The Spring Equinox is on its way! We're getting into what this means for us as African people in the Southern Hemisphere. How does the Equinox affect us and what is the history behind it?
WOW!!!! I stopped celebrating many holidays because it just didn’t make sense to me. When did bunnies lay eggs, what does colorful eggs have to do with the Rising of Christ? When questions wasn’t answered, I stopped and figure it was another holiday made for money. I’m not going to get into Christmas right now. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
Its European folklore thats why in English you say they multiply like bunnies. in Spring especially in Europe everything comes to life and multiplies including Bunnies and in Pagan culture a rabbit is a symbol of fertility so many European tribes saw bunnies as a symbol of spring and worship. Christianity needing to convert pagans made Easter Jesus crucifixion a Holiday of again Death and rebirth. Catholics completely suppressed pagan influence and the use of rabbits in there churches while protestants began using Easter bunnies Easter eggs to attract atheists remaining pagans to church making a rabbit instead of Lamb a symbol of protestant American christianity. The easter bunny is pagan in origin. Israel did not have seasons in the European sense but only wet and dry seasons. Western christianity is amalgamation of European paganism and Semitic Eastern Judaism
Sis, I had those epiphanies too when I was much younger. Things didn’t make sense, holidays and celebrations didn’t add up. I stop celebrating, I am Afrocentric, I am a pan African, and I believe in ATR.
I am SO grateful for you! I feel like I’ve finally found the type of spirituality that I can connect to. So much appropriation in this space. African spirituality is so ROOTED. Decolonising our souls with your dedication and wisdom. THANK YOU!!! 🙏🏽 ❤❤
Oh my goddess!! Yes!! It’s time to realign to Natures Rhythms and regenerative cycles. The harmonic balance it would create in the collective would ripple out and accelerate our awakening. ❤ I lalalalove how your being interprets and expresses truth and light codes. 🌱💎🌱
What a good teacher! My sister we're very grateful for sharing such priceless African spiritual gems and contribute to the restoration of Africans to our rightful place on the planet. Zanemvula yolwazi oluletha inqubekelaphambili Zanemvula! Siyabonga
Minor implicit message that some might incorrectly receive. Egypt is great but it's not our climax. It's just one of the few that have been preserved well. Inzalo Yelanga inspired Egypt. Came WAAAAY before Egypt. Let's attempt to start ngenzalo yelanga
i mean, seasons vary from community to community based on where they are and how their land is watered. some communities start their year in February, and end the year in December
Funnily enough I learned about the origins of Easter egg and bunny after reading a jehovas witness pamphlet that said jws shouldn’t celebrate Easter because it’s actually a pagan holiday for spring and therefore idolatry
When are we africans of the diaspora supposed to celebrate our new year? I live in Europe so should I be celebrating in March with the northern equinox or celebrate in September with the equinox of my ancestors? Because that'll mean I'll celebrate it in the northern fall equinox
@@ataurusqueenofzion916 thank you! Well today it's the new year for me surely celebrating. I hope your celebrating spring or autumn today too ❤️ all love
*Since Christmas is pagan & unbiblical, Christians should too question the unbiblical Trinity & ahistorical church doctrine of the Incarnation which were also believed by the same pagans who celebrated the spring equinox.*
I'm interested to know your perspective of the Trans- Atlantic Slave Trade and the reunification of African Americans with their African ancestral connections.
I am way to late but also in time for the coming equinox. I always felt as if Easter must be in September. This was while I still went to Sunday school and I just see how it's all starting to make sense 🥺❤ I love and give thanks for your wonderful soul and wisdom
This is soooo amazing thank you....Totally resonates....I am connecting to my merkabah, or think i do. it has been a ten year journey. Knowing I am an energetic being now connected to source my whole life is changing. I am naturally being drawn to understanding the seasons. This sooooooooo makes sense to me. Biggest love and light to you too :)xoxoxoxoxoxox
hi my only question is you said spring equinox but then you also said September 23 so I'm confused the whole purpose of me commenting is I'm trying to find out when Africa celebrates the new year as I heard that in Africa the new year celebrated from the lunar cycle which is more natural than whatever these whites are doing. I am learning so much this year about where we come from how we don't know where we come from and how we can get back together and I am here for it next year I would like to not celebrate any European holidays and celebrate all of the African and natural holidays if that's a thing but basically I want to be more in tune with the earth and its cycles and how we can harnessed positive energies and influences from them I always thought it was weird that Christmas and the new year we're all in the darkest hours in the more research I do the more I see a lot about paganism and just on down that rabbit hole but that's not my intention so I don't dig too far into it I'm more looking for correction and getting on the correct path.
Its very inaccurate to say that the Mayan pyramids were "inspired" by Egyptian pyramids because they were not. These are two separate civilizations. Both buildings were, however, inspired by Divine connection.
If righteousness could be attained by works then Christ died for nothing! - Galatians 2:21.... I know the real reason for celebration this weekend; I hope & pray that by the grace & sovereignty of God, you would too ✝️
I love how you talk about other traditions! I’m not from African descent, but I love learning how other traditions celebrate solstices and equinoxes:) your voice is very pretty and your words are empowering ❤️
