a new purchase getting something on sale discount rack BOGO FOMO new shoes new dress new makeup new pocketbook for that hit of adrenaline for that instant pick me up.

The earth dying.

Killing fields, Forever 21, forever in a landfill.

Never a thought.

The bible which is bastardized kemet and is used as a tool of control claims that Adam & Eve have “dominion” over the animals and earth and that fake shit has been used to justify everything: throwaway culture & single use plastics on the 50s, fast food in the 50s, fast fashion in the 2000s.

Wear an outfit once, throw it away.

Use plastic utensils once, throw them away.

Use your iPhone once, oh theres a pink one now and this blonde golfer and this couple are telling me to buy it through Tmobile or Verizon, time to trade in my perfectly working current iPhone for a new one because its pink.

I mean, because it has 8 cameras on the back and not 7.

I mean, because it has FaceTime.

I mean, because I want to react “Haha” to my friends texts and I dont want to be left out.

Killing fields.

Electronic waste from discarded iPhones end up in Southeast Asia poisoning local communities, water supply and air quality but it is kept from the American public.

Congo killing mines killing women and children for the cobalt that powers the batteries in iPhones, electric vehicles, Apple watches & TVs are kept from the public.

Genocides & killing fields.

iPhone 15s.

Cruises are allowed to dump their waste directly into the ocean.

Cruisin USA.

Via foe.org:

If you guessed a large portion of it ends up in the oceans, you’d be correct. Sadly, U.S. laws do not do enough to protect our bodies of water. It allows cruise ships to dump waste into the ocean as long as the ships are more than three and a half miles offshore. That means that dirty water from sinks and showers and laundry facilities are discharged into the water. It means that waste from toilets is discharged into the water. And it also means that food waste is also dumped into the ocean. 

What about killing fields?

Herodotus (the father of History) stated in his historic passages that the Egyptians were black/dark. Herodotus perceived a Greek oracle to have originated from Egypt because she was "black" and that the natives of the Nile region are "black with heat" and that Egyptians were "black skinned with wooly hair."

When describing an Egyptian, the Greek writer Lucian said the "boy is not merely black; he has thick lips and his legs are too thin."

Aeschylus described the Egyptians as a "crew with their black limbs and white tunics."

The remarkable French philosopher Constantine De Volney on a visit to Egypt in 1787 stated "that this race of Black men, today our slave and the object of our scorn, is the very race to which we owe our arts, sciences, and even the use of speech!"

The ancient name for Egypt was Kemet meaning "Land of the Blacks."

When someone tells you that the Egyptians were not Black, show them this post and direct them to consult their history books.

THE THRONE WORLD OF ISIS: NUMMO GENIUS: THE GREAT LADY OF PURE WATER

KEMET AND THE LORD OF THE PERFECT BLACK

HERE'S SOME INFORMATION FOR PEOPLE THAT WILL ALLOW THEM TO CONNECT THE DOTS IN SO FAR AS A LOT OF THE THINGS I SAY ABOUT THE DIVINE FEMININE BLACK SUN AND THE NUMMO SERPENTINE WATER SPIRITS, AND EVEN THE BLACK HOLE AT THE CENTER OF THE MILKY WAY GALAXY, AND HOW THAT RELATES TO DIGITARIA SIRIUS-B AND DRACO.

THE DIVINE FEMININE OCTAVE OF CREATION, TIME TIME SPACE, IPEP-IPY, APEP, SET, DRACO, ISIS MOTHER OF OSIRIS.

WHAT DO HIPPOS AND CROCODILES HAVE IN COMMON? THEY BOTH CAN BE SEEN ON THE SURFACE, YET AT THE SAME TIME CAN DESCEND INTO THE WATER, AS SET HAS BEEN CITED AS DOING MANY TIMES. THE DARK MATTER OCEAN, THE OCEAN OF DREAMS AND OF THE HEART, THE QUANTUM UNIFIED FIELD OF PURE POTENTIALITY THAT IS AN OCEAN.

