i know my ancestors be tired of my cry baby ass 😅 especially while i’m trying to endure this break up
like, a couple of weeks ago i was crying to my ancestors while cooking dinner. and i just kept saying how i felt like a fool for being played like i was and how i just wanted to die.
why all of a sudden, everybody plays the fool by the main ingredient start playing in my head repeatedly. not like it was stuck in my head, like my ancestors really wanted me to play the song for them.
i’m like okay, i turn on their little altar speaker and put the song on and y’all the first lyrics:
“Okay, so you’re heart broken.
You sit around mopin’,
Cryin’ and cryin’
You say you’re even thinking about dying?
Well, before you do anything rash, dig this:
Everybody plays the fool, sometimes.”
tell me why i immediately start laughing, i couldn’t even be sad anymore. they were really like “you’re not the first and you won’t be the last person to be played. get it together, girl.” but in the gentlest way possible.
anyways, i love my ancestors. they’re so funny, but so right 🥴

Dos legados do meu passado, eu apenas queria perder o medo extremo de visitar cemitério. Amo a arte tumular, o ambiente do lugar, mas fui assombrada, ao menos diziam isso, de eguns no meu pé

🕯💀 Happy All Souls Day 🖤🕯
🖤💀 The Hoodoo Holiday festivities continue! Today we step into the shadow of deep healing work as we continue to welcome, celebrate, & venerate our Dead.
For those who are familiar with Catholicism, All Souls Day is dedicated to "all other loved ones" - non-Saints & those who are not of Elevated status. Thus, today we tend to the shadow work of our lineages; we uplift the Ancestors of our small egun (i.e.: our less than honorable ancestors, who died violently or suddenly, who remain in unrest, who lived hard lives, who endured great suffering, who perpetuated generational curses, who contributed to generational trauma, etc.).
Some differentiate this day from All Saints by focusing solely on small egun Ancestors; those who need elevating, prayer, healing, light, love, karmic debts paid, etc. & are open to receiving it - more akin to Dia De Los Muertos.
Others simply keep yesterday's tradition & festivities going (i.e.: tending to the graves of our Ancestors, communing with our Dead, getting the family together, enjoying leftovers, building family trees, prayer offerings, lighting candles, playing music, singing, dancing, etc.).
Regardless, however you choose to celebrate IS valid! May your Ancestors, - Big & small Egun - continue to be blessed. Ase. 💀🖤

Moar Vuosttami. Ulli's hanging out with the sheepsies
and then it was birthday time.
She's so short her anims get really funny sometimes
Johka's having a normal one
And Ausarta befriends this handsome fella called Poppo, who has been wandering this island since time immemorial
Welcome to the family, guy
Johka and his cousin Egun are really similar and I platonic-ship em, but belonging to separate classes makes things awkward sometimes
moar soon

Xangô e Iansã - Orixás Regentes de 2025
O Casal do Dendê será responsável pela regência de 2025, e podem ter certeza, será um ano de grandes transformações e desafios. Os ciclos das nossas vidas serão encerrados, abrindo caminho para novos começos. Esperem um ano de muito movimento, mudanças intensas e o fortalecimento das forças que nos guiam. Xangô, o orixá da justiça, trará à tona a necessidade de equilíbrio e retidão em todas as áreas da vida. Este será um ano de procura pela justiça. Mas atenção; a justiça de Xangô é imparcial e verdadeira, o que significa que nem sempre a resposta será o que gostaríamos de ouvir. Será um momento de reflexão sobre as nossas atitudes e escolhas, exigindo ações alinhadas com o que é justo, tanto a nível pessoal, quanto a nível social. A diligência por causas humanitárias e pela verdade será uma constante, desafiando-nos a ser mais íntegros. Iansã, regente dos ventos e das tempestades, trará uma energia de força transformadora. Com a sua natureza guerreira e a força feminina, ela nos guiará por um caminho de mudança, revelando a importância de quebrar paradigmas e superar crenças limitantes. Iansã também é guardiã dos Eguns, simbolizando o ciclo eterno entre a vida e a morte, e lembrando-nos que, para que algo novo surja, é necessário que certos ciclos se fechem. Este será um ano de profundas transformações, onde muitos apegos serão desfeitos e as fraquezas expostas. Juntos, Xangô e Iansã convocam-nos a todos a repensarmos as nossas trajetórias, questionando o que precisamos mudar para o bem coletivo. Através da justiça divina e das transformações, seremos desafiados a refletir sobre o nosso papel no mundo e o impacto das nossas ações. As mudanças exigem coragem e a disposição para encarar novos desafios. Além disso, verdades ocultas virão à tona e lutas por um mundo mais justo e equilibrado serão intensificadas. Prevê-se também grandes mudanças climáticas ao longo deste ano, um reflexo da agitação e transformação que tomará conta do planeta. Lembre-se: “Depois da tempestade vem a bonança.” Que, após as dificuldades, possamos alcançar um período de paz e harmonia. Desejo a todos um Feliz Ano Novo, repleto de sabedoria, coragem e transformação! Tarologa Cristina A Equipa Chave Mística www.chavemistica.com