THE MAYAN SHAMANS SAY THAT REALITY COMES IN DIMENSIONAL LAYERS LIKE AN ONION. IT'S THE SAME CONCEPT OF THE SEVEN SUNS, ACCEPT THE HOME PLANET AND SUN OF THE NUMMO GENIUS IS THE EIGHTH SUN, ALL SEVEN OF THE OTHER SUNS AS ONE, THE TRUE ALPHA AND OMEGA, THE TRUE BEGINNING AND THE END, THE DIVINE FEMININE BLACK SUN, THE COSMIC EGG OF THE GODDESS (AMMA) IN THE DIVINE WOMB OF CREATION, NOTICE THE VASE-PITCHER OF WATER HELD BY TAWERET, DOES THAT REMIND YOU OF THE IMAGE ASSOCIATED WITH THE SIGN OF AQUARIUS?

REMEMBER IN THE STORY OF OGO IN DOGON LEGEND HOW BECAUSE OF OGO'S EVIL DEEDS HE ENDED UP WITHOUT THE SPIRITUAL ELEMENT OF WATER?

THEN DO YOU REMEMBER HOW PHARAOH AKHENATEN WAS LIKENED TO HORUS-MARDUK, THE HORUS THAT CUT THE HEAD OFF OF ISIS, THE SAME EVENT AS CUTTING THE HEAD OFF OF APEP?

THEN DO YOU REMEMBER HOW AKHENATEN TURNED AGAINST THE ANCIENT ONES AND THE OLD DIVINE FEMININE DEITIES OF KEMET, WENT COMPLETELY INSANE AND DECLARED HIMSELF IN HIS BODY ALONE TO BE GOD, JUST LIKE HOW HORUS-MARDUK BECAME THE REAL EGYPTIAN ANTI, ANTI-KIRIST, BECAUSE HE CUT THE HEAD OFF OF HIS MOTHER ISIS?

AND DID YOU KNOW THAT THE DEITIES THAT AKHENATEN SOUGHT TO SUPPRESS AND WRITE OUT OF HISTORY WERE ALL DIVINE FEMININE DEITIES, AKA THE NUMMO, WHO WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR PROTECTING WOMEN, BABIES, AND YOUNG CHILDREN? ANOTHER ASSOCIATION BEING OANES PUTTING A STOP TO CANNIBALISM.

THEN DO YOU SEE HOW IN AKHENATEN'S SLANDER CAMPAIGN AGAINST THE DIVINE FEMININE, AFTER HE CUT THE HEAD OFF OF ISIS AND BEGAN TO SUPPRESS AND ATTACK WOMEN AND CHILDREN, HOW HE TRIED TO REWRITE HISTORY BY SAYING THAT LILITH AND LAMASHTU INSTEAD OF BEING THE PROTECTORS OF WOMEN AND CHILDREN THAT THEY WERE, WERE MADE OUT TO BE DEITIES THAT WOULD ATTACK THOSE WHOM IN ACTUALITY THEY PROTECT?

THE DRACONIAN DRAGONS, THE NUMMO, THE REPTILIANS, THE SERPENT HEADED PEOPLE, THE MINOAN GENIUS (JINN), THE ANCIENT ONES, ALL OF THESE BEINGS ARE OF THE DIVINE FEMININE OCTAVE OF CREATION AND EXIST IN THE DIMENSION OF THE LORD OF THE PERFECT BLACK WHICH IS THE THRONE WORLD OF ISHTAR ISIS, THE DIVINE FEMININE BLACK SUN COSMIC EGG IN THE DIVINE WOMB OF CREATION.

IPY, TAWERET, AND THE MINOAN GENIUS WITH THE WRITINGS AND STORIES THAT GO ALONG WITH THEM, ALL ARE HISTORICAL DOCUMENTATION AND PROOF OF A LOT OF THE THINGS THAT I TALK ABOUT. I HAVE BEEN CALLED AS A CHAMPION TO DEFEND THE DIVINE FEMININE WORLD. THE PATRIARCHY IS EVIL. THEY ARE THE OUT OF BALANCE JACKALS, ALL MALE WITH NO SPIRITUAL ELEMENT OF WATER, AND NO CONNECTION TO NATURE, AND THEIR WORLD IS THE WHITE SUN, THE CHRESTOS OUTER SUN, THE ONE AKHENATEN LIKED SO MUCH AND CALLED ATEN.