ostiral
Friday, in standard Basque.
It comes from ost(egun) iragale, meaning "the day after Thursday".
bariku
Friday, in western dialect.
Pliny the Elder in his Historia Naturalis, writes about a word the Carietes [Caristii] tribe used to refer to the second day of rest: Baracu. Bariku seems to come from there, maybe meaning "fasting day".

The Yorùbá community is a prominent Niger-Congo ethnic nationality inhabiting southwestern and north-central Nigeria, as well as southern and central Benin. Collectively, these territories are referred to as Yorubaland. The Yoruba population totals approximately 44 million individuals.
The majority of this demographic resides in Nigeria, where the Yorùbá account for 21% of the nation's population, according to the CIA World Factbook, rendering them one of Africa's most extensive ethnic nationalities. Most Yoruba individuals communicate in the Yoruba language, which features tonal characteristics and holds the distinction of being the Niger-Congo language with the most native speakers.
The Yorùbá share territorial boundaries with the closely affiliated Itsekiri to the southeast in the North West Niger delta, the Bariba to the northwest in Benin, the Nupe to the north, and the Ebira to the northeast in central Nigeria. To the east lie the Edo, Ẹsan, and Afemai groups in mid-western Nigeria. Adjacent to the Ebira and Edo groups are the related Igala people situated in the northeast, on the left bank of the Niger River. To the southwest are the Gbe-speaking Mahi, Egun, Fon, and Ewe, who border Yoruba communities in Benin and Togo. To the southeast are the Itsekiri, who inhabit the north-western extremity of the Niger delta and have maintained a distinct cultural identity despite ancestral ties to the Yoruba.
Substantial Yoruba populations reside in other West African countries, including Ghana, Ivory Coast, Liberia, and Sierra Leone. The Yoruba diaspora comprises two primary groupings:
Recent migrants, predominantly relocated to the United Kingdom and the United States following significant economic and political shifts between the 1960s and 1980s.
Descendants of those displaced by the Atlantic slave trade, now residing in Cuba, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Saint Lucia, Jamaica, Brazil, Grenada, and Trinidad and Tobago, among other nations.

🕊🤍 Happy All Saints Day 🕯💀
🕊🤍 This is our Thanksgiving, our Day Of The Dead, our family reunion. Traditionally, this is our day to visit & honor our Dead; tend to their graves, adorn them with flowers/candles/other offerings, then share a feast meal with music, sing, and dance - as we would any Black family cookout.
For those who could, this was done under the guise of Catholicism for our protection; in regions that were subjected indoctrination under this particular denomination. And for some, akin to Catholicism, All Saints is dedicated to welcoming & celebrating our Elevated Ancestors, those we may consider Saintly within our lineages, & Hoodoo Saints in general - especially those without [known] living descendants.
Whether you're tending to graves or altars, whether you're cooking a feast or a simple meal you can manage….may your Elevated Ancestors, your Big Egun be blessed. Ase. 💀🕯

It's the night before Para's wedding, and she and Granny Mayu are bonding with the royal babies.
Para's betrothed pops over the next morning to meet the little ones, only to get puked on by Tiakarete
Anyway
It's wedding time!
Both sets of immediate family are in attendance
If you've been following closely this might give you the ick, and not just because he's marrying in the suit that just got puked on. I'm with you there... but look they both REALLY wanted this. And there really aren't anyone else Para can marry. The other option would be his oldest son Aitor, and they had anti-chemistry as teens so, nah
idk why Manawaki and Zaindu are both floating there lol
Proud parents
... and parents to be.
I mean they both have had kids already but
and that's wher we leave em! Lastly let's take a look at how the Palace looks now because I made some changes since the first looka t it
i still consider it a wip. I consider everything a wip :P