THERE WAS NO SLAVERY IN EGYPT UP UNTIL THE REIGN OF PHARAOH AKHENATEN. DO YOU STILL HAVE ANY DOUBTS ABOUT HOW EVIL HE WAS? HE WASN'T TRYING TO HELP THE HUMAN RACE BY UNITING THEM UNDER ONE GOD, HE WAS TRYING TO SUPPRESS THE ENTIRE DIVINE FEMININE WORLD, SO THAT HE COULD ENSLAVE EVERYBODY BECAUSE HE DIDN'T WANT TO FOLLOW THE WAYS OF HIS MOTHER ISIS, THE GREAT MOTHER ISIS, IPY, THE NUMMO JINN. THE WAY OF ATEN IS THE WAY OF PERVERSITY IN THAT INSTEAD OF WORKING IN HARMONY WITH NATURE IT WOULD SEEK TO CONQUER AND/OR DESTROY IT.

AKHENATEN AND HIS EVIL WHITE SUN DEITY ATEN ARE ABSOLUTELY PURE EVIL. AKHENATEN AND HIS VIZIER RAMOSE ARE THE ONES RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL THE MODERN ABRAHAMIC RELIGIONS BY REBELLING AGAINST THE GREAT MOTHER AND THE DIVINE FEMININE WORLD, AND ALL WHO SIDE WITH THE PATRIARCHY WILL BE LEFT WITHOUT THE SPIRITUAL ELEMENT OF WATER, TO BURN IN OGOS INFERNO, WHICH IS ALREADY INSTITUTED.

PART OF MY WORK AS THE VOICE OF THE DIVINE FEMININE WORLD OF THE BLACK SUN IS TO LET EVERYBODY KNOW THAT TIME IS SHORT FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO MAKE THE JUMP TO THE DIVINE FEMININE DIMENSIONS OF EXISTENCE. WITH ME BRINGING THE FULL SPECTRUM OF MASCULINE DIVINITY INTO THE DIVINE FEMININE REALM, THE THRONE WORLD OF ISIS HAS THE COMPLETE SPECTRUM OF FREQUENCIES, AND HAS NO MORE NEED TO PUT UP WITH BEING ABUSED AND SUPPRESSED BY THE PATRIARCHY, THUS THE DIMENSIONS AND TIMELINES WILL COMPLETELY SPLIT, THE PATRIARCHY AND ALL THOSE WHO FOLLOW THEM WILL BE COMPLETELY LOCKED OUT OF THE SPIRIT WORLD SO THEY DO NOT HAVE THE ELEMENT OF WATER, THUS THEY WILL SUFFER AND BURN UNTIL THEY ARE NO MORE IN THE LIGHT INFERNO OF THEIR EVIL OUT OF BALANCE WHITE SUN ATEN, THAT IS REALLY JUST A SYMBOL OF AN EVIL PHARAOH WHO CUT THE HEAD OFF OF HIS MOTHER SO THAT HE COULD TRY AND ENSLAVE EVERYBODY BECAUSE HE DIDN'T WANT TO FOLLOW THE WAYS OF THE NATURAL WORLD, THE WAYS OF THE DIVINE FEMININE NUMMO GENIUS JINN.

I PROVIDED PLENTY OF LINKS FOR ANYBODY WHO WANTS TO GET THE RESEARCH STARTED, BUT EVERYTHING I WRITE ABOUT HAS A BASIS IN HISTORICAL REALITY, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER I PUT IT IN STORY FORM OR NOT, AND EVEN THOUGH IT DOES SOUND QUITE FANTASTIC TOO MANY, I ASSURE YOU THAT THE REALITY AND TRUTH UNDERLYING ALL OF IT IS QUITE REAL.

HOW DO I KNOW ALL THIS YOU ASK? I'VE SAID IT OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN, I AM A HUMAN MAN THAT IS MARRIED TO A GODDESS JINN, AND SHE TELLS ME MANY THINGS.

I’m sorry if this question has been answered millions of times, but over the months I’ve become worried if it’s wrong for me to worship the Kemetic Gods.

I stsrted practicing this faith earlier this year and have made connections to many gods, but I still worry that since I’m white, it’s really shameful and disrespectful for me to worship them. I love the gods and I don’t want to ignore them, but I’m worries this is cultural appropriation.

Em hotep!

Short answer: no

Long answer: some good comments from a thread on r/kemetic

I will disagree a little with the last comment as there are some cultures with closed practices and customs, but the rest is pretty accurate.

Quite simply, our concept of race did not exist back then in the age of pyramids. You were either Egyptian or a foreigner, and even then, they were very open and shared their culture with others. Granted, like any major civilization, they did engage in warfare but that's a whole nother thing u can read up on ur own.

We even have greek and egyptian God combinations. Roman ones too I believe. So it's not cultural appropriation to me imo. I've had some people tell me it is because I am white and while it has upset me, I let it go cause there's a lot of misinformation and gatekeeping regarding ancient Egyptian culture and history.

Much like how the ancient Egyptians wouldn't have given a shit if you were black or white or whatever, the Gods don't either. I can't stress this enough, but many ancient civilizations did not collectively identify as a skin color. They were simply their country (Egyptian, Roman, Greek).

It would only be shameful and disrespectful if you willfully created isfet and upset the balance of Maat or did shit like offer fish to Osiris. Just do your research and keep reading about the Gods and Goddesses and you'll be good regardless of skintone!

“The real story of the scramble for Africa is presented…as having started some time around 1830 AD when France invaded Cueta, the most northern part of Morocco closest to what will be today the Rock of Gibraltar. And from 1830 that scramble went on until 1864 and then again started in 1884 at which time the Berlin Conference was called by Otto Von Bismarck and Kaiser Wilhelm.

But that kind of analysis will be totally in error…

The scramble for Africa took place before there was the first European power in history. I’m talking about before there was Greece. The scramble for Africa took place before there was a book in the Bible called Genesis… The scramble for Africa took place when the first non-African people invaded Africa for the purpose of taking the African land, that takes us up to 1675 BCE when the Hykos, the people called the Shepherd Kings came from around the Oxus River in Asia and invaded Lower Egypt. The Africans were already in their Thirteenth dynastic.”

Yosef Ben-Jochannan, also known as Dr. Ben, was an African-American scholar, historian and lecturer, respected for his meticulous research into the roots of African history. As an African-centered historian, Dr. Ben’s work focused mainly on the Black presence in ancient Egypt. He contends in his writings that the pharaohs came out of the heart of Africa and that the original Jews were from Ethiopia and were Africans, and the whyte Jews adopted the faith and customs later. He has been accused of distorting history by Eurocentric historians and, since his work contradicts their prevailing view of Egyptian and African history, it is, therefore, deem controversial.

Dr. Ben reported that he was born in Ethiopia to a Puerto Rican mother, Julia Matta and an Ethiopian father, Kriston Ben-Jochannan. He was named after his grandfather Jochannan. In fact, his name is Hebrew and means Joseph the son of Jonathan. Shortly after his birth, the family moved to St. Croix, part of the United States Virgin Islands, where he grew up as an only child. Dr. Ben travelled extensively with his parents through South America and was educated in Puerto Rico, Brazil, Cuba, and Spain, with the idea of becoming a civil engineer.

Dr. Ben immigrated to the United States in 1945 and made New York City his home base until early 1988 when he took up residence in Cairo/Giza, Egypt. He worked as a draftsman and continued his studies. He conducted research in Africa, mainly Egypt, Sudan and Ethiopia. He was well versed in Hebrew, Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Greek and had a reading knowledge of Italian and classical German. Dr. Ben began his educational teaching in Harlem in 1967 at HARYOU-ACT. He worked as an adjunct professor (1973-1987) at Cornell University in the Africana Studies and Research Center, then directed by James Turner. He also taught at other institutions, including Malcom-King College in Harlem and Rutgers University. In 1977 he accepted an honorary faculty position with the Israelite Rabbinical Academy at Beth Shalom Hebrew Congregation in Brooklyn.

Dr. Ben appeared several times on Gil Noble’s WABC-TV weekly public affairs series Like It Is.

Dr. Ben was a prolific author whose writing focused primarily on ancient Nile Valley civilizations and their influence on Western cultures. According to Nick Chiles writing for Atlanta Black Star, “One of [Dr. Ben’s] many specialties was the ancient civilization of Kemet in Egypt. He was one of the first true Egyptologists, before that title had even come into vogue. Dr. Ben was always a controversial figure because he had no interest in trying to placate European scholars or writers who were threatened by his claims about Africa, Europe and the Middle East.”

In 2002, Ben-Jochannan donated his personal library of more than 35,000 volumes, manuscripts and ancient scrolls to the Nation of Islam.

Dr. Yosef Ben-Jochannan died in Harlem, New York on March 19, 2015 at the age of 96 at the Bay Park Nursing Home in the Bronx. He had been married three times and had a total of 13 children.

“Of all our greats, Dr. Ben physically took tens of thousands of scholars, activists, students and associations to the Nile Valley to make the pages of his book more authentic,” said his colleague, Reggie Mabry. “We saw our own experiences of what he wrote… For that the Black world is indebted to this Black man of the Nile and his family.”

Askhant - The Athon Empire-Edit copy by Daniel Arrhakis (2023)

A new mystic futuristic mystery series "Askhant - The Athon Empire " for 2023.

https://youtu.be/SoNLtvhWI8Q

The  Egyptian pharaoh of the 18th dynasty (1539–1292 bc) Akhenaten,   identified himself with the sun god Aton and elevated the cult of Aton above the worship of most other gods, including Amon, the king of the gods.

Political and religious upheavals showed very early in history that people do not like major changes in their deepest beliefs and ancestral values. After his death, his name was erased from many temples, buildings were destroyed and the ancient worship was restored.

The night sky was understood as the body of the goddess Nut, who tried to connect with the earth, the god Geb, but was prevented by the air, the god Shu. Nut's body was composed of stars which, in some religious texts, are seen as "illuminated vessels" sailing through the body of the goddess.

 It was their familiarity with the night sky and the cycles of nature that made the ancient Egyptians perceive a pattern: as soon as Sopdet, an extremely bright star appeared in the sky, the floods of the Nile River began. That star is currently called Sirius and the story I'm going to tell you,  begins on a distant planet that surrounds it - Askhant and on it develops a mystical-technological civilization that governs this mysterious world - The Athon Empire.

Ancient archaeological records on the planet speak of a distant blue planet illuminated by a star,  deserts as far as the eye can see "Desheret" and of very fertile black lands "Kemet" and these records have always intrigued the various generations of scholars and Askhant mystics.

Many of the ancient records were burned but a Secret Society tries to discover the whole truth amid enigmas and forbidden secrets against the laws of the Keoths, the ruling mystical elite.

Members of the secret society, identified with an inverted triangle, "The Guardians Of Thoth" move through mazes of information, ancient writings, data centers, excavations and ancient ruins in hopes of understanding their own history and understanding why so much institutional secrecy .

Cultural Appropriation in Modern Witchcraft

Cultural appropriation occurs when cultural practices are taken out of their original context and misused by outsiders. Cultural appropriation is different from cultural sharing, which occurs naturally in any multicultural society. Eating at an Indian restaurant is not cultural appropriation. Wearing a bindi when you don’t understand its significance in Indian culture is.

Cultural appropriation is a huge issue in modern witchcraft. When you have witches using white sage to “smudge” their altars, doing meditations to balance their chakras, and calling on Santa Muerte in spells, all without making any effort to understand the cultural roots of those practices, you have a serious problem.

When trying to understand cultural appropriation in witchcraft, it’s important to understand the difference between open and closed magic systems. An open system is one that is open to exchange with outsiders — both sharing ideas/practices and taking in new ones. In terms of religion, spirituality, and witchcraft, a completely open system has no restrictions on who can practice its teachings. A closed system is one that is isolated from outside influences — usually, there is some kind of restriction on who can practice within these systems.

There are different reasons a system might be closed. Some systems require a formal training and/or initiation, but there is no restriction on who can be initiated. Reiki and some forms of Wicca operate this way. (All other forms of Wicca are completely open.) Some systems are closely tied to a complex set of cultural beliefs that may not be fully understood by outsiders, so they are closed to people outside of that culture. Kabbalah (Jewish mysticism) is an example of this. Some systems require a family lineage, so you must have been born into the system to practice within it. Zoroastrianism and some forms of traditional witchcraft fall into this category. And finally, some systems are closed as a kind of self defense, usually because they have been the target of persecution from outsiders — keeping the system closed is a way to preserve beliefs and practices that might otherwise be lost. African Diaspora Religions fall into this last category.

If a belief or practice is part of a closed system, outsiders should not take part in it. It really is that simple. If you aren’t Native American, you should not be performing smudging ceremonies. If you aren’t Jewish, you should not be practicing Kabbalah or working with Lilith as your “goddess.” If you aren’t Black, you should not be practicing Hoodoo. You get the idea.

On a similar note, just because a system is open does not mean you can do whatever you want with its teachings. You should still make a point of educating yourself on the system you are practicing and take care not to take things out of their original context. Some forms of Shinto are open, but you wouldn’t involve the kami in a Wiccan- or pagan-style ritual — Shinto has its own rules for ritual, which are very different from Western paganism. If you feel called to work with a cultural system you are not already part of, you need to be willing to put in the work of respectfully learning about and preserving that system.

It is impossible to appropriate a dominant culture. For example, in the United States, white American culture is treated as the default. There is tremendous pressure on all other cultural groups to speak English, dress like white Americans, and act like white Americans. White American culture has deep roots in Protestant Christianity, and these religious influences are enforced through social norms and sometimes through laws. Many businesses are closed on Christmas and Easter, and I live in an area where it is illegal to sell alcohol on Sunday mornings. White (Christian) American culture is literally being shoved down everyone’s throats all the time. A non-Christian immigrant wearing a cable-knit sweater, taking Sundays off work, or celebrating Christmas isn’t cultural appropriation, because they are expected to adopt these elements of the dominant culture.

It is also impossible to appropriate your own culture, even if you weren’t raised in it. For example, a Latinx person who decides to learn brujeria does not need anyone’s permission to do so. That practice is a part of their cultural heritage.

Dead cultures are a gray area, but the general consensus is that you cannot appropriate a system that isn’t connected to a living culture. For example, Hellenic polytheism is very different from modern Greek culture. A non-Greek person practicing Hellenic polytheism isn’t appropriating Greek culture, because that religion hasn’t been openly practiced in Greece for thousands of years. The same goes for many other types of reconstructionist paganism (paganism based on recreating ancient beliefs and practices) such as Kemetic (Egyptian) polytheism, Celtic paganism, Norse paganism, etc.

This isn’t to say that you shouldn’t still make an effort to be respectful of the cultural origins of these religions. If you worship the Kemetic gods, you should probably educate yourself on at least the basic history and philosophy of Ancient Egypt. You should probably try to be faithful to the ancient beliefs in your practice. But you don’t need any sort of initiation, because there is no direct connection between the ancient religion and modern reconstruction.

So How Do We Avoid Appropriation?

Know the difference between open and closed systems, and respect if a system is closed.

If a system is open or only partially closed, try to find a teacher or mentor who is already a part of that system. If an in-person mentor isn’t possible, try to find books and other resources created by people who are actually part of that culture.

Only use items or practices in your witchcraft if you have a good understanding of their cultural, religious, and/or spiritual significance.

If a member of a culture or magic system tells you their system is closed and asks you to stop using it, listen to them.

Educate yourself on how cultural appropriation contributes to systemic racism and other social issues.

Don’t try to sneak around culture appropriation. If you burn white sage to cleanse your space, you are still appropriating Native American spiritual practices (and contributing to the overharvesting of an endangered plant), even if you don’t use the term “smudging” or appropriate the entire smudge ceremony. If something is not yours to practice, leave it alone.

Learning about other cultures is not the same as cultural appropriation. Here’s a personal example: I live fairly close to New Orleans, and I think New Orleans Voodoo is a fascinating tradition. When I visit, I like to speak to local Voodoo practitioners and learn from them about their practice. That being said, I recognize that I am not a part of that practice, and I’m not about to start incorporating elements of Voodoo into my personal practice.

As a white woman, my track record is not perfect when it comes to cultural appropriation. When I first started my witchcraft journey, I burned white sage and worked with the chakra system. I didn’t know any better, and these things were presented to me as if they were open to anyone. But now I do know better, and I’m making a conscious effort to avoid appropriation in my practice.

I’m also trying to do better for new witches just entering the world of alternative spirituality. It’s important for us to talk about things like cultural appropriation so that baby witches know from the beginning what the issues are and why they matter.

Just discovered the Kemet hashtag & if you're not familiar with the word Kemet that was the name of Egypt in the past.

Kemet mean "Black Land" which alot of people mistake for the skin colour but it's actually black land cause of the soil, it was rich black & that's how Egypt started by ancient Egyptians living on that soil by the Nile banks.

When I entered the hashtag I've seen what I feared & that's afrocentrism.

Technically Afrocentrics believe that they're the owners of Egypt & so on & that ancient Egyptians were black. If you're familiar with the Egyptian history you'd know that literally everyone is trying to claim it even though it has been proved that we still carry our Egyptian DNA even though we've colonised many times, we still carry it.

So the hashtag has false info about Egypt, false pictures, pictures of ancient Egyptians photoshopped to go with the Afrocentric movement.

Please don't believe everything you see on the internet about Egypt, Google info yourself cause we Egyptians are tired with everyone claiming our history.

I guess I should make a post about the beings I work with, in case you're curious.

Some history first. When I was about six I had an egyptology special interest (typical lol) so I wanted desperately to work with Bast. She turned me down cold. I tried an Abrahamic god after that but he never responded, so from there although I researched greek and roman gods extensively I gave up on response. When I was about 18, starting college, that changed.

I began working closely with the greek gods, through dream and prayer. Hades and Charon, Hermes, Athena, and Aphrodite were some of the main ones. Since then, Hades has adopted me as his child. Hermes is something of a mentor or older cousin to me. And many other of the pantheon are some form of extended family.

At that time, I also believed myself to be working with Thanatos and never questioned why he appeared to me as a tall black man in ancient egyptian dress. I'm sure you can see the blindingly obvious result: It was Anubis all along, colluding with Thanatos to get to know me since he was aware of my trepidation regarding his pantheon. Absolute fucking bitch move, and it worked. The doggy ass bitch is now effectively my brother. What an ass. (I love him.)

Recently, I have also been recieving dreams from a norse god I believe may be Odin. The dreams are extraordinarily vague and woo-y, which apparently is just Odin's style. I must say I'm not a fan, really wish he'd just TELL me what he's on about. I'm not as familiar with the norse gods so if anyone knows good resources, hit me up!

Also, very gently, I have had some talks with dearest Luci-Lu. He seems to think I'm some kind of funny little creacher he likes to watch for entertainment and like.... listen. He's not wrong. And he's also really not bothering me so I'm not gonna spurn him for no reason.

As for other beings, I do work a little with the local fair folk and with other such naturey spirits. I also get a lot of ghostly walk-ins because, well-- I'm a witch, my sister is a witch, my dad comes from a long line of mediums, my parents are ghost hunters-- you get the picture. My mother attracts spiritual nasties like a damned magnet. They don't really bother me, because my room is warded Literally to hell and back, and our family has a reputation among both living and dead as being neutral ground. But it's a thing, so.

I think that's about it. I'd really like to learn more about kemetic, norse, and demonological stuff so please hit me up if you know things!!!

A HIDDEN AND FORGOTTEN HISTORY.

--When the name "Africa" ​​did not yet exist, we spoke, to refer to regions of this territory, of Kathiopa, land of Ethiopia, land of "Ham", land of "Kush", land of “Sheba”, from Alkebulan… According to the famous historian Ibn Khaldoun, these lands received the name “IFRIQIYA” (Africa) after the invasion of one of the Arab kings of Yemen, who bore the name “Ifriqos bin Qais bin Saifi”, this king will seize the lands of the North (Maghreb, etc.), and from then on these will bear the name referring to him, that is to say “Ifriqya” (Africa). Moreover, the famous explorer Leon the African, says in his book cosmographia de affrica that the name Africa was given by Malek-Afriki, Sabean king, when he invaded northern Africa (current Maghreb). --the Europeans designate us by the word Africans having for origin the word Ifriqiya, name of a Berber tribe settled in Roman times, between Tunisia and eastern Algeria. -- The Arabs designate us by the word Sudan meaning Blacks, and our continent by AlKabulan meaning He who knows how to receive. --The Greeks designated us by the word Ethiopians meaning Burnt Face, and the word Libya designated our continent (Herodotus, History II, 22 and History IV 42). --The name Africa would come from the West by the Romans, who used the name Africa terra “Terre des Afri” (plural, or “Afer” in the singular) to designate the north of the continent, like the province of Africa with Carthage as its capital, corresponding to present-day Tunisia. --The Afri were a tribe that lived in North Africa in the region of Carthage. The origin of Afer can be connected to the Afar language of the Phoenicians, which would mean "dust". But a theory from 1981 claims that it derives from the Berber word ifri meaning "cave", in reference to troglodytes (cave dwellers). --As for the Jews, they designated us by the word Koushim and our continent by the word Kush, from the name BaKouSou one of our peoples of the Nzadi (Jeremiah 13: 23 and Zephaniah 3: 10). --However, chapter 10 of the book of Genesis, citing the three known continents in antiquity, reveals to us that the ancient name of our continent was KaM, diminutive of KaMa. --The root of the word "KaMa" is omnipresent among many peoples of Central Africa, West Africa. This root inherited from our ancestors is found in the following languages: --Kem-bou meaning in the Fulani language: Charcoal! -- KaMa meaning Black in Coptic, --iKaMa meaning Blackened in Mbochi, --KaMi meaning Burned in Bambara, KéMi meaning Burned in Mandjakou, --KheuM meaning Burned in Wolof, --Kim meaning Burned in Mossi, --KeMpou meaning Black in Vaï, --KéMatou meaning Completely Burned in Mandjakou are to be compared to the Egyptian KaMtou. --The Egyptian word KaMa represented graphically by a piece of burning wood (a charcoal) derives from the radical KaLa also meaning Charcoal in some of our languages, like Kongo, Téké, Zigoula, Mbati, etc. --But is the word KaMa (KMT) native to our continent? Yes, because since the appearance of hieroglyphic writing (3400 BC), the ancient Egyptians designated themselves by the word KaMtou meaning Blacks, because they were. Moreover, they used the word KaMi or KeMet (KMT) meaning Black, not only to designate their land, but also by extension our continent. Sudan means "land of the blacks" and Ethiopia means "burnt faces".

--The word KaM also appears on a Canaanite inscription dated to the 10th century BC. J. C, and designates our continent (Stèle de Paraiba, in Brazil).

One time in the 2000s, the Tonester and I were invited to participate in a Pagan meetup down in central Texas. We were so excited, we stayed up all night the previous evening to bake a shit-ton of chocolate chip cookies. Then we put on our best black duds and went to the meetup. When we arrived, we found we were two of the only three men present, and that everyone else at the meetup was a Wiccan. They took one look at our black clothes and our horned pentagram necklaces and thought we were bad news. And they were really weirded out by the fact that we had made so many chocolate chip cookies. They were like, “Who the hell are these devil worshipers, and why did they bring cookies?” We tried to make friends and explain what we were all about; but things didn’t go well. As soon as we mentioned Set’s name, we received the standard response: “Isn’t He the bad guy of the Egyptian pantheon? Why would you worship the bad guy?” And when we attempted to explain, we were chastised for “not being Pagan enough.” Everything we told them about Ma’at, isfet, and Set’s war against Ap-p sounded “too Christian” to them. They seemed to think we had simply taken Christianity and replaced Jesus with an Egyptian devil-god. They didn’t believe that anything we were talking about had actually originated from Egypt. After a while, it became clear that we just weren’t welcome (despite the fact that everyone seemed to enjoy our cookies). So we left and went home. We put so much energy into this event, and we really tried our best to be cordial and make friends. But we were treated like creeps, and it was demoralizing. We never went to another Pagan meetup again after that. The word Pagan comes from the Latin paganus, which means “country dweller.” When the Roman Empire adopted Christianity as its official state religion, pagan was applied to virtually anyone who refused to convert—with the insinuation being that non-Christians were primitive, backward yokels. No one in history ever referred to themselves as a Pagan until after the Industrial Revolution, when artists of the Romantic movement started incorporating ancient polytheist ideas into their work. Since then, Pagan has become a “catch-all” term for various new religious movements that each take their inspiration from nature and ancient mythology in some way (e.g., Wicca, Druidism, Heathenry, Kemeticism, etc.). It does not actually denote any particular theology, philosophy, or creed; it is simply a collective “safe space” for several religious communities that just don’t feel welcome anywhere else. So when Pagans alienate other Pagans from this “safe space,” it is especially hypocritical. Even Wiccans know what it is like to have people call Child Protection Services on you simply for identifying as a “witch.” You would think, therefore, that they would be a little more sympathetic to other Pagans who struggle with similar prejudices. But in my experience, people generally deal with persecution by trying to shift it on to somebody else. This ugly tendency is every bit as true of Pagans as it is of other religious communities. Sometimes when people ask about my religion, they get confused because of all the different terms that can be applied to it. I prefer to identify as a Setian, but I can also be described as a Kemetic polytheist. And of course, I include myself beneath the Pagan umbrella (even though certain other Pagans would prefer that I didn’t). But really, Pagan is my least favorite self-label. It can be very useful for networking purposes; but apart from that, it is practically meaningless.
